Taking one of my occasional forays into "alternative or underground" music which often seems to lead to some weird confluence or insight on life atonal or "extra-tonal," some harmonious convergence or commentary on Life in the So-Called Space Age emerges.
Today the agency for that is from a group that called itself "God Lives Underwater."
Sadly, the group no longer exists though a fan site can be found here.
The Wikipedia entry/epitaph states:
God Lives Underwater was an industrial rock band from rural Perkiomenville, Pennsylvania (near Philadelphia), formed in 1993 by band members David Reilly and Jeff Turzo. God Lives Underwater was originally signed to American Recordings after being discovered by Rick Rubin, who subsequently produced the band's first two albums. Prior to the band's breakup, there were two other members, Andrew McGee and Scott Garret, and one ex-member, Adam Kary.
The band produced an Extended Play (EP) in 1995. Later that year, they released their first studio album, Empty. In 1998, they released another studio album, Life in the So-Called Space Age. It was their first and only album to ever chart, peaking #6 on Heatseekers, and #137 on the Billboard 200. Later that year, the released their second EP, Rearrange. In 2004, God Lives Underwater released their last album, Up Off The Floor. One year later, lead singer David Reilly died in his sleep, after the band's breakup.
God bless.
