This week's Heavy Song of the Week features Alien Weaponry's '1000 Friends,' addressing the dark impact of social media amidst political tensions. The New Zealand thrash band, known for their focus on Māori heritage, shifts to explore the dystopian realities created by social media's pervasiveness. With powerful riffs, they warn of the potential alienation linked to disconnecting from these platforms, emphasizing how it feels nearly impossible to escape this digital norm. Their commentary resonates deeply, resonating well beyond the track's conclusion.
The human mind wasn't built to comprehend the world we are currently living in.
The message of the song lingers long after the final notes dissipate.
