FLOOD: Brutus VIII Takes Inspiration from Don DeLillo and Paul Auster on Satiric New Track “Building a Bomb”

Maintaining his familiar post-punk vocal incantations, the new track explores more maximalist sounds across industrial metal and no wave while Katz’s lyrics dip into political satire inspired by Don DeLillo’s Mao II and Paul Aster’s Leviathan. “It’s me poking fun at performative political activism while also expressing some fears about domestic terrorism,” he shares. “In the last decade it seems casual mass violence has become the new normal. This makes me profoundly uncomfortable. The lyrics and music are written to reflect that.”
