about

Recorded in Ottawa and Montreal, special thanks to Martine and Matthew. Written, produced, engineered and mixed by William Patton

lyrics

And so the age when all is naught
And naught is all is come.
Yet the sun rises bright and hot,
And from the cave still beats the drum.
When man and atom behave differently under observation,
Beyond the veil of truth and god
Within a thousand years of meditation.
Descend from the high ground
Continue to plough the field
For you are as much as beast
as the ones beneath the yoke
There is waiting for you the grandest feast
Will you indulge? will you divulge that the masks in theatre have more bearing
than the numbers of arithmetic?
Ask yourself what costume you are wearing.
When myth can teach more than the innards of basest matter
And when the naked nature is cast into light
Reason and action shatter
in the dusk
The truth is a worthless husk
Find your place in the sun
For there is only one

Bitter Tree Jeju-do, South Korea

The winds howl nobody's melody through a bitter tree's branches that reach up past the sky. Mountainous bow-tar ambiance, post-doom and drone. Ottawa, Canada/ Jeju-do, South Korea.
