The pandemic break gave me the time to see that. Then myband broke up and my dad got sick. The only refuge I had was the studio.Im Your Vampire, Hamiltons most personal effort yet is a 10-song suite wreathed in tattered-flannel rock s salvation in isolation, as he sorts through thedarkness to find a pinpoint of light.It takes effort to not just be jaded as we ageto not look at the world in a hardened way,Hamilton says. Yeah, itsa dark, dark fucking time, lets make some lemonade.
