You know I love PONTY POOL and believe any original advancement of the end times mythology deserves a loud affirming clap clap clap. That’s why I’m crazy over the dark dubplate style collaboration between Kode 9 & Spaceape on the album Memories of the Future. The specific music video I refer to reveals a stylishly high contrast world. Black and white laboratory study into an apocalyptic auditory infection that kills animals and humans in equally easy measure. 9 Samurai combines both stunning visuals and singularly powerful bass rhythms, heavily influenced by modern UK grime. Turn up the stereo and accept your fate.
It’s a tad more 1950′s science fiction than I had originally suspected, but the zombie invasion will assuredly begin with mindless insect giants. Hordes of irradiated ant monsters the size of suburban homes will level man’s puny infrastructure. Steel bridges undulate and swing while concrete skyscrapers tumble and collapse. Don’t forget about the human bodies, halved by truck-sized mandibles, trampled under the armies of the insect undead.
Researchers at Texas A&M and The University of Texas at Austin thereby pose an interesting question; Is it wise to introduce a foreign parasite to remove a nonnative pest? That followed by the no-less-important question: Will these nuclear-powered monster zombie ants be capable of telekinesis a la STARSHIP TROOPERS?
