Song 1: Loss Of Life




Set in the city ruins, an entity finds itself on the run from the authoritarian regime. A chase ensues. The entity shakes the heat but in a moment of respite realises it’s mortally wounded. A sudden, violent eruption of life as the entity fades away.












Song 2: Wayfarer’s Wail



A scavenger wanders the rural wastes of East Yorkshire, hunting supplies and trinkets. Suddenly a shrill noise cries out, calm shattered as the footsteps stop dead in their tracks, a heartbeat thumps slowly, anxiously. Again, the noise is back and the heartbeat quickens, faster, faster until... Nothing, the heartbeat steadies as one foot after the other the journey resumes.

A Wayfarer’s Wistful Wail fills the air as beams of sunlight breach through thick radioactive dust. It’s sound a divine screaching cry.

An emergency broadcast crackles to life warning of a radiaoctive storm inbound,howling, whistling, roaring. Scavenger sprinting through to safety, as the fallout presses on theres a brief moment of respite at the eye of the storm. All too soon it continues it’s relentless battering of the land. Eventually withering, passing onward to new horizons, the atmosphere settles. The footsteps however, continue as the scavenger marches on through the wastes once more.
A scavenger wanders the rural wastes of East Yorkshire, hunting supplies and trinkets. Hiding from potential threats, trekking endlessly into the sunset.
