You always hurt the ones you love, Vicious cycle/hand-in-glove, Narcissist creatures, Put on the best fucking act! Yeah! It is not O.K.! Fuck you and your pain! You'll make them all pay! It is not O.K.! Yeah! It's a psychopath's play! Confusion twists your face, Narcissist creatures, Put on the best fucking act! Yeah! Blood from your ego, Blood from my spite, Your drama/no mind, Fuck you in your eye!

Somewhere along the way, Motherfuckers took seriously a play, Took all that agriculture, And kept it from the people, Aggression accident of nature, Assholes being assholes, Now look where that's got us! White men privilege, Fucked it all up! Let someone have it, Let them have it, White guy privilege, Fucked it all up! Let someone else have it, Let them have it, You asshole!

This ain't no night flight, We ain't meeting the Night Man, We got it going on, But we don't have it going good, This, this, this, this, this, this is the night hunt, Searching in the night, Night hunt, It's gonna be alright. We ain't the night wolves, Christine we ain't afraid of... We ain't huntin' deer, rabbit or boar, This is the night hunt, Searching in the night, Night hunt, It's gonna be alright. We aren't night riders, Night Rangers ain't gonna stop us, Looking round and round, See it ain't this, Night Rangers ain't gonna stop us, Because this is... Because this is... This is the night hunt, Searching in the night, Night hunt, It's gonna be alright. Nite Hunt! Searching in the night! Nite Hunt! It's gonna be alright!

about

North Georgia purveyors of space rock and noise, Unus Mundus, experienced a revelation in the year 2017 and became forged in metal through nuclear-strength fires of their own making! Spurred on by creative energy, hardship and conviction the band released "Staring at the Sun" in May of 2018, on their own Bare White Walls Music LTD label. It features nine cuts that dangerously plumbs the depths of existence in order to harness sonic power!

Don’t take our word for it! As Andreas Holma of Road to Jerusalem says… “That was fuckin' raw! I like it! You totally captured the essence of what Rock'N'Roll is all about.”

Dale Hilton, “The Heavy Metal Comedian,” says… “I finally heard Staring into the Sun. Dude that's angry monster metal!!! Fuck yeah!!! I love it. The solo smelled a little like GWAR. You guys sound like HIGH ON FIRE & MOTORHEAD got into a fist fight in the mud. It sounded like it should be in a MAD MAX movie.”

And there's this gem (we love you, Gordon)... "PUNCH YOURSELF IN THE FACE: Noisy, guitar-heavy, industrial space-rock band Unus Mundus released its newest album, Staring at the Sun, back in early May. The group is hosting a public listening party for it Thursday, July 19 at Blue Sky. Then it’s having an official album release live show at Flicker Theatre & Bar on Aug. 17. The record only runs nine tracks, but that’s plenty. You get the idea clearly after the first couple, and this release marks the band’s fourth release in less than a year, so you know it’s not afraid of overkill. The tunes pretty much all fall within the descriptors I used in the first sentence. While everyone on this has completely firm pedigrees in Athens’ underground dark-rock-aggro-industrial scene—insofar as there ever really has been one—over the past 25 years or so, this record isn’t terribly forward-thinking or particularly regressive, either. It’s loud and ugly and has a tendency to be exceedingly annoying, and I’ve no doubt at all that’s exactly how they wanted it. Listen without prejudice over at unusmundus.bandcamp.com, and join the club at facebook.com/TheeUnusMundus."
