“I'm not interested in just making music, I'm interested in telling you a story through multiple mediums” -Saffron
So much of modern music is just about the music, and less about telling a story. Its something the industry has really put on the back-burner for years now. MyFloralFuture sees the consumers want for story to relate to and offer it like few can.

Who is MyFloralFuture
The Richmond VA based one man metalcore and post-hardcore band MyFloralFuture, fronted by Saffron, dives into the darkest corners of humanity with the aim to bring meaningful art to audiences out of his personal suffering.
"Y’know I make post-hardcore not only because I love the genre, but because when I sat down it's what creatively poured out of me. I have no interest in limiting my creativity in any way shape or form, musically or otherwise. So long as the medium gives me the ability to convey my message in a way that is both intentional and rings true to those who want to be a part of the experience," says Saffron. "Creative complacency leads to boredom and making the same album over and over and over again. I'm not interested in just making music, I'm interested in telling you a story through multiple mediums. There is no rulebook for that"
"Stab Wounds" the band's first release marries massive guitar and bass with ethereal electronics. Aggressive, desperate screaming are combined with soft somber hooks and melodies. "Technology has evolved so much over the last few years and so much of electronica, hip hop, and pop tropes can be mixed into a hardcore song to make it not only Soul crushingly heavy, but to make it dynamic and unique"
The first single of a upcoming EP with a planned release in late October 2020 encapsulates being trapped - by those around you, those in power, and ultimately by yourself. "I was trapped for years in an oppressive system that I only made worse. I did manage to come out the other side as a stronger better person," he states. "Still, I've only just started the heavy lifting, and I'm gonna need a lot of time and work to feel like I can really put this behind me. I also know that some of it I won’t be able to, it will stay with me. The least I can do is write through it and take you with me as I’m sure so many others have felt like I have. Maybe I can offer some peace, maybe not. I just hope I can deliver a sense of solidarity."
