Dylan Thomas / Bitter Bitter is the first song off of the recently released "Attendre et Espérer" album. The song shaped by his father's death in 2015. Of the song Howard expresses:
"Late in the summer of 2015 my father left. Nobody knows where the leaving go.
Seeing death so close, I began–as many do–to see death everywhere. I saw him in distant wars & with starving children, with the still-born baby & the teenage suicide, indiscriminately picking from the old and the young. Present in the daily newspaper and in ancient myths, the question of every scripture and a pulsing undertone of the romantic poets.
Though there is nothing to say that is yet unsaid, there is comfort in the saying."
