Entire Silos of Genocide
Hidden In America’s Backyard
Paid for With Tax Dollars
The Sublime Destruction of the Other
The subsidized economy of violence
Permits nothing to escape
Ordinance destined for unnamed villages
The logical conclusion
Of America’s infinite borders

look around,
see all the ways that you are not
scrutinize
those faces that wordlessly cry out
"you are not wanted here"
be the loitering car
the probing question
the blessed third eye of the surveillance state
discipline the flesh,
to wires,
and barbs,
and cellphone towers,
and signals,
and codes
and numbers

What do you learn here?
sandbag and plywood classroom
the apex predator
relearning what it already knows
the stiff collared shirt--
ever so ready to get unbuttoned
untethered from time
untethered from space
existence: unacknowledged
innocence: revoked
lawful abuse
my writhing black bagged worm
marked for death
smelling of shit and decay
put your back into it
morning coffee breath
exhausts the last spark
doused in gallons of stagnant water
this is what cleans
baptizing fresh linen in blood
I’ve imagined you
like a fuckable hole
from thousands of miles away
leveraging science to demonstrate
absolute superiority
in my notes here
I’ve penned you in
under animal
red meat
soon to be rotting

Black Ergot recommends:
Only the hardest, true till death, powerviolence/grindcore supergroup in this corner of the Bronx. They hit quick and they hit hard.

Strongest hardcore release of 2020, no question. Handles dynamics, shrieking vocals, and aggression like a souped up Honda WRX barreling down the highway at 120 mph. DJ Fucker track is lovely as well

Bienvenue en Amérique
by Euthanasie Volontaire
Probably the best introduction to George's unique take on harsh noise, textures, and violence. It is difficult to pick "the" release in EV's discography, but this release stands among the best.
