Holding Absence presents "The Noble Art of Self-Destruction," a remarkable album on cassette that explores the journey of life and personal growth. With each breath, we evolve, shaped by our trials, triumphs, heartaches, and scars. The album's closing track, "The Angel in the Marble," features frontman Lucas Woodland, who reflects on how we are like a puzzle or a painting in progress. Each experience adds to our unique story, reminding us that life offers endless opportunities for change and growth, from moments of deep despair to the bliss of love. "The Noble Art of Self-Destruction" touches on the idea that we remain forever unfinished, with new layers and meanings waiting to be uncovered, serving as a powerful testament to the beauty of our ongoing journey.
