about
ESCAPE FROM SPACE JAIL is the first single from our debut album A VISION OF LIGHT - due Summer 2018!
lyrics
You lack the weapons
You lack the nerve
You lack the courage to escape Space Jail
You're such a rebel
Man of the world
Ignoring every virtue of the beaten trail
You want it?
You got it!!
We'll take away your freedom if you're not for sale
You want it?
You got it!!
Do you still see the faces of the friends you failed?
We are a sovereign nation
So come do your worst
You think you can take us over
But not if we find you first
We are perfection
We are your god
Detain you for eternity for no good reason
You anti-heroes
All look the part
Sure to be a shoo-in at awards show season
You want it?
You got it!!
Did Cube update you that the ghosts of Mars were real?
You want it?
You got it!!
Sit back and let the future tell you how to feel
We are a sovereign nation
So come do your worst
You have no jurisdiction
So save it for Earth
The chances for peace you wasted
The voices inside your head
You'd be the perfect soldier
But you had to act like the hero instead.

Found this through my poor Spotify trying desperately to find what I might like to listen to. Not at all my normal type of music but it actually made me stop and listen. Delightful from beginning to end. It's gone onto my DAP to become part of my normal rotation of music. vonvanna
Twitchy, effects-heavy post-punk grooves give way to psychedelic surf-rock delirium on the Toronto quartet's dreamy-yet-doomy second LP. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 25, 2024
