Final Track of "Vignettes of the Apocalypse", an hour-long debut album of ambient / noise / drone / experimental amorphous gooey apocalyptic sound morsels.

Lyrics:
they build. they plan. the world will become perfect now. the leaves sway and flicker gently within the wind. a strain of birdsong flits in and out of existence. the bicycles blow by in the noonday afternoon light, their frames shiny and opaque and fizzling. the ground begins to shake. the planning is done. the building has begun. all will go to plan. everything is okay.
the sun begins to drag and pull itself across the sky, spilling bleeding entrails of a new world across the shifting stratosphere, compounding conflagrations burning all that is here and now to the ground. the sidewalks begin to curve up, up, up; the asphalt dripping and ricocheting into a million different shattered fragments of color and light and smoke. the ground opens its maw. geological stratum as old as time itself slither and worm their way into the abyss. the air is thick, the air is crackling, the air is suffocating. the leaves levitate and move sideways through it like honey. the buildings reshape themselves, build themselves, mold, themselves into a greater image. everything can be seen. everything will be beautiful.
time splinters, glittering fragments of reality now, a remnant, a relic, a lost, beautiful, ugly thing with the trivialities of mortal meaning left behind, spinning around within the colour, the light, under the all-seeing sun. the world is caving in on itself. what we know, and what we don't, and everything bright, and beautiful, and in between is collapsing onto itself, coalescing into a singular immaculate horizon from which nothing will return.
everything is near
and everything is far
and everything is going to be okay
everything is going to be okay
everything is going to be okay
everything is going to be okay

oh my god
the kind of atmosphere you're able to create with music is incredible. The bass is a little on the hard side, but other than that I'd say this is an 11/10 piece. Fantastic work. (also that poetry is some of the best writing I've ever seen in my life holy sh*t)
i still enjoy this track
oh my god
oh my god
