War. Death. Famine. Conquest.

By Ryan Bracha and Misery Prize

A Broken Mirror for a Broken Society.

Misery Prize's second album, WAR. DEATH. FAMINE. CONQUEST., is a concept record that pulls no punches - a furious, unflinching look at the rot beneath the surface of modern life. It speaks uncomfortable truths, throws flaming arrows in every direction, and dares you to look away.

Each track tells a story - of people, power, greed, and decay - the very forces fuelling the collapse of decency and empathy in our world. To further hammer his miserable point home, Misery Prize frontman and cult author Ryan Bracha has written a series of short stories that expand on the dark, satirical universe conjured in the songs.

These tales don't just echo the themes - they crack them open and make you stare inside.

Featuring exclusive, hand-crafted collage artwork by visual anarchist Jeff Honky Collins, this companion book is a standalone punch to the gut - but experienced alongside the album, it becomes something far more immersive. More devastating. More complete.

This is the written soundtrack to a society in flames.
