SHARDS OF LEO - Urgent

 

Urgent is the debut single of SHARDS OF LEO, an one man band which is the creation of british musician Louis Forsyth. Luis wrote, played, mixed and produced all the music in this work. Urgent consists of three songs discussing 3 different parts of raw humanity; mental health, sexual lust, and war/violence. 

Leo is about how depression and other mental health issues, can make you lose your sense of self, and how damaging being in that place can be not only to yourself, but your loved ones. Lady in black explores sex and sexuality. It is about the raw lust you feel, and how that isn't something that should be taboo and demonized, because it's part of humanity, and something we should enjoy and celebrate. Battleborn is the last track, and is about violence and war. While it absolutely does not promote the use of violence in itself, it is based on the history of humanity and how coming together can be used to overcome oppressors.

The music is a mix of hard rock guitar riffs inspired from Royal Blood, to Led Zeppelin, to Rage Against the Machine, with modern big beats, and lyrics and vocal melodies which are designed to cut through to what it means to be a human.
