about

Song meaning:
This one is based on the Gaia hypothesis , which states that organisms interact with inorganic surroundings on earth to form a complex bond,(Hyper Object . . .All enmeshed) and the theory that the Earth is going to have to kill man to protect itself by using natural disasters as a sort of immune system boost/defence system.

The song makes reference to the anthropocene era, that is the era we are in now, where man has become the dominant paradigm and the dominant influence on climate and the environment.(Primates Crawling/Diseased Thinking)

lyrics

Primate/Crawling
Diseased/Thinking
A Swarm/Consume
We Feed/On It

Virus Innate
DNA Slave
Anthropocene
This Worlds Death Knell

Fragile We are
A fleeting dawn
Future so bleak
Our Childrens Loss

Rivers/Running/Over/A Cleansing

The Arrogance, To think, That We Are The Apex

She bleeds, and chokes
Our Mother, Dying
Now she rebels
Our Mother, Gaia

Plastic Fossil,
Unnatural Laws,
Isoptope Dawn
Extinction Looms

Hyper-Object
A crossroads met
Microbial
All enmeshed

Poison/Primate/Despoils/The Womb

Repeat Pre-Chorus

Repeat Chorus

Second Coming of Heavy Chapter One - Geezer/Borracho
by Geezer/Borracho

supported by 10 fans who also own “Mother Gaia”

Are Geezer the heaviest heavy blues band out there? Probably, but if you’re unsure, just listen to these four songs and decide for yourself. And while your eyelids get heavy from all that smoke, Borracho have the cowbell to lead you home. This is a stoner rock goldmine, folks, so bet in the van whilst you can. We got nine more of these trips to go! Kirk Gauthier

Switchblade Jesus

Outstanding Hard-Rock from these Texas tornados. Switchblade Jesus will undeniably be compared to Kyuss, Corrosion of Conformity and Clutch. Play this one loud, however, and let those massive crunchy riffs hammer their way into your skull, 'Equinox', 'Sick Mouth', 'Copperhead' and the bludgeoning 'Oblivion' in particular are just so satisfying that you have to hold your hands up and say 'THIS BAND ROCKS!'

Family the Smiling Thrush
by Boss Keloid

supported by 9 fans who also own “Mother Gaia”

An amazing album 👍🏻 It took me a while to get into Boss Keloid’s groove. I knew intellectually that it was my kinda music but I didn’t take to Melted On The Inch like I thought I would. I think listening to lots of modern jazz limbered me up! This is really complicated prog rock with heavy ass guitars added for street cred. I’m so happy that anyone might consider this band cool. They’re fucking cool to me but music like this has been vilified in the past. All hail the new Gentle Giant! Crinklechips
