The Outrage Machine (eleventyseven Remix)

by The Get Right Band

/

about

Once in a while we like to send one of our songs to our friend Matt Langston (of eleventyseven and Rock Candy Recordings) and say, "put your unicorn magic on this please." This time around we sent him The Outrage Machine from our most recent album, iTopia. The song is about the dark side of the screen (to steal a line from Edwin Arnaudin who reworked a line from Pink Floyd)... the anti-social side of social media. Matt reimagined the song as a dark, electronic, dancey, slightly dubstepy journey through techno madness and we freaking love it. What better day than Friday the 13th in the month of October to release this remix?!

lyrics

marching into battle with a standard issue iPhone
fighting for the future from the war room that is my home
loving every minute that i’m in it on my war thrown
fingers on the trigger I get bigger I get more known

words make mighty weapons as the poet trolls have shown
words can win elections even if they can’t break bones
i don’t fear rejection from a world that i’ve disowned
i reject you first I’ll do just fine all on my own

i’m working for the outrage machine
making nightmares out of everybody’s dreams

i can capture all your moments i can capture all your focus
i can push all of your buttons i’m a master of hypnosis
i can activate emotions with the motion of my phone
when i capture your attention you are mine you are owned

i can buy you i can sell you i can tell you where to go
i can feed you all the facts that you’ll ever need to know
you’ll thank me you’ll pay me you’ll let me in your home
i’ll sell off all your secrets but you’ll never be alone

i’m working for the outrage machine
making nightmares out of everybody’s dreams
