about

‘Graffiti Vitamins’ was a song developed from the writings of an Onculiey prison inmate, who had been sentenced to death for the bombing of an Imperial Munitions depot. At least a dozen brave Imperial soldiers were killed. The bomber took up poetry during his imprisonment and is said to have written exclusively on his toilet paper as he was not given any other materials. The story goes that these poems were smuggled out to his family members, and after some time a local Onculiey musician decided to take these scribblings and write them as a song.

A strong sentiment against the Peace Enforcers comes through in this song; The bitter terrorist clearly did not agree with the enforcement of Imperial civility in his land. An example was made of this man, to discourage participation in the revolution.

lyrics

She smells your cigarette
You’re low fidelity
Nothing like how I wanted to sing the silver melody
She touched your lips
They decayed
It’s ok was
Just another life
Of soldiers in love
In a basement round the corner
Pigs sit in the gloom
Tryna resurrect the soul of the blues
Sad attempt
Missing focus and clarity
On monsters and hilarity
Flowers blooming in the gutter
They’re dead already
Lights through the window
Dripping towards her fingertips
Worms grow the herbs
I read the script and wait
White robes learn the words
Gets beaten soaked in blue
Passersby lick pig soles
Think it’s true
With a lens overhead
Piggies watching you
I make my move
From the empty lot across the street
I see you keep your grips
I wanna see you lose
Wanna see you lose
Wanna see you lose

Cosmic Surgery
by neat beats

Off the beaten path trip-hop that clearly demonstrates the emotive power of great instrumentation and production. It's more than just neat, though it is also neat. Max McCargar

Something Died in the Wall
by Occult Modem Settings

Rich and warm distortion makes this ambient noise/post-industrial album feel more inviting than one might initially expect. A lesson in immersion. Max McCargar

Icosahedron
by Zhea Erose

Maximalist in structure and content, but without feeling self indulgent. Skillfully balancing all the different compositional, production, and thematic elements into a cohesive whole. Max McCargar
