Hey Dev, in case you're reading...
I read your comments on the "story" that Deconstruction tells and just when I thought I couldn't look forward to this album any more than I already did, now I see myself going over the line into zealot territory where I'm going to be flagging down random motorists and pedestrians and trying to get them to listen to this album and apply the "lessons learned" to their own lives...!
I recently went through my own personal "deconstruction" last year, except for me it was the realization that I had been so "programmed" (by parents, exes, peers, society in general) as to what I am supposed to want to do and want to be and want to have that I had completely lost sight of who I really was, what I really liked and didn't like, and what I wanted to do with my life, and that unconscious conflict had been the real hidden cause of several pretty severe mental breakdowns (the life-changing kind, not just the "had a bad week" kind). So, inspired by the term "deconstruction" and what at the time I thought it might mean, I stripped everything down (in terms of perspective, etc) to a child-like quality, and essentially rebooted my entire outlook on life. Now things that used to drive me nuts don't bother me, and I'm no longer wasting valuable time doing things that have no meaning for me and instead (trying) to spend that time doing things that do matter and have meaning.
Even though I haven't even heard your album yet (except for the YouTube stuff), and even though your Deconstruction story is completely different, I still feel like I need to give you credit for the spark that set me on that journey. So, go off to whatever you're about to do knowing that not only are you an incredible musician, but that you have helped some of your fans in ways that you probably never thought possible, just by being who you are and doing what you do!
Cheers!
