Myth Side One - Blog Posts

I'm callin' it.

Myth is loss of self.

I mean "Sasha the waves forgotten, they are part of the sea" they've forgotton they are part of the sea, they have forgotton a part of themself or in other words lost it. "And the stranger was happy because he knew who he was, and the choirmaster was happy because she knew who she was." And again they know who they are implying that there was a time when they didn't, implying they forgot, implying that they lost themselves. My final point is that when brownly wrote the stories of saint sasha causing the island to become a tourist atttraction, all the people and traditions left. Saint Sasha lost itself.

Thank you for coming to my easily disprovable tedtalk.

i'm not saying that my four albums are each based on a panel of loss, i'm just saying that if they *were* this is how i'd tell you

If you genuinely interpreted it with your whole heart, congratulations, you did it right. There is no way to enjoy art wrong. Let me say that again for the people in the back - THERE. IS. NO. WAY. TO. ENJOY. ART. WRONG.

I'm too tired to have smart words on this, so I'm hoping this post finds somebody who does.

i keep trying to listen to myth by the narcissist cookbook but i’m so worried about doing it wrong somehow because everyone on here seems to love it and like what if i don’t ??? so i have been just avoiding listening to it out of that fear and it sucks because i want to have fun with you guys but unfortunately there is a collection of demons in my brain and their leader is called ocd

You have instantly become my favourite person in the world.

COME SING WITH ME is a lyric game setting, a divinatory map, and a secret third thing. Inspired by (and made to explore) the album MYTH by @narcissistcookbook

It contains a map of the island of St. Sasha; a stolen songbook full of lyrics, curated by instinct; game tokens, with little instructions for their use; and the other stolen songbook scrawling with handwritten notes.

Created for the Tiny World TTRPG Jam.

Mx. Cookbook, I've just listened to your new album and it was glorious and beautiful and like nothing I've ever heard before in my life and I adore it to pieces, but also what in the actual fuck just happened

MYTH: Side Two is available everywhere on January 7th 2025

MYTH: Side One is available everywhere right now

the response to my niche wee horror album has been so wonderful, thank you everyone who has gotten in touch to gush about it 💜

love this album so much!! i've been obsessed with the folklore of st sasha about as long as i can remember, it's endlessly fascinating. the whole motif of the forest that never existed haunts me to this day, and i think "the girl who painted death" might be one of my all-time favourite fairy tales. as for the elephant in the room... personally, i'm of the camp that david brownley was killed by a shark that was anomalously far north, but then that doesn't explain how he was found so far inland, and those papers... if only they hadn't been burned, maybe we might have some better insights into what really happened </3 anyway, you've done an amazing job bringing st sasha lore it to light for a wider audience! weird that it isn't already more popular. aight, i'm gonna go rewatch goncharov for the thousandth time.

we new albuming out here

this is a concept i've had kicking around for longer than i care to admit. i'm so hyped to get this out of my brain and into your headphones
