A classic in the spirit of Anger As Art, but pushing into ethereal eeriness with that evil sounding choir. A whole bunch of inspiration – the choir idea came from the movie ‘beneath the planet of the apes’ when that mutant choir was singing praises to the nuclear weapon? Lyrics: it is a story about a true life Dr. Evil character disguised as a philanthropist who makes people believe he is doing good, while actually putting the machine in place that will destroy the world. But, it’s not a fantasy… this is a true to life character who is in the news DAILY. A recent media expose was done by someone who is maligned and ridiculed by this man’s organization. In the story, the ‘talking head’ actually said ‘the only way to stop this from happening is to cut off the head of the snake.’ Bang – the lyrics wrote themselves. I love the ending of this song – the whammy bar into the last punches… this song just keeps coming – relentless. (another song that almost didn’t make the record)*
