about

Clear Cut was written to raise awareness about the struggle of the Wet'suwet'en people to resist the construction of the Coastal GasLink pipeline across their unceded territory, as well as the Canadian government's hypocritical support of industry over people via the use of militarized raids. Learn more here: www.yintahaccess.com

All proceeds from Clear Cut are to be donated to the land defenders and water protectors of the Wet'suwet'en via the Wet'suwet'en Hibi C'in music project: wetsuwetenhibicin.bandcamp.com

Special thanks to the land defenders and water protectors of Wet'suwet'en, to Marlene Hale, and to Lee Reed for consulting with us and approving the lyrics, audio, and artwork for this project.

lyrics

Great Rights and Freedoms, safeguarded for all
Except Indigenous protectors of living land, or ''capital''

Eyes on Wet'suwet'en
Armed goon squads with chainsaws
Hush those convictions, bud
'cause this here's Canada

We built this company for mining and oil
With a national narrative to appease us

Peacekeeping tree huggers
The ''too woke'' Left
Shut them down and drive them out
Clear cut until there's nothing left

Fascists among us, sharing our flags
Perpetuating toxic folklore
Invoke identity to rile up the base
Support for industry via... hate

All for the interests of oligarchs
All in the name of ''core values''
All in spite of our doom

Some would say we excel at apology
While denying our genocide history

Old patriarchs run us, sharing our flags
Perpetuating toxic dogma
Invoke economy to rile up the base
To ignore the looming...

Crisis, a few years left until it all falls
Until then, sanctify Whiteness and protect oil jobs
Unwanted colony, our home on Native land
''True patriot love'' comes from those who dare to take a stand

about

Derelict Montréal, Québec

Hailing from Montreal, Derelict mixes the brutal and technical elements of the Quebec metal scene with listenable structures and melody, resulting in an unforgiving yet accessible package. The band’s trademark sound has led to comparisons with the likes of Death, Strapping Young Lad, and The Black Dahlia Murder. ... more
