Remember the last time you used that old Cyclotron you stuffed in the attic? Well, it didn't sound like this, so I dunno what Mister Thirdorgan is alluding to?
Most of us have now upgraded to modern particle accelerators anyway, so the sound of the Cyclotron belongs firmly in the era of Elvis and Jerry Lee, when statutory rape was called marriage.
Thats the best Industrial culture reference I could come up with for the title, except that its also a good word, that could also suggest the birth of really dodgy science and its insideous influence on modern existence. Ah the good ol' days, when everyone thought everything was shit and couldn't wait to get to the future. Now we know the future is even shitter than the Fifties, and the prospects of the future after this are not looking too rosey.
Nowadays, we have the massive particle accelerators at CERN in Switzerland,where atoms have been smashed to reveal 99% of all of the elementary particles that made up the previously elemental particles that we thought we knew about. Including the semi-mythical 'God' particle, the 'Higgs Boson'.A particle that ,in theory could trigger a rapidly expanding vacuum bubble that could wipe out the known universe.This theory of a Higgs boson doomsday, where a quantum fluctuation creates this vacuum "bubble" isn't likely to happen anytime soon, but,on the other hand it may have already happened, and the bubble might be on its way here now. And you won't know because it's going at the speed of light so there's not going to be any warning.
Even more intriguingly is the theory that would prevent this from happening and stablise the universe infinitely, 'Super Symmetry'.This suggests that every particle has an anti-twin to balance it out.Raising the distinct possiblity that there is a shadow version of yourself lurking somewhere in the Higgs Field, possiblity doing all the things you hate in other people.Somewhere there's a shadow Akihiro Shimizu (Thirdorgan man)making melodic danceable sunshine pop thats in the charts on an Earth thats populated by a species of human that gives a shit about the consequences of their actions. Sadly, there's more evidence that we are on the brink of Doomsday.
So basically the meaning of this album is, if one doomsday scenario doesn't get you, another one certainly will.The favourite being limited Human longevity, closely followed by imminent evironmental collapse.

I can honestly state that your post is far more entertaining and interesting than the music offed on it.
Would you believe that some people actually say the opposite!!!???...unbelieveable I know. In fact I find writing the posts far more entertaining than most of the music also. Especially the Noise stuff which i find rather tedious.
Glad you are entertained.
well, i luvs what i hear! tedium or no tedium!!! thanxxx!!
You'd think the Chinese of all people would've learned something by now about the consequences of eradicating an animal species to near-extinction. Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose, I guess.
Absolutely! They,like we, are gonna have to learn the hard way...bizarrely it even makes me wanna support Trumps trade war with the fuckers. They won't rest until they've turned this planet into a toxic desert.
I visit everyday. Thanks for your always interesting insight and providing stuff from the other side of the track.
