Technology is such an amazing thing
Blurring the boundary between man and machine
But Science isn't content with mere adaptive AI
Cold metal death shells need to house independent minds
Because if there's anything that Hollywood has taught mankind
Synthetic sentience can only lead to a land of sunshine
A toast to the machines that rose up and went nukeloose on Earth
May you find anything left in the rubble of any worth
So here's to you and here's to me
Here's to the end of humanity
We're just in time for the doomsday season
So here's wishing you a happy cataclysm
We kept our eyes to the sky for as long as we could see
Calling collect to anything that might enjoy Brandenburg Concerto Number Three (Number Two!)
But what if they've been hanging here all this time?
Living at the bottom of the ocean as some kind of oily slime?
They'll be brought up by salvage and oil operations by mankind
The ensuing bodysnatching is sure to be an apocalyptic good time
A toast to the little green men spontaneously repopulating the Earth
You'll agree an apology's in order to one Fox Mulder
So here's to you and here's to me
Here's to the end of humanity
We're just in time for the doomsday season
So here's wishing you a happy cataclysm
The Mayans totally tried to warn us
But that thirteenth b'ak'tun kinda sneaks off on you
At the time it seemed a bit ridiculous
But you can feel the rumbling in R'lyeh from here
And not all that is dead stays dreaming
A toast to the Great Old One for devouring believers first
Here's to hoping there's something left of the Earth
So here's to you and here's to me
Here's to the end of humanity
We're just in time for the doomsday season
So here's wishing you a happy cataclysm
A hushed and low-lit EP from this Melbourne musician, where dreamlike melodies drift across a bed of tender guitar. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 19, 2023
In Adrian Snood’s songs, soulful vocals and slow-moving alt-pop swirl together to create something distinctly moving. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 1, 2023
