Ross shares that …

“From a lyrical and thematic perspective ‘Everything Is Black’ is about the apocalypse. The interpretation of the song’s meaning is really going to depend on the individual listener. The artwork is really a reflection on those themes of death, the Apocalypse, doom and gloom. The good old Grim Reaper. All those ‘fun things’, and was done by my good friend and Tattoo artist, Wayne Pictor. I love it!

For me, there’s a direct stab at governments and corporations who continue to destroy the world, but that’s not exactly what the song is about. It’s inspired by that doom feeling, for sure, and is one of the more cathartic tunes I’ve written (on a personal level). That’s why we included ‘War Pigs’ from Black Sabbath as a cover with this release. It’s one of the most iconic anti-establishment / anti-war songs ever written.

Having said all this, my approach to interviews and questions regarding what my music is about, I’ve decided to limit, as I feel that the philosophical wave I’m riding at the moment is all about the listener, their interpretation, and making sure that I don’t too deeply influence their personal connection with my music.”
