about

A huge underwater machine, massive sonar echos. The last part is a looped audio sample of bass from a tricked-out, very Latino styled, large American sedan, with the foreground noise of an Indigenous Mexican immigrant mom and child. It IS a journey of harsh and experimental sounds, angry and massive! It's the feeling of being trapped underwater for too long under a massive machine, coming to the surface for a bit before being dragged back with the undertow and rhythmic sludge. Elias remembers reeling at the idea of the quantity of oil that geysered into the ocean during the Deep Hater Horizon event. The audio sample at the beginning is a man from New Orleans talking about the oil company being in tight with the political-elite shot-callers and being allowed to self regulate of their own compensation, safety, and capacity standards (easily subverted by the profit motive).

lyrics

It's like putting Dracula in charge of the blood bank and expecting blood at the end of the deal.
