about

Not many topics have excited artists as much as the concept of Babylon. Since the dawn of time, the idea of a liberating community either at its sinful peak, or its deserving devastation has been a haven for artistic expression and mythical visualization.

In the second track released out of his upcoming debut album, Iam Nothe dwells into an existential spiral of frustrating inspiration, shaping up to be one of the most dynamic tracks of the record.

"Babylon Burn" picks up a variety of world music references as a starting point, from the mesmerizing narrative of Batsumi to the Mediterranean/Eastern groove of Altin Gün, moulded in an escalating musical structure concluding to a fuzzy rock n roll climax that followers of King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard would appreciate.

lyrics

Babylon Burn

No one knows who can save the world
No one knows No one knows
Who's the god who will end it all

Who's the god who can do no wrong
No one knows no one knows
No one knows who that is
No one knows what this is
We are all in Babylon

Offer wine to the pounding earth
Kneel and dig from a molten hearth
Find the one who can take you there
Find the one with the baleful stare
She was born in Babylon
She was born in Babylon

Oh how I long for your inscription
How I want to know the deeper meaning

I have shrunk my heart to fit in you
All your streets will see the fire soon
I got lost in Babylon
I got lost in Babylon
I got lost in Babylon

Burn Babylon burn baby burn
Burn Babylon burn baby burn
Burn Babylon burn baby burn
Burn Babylon burn baby burn baby
Babylon burn
