The water glowed As if lit from within The hollow sound of the falls The roar of torrent begins Waves send their chorus Come to the edge of the shore I hear the sound of laughing water The slow ripples of war Deep dark water Floats our secrets out to the sea A sleeping giant To modern life's embrace Lead them to the future To face the rising climb In the shadow of a looming darkness Living on borrowed time Deep dark water Floats our secrets out to the sea A mirror, to mankind A world, turned upside The rhythms, a life time The gloom, the dark side Always dreamed of this moment Where silence spreads its wings Over the earth again The rhythms of modern life Gazed in silence In the rags of a servant On borrowed time The days slip by The rising tide The barking dog That never bites Spare us the ones That fall back to sleep They are the counted They are the sheep

So here we are. Balancing on the precipice of moral extinction, Woefully ignorant, mindfully arrogant. The relentless search for profits, That has destroyed our environment, The empty promises, That fill our empty streets. Whilst we still let politicians lie and cheat, Half the world overheats, And the other still struggle to eat. To a world that puts individual success, Over collective progress. Choosing to give our personal lives away for free, Laid bare for judgement, On the coals of conformity. Where vanity masks our shared calamity A System failed from the start The divide The decree Corruption bleeds at the heart They’ve sold out on luck No guarantee This Machine A schism that keeps us apart The injustice The debris Reduction of life to a chart The cost of living Redeem me This Machine To be human has died As machines, we’ve come alive

about

Human Worth are proud to present their first split 7" featuring brand new tracks and exclusive bonus materials from two of noise rock’s heaviest 72% and Modern Technology.

The two bands met sharing a bill for Baba Yaga’s Hut in London in March 2020. Little did they know that this would be one of their last shows before the world upended and the Covid crisis engulfed UK’s live music scene. A year on and there’s finally some light at the end of the tunnel, so to celebrate the bands have managed to wrangle together these new tracks recorded in and amongst the pandemic.

We’ve pressed up a super limited edition of 150 marbled silver and black vinyl, featuring stunning artwork and photography by Chris Clarke and Joe Brown, which come with a download of two extra bonus tracks featuring a special guest ‘Drowning In A Sea of Bastards’ remix by Wayne Adams (Big Lad / Petbrick) and a brand new Modern Technology track ‘Ctrl’ seeing the duo pushing their sonic palette into the most extreme depths yet.

Pre-order from 5th March with 10% of all proceeds (+ Bandcamp’s usual 15% cut on the fee waiver days) going to charity CALM – a leading movement against suicide, who are currently supporting more people than ever through this challenging time.
