Remember Anthrax and Mort Drucker teaming up for the legendary back cover art for the State of Euphoria album? Well now, FIREZONE teamed up with young and upcoming MAD Magazine illustrator Dennis Pfeil for an exclusive Tiger Blood & Adonis DNA design shirt. This package deal right here contains 1 of the 4 shirts that are put up for pre-order (part of 25 extremely limited edition shirts) + a physical copy of our latest Welcome to the FIREZONE EP + a digital download of the same EP in any format you could possibly desire. The design for this shirt will be different from the regular edition coming out later this year. Six shirts will be spread among band members and artist, 4 are put up for pre-order while the remaining 15 can be bought strictly at our upcoming shows. Shirts are completely black with double sided black & white/ grey print. The front print contains a MAD drawing of your favourite sitcom character with the FIREZONE track name: TIGER BLOOD & ADONIS DNA, while the back contains a large special Pfeil design of our name logo. Be WINNING and don't sleep on this one, cause this specific design will never be reprinted!

lyrics
Firezone- Social Pathology (lyrics: B. Siersema)
no need for repetitive consumption
but to maintain market share function
planned obsolescence, large turnover rates
wasted resources, almost too late
top two percent own more
than fifty percent of the global wealth decor
while eighteen thousand children a day
starve to death, left to decay
the monetary system regulates
money supplies and interest rates
creating currency out of thin air
the result is default, hyperinflation’s the share
exponential money growth
devaluation, the sworn oath
create this anti-economy
with inherent inequality
deceive us, yet we’ve woken up
enslave us, the treadmill stops
depression, the world’s had enough
withdraw green, cast it off like slough
see us, yes we’ve woken up
perpetuated, yet the treadmill stopped
extinction, pretence is bluff
dumping bills, cast all off like slough
cause of pollution, deforestation
climate change, overpopulation
the truth is out, we now know it all
all the world’s central banks must fall
cause of poverty, death from starvation
black gold reigns cold, welcome damnation
the truth is out, we now know it all
socioeconomic system must fall
