History Of Guns has shared another track, "When You Don't Matter", from its approaching album, Half Light, due on 20 June via Liquid Len Recording Company.
"I think most people know of either a moment, or something sadly longer when you're on your own, and no one knows where you are, how you are, or even if you're alive or dead. I think this, like a History Of Guns version of a ballad, for abandonment. But whenever we have something we think is beautiful, we always have to smash it up somehow. From an existential point of view, it might be true, maybe we don't matter. We are meaning-seeking creatures in a world with no objective meaning. Ultimately we have to find a way to make ourselves matter to ourselves", says multi-instrumentalist Max Rael.
Del Alien adds: "It's like the vain attempt to help people. Maybe they know it, maybe they don't. It's not a personal thing, is it? Is this what society has done to us? Is it worth you thinking about? Getting cold in a box just to be burned and scattered to the wind, only to end up in the mouth of a dying junkie… or like sleeping with the sanest lunatic you ever met, but there's no one there in the morning to make you breakfast. If the product is not good from the start, how can it be in the end? Losing the place you stand, just to hold another's hand".
