Pop music, laughable, surface-level rap rock
Simple, fake, embarrassing, I wish he’d take his cap off
Not that real shit, populist rhetoric
Anyone that’s feeling it is not really getting it
Empty vessels, cultural piracy
Heavy retro, no finger on the pulse for the irony
Music that makes me contemplate cutting aff ma ears
Just weird. Well fuck you we’re still here
It’s the dated, most hated, honest guys these mugs
Are blander than an instant coffee in a polystyrene cup
Agitation propaganda, false rebellions
Shades a grey music in a world that’s Orwellian
Didn’t they do that advert folks actually despised?
Well did do that aye but we were contractually obliged
Inauthentic hip-hop and indy-angst weirdness,
In a Scottish accent? How can ah unhear this
Hating hate is like: Copying to pioneer
Hanging round to disappear, deafening to try and hear
Crying over spilt tears, frightening to kill fear
I don’t hate I laugh like “fuck you we’re still here”
The Indy Movement is:
Blood and soil (is it fuck), narrow-minded, give it up
Isolatory remnants of deep-ingrained prejudice
From the economically illiterate, SNP sycophants
And an uneducated underclass that don’t understand their predicament
Blind nationalist hacks playing follow the flag
And it’s all part of Sturgeon's diabolical plan
It couldn’t be about, working class otherings, Or merits of localised government
Reboot Project Fear: “fuck you we’re still here”
The world is a Cold place, don’t expect any help
No one’ll have yir back, best look out for yirsel
Look after number one, born alone die alone
Picking up the phone to call but there’s no dial tone
Community is a myth, public services should disappear
Society’s not real. “fuck you we’re still here”
In case you missed the point while we’ve all hanging off this precipice
Don’t let the bastards get you down and don’t dwell on the negative
Clocking in over an hour, a real "Who's Who" of voices over the Astronaut's audio productions in many styles. Supported this for the Ast-Ast and some of my favorite rappers: Texture, Solareye, Laughing Gear (Eaters!), Harlequinade (Soleni), Replicator, and Tickle. Love what is going on in Scotland's hip hop tribe. Oddio Overplay
Keening, yearning, captivating and lovely collection of songs, the sense of close performance all the more remarkable when you learn it was made during Covid lockdown in 2020. The ballads and poems set to music on this album might be hundreds of years old, and while they do have an air of immortal, ancient tradition about them, they sound utterly current. Badzie
