THE PREFAB MESSIAHS SHARE THEIR LATEST MUSIC VIDEO “LAST DAY ON EARTH”

“‘LAST DAY ON EARTH’ is the last song on our album, the last video… and now at long last it drops on the longest day of the year, Summer Solstice. It’s a rock and roll riff on mortality, a squawking circus surf tango musing on the Meaning Of Life itself, a fitting end to the whole Psychsploitation Today shebang. The Prefab Messiahs have been shuffling through this Veil of Tears longer than the average caffeinated hipster, so take it from us, kids: Make the minutes count cause The Grim Guy with the Scythe can cancel your contract with no notice. Maybe we’ll meet up at Ground Zero. Meanwhile, enjoy the funny cartoon!” – Xerox Feinberg, Prefab Metaphysician
