TESTO
It’s sunny and hot but rain is falling down.
Ant colonies acting very busy.
They’re running around across the muddy ground.
Heading to the trees.
The queen is climbing to the top.
The workers are flowing like a river.
It’s like a machine that’s never gonna stop… but that is just a lie.
One worker begins to feel a little cold.
It starts to behave a little crazy.
It looks like it’s not anymore in control.
Like it doesn’t care.
The ant is back into the mud.
Some mushroom is breaking through its body.
Enslaving the ant and feeding off its blood.
The ant is running in circles. To spread the spores all around.
Turned into some kind of puppet. The master’s not backing down.
It’s just a matter of days now. It’s almost time for goodbyes.
Whether you like it or not now. The ant is ready to die.
The forest is like a playground.
The fungus is having fun.
He just got himself a new toy.
This party has just begun.
It’s not the first time it’s happened
It’s not gonna be the last.
The fungus is spreading faster. Just killing it.
What a party! What a Blast!

DESCRIZIONE
Esiste in natura un fenomeno in cui un fungo (principalmente Ophiocordyceps Unilateralis) infetta una formica, diventando il suo parassita, e una volta arrivato al suo cervello assume il controllo del sistema nervoso dell’insetto e quindi del suo comportamento.
La formica infetta, manipolata dal fungo come uno zombie, lascia la sua colonia, si arrampica su una pianta a circa 25 cm di altezza e addenta una foglia fino a lasciarsi morire, in un processo fatale chiamato “la morsa della morte”. Dopo la morte della formica, un carpoforo comincia a crescere dalla sua testa, rilasciando spore che poi infetteranno altre formiche, e la storia si ripete. Zombie Ant Fungus Strike, il primo singolo dal prossimo EP di Atom Lux, racconta l’affascinante storia di una formica infetta.
[ENG]
There’s a phenomenon in nature in which a fungus (mainly Ophiocordyceps Unilateralis) infects an ant, becoming its parasite. Once it reaches the ant’s brain, the fungus takes control of the insect’s nervous system, affecting its behavior.
Manipulated by the fungus like a zombie, the infected ant leaves its colony, climbs a plant to a height of about one ft, and bites down on a leaf until it dies, in a fatal and fascinating process known as the “death grip.” After the ant’s death, a carpophore grows from its head, releasing spores that will infect other ants, and the cycle repeats. Zombie Ant Fungus Strike, the lead single of the upcoming EP, tells about a day in the life (the last one) of an infected ant.
