  "account": "Next week, the Philly musician Jacob Brunner is set to release the third album under the Strawberry Hands moniker. Brunner has previously teased the album with the singles \"Dream Of Water\" and \"What Plant Jumps Over Me?\" Today, he is sharing the final track of the project, \"Song Of Descent.\"\n\nBrunner describes \"Song Of Descent\" as emerging from a period of profound depression, a report from the other side while still enveloped in the gloom of the underworld. After his arduous journey, he finds solace in the sober realization that his descent from a bridge or into hell has transformed into a more productive descent into the unconscious. Here, the wisdom of impermanence and uncertainty loosens his grip.\n\nThe song opens hauntingly, gradually ascending into an almost sacred, psalm-like place by its conclusion. The eerie atmosphere is heightened by a music video directed by Joseph Paul Alvarado, featuring pig masks and flames. \"Song Of Descent\" will be released on 9/18 via Otherly Love. This week's most important music stories are juxtaposed with the least important music memes.",
