about

Concept: Two convicts from an alien world stage a prison break -- snatching a perpetually transmitting radio communicator on their way out -- and seek refuge in an obscure habitable planet far beyond the legal reach of their captors. This is their transmission.

lyrics

Inflorescent:
(I can almost)
Taste it, celestial take aim at the basis
The best route to shake frame is to break it,
Because the fist is clenched, the arm is strong, the bomb is armed, and your shit is next
Smash your glass encasement, and your face with it
In passiveness, I find nothing but disgrace for living
Slammed and crammed then made to listen to ancient visions resold
I demand my space for living in boldness,
Emboldened by the infinitely naked oldness of fresh clothes,
And in linen that flows like cut ribbons, we launch…
It’s absolutely beautiful… Fuck y’all
From great gas we form to smash through your usual,
You think you got it locked down? We laugh at your delusions
All your security seems premature next to futurity
We’ll rip your tendons and rewrite your endings
Feel the fury of various individuals,
Two shine brightly like rarities in minerals
A ball of light; was a comet moving calmly,
Now I’m striking deep beneath to raise zombies
And beat the drum that bears blessings to the boundless
Send lessons for the unaccounted for…
When we eject from black holes, energy undetected by your electromagnetic spectrum, and,
Anti-gravity particles, your glue will prove useless
We might’ve been on the run but this pond’s lookin’ small
We flow, explode, and break down like the sand
Giants from the sky, thundering coming from something
It’s the call, the wall that falls to smash all
And you scram, as tall as one could crawl, land on your hands; scrawl the tale, it’s beyond the pale,
It’s what’s coming to land, make no mistake, it’s the mothafuckin’ BLAM

Spitnautical + Inflorescent:
Spent too long laying dormant,
We escaped from home and goin’ straight for your orbit
Between us the space is shortening, yeah, your fate is sealed it’s time to face the torment
Got an unsafe place of origin and we soarin’ quick, fuck with the course of the ship
To make the shortest trip, and flooring it,
When we both join forces your best defense plan’s to forfeit -- we’re swarming

Spitnautical:
Our tools are beyond, anything you’re set to develop for two or three eons
Respond how you will,
No recon could ever put you in a position to anticipate the friction or pressure
Y’all gon' have to sit through the weather
Any prediction is error til our craft makes touch
Your meanest stuff’s ancient artifacts to us
We’ll smash the crust then fucking blast through the dust like (BOOM)
No safe havens, cause we hatched a plan to land and leave your place blazin’
Wipe the foundations of your house to make a statement
Crush the granite and blast down through the pavement
Stones shake, waves oscillate, and erode the base, of what remains in the wake
No changing our course, ain’t much space before
This isn’t a warning; it’s a comet burst to flames,
While approaching and is aimed to take out your floor,
Foreshadowing to when we cast shade on your door,
Invade your estate, make the high stakes toast,
Then break out and make a glass ghost look opaque
… And where will others go next? Where prey goes after detecting holes in the net:
They explode from the reins, roam and finally take control of events,
And build nests and homes from the bones that they find decomposing in the mess
We already said it, there’s nothing else to explain…
Don’t get to steppin' and just leave us to our domain?
We’ll aim the mothafuckin’ device straight at your brain and BLAM
