Pitchshifter frontman JS Clayden offered:
“I thought that everything was as messed up as it was going to get in the year 2000 when we originally released the ‘Everything’s Fucked’ single; but we’re two decades down the road and the lyrics are still applicable. We’re living in a slow-motion apocalypse. What better way to finally jockey clown ship earth off the bluffs than a re-issue of a 20-year-old tune lamenting the madness with a bunch of like-minded deviant provocateurs, and some live dates?”
The live dates Clayden mentioned include the following 2021 UK shows.

11/30 Manchester, UK – Manchester Academy
12/01 Bristol, UK – SWX (feat. Raging Speedhorn)
