Underground Music Coalition


The recent combined efforts of Apparatus Revolution and several east coast bands has forged a compilation in which should not lightly be reckoned with. I'm speaking of "The Apparatus Revolution Presents: The COMP 2" which features bands such as FIVE FOUND DEAD, WHEN THEY ALL FELL, MOURING WAITS, SYDBARRET, THE FULL BODY KARATE, STORM(O), AFTERFIRE, ASSUALT, MURDEROUS PERFECTION, DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS, LAID TO REST, INNERCORE, CRIMZN, DIVISION CHAOS and FORGETTING TOMORROW. The union of musical vision, orchestrated angst and collaborated rebellion has created this infectious project in which I am proud to have become a part of. Get yourself a copy today from some of these distributors: iTunes, Napster, Amazon just to name a few. For more info visit Apparatus Revolution on MySpace

I sang for FIVE FOUND DEAD and the track that's featured on The COMP 2 is "Field of Broken Dreams". My inspiration came from a bum wearing a billboard stating "The END is HERE". I guess in his disorientated, booze-ridden state, he felt like his pre-apocolyptic message was a prediction for the future existence of civilization, or maybe he was just cold and crazy. Either way, I began to think on this for while. Initially I thought maybe he was crazed and did not know what was happenning at that moment. Then I questioned if he was aware of the fact that our world is full of constant turmoil, civil oppression and violent crimes against humanity? Was he a prophet? Was he a messenger of God? Nevertheless I began to come to sorts with a few lyrical ideas like maybe for someone someday there will be no tomorrow. Maybe the future will be dead. Do the Mayans have the answers? Is that why the Mayan calendar fortells that there will be a great catastrophe on Sunday, December 23rd, 2012 that will competely wipeout the human race except for a chosen few by a higher power? I tried to express to anyone who listened to the track that we all need to expel our demons and work to become a race of people with a soul desire to strengthen our mortality, a race......set to survive.
