'The People Did Not Like It Here' is an animated short by Jayne Helliwell. It is about our wasteful world. As people we are extractive and abusive and as a result or world is ending. Any one would think we did not like it here. No action and no preserving means we will soon be gone. No question.

Using hand-drawn and collage techniques, this animation was largely put together in After Effects with music created by Andy Telling.

It has been screened at

An animated short.

It's the immediately gratifying likes of the sickeningly-titled aforementioned and 'Lips Like Suicide' that continue to be Trencher's stock in trade, but the diversions from everything expected on Lips demonstrate that the band have far more strings to their flaming bow than ever expected. Adventurous without ever becoming alienating, Lips is a finely tuned second album of unmitigated violence and staggeringly brutal bombast. It's fucking beautiful, and beautifully mind fucking.

Best pray to be an acolyte come that fateful day, brother.

Animation by Jayne Helliwell.
