About a decade of learning and experiencing with music has come to realisation! Hope you enjoy the result as much as I do!

For now, the release is strictly on Bandcamp, in my experience the only platform supporting independent music.

Following long time personal concerns, the text explores subjects like wildlife vandalism, planet devastation and ultimately self destruction through weapons, greed, ignorance and segregation by race, wealth or class.

Just how unworthy this ungrateful planet actually is of our “immortal” and “important” presence is depicted by the absurd scenario in the last verse, in which shuttles are taking us to safety, after the Earth is fully destroyed, onto a cleaner and more tolerant planet, “that will show some respect for our human needs”. 

The artwork, based on a picture by Sabine Obst, combines the human face with elements of the animal and the vegetal world, representing the close bonds we have with nature and reminding us that we do share the same fate.

This is a light-hearted, nonchallant song with playful guitars on calypso rythms, expressing a serious message.
