In “Fear of God” Dominic Sen offers a vivid portrait of religious trauma and how it can affect and influence romantic and less than romantic relationships. The video and its visuals are like a mid-1990s alternative rock video including the out of focus moments lends itself well to its reflective yet confessional tone. But Sen’s vocals are clear though slightly distorted with a touch of processing and pitch shifting. The lyrics are more a straight narrative than a traditional song form giving it a dreamlike yet immediate quality. Perhaps unintentionally the song is reminiscent of Alanis Morissette with a world music flavor in the beats and string melody. Sen’s words recall raw memories but her delivery softens that blow like a powerful memory that one can recall with the intensity of that moment but speak to it through the filter of a processed memory that was a part of the path that brought you to where you are today.
