With a month to go until the October 04th release of their new album “Gone Dark“, Human Impact (Unsane, Cop Shoot Cop, etc.) have issued the final advance single from the record. “Corrupted” is the title for this latest cut, with the band offering:
“Corrupted: The insatiable greed of big pharma which has forced a large segment of the population into addiction, homelessness, mental illness, and desperation.
While the track was written looking at this endless dehumanizing vampirism on a more widespread level, the video for ‘Corrupted‘ specifically looks at the opioid epidemic, and its evolution into the prevalence of fentanyl and meth. This crisis was created by corporate design, aggressively sold to medical professionals, health insurers and patients, and has permanently altered our society, culture and families. Additionally, our history of criminally prosecuting addicts rather than providing treatment provides cheap labor for a privatized prison system – yet another inhuman method of generating more profits.”
