Rust EP by Spaceheads
“What does the money machine eat? It eats youth, spontaneity, life, beauty and above all it eats creativity. It eats quality and shits out quantity.” -William S. Burroughs
We are witnessing corrosion of our society by greed at the top
William Burroughs words are still valid today as our society disintegrates and rusts away around us.
This EP developed out of Andy’s daily livestreams during lockdown … and summer meet ups on a farm outside Manchester.
These tracks were recorded on the farm along with 20 others (and counting). Initially intended as just demos we felt the performances deserved a proper release.
The roughness around the edges only adds to the intensity.
All the things our grandparents fought for are being stolen. Our history stolen, our memory bank robbed
We can just about remember when we used to be have free education, health and affordable housing.
These have been stolen …. Look out there’s a thief about ..stolen by the money machine as our communities are left to rot ….If only People were like Hedgehogs
