about

Squalor is based out of the essay and book entitled Planet of Slums written by Mike Davis. Human beings are facing the staggering problems of super-sized poverty of a scale unbelievable to most western minds. Super slums consisting of populations in the several millions of people plague the outlining cities of the largest cities in the third world. Their plights will become our plights as the world slowly understands that we are all inhabitants on this earth, one small planet under extreme duress.

lyrics

Squalor

Urban Climacteria - Epochal Migrations Violence of Adjustment - Rotting Social Residuum
This Poisoned Chalice of Liberalization Mass Pauperization
Immiserated Megacities Micro-Accumulation
Sub-Subsistence
Surplus Humanity

Forced into City Sprawl – Fled from Rural Night
Informal Subsistence – Villas Miseria

To Squat Amongst the Shadows of Refineries
Life Amongst the Trailings

Mountains of Trash
Rusting Debris
Toxic Digital Dumps
Urban Involution

Highways Through Canyons of Smoldering Garbage
Ruined Industries
Sewers Teeming with Raw Waste

Garbage Heaps are the Food Table for the Abject Poor
Rotting in Sordid Squalor
Rotting in Sordid Squalor

Absolute Poverty
Dense Survival Niches
Slum Sprawl
In a Planet of Slums
