Machiavellian Art and Riot Season Records present Population Control. An intense exploration of societal and self-imposed controls, encapsulated in a dynamic contrast between Side A's visceral anger and the introspective ambiance of Side B. This duality mirrors the contrasting themes of external control versus internal reflection. Population Control extends beyond its predecessor, Indoctrination Sounds, in both musical depth and thematic scope. The album confronts a broad spectrum of modern-day addictions -- not just to substances, but to technology, social media, and the relentless 24-hour news cycle. These themes manifest across tracks like "A Slow Death," "Population Control (1) + (2)," "Fear of the Outside World," and "Crisis," each exploring the resulting isolation, paranoia, fear, and hopelessness. "Seaside Holiday," a critique of environmental negligence, specifically highlighting the issue of untreated sewage being dumped into Britain's waterways by private companies. Limited-edition lilac colored vinyl LP with download code.
