sleep_in_the_swamp
Sleep In The Swamp was written, recorded, and mixed by The Moon Runners.
it’s a glitchy, poppy, melancholic song bemoaning the nightmare of life under late-stage capitalism and white supremacy. Life feels like a lost-cause. The horrors are inescapable. You kill what you run from.
