Behind The Tracks: Deer Lord - Intelligent Life (Single) (2024)

Intelligent Life is accurately depicted in the single artwork, which we are very proud of. The story revolves around the concept of space invaders coming down to Earth, a concept that has been well-documented since the United States military started nuclear weapons testing. Upon their arrival, we launch all available nuclear weapons from all nations at the impending attack, which, as a species, is our most powerful form of defense. Little do we know that these interstellar invaders have been documenting our obsession with nuclear weapons, designing defenses against them since the 1950s. After launching our nuclear counterattack, the invaders remain unfazed in the atmosphere, striking back with full force, using our own technology against us, sending humanity back into the Stone Age.

We believe the different stages and change-ups in the song represent the space invaders arriving to Earth, humanity coming together to defend itself against the space invaders, and the alien nuclear counterattack.
