Europe's Missing Sons 04:47
lyrics
buy track
Pale magma cascade down The infant volcano I was ready and able, still unwilling Til now I was silent In this language of violence Til these sheep dressed as wolves made a killing Don't turn to the right Not out of spite For it achieves nothing They speak of honour and pride Words with nothing inside European suffering Don't turn to the right Not out of spite For it achieves nothing Just stick to your guns Europe's missing sons You can beat your tin drum Til you shake and you cum You're ready and willing But unable Romanticised rhetoric Licentious lies What else do the right bring to the table? Don't turn to the right Not out of spite For it achieves nothing They speak of honour and pride Words with nothing inside Europe is suffering Please stick to your guns Europe's missing sons Don't turn to the right Not out of spite For they'll achieves nothing They speak of honour and pride Nothing but lies Please stick to your guns Europe's missing sons

We Learned Nothing 04:02
lyrics

Show, don't tell I will not give up and I will not give in No matter what it comes to Don't care if I win Nothing I LEARNED NOTHING I don't know where they came from But this no game They're nothing to me now, unworthy of names Nothing THIS IS NOTHING Let's go to the beginning A line in the dust The principles they built on, jealousy and lust Nothing THEY LEARNED NOTHING Against the modern world and the old world too Wasted potential Let's start anew from nothing THIS IS NOTHING Worlds will turn Words will burn Flickered and extinguished in a blink Books will burn When will we learn Teetering on the brink of extinction Among the ruins Of our own doing This is nothing We learned nothing We learned nothing

about

This comes ahead of Glow Ghosts, released for free download on Vulpiano on the 14th of July and Sandalphon on the 22nd of September (yes the Autumnal Equinox, naturally).

The A-side if you can call a download that as there're no sides, Europe's Missing Sons, will be on Sandalphon; the B-side is, obviously, exclusive as you can't just stick a track on the internet and call it a single as any good lover of pop music knows.

It's coming out now as my statement on the EU referendum: I think Europe needs to stand together, also we can't give the government any more power than they've already got and let's face it even if you do vote out it's very likely that Parliament will overturn it anyway. Europe's Missing Sons is about the rise of the dual forces of religious extremism and far-right extremism, two sides of the same coin. I wrote this a while ago and take no pleasure from being right because any idiot could've guessed things'd go this way and many people more clued up than me were warning us.

Listen to this as the world burns.
