1.
Haven't you heard? Science and technology will save us all!
2.
Stand and point and take photographs with your phone. It's the fun they want you to have. And follow the trail they've laid out for you, and smile and tell your children this is the fun you want them to have. Go on.
3.
Money is magic. Reality changed, desires embodied, others cursed to do your bidding. Money is the new sorcery.
4.
Anxiety is the sound of hounds in cry, obscured by the treeline and the wind. Frustration is the sight of the hunt in flight, and a quad, and a covert. But these are the shudders of a dying class, their laughs a façade of identity in crisis. Where once they rode as the field and master now there are no words but bastard.
5.
Strike! 01:38
It's an act of indecision, an easy option for tired masses. Elections only temper your anger. There's no vote that will give you power. Don't vote. Strike! Reclaim control of work and life. Syndicalise or unionise. Form affinities, communities, but never vote. Always strike.
6.
In fact there is no defence. You're just an arrogant twat. You're still decaying like everything else.
7.
Hypermacho! 01:30
Hypermacho! Love meat, love beer - you're a man now. Hypermacho! Hate women, hate queers - you're a man now.
8.
You say you're an anarchist, you say you're a feminist, yet all of your housework is done by women and none of the struggles you're concerned with are for women and all of your emotional support comes from women and none of the concessions you make are for women. You say you're an anarchist, you say you're a feminist, but I'm not so sure.

about

We recorded this in a practice room with a couple of borrowed mics, a 4track and a laptop. Glen mixed it and Gillies put it onto tapes. It's mostly live, has some dodgy bits in but we think is pretty representative of where we were at as a band when we got it down. It was really fun to write play and record and we hope you like it.

The album is named for Thomas Hobbes. He wrote a book called "Leviathan" that outlined the Divine Right of Kings to rule the land and that people of that land comprised little more than a part of monarch's body. This laid foundations for modern Western civilisation and the Nation State. What a dick.
