Don't Make The Lord Wait

“Algorithmic Truth” confronts the invisible systems shaping modern reality — the recommendation engines, moderation filters, and unseen code that quietly determines what voices rise, which ones disappear, and how truth itself is framed. Set against the raw backbone of Appalachian Americana and Outlaw Southern Rock, the song fuses analog grit with a digital-age warning.

This track speaks to the growing realization that freedom of expression is no longer suppressed only by force, but by math — by engagement metrics, shadow bans, and automated judgments made without accountability. “Algorithmic Truth” rejects passive consumption and calls for awareness, discernment, and human agency in an era where machines increasingly mediate reality.

Musically, the song blends traditional roots instrumentation with subtle synth textures, reinforcing the tension between old truths passed hand to hand and new systems that sort, rank, and silence at scale. It stands as both a protest and a refusal — a declaration that truth does not belong to platforms, code, or gatekeepers.

“Algorithmic Truth” is part of We’re Basically Done, a 35-song protest album documenting cultural fracture, institutional decay, and the quiet rebellion rising across working-class America and beyond.

This song is also part of the Basically Done Original Soundtrack — the official musical companion to Donald E. Pickett’s novel Basically Done and the upcoming Basically Done series/franchise. Together, the music and narrative form a unified cultural chronicle, blending fiction, lived experience, and protest into a single evolving universe.

The Script’s gift for writing songs rich with heady emotions and ever bigger melodies has enamoured fans all over the world, leading to a catalogue of global hits such as ‘Hall of Fame’, ‘The Man Who Can’t Be Moved’, ‘Superheroes’ and ‘Breakeven’. But following the tragic loss of founder member Mark Sheehan in 2023, his bandmates Danny O’Donoghue and Glen Power vowed that the best way to pay tribute to him would be to continue the band they had built together and reconnect with The Script’s worldwide family.

Returning with their upcoming album ‘Satellites’, The Script have made a life-affirming record, bringing a fiery new energy to their anthemic, arena-filling sound. The Script prove that there can be new horizons and light after the darkness.

2024 will see The Script tour internationally as special guests to P!NK before they add to a career total of 4 million ticket sales by embarking upon a huge UK and European headline arena tour in November. Having already achieved so much - 10 billion streams, 12 million album sales, 6 UK #1 albums - an exciting new chapter in The Script’s journey is underway, and the possibilities are endless.
