BTP Song of the Day: The Thermals, "Pillar of Salt"
The Thermals - Pillar of Salt (3.4 MB MP3)
The Thermals have always been good for a few simple things: loud, fast, and fun. On their new record, they've added "serious and sober commentary on the interplay between politics and religion."
I'm not even kidding. Give a listen and see what I mean.
We were born to sin.
We were born to sin.
We don't think we're special, sir.
We know everybody is.
For my money, that's the most subversive lyric you'll hear all year.
