Ottawa-based rockers Marble Ghosts have teamed up with Metal Insider to premiere a video for their latest single, “Eat The Rich.” The politically-charged track is a take on wealth disparity and corporate greed. Released as a taste for what’s to come, the song is taken from their upcoming sophomore EP, The Greatest Divide, set for release on April 4.
Vocalist Dylan Gunnell comments:
“This song ‘Eat The Rich’ is about the ultra-wealthy, and the great divide is clear with every billion added to their coffers while the people that enrich them through a broken system continue to suffer. While the chorus is metaphorical, in writing the lyrics, the band also envisioned an alternate reality where our planet has been devastated by a zombie plague. The ultra-rich are waiting for a shuttle to carry them to Mars, but it malfunctions, and they are trapped. The undead descend on them, and they are torn to pieces by the horde, the horde that once worked for them, that kept capitalism strong, the people that made them rich. In that reality, their fair share will be paid with a pound of their flesh.”
