Mixing elements of indie rock, shoegaze, and gothic folk, Eden is blending genres to make what she and her collaborator Sumner Erhard affectionately call fuzz folk. It is music for walking home alone to after a party, doom scrolling til the sun comes up, and then driving around your abandoned hometown pretending you're actually going to call your high school best friend. This feeling manifests across 11 tracks on Eden's new LP titled forget what makes it glow. The album evokes real life horror as it channels the not so great memories of religion, nostalgia, love and loss.
"fuzz folk"

"beautiful and unnerving" - HighClouds
"evolves from folk-based intimacy to textured shoegaze bliss...gorgeous" - Obscure Sound
The intimacy remains, but Eden takes her sound to ethereal heights...lush and intoxicating vocals shine through" - The Revue
"capture a lot of the complexities of being human in musical form...feels timeless" - Taste Culture
"crushing and heartfelt...genuine tracks that make you feel like she is playing for an audience of one."

Haunted
Isadora Eden Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Some days it's all in my head
Did you know there's a part
Of the road I can't go
Down anymore
And it didn't make me stronger
I just panic at
The grocery store
I'm so angry that you think I would
Everything's haunted somehow
And I wish that I could say I wish you well
Sometimes I don't think I've changed at all
Midnight feels the same as noon
I'm waiting but I don't know what for
I wanna fast forward but I
Just keep starting over
Wanna drive by all my friends houses
And tell them you were wrong
But it's not your song
I don't care if you wanna talk now
I'm so angry that you think I would
Everything's haunted somehow
And I wish that I could say I wish you well
Sometimes I don't think I've changed at all
Sometimes I don't think I've changed at all
Sometimes I don't think I've changed at all
In these lyrics, Isadora Eden expresses a complex mix of emotions towards someone who has caused her pain and frustration. She admits to feeling moments of intense anger towards this person, even going as far as to think about harming them. However, she also acknowledges that these thoughts are only in her head and do not reflect her true intentions.
There is a part of her past, symbolized by the road she mentions, that she can no longer revisit due to the pain it holds. This experience has not made her stronger, but rather has left her with anxiety and panic that even affects her daily tasks like going to the grocery store. The haunting memories of this painful event seem to be all-consuming and prevent her from moving on.
Isadora confesses that she doesn't care if this person wants to talk now because she is still filled with anger towards them. She believes that everything around her is somehow haunted, perhaps by the lingering presence of this person or the memories they left behind. Despite wishing she could genuinely say she wishes them well, deep down, she struggles to find forgiveness and closure.
In the final verse, Isadora reflects on her own personal growth, or lack thereof. She admits that sometimes she feels like she hasn't changed at all, as if time has stood still for her. She experiences uncertainty and restlessness, yearning for a way to fast forward through her emotions and start afresh. She also contemplates reaching out to her friends and proving that this person was wrong about her, but realizes that this battle is not something they need to be involved in. Ultimately, the lyrics convey a sense of inner turmoil and the struggle to let go of past pain and move forward in life.
