ALT: an excerpt from the lyrics of the song The Defence by black midi that reads:
A brothel is a business no different than a bank
As safe and as formal and sanitary
My girls all destined for Hell
Or so says our priest
But find me a Christian who spends as much time on their knees
I don’t know, I think a brothel is a much more ethical business.
I always liked this from the Queensryche song Spreading the Disease:
Religion and sex are powerplays Manipulate the people for the money they pay Selling skin, selling God The numbers look the same on their credit cards
YES! I have always LOVED that line!
Good god that whole fucking album is just SO damn good and is STILL (frustratingly) relevant and on point! It had a big impact on me unlearning a lot of bullshit that I was raised with and opening my eyes. I love it so much and I am super stoked to see it mentioned here!! :)
Easily the best band currently active
have to agree with that. Went back and listened Schlagenheim as well. Maybe just as good?
That fucking slaps, holy shit.
ohh black midi goes so hard
