My Malady is a powerful compilation album featuring a range of artists exploring themes of struggle, pain, and healing. The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful track "Broken" by singer-songwriter Emma Lee, which sets the tone for the rest of the record. Each song tells a different story of personal hardship, from the raw emotion of "Wounds" by folk duo The Milk Carton Kids, to the cathartic release of "Let It Out" by indie rockers The National Parks. The production on My Malady is consistently strong, with each track showcasing the unique talents of its respective artist. Standout moments include the soulful vocals of R&B singer Samm Henshaw on "Only One to Blame," and the heartbreaking lyrics of "Say Goodbye" by alt-country group The Lone Bellow. My Malady is a deeply moving and thought-provoking album that will resonate with anyone who has experienced pain and hardship. It's a testament to the power of music to heal and inspire, and a must-listen for fans of indie, folk, and alternative rock.

we have manifested sound into splintered radial genesis and still, the noise breeds gangrene
