My chest is heavy today, and it’s fertile ground for the uncompromising sludge doom of False Gods. I’m weary of a system whose trigger fingers stop itching the minute a young white man with a blood-soaked, hate-soaked weapon is in their crosshairs. I’m sick of the cowardly pretense of people who pretend racist terrorism has no father. I need False Gods new single “I, Cemetery” to steamroll my soul until it’s no longer in pain and anger, all while knowing that’s not going to happen. This massacre is a memory that burns until it brands my braincells with terror, and False Gods is a sonic salve of crushing drums, pounding bass, and searing riffs. “I, Cemetery” is off their July 2022 release Neurotopia via Seeing Red Records — pre-order it here and here. Right now, let False Gods remind you why we need to take a deep look inside ourselves at who we pretend to be…
When you make new memories, the old you before said memory ceases to exist and a new you is born from that memory. So you are just filled with memories of who you used to be, but that person no longer exists. So you’re basically a cemetery filled with memories of a bunch of yours that no longer exist.
