about

Phil Hester writer/artist extraordinaire is the first owner of Sunset After Armageddon, which takes reference and influence from his sweet ass comic, Golly! If you haven't read it you should!

lyrics

The party's over. The show is done. We threw the fight & no one one. The circus left. Curtain drawn. With the airwaves bought & the stereo on. There're no more rebel songs. So pick yourself up before the floor is touched by the morning sun. Dead men don't have dreams. So start living or accept your eulogy. Any thoughts dying atheist? "The apocalypse has been cancelled due to a lack of interest." How long can we keep this up? Working well into the dusk. Darkest darkness before the dawn. Then we can sing all day long. Stop drowning, kick your legs. Let go of the flaming floating keg. Roll over, shake, play dead, & beg. Spend every summer sweating by the peg. History is best left handwritten. Are we really waiting for Armageddon? Darling we must die to be reborn every night. Retire to reincarnate, new sparks ignite. Brightest flames burn so quick. And you've been burning the candle at both ends of the wick.
