Willy Mason’s Already Dead, his first album in nine years, confronts honesty, deception, identity, and freedom amid today’s chaos. Exploring themes like colonialism, love, and purpose, Mason describes it as a spiritual liberation from ego and cultural myths. The opener Youth On A Spit captures the struggle for freedom and identity in a consumer-driven world, embodying disillusionment as liberation. Already Dead is a bold, caring call for truth, justice, and love in a fractured society, born from Mason’s deep concern and hope to make a difference.
