lyrics

we have a series of series
which we think you’ll quite like
meticulously prepared
checking every market box

we have divided them
into neat little packages
carefully organized
in bite-sized morsels

10 episodes
over 10000 seasons
all focus grouped
with painstaking precision
a perfect sample size
of your peers
preying scientifically
on their silly fears

enough content
to fill your life
enough content
to fulfill your worthless life

what else are you going to do with it?

you’re worth
as much as you have at birth

there are no rags to riches
there are only rags or riches

and we regret to inform you
that you have rags

yes you have rags

so shut up and enjoy the show

Quite possibly the most full-on album I've ever listened to. Intense, and then some. 'Digital Tarpit' could describe both the track and the whole album: high-pitched guitar squeals that make your fillings itch coupled with merciless, suffocating heaviness. The Avenell-esque vocals top it off perfectly. Brilliant - punishing, but brilliant. jim_fuego
