In the year of our Lord, when the lambs, they do come of age, no one to shoulder the blame - made off with the goose and the gold egg, but got lost in the game. where they been, and where you come from - they're not one in the same - and all the ones that get let down, will leave with only their names this is a choice that we hold - this is the chance that got sold - this is the way that we hold our own - this is the hill that we climb - up for the very last time - it's the space between then and now. Cast off in an ocean of fake tan - bottled up to sell - set course for a coast where our contents - under pressure excel. where we been and what we've come to - not one and the same- broad strokes and things that got lived through could make us go either way. this is a choice that we hold - this is the chance that got­ sold - this is the way that we hold our own - this is the hill that we climb - up for the very last time - this is the space between then and now. once more in the year of our lord we sing are you starting to feel that you belong somewhere else once more in the year of our lord we fall and we're starting to see that we may need something more something real this is a choice that we hold - this is the chance that got­ sold - this is the way that we reclaim our own, this is a chance to do right, or this is your marketing point, this is the space between then and now.

about

Implementing components of industrial, darkwave, synthpop, digital hardcore, and punk, Dystopiarch, from the outset, emerges and presents as its own guerrilla-audio animal.

With a visual aesthetic that recalls the cut-and-paste primitivism of early ‘80s hardcore-punk, and employing scrapyard electronics strewn across the sonic landscape of the past several decades, Dystopiarch paints a stark world picture of now, and what may lay beyond. With song titles like Pale New World, All Our Heroes Are Dead, Disco Famine, and Next Top Model, the one-man venture rails against shallow, banal socio-culture, blind consumerism, self-celebrity, and our lax attitude toward pressing world issues, that may insinuate not that we could someday rue what we have sown, in a distant dystopian future, but that perhaps we’re already neck deep in it.

Most importantly, all proceeds from the singles leading up to the release of a full-length album, will go to benefit the people of war-torn Ukraine (via the International Rescue Committee), as the unjust invasion of the country enters its second year.
