[@PixelPariah]

Such an underrated band it's almost criminal.

I don't believe in miracles But I believe in you.

[@wadeq926]

I am your gardener

[@norment6846]

I love you Emily Norment.

I was talking to Schyular and the gang at their last concert. Heavy Fruit is the unofficial 4th title to this trilogy, and he wanted to write to so cryptically only true fans would hear it. I'm spilling the beans. Heavy Fruit is the epilogue.

And Now we have "The Garden".

[@chronical]

OMg why am i finding about this today

[@surgery318]

Should add Heavy Fruit to this! China White II still gives me the chills. Such a sinister guitar piece. The end is especially good, the music slows down and gives an impression of impending suffocation and death as the gardener is closing in on her. Thanks for putting this together.

Marc L every time I tune into II I get serious goosebumps.

[@AHWessel]

15 Years later and I just noticed the refrain from China White I comes from Blind Melon "No Rain".... Awesome.

[@aliciaserrano]

The Best one is III.. I just Love it so much

[@derekrooney140]

sick i was looking for exactly this all 3, thank you

[@warmonger8799]

awesome

[@mckenziecole1131]

I'm having a hard time trying to find the meaning of these songs. I feel like it could go so many ways. beautiful regardless. I love this trilogy so much

[@joebell486]

McKenzie Cole I believe it's open to interpretation. beauty is in the eyes of the beholder

[@conorfinn1109]

My theory is kinda fucked up, but it’s a theory. I think the gardener is deranged and doesn’t want to lose the people who are close to him, so he kills them and plants them in his garden, thinking that they’ll grow back and be with him forever once it rains

[@flickmybiscuit]

@@conorfinn1109 Goddamn, dude. Never would have thought of anything like that. Love it. It's funny how all these words of ours are left to interpretation.

[@undeadspaghetti]

@@conorfinn1109 pretty sure that is what it's about. i've been listening to HIL for like idk, 15 years? the bands constant use of fables, childrens stories, dark beauty, etc. the story of china white is very reminiscent of themes used in Salmon Rushdie's "Haroun and the Sea of Stories", which is also about death, etc, but portrayed with child like wonder.

[@chronical]

ohh man thank you so much for putting them al together !!!!

[@nathanielharrison7021]

i thought id never see the day!

[@jeffyarborough9244]

Thank you for this!!

[@jaycieortiz6882]

so on point...

[@norment6846]

I picked this rose for you ; )

[@emilyrl840]

I love you. So much.

[@zakkwolfe1850]

Either they decorated for Christmas early or they're dead... I wonder if that's a prequel to the China white trilogy.

[@conorfinn1109]

Zakk Wolfe yeah, I think so. It even directly mentions the gardener

[@anthonyferguson3651]

@@conorfinn1109 Dude I've never thought of that until you said it...... they just might be mad geniuses
