[kid cue]

the whole album is about London and rave. the alien virus stuff is a metaphor for bass waves. everybody can feel bass, that's why dubstep is actually becoming popular outside of London, even though it's dark and paranoid. that's what Hyperdub was about, back when it was just Kode9's website for interviews instead of his record label. the words go with the sounds, which are about a sort of stripped down, decaying interpretation of UK hardcore.
