Horror grips us as we watch you die
All we can do is echo your anguished cries
Stare as all human feelings die
We are leaving, you don't need us


Prophetic words from Crosby, Stills, and Nash have now come to pass; Helena Ford presents a series of improvisations based on her new album, “A N I M A L/A N I M A L: Praise the L-RD, Praise G-D as A Call for Violence”. Helena is a Chicago-based improvisor that wields Godspeed You! Black Emperor style loops, dense doom metal, and free improvisation to express the haunted ideological landscape we find ourselves in today.
