English singer-songwriter Chris Spurgeon goes through a wide of array of emotions on Come Into My Darkness, the first album by his one-man project Zebra Crossing Sounds. Tapping into his own demons and the current state of planet Earth as a whole, he finds himself on the edge of a breakdown, trying to cope by both acoustic folk songs (Unplug & Rewind, Confide in Me) and all-out rockers (The World is on Fire).
He is his own backing vocalist, so he did not have to worry about straying off-pitch. Come Into My Darkness is a 101 for getting the sound right for intense bedroom lo-fi recordings. It is a safe place for both the artist and the listener, sharing an almost palpable hurt in search for a way out.
Come Into My Darkness is a self-released album. Buy it from his website.
