The city is restless. It's had its heart torn out. The city's incessant cries fall silently on the ears of those with the energy to make a difference, but neither the heart nor the will to do anything to save it. Thus, shamefully, the city burns itself alive. But as this disquiet breaks the skin and festers in the veins of the city, it's belly swells with the fuel of fire. That fuel seeps out and stains four New York motherfuckers - Scoditti, Cañedo, Cain, Harris - who read through the rhetoric, see through the lies, and cut through the flesh of a world in winter sardonically giftwrapped in "glorious" summer. Countering violence with violence, the four - dubbed "The Last Gang In Town" by nobody in particular - hold the world in contempt. Too loud, too irreverent, too confident, too passionate to be relevant in this world of soulless "art-as-commodity" impostors, the Last Gang deliver angry, horny beats without an objective - but not without a passion. Through their performance, a unifying idea seems evident: The night is reaching its end. Things are getting worse. Reaction is no longer a luxury, but a force of circumstance. Now, comrade, you have one choice to make... Love or Perish!
