HAZ. / ALBUM / 07 DECEMBER 2024
LIMERENCE
An eight track passage through obsession, grief, addiction and the first return of faith.
THE ALBUM STORY
THE DARKEST HOUR BECAME THE TURNING POINT.
“Limerence caught me at a time when I had no faith, a passive suicidal mind and no hope. By Palinode, Ezekiel and Emergency, I had found God, or at least I was searching for Jesus. You can hear it in the music. The energy, the passion and the sound change.”
The album began after the end of a relationship Haz. believed in completely. Learning that the relationship had never been as honest as he thought left him unable to let go. Limerence became the clearest word for that fixation and for the grief that followed it.
Created across seven months, the record captures a real change in direction. Its earliest songs sit inside hopelessness, drug addiction and substance abuse. After a near fatal overdose in July 2024, Haz. experienced a state of conviction and felt an urgent need to get up, change and keep moving. Faith begins to surface as the album progresses.
The sequence follows the stages of grief from attachment to separation, relapse, prayer and clarity. Callback’s closing outro loops back into Codependent by design. The ending acknowledges that the feeling can return, whether the loss comes from a partner, a friendship or any relationship that once felt impossible to release.
