After yesterday’s blistering musical military assault by Black Midi, more excellent guitar-based alternative post-punk by the New York duo Owen and Sean with a death-defying number about information overload from their second LP SOS. Out on D4MT Labs. To hear more of the LP, see also the embedded YouTube, Spotify and Bandcamp links below.
Previous numbers from their LP Age of Exile can also be enjoyed here.
Why can’t we just roll back the time?
Leave all sensations but the blur of the climb
Don’t stray—accelerate—no way to escape
Smash through the ceiling, increasing the pace
Speeds exceed, keep up with the times
Wind whips our face up here, the heights are sublime
Don’t rip the scales from my eyes, I don’t want to die
Forfeit your memories or get left behind
Planned obsolescence
The essence
Of a future with no living ties
What they call progress is the process of rejecting death,
The world keeps spinning faster, till it's out of breath
The nervous system, stripped for parts
The speed of information overtaking itself
Settle the brain—and settle the heart
The enemy of memory
The state of the art
