We were dreaming of the Holocene You were planning for the end of being The children they’re all asking why You sit back and watch them die We were praying for better ways You were preaching the end of days We won’t know until first light Who will make it through the night Our generation is the worst Cos you blessed us with your curse We don’t know till the next heat wave Who'll get sent to an early grave Oh children, I will keep you warm Hell’s coming, there will be a storm Straight out of old testament You know the devil was heaven sent Your sons and daughters are already ours Sharpening rhetoric swords from their plowshares Your teenage heart Won’t suffer anymore When your blood spills For the next holy war Your sons and daughters are already ours Sharpening rhetoric swords from their plowshares We won’t go

Please do this for us It’s not a test Everyone loves you You are the best Please do this for us It brings us joy Everyone loves you Our golden boy Hurry up and press that button I don’t think you really mean it Go ahead and pull that trigger I’ll believe it when we’ve seen it You’re looking triggered Are you upset? What’s taking so long? Loose nerves I bet It’s inching forward The noose won’t slack You can’t delay this No turning back Hurry up and press that button I don’t think you really mean it Go ahead and pull that trigger I’ll believe it when we’ve seen it Did you destroy the master’s house With the master’s tools? Did you beat the master’s game With the master’s rules? Do you see the ashes fall, Don’t you think it looks like snow? Just ignore the burning leaves When the hot wind starts to blow Hurry up and press that button I don’t think you really mean it Go ahead and pull that trigger I’ll believe it when we’ve seen it Did you destroy the master’s house With the master’s tools? Did you beat the master’s game With the master’s rules? Do you see the ashes falling? Don’t you think it looks like snow? Just ignore the burning leaves When the hot wind starts to blow Over

Did you find your heart Let the right one in? Would it be better If we doubt the sin? Beware of ghosts hidden in the mirror These memories are the strangers here Is it over now Did we reach the end? Do you want a release Do we make amends Will you hold me tight When I let you go? Would it be better If we’d never known? Beware of ghosts hidden in the mirror These memories are the strangers here He was a boy She was a girl Now they’re walking mirrors Of each other’s world I won’t hesitate If you say too much I miss your voice I need your touch I know where this goes Show me your shadow I don’t know if you’re the right one All I know is we have right now Beware of ghosts hidden in the mirror These memories are the strangers here

about

Immolation is the latest offering from Joey Chaos and The Ghosts. Informed by Vancouver’s darkwave, post-punk, industrial and grunge scenes, these four tracks were produced during the pandemic lockdown of 2020. Immolation is a reflexive take on a world in decline and explores themes of love, loss, sacrifice and self-care against the rising tide of fascism, inequity and ecological collapse.

Immolation was written, recorded and produced by Andrew Walker, Megan Krenbrink and Joey Chaos. It was initially released on February 12, 2021 fand has subsequently been expanded and rereleased via Surkeus Records on July 20, 2021. Tracks 1,3,4 and 6 were mastered by Greg Reely. Immolation is the follow up to Elegy (2019) and the single Fear (2016).

It is available on Bandcamp, Surkeus Records and all major streaming platforms.
