Listening to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TheGreyingMA\/\">The Greying<\/a><\/strong>, a Cape Cod\/South Shore-based metal\/hardcore band (imagine that), is a visceral experience. But these guys are no literary slouches. They just <em>know<\/em> their subject matter, and this isn&#8217;t the kind of shit that can be properly expressed in a polite pop song. And that is why they&#8217;ve blessed us with their <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thegreying.bandcamp.com\/\">Cognitive Dissonance EP<\/a><\/strong>. It was written by singer\/songwriter Ryan Meehan, as a way to cope with his bipolar diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 100%; height: 120px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bandcamp.com\/EmbeddedPlayer\/album=3638655356\/size=large\/bgcol=ffffff\/linkcol=0687f5\/tracklist=false\/artwork=small\/transparent=true\/\" seamless><a href=\"http:\/\/thegreying.bandcamp.com\/album\/cognitive-dissonance-ep\">Cognitive Dissonance EP by The Greying<\/a><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Each of the five tracks focuses on a particular aspect of this bone-crippling, soul-destroying illness. The desperate rantings of singer Ryan Meehan&#8217;s exquisite suffering is driven hard by a raucous racket courtesy of Robert Carlson (guitars), Derrick Darmody (bass) and Noah deVeer (drums).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Panic&#8221; starts out slow and menacing, snarling and grinding its teeth. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Panic comes in droves and circles &#8217;round the carrion<br \/>\nmemories that fester in the background.<br \/>\nSuffocate on words I should have spoken. <br \/>\nSadness turns to rage. <br \/>\nI am broken.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Regenerate&#8221; speaks (screams) of the difficult process of working through the pain in search of healing, and choosing life, however excruciating, over suicide.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Shed your skin<br \/>\nDestroy what\u2019s underneath <br \/>\nRegenerate <br \/>\nKill what you can\u2019t create <br \/>\nSeparate reality from fate <br \/>\nI must learn to settle for myself <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;I must learn to settle for myself.&#8221; Amazing. It&#8217;s all about self-acceptance, which seems like such an easy, straightforward thing, but lordy, it&#8217;s not.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Demons Run&#8221; is a charming little ditty about confronting the devil within and the demons without, while one questions\/confronts God. Nathan Calcagno of Regime lends his bone-chilling growl for multi-dimensional effect.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>No promises of damnation <br \/>\nWretched hearts go screaming toward the void regardless<br \/>\nWatch the world fall through the hour glass<br \/>\nDemons run when you relinquish hell <\/p>\n<p>Lord forgive me. I&#8217;ve done nothing.<br \/>\nLived a life in fear your hand would come to strike me down. <br \/>\nFelt the fault break with shepards spewing hate <br \/>\nLeft the herd before the sickness caught me.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There&#8217;s something in there as well about our current political climate, but I won&#8217;t go there. Nope.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dissociate&#8221; is about running away from reality and not confronting your fears, while &#8220;Paranoia&#8221; is about how one tries to cope with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. One is left wondering if, at times, the &#8220;cure&#8221; might be just as bad as the illness. &#8220;Dissociate&#8221; closes with a harrowing scream that ends in a sardonic chuckle. If that isn&#8217;t the perfect metaphor for living with bipolar disorder, whether it&#8217;s your own or a loved one&#8217;s, I don&#8217;t know what is.<\/p>\n<p><a
