unapologetic and direct, "butchers block" hits out at the cowardice of complacency. in a world so politically and morally corrupt, silence for the sake of comfort is choosing the side of the oppressor, and in the current political state of the world, where its peoples lives and rights at stake, it is that deep. and sage is here to tell it like it is.

We’re all red/Disconnected from reality/See no evil taste no evil/Ignorance preserves sanity/A vessel for rotting flesh/Refusing to make amends/ Convenience warrants death

-lyrics for "butchers block"

sage captures the true essence of punk not just as a genre but as a subculture; loud, rage filled, and unafraid to take a stand for what she believes in. punk is all about expression and rebellion, themes that are so consistent in her music and her as a person. punk is so much better when its genuine, and "butchers block" is truly a cut above the rest.
