about
A parody of "What A Wonderful World." Original song was written by Bob Thiele (as "George Douglas") and George David Weiss.
lyrics
Is This a Wonderful World
I see seas once green, and soldiers too
I’ve seen them die both serving you
and I say to myself…is this a wonderful world?
I hear words untrue and screams in the night
Once blessed day is now dark amplified
and I say to myself…is this a wonderful world?
The colors of the rainbow once pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of those travelers you denied
I see you shaking hands saying how do you do
When both of us know that its all about you
I hear babies crying, I’ll watch them grow
They'll hurt much more than I'll ever know
and I say to myself…is this our wonderful world?
Yes, I say to myself…is this our wonderful world?

hardcore punk, jazz, alien themes, kind of all my jams wrapped into a tight package. Intense, freaky, lean runtime but feels dense especially being sectioned into essentially 4 parts. Easily one of the best punk records of the decade so far. Also that drumming...holy shit alienasu

The Cleveland band temper uncompromising metalcore breakdowns with infectious jangle-pop melodies and ample dark humor.

So happy I bought the vinyl, fantastic collection of Cevin's early music. Recommended if you're into Skinny Puppy or if you're a fan of early EBM, industrial or noisey beats! :) jeff
