lyrics
For this one, DS sent me some immense sounds in the doomy keyboard styled noises, and it immediately felt right as the closing track, as the sort of twist at the end of the tale, in sonics and potential in the story.... so, if you like doom, and if you like noise, and if you like robots, and stories of a comic book-esque nature, then maybe you will like this.
In context with the story, in my mind, the twist at the end is that the robots take over, and the humans are their slaves, but by choice because the progression nature of humanity so far in the future realises they were the better option to follow and then, in time, work alongside. (Is this my optimistic, always-trying-to-find-something-positive-amongst-the-shit nature coming through? Or does this just make me naive at best?).
Just as all harmony is reached, something bigger and more vicious in its collective comes along from a distant planet and literally devours all trace of both, taking massive chunks of the planet away at the same time. Millions of years of evolution is undone in moments, and then they disappear back up into the skies, leaving nothing but devastation in their wake.
