Duke Of Earl

from Darklife Anthology by death's dynamic shroud

NUWRLD Mixtape Club exclusive

lyrics

"This is a strange, short-lived version of “Killed The Duke of Earl” and “Where Does It Come From?” When we all got together for the final recording sessions in February of 2022, one of our missions was to make “KTDOE” better, because it wasn’t strong enough to be on the album. So we decided to cut out the middle section of the song and replace it with something new. We ended up writing “WDICF?” We listened back to what we had done, and it became immediately obvious that “WDICF?” should be its own song, and that “KTDOE” would need to be cut from Darklife. We would end up adding piano, strings, and harp to “WDICF?” too, but this is what it all would’ve sounded like had we not decided to do any of that." - Tech

"It's still crazy to me that 'Where Does It Come From?' started as a Hail Mary to try to salvage the work we had done on 'Killed The Duke Of Earl.' I separated from Tech and Keith, locked myself in my room, sat on my bed crosslegged with my guitar and didn't come out until I had the new song. Making 'WDICF' its own song was the only correct choice, but this combined version I do feel works as an emotional prog journey. It's especially cool because it's Tech singing Keith's lyrics and then I sing my song - all three of us in there." - James
