    Special thanks to all our loving partners for their endless support & patience.

    This album would not have been possible without the commitment & hard work of many close friends including: Agent Jay, Al Ghostcat, Angela Grahm, Caro, Christine Kim, DńD & LöC, Gina, Greg Daly, Gwyn Pétroleuse, Jayne Henson, Karsten Schwarzmayr, Luca, Rob Connolly, & Subhumans.

    This record is dedicated to all those people displaced by the atrocious daily functions of capitalism & the conflicts it instigates & off of which it thrives. Those brave souls are at best forgotten about as refugees & migrants & at worse demonized, scapegoated, & used as reasons to build more walls to divide us all. Those courageous people leave the only reality they have ever known, they leave the people & places they hold at the center of their hearts to find some semblance of peace & stability, some place that has not been ravaged by capitalists & their lackey warmongers.

    We wrote these songs trying to keep their memories in our hearts, & their struggles in our heads. We beg you to stop thinking of the people who cross borders as criminals, & start thinking of them as leaders. Either all are given that peace & stability or none can have it. We hope we live our lives & play our songs in a way that does some justice to those human beings lost between the lines. We hope others are as inspired as we are by the rebels who risk everything for a better future & dream of a better world. Thank you.
