Plasmaguns
Type: Armor Unit
Prepared for covert war against technofascists, and their successors In deepsuits, we ventured in their compounds, and gunned down all of them Explosions of blood, halls painted red Flashing with blue light from plasma shells One of us entangled in nanowire nets Sliced into a thousand pieces of scrap Reinforcements soon came rushing in A high-frequency blade sliced their numbers thin Venomous toxins exhaled through the vents But we acquired a dimensional clicker nonetheless To make our way out, and find a way to survive Silence out all future noise, and hide from all life Before we move: destroy the enemy The barrel glows from the heat Plasmaguns firing on repeat Smoldering corpses mark the trail As we make for our escape

Revolutions In Saecula tells the story of two freedom fighters, 20.000 years into the future, whose society and star system is threatened by another civilization. In a desperate attempt to dismantle their imminent subjugation, one of the two, Kasa, eventually becomes stranded alone behind enemy lines. Trapped in a world of technofascists who are human in their DNA but act nothing like modern definitions of such, Kasa discovers this is but the first of frightening truths to be revealed about our universe…

This story is told in about 30 minutes through twenty songs, each representing a chapter; the upcoming physical release will have more visual cues to aid in this sonic/nerdy journey through space.

Type: Armor Unit is a new solo offering by Owen Swerts (Days Of Desolation, Dahmer Duck, etc.), aiming to become an audiographic universe with complex world-building and expression through media beyond purely musical ones.
