The Tiger Lillies — “Banging in the Nails” (youtube music link, sorry)
While I can’t know the spirit in which the song was written, I suspect it was intended to shock and offend. But I’m firmly “death of the author”, so IDGAF. I listen to it as part of my Lenten devotions, a reminder that the sacrifice of Christ is necessary because we humans in general and me specifically are fucking depraved.
They are just geuinely transgressive. “Kick A Baby Down the Stairs” “Vagina In the Sky” “If You Want to Win Do Heroin”
Fantastic gig when I saw them live, insanely playing Banging in the Nails on a children’s drum kit with hammers.
Omg that’s fucking hysterical
