    I’ve been listening to this entire album on loop lately.

    Del was very ahead of his time with the material, which is horrifying since the album describes a completely dystopic future.

    An excerpt from “Turbulence” from the album:

    Fuck Earth, I want to live on Mars so I’m closer to the stars

    And farther away from dumb civilization with no mental stimulation

    They changed the constitution for your red white and blue friends

    Exterminate the nuisance, no one listens to what you said

    The online is touching your head

    With brainwashing, with propaganda about your fearless leader

    Who got two hundred bodyguards so you can’t touch him either

    Bodies disappear, obviously of fear

    Lobbyists can’t get near shit

    Everybody’s spirits are under control

    Computers run with the soul

    Elitists defeat us, they live by the beaches

    Bubble-dome over the hemisphere, so you can’t enter here

    We live in the dumps with mutant rodents

    With blood red eyes, saliva drips for opponents

    Scratch your ID chip of 'cause everybody own it

    I envision turbulence and murder since it’s an everyday occurrence

    I envision turbulence and murder since it’s an everyday occurrence

    I envision turbulence and murder since it’s an everyday occurrence

    I envision turbulence and murder since it’s an everyday occurrence

    They only teach high-tech in private portables

    That float above commoners, they’d soon as bomb it first

    Advanced safety features, from contact with creatures

    Who either slave their lives away in outdated factories

    Or may be bounty hunters in a land of apathy

    I’m Butch Cassidy, style wild, uncontained

    I steal computer disk files, drink water from drains

    Metal detectors check ya, with reflectors in every sector

    While I drink electric nectar

    No one believes in specters and spooks

    They just lecture the youth about having respect and couth

    Toward the US, and you guessed it

    The rest get imprisoned or incisions in their medulla

    No president, we have a ruler

    “You are to be inside by 9 o’clock or we will shoot ya”

    Missile launchers haunt ya in your nightmares

    It ain’t quite fair, little tykes ain’t prepared

    They’ve got your wife naked bare in the subway

    For some thug play, neo-punks with cerebral pumps

    For enhanced recognition of politicians and witches

    Senior citizens are disposed against their wishes

    Aliens landed and said our planet wasn’t worth invadin’

    ‘cause all the natural resources are fadin’
