Space Cadet G. M.
A strange vessel emerges from the nebula. No signs of life on board, yet the ship moves as if fully functional. The hull is tattered and debris surround the ship. As it approaches us, we finally get a glance at the cabin, and find that the entire crew is comprised of animated skeletons, activating the controls with their rickety hands and rattling their bones while they push their ship towards us! We try to steer our ship away, but they are faster than us. Fear overwhelms us as we suddenly realize that we are doomed, for the skeletons are already within us....

Serpens Nebula

Every Breath You Take always struck us as a creepy song. That's why we flipped it to a minor key and dialed up the stalker to 11 in this synthwave/slasherwave rendition. This cover is part of our Stowaway Ants EP, out December 11 2020.

Every Breath You Take

The year is 2584, the first interstellar colony ship is set to leave earth-orbit after almost three decades of construction and tests. A massive 300 000+ crew, the best and brightest spirits of every country on Earth, has undertaken a long and gruelling selection and training process, and they are all eager to make humanity the first multi-stellar species.

Unbeknownst to them, a tiny group of opportunists has endeavoured to thwart their pretentious plans. A few thousand ants have managed to climb aboard one of the last shipments of goods from the Cape Canaveral supply rocket launching ground with their queen.

Will these resourceful insects survive the centuries of interstellar travel that awaits them?
Will they beat humanity to the punch and become the first species to set foot on an exoplanet?
