about

The single “Outer-net” from “Auditory Artifacts” recorded in the Industry City based Brooklyn recording studio Big Orange Sheep. Featuring a live trio (guitar/vox, bass and drums) with electronically composed post-production.

The song is a social commentary on the electronically connected state of the modern world. A slightly dimmed outlook on an internet obsessed society. The general public which has regular access to an abundance of information seems to typically revolve around gossip and “trolling”. While there is an audience for the inter-web as an inspiring educational tool it still has to stand a fight against fake news and propaganda from both the left and right sides. From global issues to identity theft and stalking the internet stands as our most accessible tool used for peace as well as chaos.

lyrics

Verse
The world is changing quickly
Through our phones and TV screens
We feel we're more connected
But addiction isn't free;
We find the information
That we know we shouldn't seek
And gorge ourselves on what is fed through pre-determined leaks

Chorus
Welcome to the internet
Scared off by the outer-net
Live life like there's no regret
In the outer-net
Stealing from the internet
Scared off by the outer-net
Live life like there's no regret
In the outer-net

Verse
We're all absorbed in stalking prey
But cannot make a kill
We wound and watch them limp away
While know their scars won't heal
We look for things we need to hate
As jealousy controls
Surfing through commercial bait
Trapped in it, virtual

Chorus

Outro
In the name of the free
And the home of the uploaded
No body used to worry about
being downloaded
Now we're all loaded
