Universal Unit Crime
by Fall Shock
I approached the writing of "Universal Unit Crime" in a different way compared to "Interior", also because DAM and I come from two very distant realities.
I preferred not to tell DAM "what to play", I simply explained my mood to him, and tried to make him understand that the songs in Universal Unti Crime spoke of something that he too could feel and experience.
His approach to writing the guitar parts without knowing what I wanted specifically led to effective riffs of a magnificent simplicity.
I won’t deny that this album feels almost venomous, in fact someone told me they feel "such a weird itchy feeling to everything" .
In this new album I didn't talk about myself, that chapter is closed for me, I instead gave space to my disapproval of the "crimes" that I am a witness of in our daily lives.
Someone not being accepted because they are "different" can slowly lead to isolation and self-elimination of oneself, and this album is dedicated to two people in my life who passed away in 2023, left alone by their community and the system to fight their battles.
"Universal Unit Crime" is also a reflection on social media, where some lead a life beyond their means that will eventually be their own guillotine.
My contempt for children who deny and exploit their parents out of greed, parents who are now in the winter of their lives, more fragile than a newborn… these are just some of the topics I address in this new chapter, this new album.
