Live footage provided by The Art Of B.
The third song from “Creation and the Timeless Order of Things” is entitled “Pastoral Monolith.” The song is about the lasting and devastating impacts of British colonialism in Nigeria. In the past few weeks, we have seen Israels attacks on Gaza which also have their historical roots in British colonialism.
The song features guest vocals from Dennis Lyxzen (Refused, Fake Names, International Noise Conspiracy), who is a longtime friend and co-conspirator of the band. The video has images and quotes from various activists and artists who have fought back against colonialism, settler colonialism, and their capitalist systems. The video itself is an homage to the (International) Noise Conspiracy’s video for “Smash It Up.”

LYRICS
The borders of dead empires
Dug deep into the dead earth
Like the lines scared into your face
Two days later we could still see the blast
Bombs in the market
White butterfly in her chest
He wore black docs
Hit this sword to dust
Black Creek
Dirt boots so bold, soot eye
The cup runs over with time
Dancing in the cave
New worlds in our darkened days
These mountains scream our name
Moments between long dead dreams
Extract carbon to taste
The wine answers to the pitted fates
Feet bound in mud and salt
Your love escapes Ghomara’s Gate
