we were there...i keep thinking i see myself up front w/the red/black hair but who knows? editing's fast but terrific and captures the feeling.about the salute we were amazed when PITB was released in the States w/the same cover as here (that L-hand salute; we're Americans).

These guys played a festival last Sunday and were just unbelievable. I really miss watching these, could have danced to them all night

Yes it is all Jim Jones on the tape, quoting Mao and coaching the young female voice that we hear that killing is the only way to bring on change. Jim Jones was a fervent communist as well as a paranoid cult leader who led over 900 Americans to commit revolutionary suicide in 1978 in Guyana. This song is certainly controversial because it pairs Jones's revolutionary musings with a killer beat that builds and builds until it explodes. I love it.

Do not get distracted by the title. Remember a title is but a label, a meme designed to make something stick. There is at least as much of Jim Jones in this as there is Mao. There's also reference to Elvis (another gun nut), Salvador Allende (who died by the gun rather than lived by it) and Daniel Ortega among many others. To me it's rather about mind control and the appeal of controversy than that it conveys any real 'red' ideas. |
