Ecocide: Our predetermined future! Rising tides— Now we’re redrawing the map! It’s all in the name of progress! We must consume all! "There’s no beauty in this world I couldn’t stand to see stamped out No flesh untasted No branch unbroken No river untarnished No sky unclouded God made this land To serve me And I will bend it and break it And what I want I will take it I will blot out What disgusts me" Never to watch the sunrise Never to feel the breeze Never to shake the earth Never to hold its sons An ancient beast Stolen from our children Congratulations! We hope you're proud of your achievement!

The Last Good Days is an expression of anxiety, frustration, and futility in the face of ecological destruction. The EP title refers to the thought that eventually, each and every living thing experiences its last "good" moments before the agony of death. There is no guarantee that we will realize we are experiencing those fleeting last smiles until after they've already faded, and we take for granted every pleasant experience. The grand question is: when the bad times come, will you be satisfied with how you spent the good ones?
