about
Burial Mounds is a dark rock explosion hitting the listener instantly - building up to a more atmospheric postrock climax.
The song describes a society governed by total consumerism and short-term solutions that leaves no one unaffected - and above all makes the world an eroded and empty place. A scenery where nature has to pay the highest price as a consequence of capitalism. The song also reflects on the personal dissonance and internal struggle of life choices that fuels the mainstream capitalistic way of life.
As a symbol for this, the album cover (Illusive illustrations) shows the stripes of the extinct Thylacine that was declared extinct in the 20th century due to mankind’s way of living.

lyrics
Sacred burial mounds,
they are covered by the scrap yards and trailer parks A kingdom of fast food dreams and long gone neglected thoughts And they are resting here They are resting upon ancient lives while the machinery keeps your head up high And it moves forward getting closer ...to the end...
A kingdom of fast food dreams
They tell you how to feel
and how we are supposed to breed
A kingdom of scrap yards
upon sacred burial mounds
and it feels just like the right thing here to do
At a distance
it all have color
but up close they are black and white
Yes, at a distance
At a distance it all have color
but up close they are black and white
And they are resting here
They are resting upon ancient lives
while the machinery keeps your head up high And it moves forward getting closer ...to the end...
A kingdom of fast food dreams
They tell you how to feel
and how we are supposed to breed
A kingdom of scrap yards
upon sacred burial mounds
and it feels just like the right thing here to do
they are covered by the scrap yards and trailer parks A kingdom of fast food dreams and long gone neglected thoughts And they are resting here They are resting upon ancient lives while the machinery keeps your head up high And it moves forward getting closer ...to the end...
A kingdom of fast food dreams
They tell you how to feel
and how we are supposed to breed
A kingdom of scrap yards
upon sacred burial mounds
and it feels just like the right thing here to do
At a distance
it all have color
but up close they are black and white
Yes, at a distance
At a distance it all have color
but up close they are black and white
And they are resting here
They are resting upon ancient lives
while the machinery keeps your head up high And it moves forward getting closer ...to the end...
A kingdom of fast food dreams
They tell you how to feel
and how we are supposed to breed
A kingdom of scrap yards
upon sacred burial mounds
and it feels just like the right thing here to do
