WATCH: “End of the World: by Marble Ghosts

With their self titled debut EP out now, Marble Ghosts has released the video for the song “End of the World.” Filmed in February by Ryan Stacey at their EP release show at The 27 Club in Ottawa, the band says this of the song,

“‘End of the World’ is cynical and angry and reflects the mentality of a millennial generation that grew up being told that their actions would make a difference in the world, and they didn’t. Late-stage capitalism dividing the rich and the poor, rampant homelessness and environmental devastation, ‘End of the World’ is the anthem for those disillusioned by the fact that greed persists despite these devastating problems and is even celebrated by the likes of Elon Musk, a man who can lose 41 billion and still be the richest man in the world. We live in a world where billionaires invest in space tourism and multi-million dollar vanity projects when millions can’t afford housing and when the world in some cases is literally burning, and the people who can help lack the affluence and ability to do so.”
