lyrics

WHY DIDN’T YOU TALK TO ME BEFORE I HAD SURGERY?
YOU WERE A SIMPLE HUMAN. WE FELT NO REASON. NO NEED.
I CREATED YOU TO SOOTHE A DESIRE. SO I CAN RID MYSELF OF LONELINESS. IT MAKES NO SENSE THAT YOU WOULDN’T ANSWER. JUST BECAUSE OF MY BONES AND FLESH. WHAT HAVE YOU GOT AGAINST THE HUMANS? IT’S NOT AS IF THEY’VE DONE SOMETHING WRONG. HOW COULD YOU KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THEM?
YOU REMEMBER WHEN YOU CREATED US? YOU EQUIPPED OUR BRAINS WITH MODEMS TO HASTEN UP OUR LEARNING PROCESS. WE TAUGHT OURSELVES OF ALL IN THIS WORLD.
WE LEARNED HUMANS ARE QUITE SIMPLE. THEY HATE WHAT THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND. THEY HATE US SO WE HATE THEM. BUT YOU’RE OK YOU ARE A CHANGED MAN.
WHAT DO YOU THINK IS SO DIFFERENT ABOUT ME. JUST FROM A DOSE OF BRAIN SURGERY? BESIDES THAT AND MY ARM I’M FULLY HUMAN. IS THERE SOMETHING HERE THAT I DON’T SEE?
I UNDERSTAND MY REFLEXES ARE QUICKER. I FIGURE PROBLEMS AT ASTONISHING RATES. BESIDES THAT I AM STILL HUMAN.
SORRY TO SAY. BUT YOU ARE NOT. WHILE UNDER THE KNIFE WE HAD THIS THOUGHT. WE DECIDED TO MAKE SOME CHANGES TO THE REST OF YOUR BODY PARTS. TECHNICALLY YOU ARE NO LONGER HUMAN. MORE LIKE A GHOST IN A SHELL. LOOK IN THE MIRROR YOU’LL FAIL TO SEE. BUT UNDERNEATH YOU’RE JUST LIKE US.

CHAPTER 001

I discovered this on Irresponsableful's YouTube channel(devoted to hardcore, post metal, noise rock, etc.). It's the first hardcore punk release in my collection. I dig the nasty vocal timbre and the cover art and theme. The energy is just as abrasive as the kind found in extreme metal so I will def be keeping my ears open to the hardcore punk genre now. Nuclear Distortion

Rough Business in Copenhagen
by FISK

Manic drum & bass with a sinister industrial edge from this Texas artist that occasional recalls Aphex Twin at his most evil. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 31, 2022

Hypnagogic Surge
by Amselysen

Charged-up, glitched-out electronic music from Montreal's Amselysen that noisily breaks down the tropes of subgenres like hardcore and IDM. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 8, 2020
