Total Prison Abolition

I initially made this track over the course of about 10 minutes as a sort of affectionate pastiche of blackened crust bands who have thoughtful and intelligent lyrics shrieked in such a manner that they're incomprehensible and you have to read the booklet to get what's being said, as the music proper is made more for cathartic sonic violence than anything. Unfortunately my initial lyrics were already pretty thoughtful, my lyrics ended up being pretty coherent, and I'm not sure that the result can really be classified as blackened crust!! And to complicate matters further, I already strongly agreed with the message in the lyrics and I started to genuinely get into the performance!!!!

For example, the prison population is higher than that of China, a supposedly more repressive state. Most legal repression is directed at people of colour and other vulnerable populations. We must fight against this unjust and corrupt system with the objective of abolition. Total prison abolition now.
