This wonderful song features lead vocals and lyrics from Elizabeth Fraser, the lead singer for the dream pop band Cocteau Twins
side-project and solo-project for member Benjamin John Power who is also part of the band The F**K Buttons, who described the inspiration for the project "as humans, we are aware of our inner beast and should therefore be able to control it. We understand our hard-wired primal urges and why they exist in an evolutional sense. We understand the relationship between mind and body. Highly evolved and intelligent, we should be able to recognize these genetic hangovers and control them as a means to act positively and move forward as a compassionate species. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Recent global events have proven this. The human race is consuming itself. "

A brand new surprise album release! you can stream the album for free here: soundcloud.com and read the heartbreaking statement: "I was gonna quit music this weekend. From day 1 it was clear I was an accidental pop star. I loved the idea of it, I mean who doesn’t? Still the wear of staying polished with how I’m presented and how my music was presented took a huge toll on me mentally. I started to hate music, the thing I loved the most! When I would listen to immaculate recordings with my friends their praise over the quality of the art as opposed to the art itself made me feel really sad for music as a medium in general.”
