Islands 05:23
Keep ripping skin from your malnourished bones Scum on the water, cancer on the land The hunt for the flesh and the smell of the hate We burn down the bridges and drown in our waste We hang on the noose, tied around our lifeless throats Ill fate precedes our death, islands rot and decay (x2) All lies submerge what remains Untold hybrids of isolation (x2) Isolation... (x2) Keep ripping skin from your malnourished bones Scum on the water, cancer on the land The hunt for the flesh and the smell of the hate We burn down the bridges and drown in our waste We hang on the noose, tied around our lifeless throats Ill fate precedes our death, islands rot and decay (x2) Lies submerge... Isolation... (x4) All we tried to do is make a change This swansong is bleak (x4)

Crimson Lake 03:48
I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight A silent landscape... broken dreams... apocalyptic social scene (x2) A carmine love... A carmine fever... This fire is forgotten I wish I may, I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight A silent landscape... broken dreams... apocalyptic social scene (x2) A carmine love... A carmine fever... This fire is forgotten (x2) Apply some colour and seduce me (x2) Longing to be someone else Longing to have something more Longing to be someone else Touch yourself and cry (x4)

Blysspluss 03:14
We are gone, BlyssPluss has taken it's toll The end of days for the human race Remove the waste and we will find an answer Collapse and die, see our society fall We are gone! Remove the waste! Push it forward He has a plan We are gone, BlyssPluss has taken it's toll The end of days for the human race Remove the waste and we will find an answer Collapse and die, see our society fall We are gone! Remove the waste! Push it forward He has a plan Push it forward Advance... advance Push it forward He has a plan Push it forward Advance... advance... advance We are gone, BlyssPluss has taken it's toll The end of days for the human race Remove the waste and we will find an answer Collapse and die, see our society fall

Slowdancer 05:01
This beating heart Be still this beating heart of mine We spin off our axis and blood is on our hands Burn out the world Crisis fuels the fire We are no more, we are dead inside This is our last dance The corpses are warm and supple Just spare a thought for them When they lay buried in the ground A jigsaw of modern life Put together by creative views Critical points of view Unlock your thoughts A jigsaw of modern life Put together by creative views Critical points of view Slowdancer... Crawl back... Flashbacks... Hold tight This is our last dance The corpses are warm and supple Just spare a thought for them Embrace the fallen few One wrong turn in desperation Life is cruel, the cancer spreads Tears fill our eyes We grow old, old and jaded Ceremonies of innocence drown Strike a light and dance with me

Prophetic 05:48
The landscape lies bare, a deadened shadow land A utopian view fucking with the natural order Mankind is on it's knees... an evil unknown has crossed the border Fear and suffering suffocates the weak It's a struggle to survive and our future is bleak Sterilise a nation, a nation of greed This image of mankind is hard to believe Sink or swim, we battle infection The modern world still lacks perfection (x2) Crake says it's for the best Redefine the natural order Crake says it's for the best Redefine, then redefine (x2) Sterilise a nation, a nation of greed This image of mankind is hard to believe Sink or swim, we battle infection The modern world still lacks perfection Crake says it's for the best Redefine the natural order Crake says it's for the best Redefine, then redefine The intention of change was darkly prophetic An original logic turned against itself Digest, then fuck, the downfall awaits (x4)

Gripless 03:45
Honey, I can read your mind (x2) Get a grip on your life Get a fucking grip Thoughts say put it behind you Start your existence again No one has trust in anyone Paranoid is not the word Confusion breeds isolation There is nothing but lies and deceit How can greed dominate? Depression soars through our veins Help you... help them serve justice in this world Patience is running out and you can see it in their eyes Honey, I can read your mind (x2) Confusion breeds isolation There is nothing but lies and deceit I drink alone Why are we living? (x2) Enter the edge of sleep A danger appears from the darkness Youth is crushed by violence Beasts await within the cave (x2) Gripless....

Engineers 06:16
Time moves on... progress Life is raped of nature Execute the brave for blueprints Buried deep, the pioneers evolve The pioneers evolve Hopes and fear exploited Life stands still with silence Enhancement, growth, bleeding out the red Knowledge is power, industry is dead We live, love and steal We live, love and steal too much We live, love and steal We live, love and steal too fucking much Who could predict this? One too many lies and greed
8.
Life becomes a contest but desperation shall subside Sexual torment and abuse corrupts the soul We're in it for the species We're in it for survival Let's open the airways Crake's victims are sleeping now, awake in their final dreams Punishment has been dealt and the drowning must end Drag!... Drag!... Drag them back in! Reset the clock No means yes Reset the hour No means yes Push!... Push!... Push them back away! Reset the clock No means yes Reset the hour No means yes No means yes
9.
The day will come when you will be the same The same as all desperate souls Life spirals out of control You can't stay ahead of the game You bought into your destruction The tide will wash away your sins You bought into your destruction It takes your life, hoards everything Rivers keep the peace Money talks while murderers walk (x2) The rivers keep the peace Money talks while murderers walk Canals in the city The water speaks the truth Canals in the city The day will come when you will be the same The same as all desperate souls

Stalking their pray with a natural perception A dystopian climate on hollow ground Close in for the kill Adapt to survive or be eaten alive Deception is foremost You're out of sight but never out of mind Carpe Diem Close in for the kill Adapt to survive or be eaten alive A theory created Now the weak must suffer Escape reality Killing the old to torture the young Escape reality Primal screams drown out domestic dreams High on a mountainside I can see the fire rain down Punishment for their sins Punishment for their souls Tonight is the dark of the moon Star light, star bright... I hear a voice Tonight is the dark of the moon I hear a voice

Psychodrama 05:55
It's in our heads, it's in our homes The flood has taken control (x2) We need to talk Nothing left to say We need to talk Nothing left to see (x2) Goodbye... Remember Killer... I love you... Don't let me down... We need to talk Remember Killer (x3) We need to talk....

about

This swansong from Year Of The Flood features 11 tracks of epic and riff-laden d-beat. Drawing together 2 year's worth of material from both sold-out EPs, plus 5 unreleased songs that have all been mastered by Joe C at Subsequent Mastering

This hand-crafted package has been designed by the band and put together by Giant Iron Face, which includes a recycled card sleeve screenprinted with gold ink, and contain a set of photos with lyrics and thank you list printed on the rear

Heavily inspired by the dystopian literature of author Margaret Atwood, with the overriding themes of violence, greed, consumerism and social selfishness that threaten to overwhelm modern society.
