Civilisation I

by Kero Kero Bonito

Civilisation I cover art

Shedding the noisy rock guitars of their previous era, the British trio returns to their electronic roots with a significantly more ambitious, progressive scope. The production utilizes purely vintage hardware synthesizers to craft bright, deceptively upbeat soundscapes masking dark lyrical themes regarding climate change and global conflict. It served as the compelling first half of a two-part conceptual project.
