From a friend’s suicide to a traumatic childbirth, the songs off davidwaxmuseum's Suz Slezak’s new solo album feel intimate enough to be diary entries, while hitting a universal nerve of human emotion.
From a friend’s suicide to a traumatic childbirth, the songs off Suz Slezak’s new solo album “Slezak is one half of Boston-grown Mexo-Americana duoA mother of two, her first solo album was a collection of lullabies. But in her sophomore solo release, the Wellesley alum works through a lifetime of hurdles: “Why Luke” is about a childhood friend who died by suicide. In “Take Me,” she writes of her traumatic 40-hour labor that ended in emergency C-section.
My mom worked in a hospital and my dad home-schooled us and milked the jersey cow every day. It felt normal [until] I came out into the world of ‘80s music and pop culture and realized I had no clue what was going on.It was you and your two brothers. What was your day-to-day life like? Now that I’ve been on mood-stabilizers, I’m so grateful for what they do to my brain. People are scared of taking psychiatric drugs, but to me, it’s not normal to have a brain that doesn’t want to live. I’m trying to switch thinking about medicines as this chemical toxic pollutant and instead just accepting: my brain does this unnatural thing, which is sometimes to get really slow, and sometimes to get super fast and totally off the deep-end in mania.
Then I got home from that trip and really crashed. I was cycling the next year, then had months of mania followed by months of serious depression. I couldn’t keep a job, I couldn’t pay rent. I was taken back home to my parents’ place, which of course, at 24, feels horrible. I couldn’t do the basics of being an adult. My parents took me to a psychiatrist and she diagnosed it right off the bat.
