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?

full_context: Document 1: Singer-songwriter: Singer-songwriters are musicians who write, compose, and perform their own musical material, including lyrics and melodies.
Document 2: Songwriter: 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.

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.

Document 6: Musical composition: Musical composition can refer to an original piece of music, either a song or an instrumental music piece, the structure of a musical piece, or the process of creating or writing a new song or piece of music. People who create new compositions are called composers in classical music. In popular music and traditional music, the creators of new songs are usually called songwriters; with songs, the person who writes new words for a song is the lyricist. "Composition" is the act or practice of creating a song or other piece of music. In many cultures, including Western classical music, the act of composing typically includes the creation of music notation, such as a sheet music "score", which is then performed by the composer or by other instrumental musicians or singers. In popular music and traditional music, songwriting may involve the creation of a basic outline of the song, called the lead sheet, which sets out the melody, lyrics and chord progression. In classical music, orchestration (choosing the instruments of a large music ensemble such as an orchestra which will play the different parts of music, such as the melody, accompaniment, countermelody, bassline and so on) is typically done by the composer, but in musical theatre and in pop music, songwriters may hire an arranger to do the orchestration. In some cases, a pop or traditional songwriter may not use written notation at all, and instead compose the song in her mind and then play, sing and/or record it from memory. In jazz and popular music, notable sound recordings by influential performers are given the weight that written or printed scores play in classical music.

Document 8: Burt Bacharach: Burt Freeman Bacharach ( ; born May 12, 1928) is an American composer, songwriter, record producer, pianist, and singer who has composed hundreds of popular hit songs from the late 1950s through the 1980s, many in collaboration with popular lyricist Hal David. A six-time Grammy Award winner and three-time Academy Award winner, Bacharach's songs have been recorded by more than 1,000 different artists. s of 2014 , he had written 73 US and 52 UK Top 40 hits.

Document 9: Women in music: Women in music describes the role of women as composers, songwriters, instrumental performers, singers, conductors, music scholars, music educators, music critics/music journalists and other musical professions. As well, it describes music movements (e.g., women's music, which is music written and performed by women for women), events and genres related to women, women's issues and feminism. In the 2010s, while women comprise a significant proportion of popular music and classical music singers, and a significant proportion of songwriters (many of them being singer-songwriters), there are few women record producers, rock critics and rock instrumentalists. Notable women artists in pop, such as Bjork and Lady Gaga have commented about sexism and gender discrimination in the music industry. In classical music, although there have been a huge number of women composers from the Medieval period to the present day, women composers are significantly underrepresented in the commonly performed classical music repertoire, music history textbooks and music encyclopedias; for example, in the "Concise Oxford History of Music", Clara Schumann is one of the only female composers who is mentioned.

Vasquez commented on the album in an interview with "Fact Magazine", "The first LP was more spontaneous and less focused mainly because the songs were never intended to reach the public’s ears. Each song was just a different way to reach inside myself and pull out memories from the past." The album was well received upon its release.

There have also been instances where a film actor has acquired a signature song by giving a popular vocal performance in a feature. Signature songs can be the result of spontaneous public identification, or a marketing tool developed by the music industry to promote artists, sell their recordings, and develop a fan base.

Document 15: The Manson Family Album: The Manson Family Album is the first studio recording by American rock band Marilyn Manson. It is a precursor to the band's debut studio album, 1994's "Portrait of an American Family". It was produced by Roli Mosimann, and is composed of original takes and mixes of songs which would later be found on their debut. However, the band's eponymous vocalist was unhappy with Mosimann's production, claiming it was too "smoothed and polished", and poorly representative of the band's established sound. The majority of songs on "The Manson Family Album" were later re-recorded or remixed with Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor at the Record Plant in Los Angeles. The album's title is a double entendre; it also relates to the commune of cult leader Charles Manson.
