Question: Who is the professional who is paid to write lyrics and melodies for songs who write the first full-length studio recording from American post-punk band The Soft Moon?
Context: Total Decay is an EP from American post-punk band The Soft Moon.  It was released on November 7, 2011 through Captured Tracks.  In an interview with "The Bay Bridged", frontman Luis Vasquez characterized the EP as sonically "more radical in terms of expression and versatility" than the groups prior record.  Speaking with "Fact Magazine", Vasquez explains ""Total Decay" was a chance for me to write something more radical and express some versatility without the pressure that comes with writing a full-length".  The EP currently holds the score of "74" on the aggregate review site Metacritic, indicating "generally favorable reviews" by music critics. A songwriter is a professional who is paid to write lyrics and melodies for songs, typically for a popular music genre such as rock or country music.  A songwriter can also be called a composer, although the latter term tends to be used mainly for individuals from the classical music genre.  The pressure from the music industry to produce popular hits means that songwriting is often an activity for which the tasks are distributed between a number of people.  For example, a songwriter who excels at writing lyrics might be paired with a songwriter with the task of creating original melodies.  Pop songs may be written by group members from the band or by staff writers – songwriters directly employed by music publishers.  Some songwriters serve as their own music publishers, while others have outside publishers. Deeper is the third full-length studio recording from American post-punk band The Soft Moon.

Say Goodnight, Sleep Alone is the first full-length album from Ellison, released in 2006.  Using Josh Hill's basement as their recording studio, the album came together in three months.  The band chose four songs from the EP and developed seven new songs in the studio.  Each band member had equal creative input, allowing the songs to evolve throughout the recording process.  Hill explains, "Generally I write a song and bring it to Mitch, J.D., and Ian so they can write their own parts.  But with a couple of the new songs, the structure became a collaborative effort and these turned out to be some of my favorite Ellison songs."
