    Check out these fabulous recommendations!

    "I'd rather die in a ditch than buy this album! This is pure surrender, capitulation and humbug. Gorman clearly needs to man up!" - The Captain.

    "Really, really, traitorous stuff...complete covfefe…and I say that as the finest judge of musical talent in history...terrible, terrible guy." - The Future President of Greenland.

    For anyone following current events with their head in their hands this is your album. Follow the rise of the King of Lies from a back breaking life of wealth and privilege to election as Captain of our glorious Ship of Fools.

    I should add that if you do swag the download you won't want to miss the full glory of David MacKenzie's sparkling take on the cover art – so I’ve put mini versions here for you. Oh and there's even more Parental Advisory lyrical jocularity than usual so make sure to check with mummy and daddy that you’re old enough to listen.

about

Bread and Circuses. Overblown sports coverage, CGI movie blockbusters, social media celebrity battles and ratings topping Box Sets. The danger that entertainment and social and material distraction can become misdirection. The blurring of reality. The hysteria of the elected and the electorate. The illusion that it's all about you.

lyrics

Season Finale

I’m a box set baby this is episode one
Everything about me is about having fun
The centre of the universe is in my TV
I’m recommended viewing yes it’s all about me

My parent was a colourful rectangle of light
It taught me how to live and told me stories at night
Fits into my pocket, always there by my side
It sure knows what’s best for me it knows what I like

I can’t wait for the ending there’ll be locusts and floods
Amazonian fires and rivers of blood
Evil armies gather and the do-gooders rally
But baby it’s a box set and this is the season finale

I ain’t got time to waste chasing love on my own
No lovers going to know me half as well as my phone
Algorithms know my type and pick who I want
But they’ll never find a partner who’s as hot as my porn

I’m tuning out the buzzkills, it’s a spoiler alert
No I’m never going to listen to another expert
It’s a box set baby and I’m topping the ratings
A hundred species went extinct while I was masturbating

I can’t wait for the ending when we sink into the oceans
There’ll be epic wars and battle scenes and lots of explosions
Evil armies gather and the do-gooders rally
But baby it’s a box set and this is the season finale…
