This song comes from a poem by Lewis Carrol and was featured in the book Alice in Wonderland. The song is about a knights quest to kill a fearsome and terrifying creature called the Jabberwock or Jabberwocky. The style of the poem/song features an ingenious play on made up words.
'Welcome to the Battery' features Ali Cameron on vocals. Philip Tindley produced and mixed the song, using instruments solely drawn from Apple Logic Pro X recording software. Using a 1990's dance style, this unsettlign track draws from a 1980's Compassion in World Farming cinema advertisement, advocating the farming of free-range eggs, or more specifically, protesting against the cruel practises of battery farming. It achieved some notoriety when it was banned as it described putting humans in place of the chicken's experience.
