I absolutely love NYD and Ashley Costello. The Malevolence album is awesome. I know that the last year of Ashley's personal life was shitty and I feel really bad for her. However, the result is an amazing album. The album is full of emotion and you can tell that Ashley put a lot into the songs and lyrics. I wish the absolute best for Ashley and the whole NYD band and crew. When the music video for "Malevolence" came out I spent probably two hours watching it over and over again, it's so good. I really hope NYD continues to gain popularity and produce more amazing albums.
