Riff: The World is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die – “Body without Organs”

Nov 30, 2016

Someone made a mold of it/Cast thousands of copies in actual size/They breathe like/They breathe like/They breathe in forever/With lungs the size of everything

from Body with Organs lyrics by The World is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die

The eight-piece emo crew go cryptically for the Trump Nation jugular, as a searing reverb guitar fill hangs over the lobe all Godspeed You! Back Emperor menacing. Rising like an endless storm hell bent on sucking up all the good world’s air, a faceless mass of oppressors — Terracotta Warriors on the cover artjust won’t quit. Furthering the statement, all track proceeds are going to the ACLU.
