Para além disso, e por diversos outros motivos, muitas outras mentes também nos deixaram. E, em sua pior faceta, as vidas que foram levadas com ela. este último ano trouxe ainda a pandemia e consequências sem precedentes em diversas áreas. Muito embora haja uma sensação geral de que todo ano seja ou esteja sendo pior - sensação talvez parcialmente justificável, por tudo que ocorre no mundo e pela frustração de que tantos avanços tecnológicos não contribuam para a resolução de conflitos humanos históricos, direitos e dignidade do indivíduo e do coletivo, etc. Everyone be well, keep a cool head, take care of yourselves, and take care of EACH OTHER.Nem precisamos dizer o quanto 2020 foi difícil.

We only get one shot, so don’t waste this day. So enjoy the song and video, and then remember to step away from the screens for a bit- real life is waiting for you. The release date for the tune was set a good while ago, but the timing seems eerily prescient to me now. Music has always been there for me, raising my spirits during hard times, and it is my hope that this song’s positive message will do the same for fans of our music right now and beyond. Richmond has a strong tradition of loud music and weird costumed monsters working hand in hand to make salient points (we are the birthplace of GWAR, after all), and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. The actual monsters we used in the video are Sinisteria, a local Richmond, Virginia haunted house/dark performance troupe I met on the street at our annual Krampus Nacht parade. I wrote the narrative music video treatment a few months ago to illustrate how warped and myopic our mental states can become when we fail to remain engaged with that reality- if all you pay attention to is catastrophe, then soon you will begin to see monsters everywhere you look. While these devices can be useful tools, and it is important to stay informed, it is equally important to remain engaged with the real, physical world we with live in, not just digitally filtered representations of reality. Months before the COVID-19 outbreak occurred, I wrote “Memento Mori” as a reminder to myself to not be consumed by the omnipresent electronic harbingers of doom that surround us- cellphones, computers, and television screens. It is indeed a scary time, but in this hyper-connected age with its 24/7 never-ending news cycle of atrocity, outrage and lurid click-bait headlines (not mention ill-informed lunatics running amok and spreading misinformation and panic on social media), it is all too easy to lose sight of the fact that life is still carrying on, and good things do in fact still happen. This is a very real concern, and proper precautions need to be taken by EVERYONE in order to protect those most at risk- the elderly, infirm, and immuno compromised. Currently, at the forefront of everyone’s mind is the global COVID-19 pandemic.

There is a vast amount of indisputably real and depressingly negative occurrences happening across the globe.
