Artist picture
A solo punk band with songs ranging from politics to social issues to evolutionary biology.
Lacking any real musical talent, I decided to use Punk-o-Matic to create some generic punk backgrounds to the various songs I had written. Recorded at low quality through a computer microphone, the songs are not musical masterpieces but the lyrics are still strong. Give it a listen, you might enjoy it.

Lyrics
We see it as a failure Preventable malady Strive for perfection A better humanity Yet is the end so bleak? Void of any hope? As fade to “ruin” Others climb the rope The end is on our systems From our oldest ancestors Who vanished from the Earth As our lives go for the better And someday in the future Whether it be near or far We will die off too Don’t disdain, it’s who we are It’s extinction, a painful word to hear Obliteration, over time we disappear No distinction, from the other species here An expectation, nothing to fear Are we all so different From Earth’s other life? Just some varied genes We suffer the same plight We can’t be constant As our settings transform Destruction comes A pathologic norm As others wash away New variants can flourish Nothing lasts forever Descendents they are nourished When you look ahead Don’t become malcontent In biologic terms We all are just transients! It’s extinction, a painful word to hear Obliteration, over time we disappear No distinction, from the other species here An expectation, there is nothing to fear I don’t know what’s gonna happen, I’m just as ignorant as you, I am not perfect, I am flawed Yet someone will make it through I write these words sing these lines Yet even my voice is masked in fear I steal these riffs use these beats I have no course to steer Yet neither did our fathers And neither will our sons Random and chaotic There is no track on which we run (Play with repeating chorus) I don’t know Where we’ll go How it ends Fall of men But it’s normal Ephemeral All the others And our brothers Face this change Left estranged For the future Our departure!
