The Making Of Cataclasm, Episode 1: Lásabrjótur

Cat"a*clasm\ n. A breaking asunder; a violent disruption.

At the beginning of this year I started feeling an intense dissatisfaction with where I was creatively. I felt stifled from being so deep in the music industry - felt so much pressure to be so many things I wasn't. I decided to get away for a month and a half to a cabin in the remote Icelandic village of Bildudalur, population 65, to intensively write and record the skeleton for my debut album. What I returned with was more than I could have dreamed of, and is by far the greatest creative accomplishment of my life so far.
