Info: | Follow-up to the
critically-acclaimed debut album “Blacken the
Skies” (2021), The Terminal formula of industrial glam has
been updated with "more industrial, more glam." Thomas Mark Anthony
makes his case for being the genre's best lyricist, weaving grand
themes of power, zealotry and corruption through complex rhyme and
anthemic choruses. Picking up where the previous album left off in its
excoriation of society's dangerous hypocrites, the first line of lyrics
on the new album is "How many guns would Jesus buy?" Plato's Republic
provides the album's title and its theme--that an unjust society is a
doomed society, that democracy in itself is no defense against
demagogues or tyrants. The Goth community will find much to like here
with Anthony's sonorous baritone more prominent in the mix and lyrics
pondering existential themes of religion and mortality. The album is dedicated to Dave Heckman, founder of Metropolis Records, who died unexpectedly and far too young last year... |
