A Predictable Outcome
01:22

give them an inch they'll take a mile - you're the one with the measuring tape - running with the scissors - put those medicines away - an offer - and etc - what i've seen won't give me hope - what i'd be gives me pause - runs away with what it's taken - cut up and feasted on and remained existing

The Miff of Sisyphus
01:08
|
|||
|
a flick of the tongue - the blame is shifted - pick the lure - one idea separates us - labor shall gain you entrance - herein hides the lie - your work builds the castle walls higher - the slope is steep and getting slicker - you will never push that boulder to the top

Time Inequity
02:00
|
|||
|
life in derision - die by a decision - hoard accumulation - doling out the scraps - death by design - the time of kings has passed and we're stuck in it still - what do we need you for - we put the noose on ourselves - pull tight the rope - it's my pleasure - there's no profit in a kindness - only blood has wrought gold - watching time stand still - for those who can afford it
|

nose deep is the disgust we're wading in - still believe we can swim - this festering pool of filth is ravenous with greed - spent every shred of future to feed it to excess - it poisons - it torments - it takes it's time with the kill in it's mouth - marketplace society, at ease - mass populace sedation - anesthetize me as you please - it's hard to breathe without the weight of your boot on my neck - innundate the masses with the need and strip the means to achieve them - by it's very design you are it's prey

Feed Us Defeat
01:24
|
|||
|
a life is no life - unless it's your own - we've learned nothing - now we will be shown - inhumane conditions - become their perdition - the flies will have their fill - the worms will have their fill - feast away - this place will belong to you again soon
|

|
a world gone mad - a new slogan at the corporate retreat - we'll make a killing from all the killing - stoke the fires and watch the stocks rise - play the sides straight down the line - can't have one and not the other - the pendulum has swung too far - now you need protection from your protection - indebted to this infection - on your knees

One Half Step Away
01:14
|
|||
|
harass and degrade to escape your complicity - capitalize on social currency - your convictions never meant as much as your image - the only sound we heard was your retreat - pray that we'd forget this - another instance of honoring a victim at a convenience - another laughable tale of accountability - one half step away from doing nothing at all

These Yearning Abattoirs
03:59
|
|||
|
not even mired in truth the lies spread - worm their way in - taking hold in the minds of the vulnerable and disenfranchised - how can we still pretend that it was ever working but for just a small percent - or that the old ways were ever worth a return to - united we stand - in poverty - in death - those bloated pigs look ready for the slaughterhouse - each day we grow hungrier and ready the blades - and wonder - what do we need you for?

VISIT TO A GRAVE
by ...AND ITS NAME WAS EPYON
supported by 8 fans who also own “Inside A Shrinking Spiral”
俺を困惑させるアニメインフルエンスドScreamo達の1つ、...AND ITS NAME WAS EPYONの2019年作品。エヴァでもAKIRAでもlainでもなくガンダム。もういい加減にしてください。しかし真面目に論じるぞ。新機動戦記ガンダムWの日本での放映は1995年であったが、USでは2000年に始まっており、USで最初に放送されたガンダムシリーズ作品だという。そしてこのタイミングがRadioheadが『Kid A』を発表し、アメリカ国内ではCity Of Caterpillar等の新しい世代のScreamoが確立しつつある時期でもある。ファンダムがオタク臭強い初期ガンダムの流れとも異なり、女性ファンにも支持される2000年代以降のガンダム文脈を背負うScreamoは日本でどう受け止めるべきか俺にはわからない。
