Ekko Astral’s lyrics ideate a dissonance, disgust, and confusion, all while embodying the rich DC DIY scene. They never hesitate to call out the profiteers and architects of this apocalypse, but guide listeners towards solutions rooted in community care. The band’s music ushers in advocacy, optimism, and plans for a brighter tomorrow.
