Great New Track: "Mass Destruction" by Faithless

Blog

I heard a very good track today on MTV by a band called Faithless who I first ran across in NL (it’s actually a trio, one third of which, Rollo Armstrong, is the brother of quasi-depressive chanteuse Dido, who i think is the girl playing drums in the video…).

Whether long range weapon or suicide bomber
Wicked mind is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether you’re soar away sun or BBC 1
Disinformation is a weapon of mass destruc’
You could a Caucasian or a poor Asian
Racism is a weapon of mass destruction
Whether inflation or globalization
Fear is a weapon of mass destruction [echoes of Russell Simmons]

Whether Halliburton or Enron or anyone
Greed is a weapon of mass destruction

The rest of the lyrics are great, clever, including references to the wheel of karma, Daddy going to Vietnam and not coming back, etc.
