The song that Riley's singing, by the way, (albeit poorly) is Armageddon by From Ashes to New. A recent favorite of mine.

Does this mean Ashes to New canonically exists/existed in Kuserra?

Trick

No, but you got me to think really hard about why the answer is a no. Riley's listening to an Ancestor song that I'm representing with a reference to something we can know or recognize. Just like they're also not really speaking English or Japanese in Kuserra, cuz I'd have to invent my own languages for them and then teach people to read it in order to tell their story. Canonically humans went extinct and Sol has swallowed the Earth. And... there's probably a gap of some billions of years after the death of the last human before the first of the Ancestors crawled out of the primordial sludge. The entirety of the Ancestor galactic civilization can probably be mapped on the scale of less than 1 million years, and if you cut out all the primitive ages it's probably less than even a couple hundred thousand. Again, just using Earth years as our reference point because that's what we know. The Ancestors undoubtedly had their own timescale based on what THEY knew, and modern day Kuserran years are technically longer by... roughly 20% iirc. BUT I DIGRESS. Point being, for ANYTHING to have survived from old Earth to current day Kuserra, it's had to have endured so much entropy that it's basically impossible for me to even say that there's a chance. I suppose there's the tiniest chance that remains from one of the Voyager probes might still be working on their ~fortieth trip around the galaxy.
