Rainy regret-tinged evenings, like this one, dominate holy spirit social club. last night concerns the final night he spent with a friend, considering the ensuing loneliness that awaits. While change finds him on the streets of Yorkshire, revisiting his family home and wondering whether he had fulfilled his fathers desire for him to become a man – a sore point that resurfaces again and again on holy spirit social club.

Whilst elkyn isnt exactly kind to himself on holy spirit social club, it does see him lift a monumental weight from his shoulders. In elkyns words, its an interim into writing nicer songs and being nicer to myself.
