Pastpresentfuture tells the history of life on Earth – without using a single word. Instead, music relates the story as it was, is, and will be – the slow emergence of a livable planet; the accelerating energy of flourishing life, both tranquil and frenetic; the destruction, pain, and observers' lament of the present, as a single species claims catastrophic lordship over all others; and the inevitable conflict of the future, when a serious resistance emerges from among the powerful to fight for both the immediate lives and a livable future for all the world's beings. Musically, pastpresentfuture features beautiful, tranquil reposes; harrowing, shocking riffs; pounding, primal grooves. A song of peace and hope, war and desperation; liberation and vitality, subjugation and destitution; enlightenment and wisdom, blindness and arrogance; pastpresentfuture is a celebration of what was, an indictment of what is, and a warning of what will come.
