  9. Objective: to fix all mundane song bios
  10.  
  11. Bio's are usually somewhere between 1-3 paragraphs. Bio's usually included the following;
  12.  
  13. Song bio
  14. - Opening sentence which summarises the angle/basis of the song
  15. - The genre, description of the song (including if it differs from the usual category of music)
  16. - Any facts regarding how/when/why the song was made or intentions of said song
  17. - Where it fits in the context of an artists career. Popularity, controversy? Single song succession [include excerpts from interviews, media outlets].
  18.  
  19. Additional Bio
  20. - Does the song make use of enjambment to lead up songs on the album? For example; an album which has a certain angle and each song links up to the neighbouring songs.
  21.  
  22. Artist: Ghost Atlas
  23. Album: All Is In Sync, And There's Nothing Left To Sing About"
  24.  
  25. Track 1: Cry Wolf
  26. *Cry Wolf* is the introductory single of *Ghost Atlas'* third studio album, *All Is In Sync, And There's Nothing Left To Sing About*. /Ghost Atlas\ is an unsigned band which is independently run by *Jesse Cash*, who is the Soft Vocalist in popular metalcore band *ERRA*. After an eleven month break, the /Ghost Atlas\ *Facebook page* swiftly changed the profile picture and then announced an upcoming album and released /Ghost Atlas\ as a debut single to advertise their new album.
  27.  
  28. /Cry Wolf\ adapts to a protagonist who is evidently going through a breakdown and self-harming or punishing their body in ways which are not disclosed but evidence points to alcohol [Quote 1/2]
  29.  
  30. > I walk along the edge and flirt with how deep I can go
  31. > I don't think my mind survived, my spirit took a dive
  32.  
  33. /Cry Wolf\ is described as experimental post-hardcore. There is a high use of electric guitars with stunning riffs which complement *Jesse's* talented voice. The instruments in this song create a melody which catches and bonds with *Jesse's* nonchalant vocals. The song has amassed (as of 18/12/2017) a total of 85,000 views. Making it their ~fourth~ most popular song on their *YouTube*.
  34.  
  35. Track 2: Vertigo
  36.  
  37. *Vertigo* is the subsequent song in *Ghost Atlas'* third studio album, *All Is In Sync, And There's Nothing Left To Sing About*. /Ghost Atlas\ is an unsigned band which is independently run by *Jesse Cash*, who is the Soft Vocalist in popular metalcore band *ERRA*.
  38.  
  39. The song features someone who is being let down by someone important but keeps on returning back to them which ultimately leads to the subject being let down again. The feature of the song also begins to realise that he is better off on his own [Quote 1/2] but struggles to find the strength to actually stay away [Quote 3].
  40.  
  41. > Take my hand so you can drag me under
  42. > Drain my time so I can always wonder
  43. > I have trekked a long road only to turn around and discover a shortcut
  44.  
  45. *Vertigo*, much like *Cry Wolf*, is described as post-hardcore. This song features more of Jesse's poetic process and slightly numbs down the severity of the instrumentals until the instrumental break/solo nearing the end. /Vertigo\ has reached 5.600 views (as of 18/12/2017) on their YouTube channel over the past month. Making it the ~seventh~ most popular song from the album. /Vertigo\ was also marked as a notable track from itDjents review. It is also the ~third~ most popular song on *LAST.FM*.
