@ Liberi Fatali. Hunting for Witches has at least one completely obvious reference to 9/11, mainly in the second verse
when he says: "As planes crash into towers". I think the theme of the song relates more to the scapegoating that the
government does in general, as opposed to a single instance. It's a general critique of the western world as a whole.

"All reasonable thought is being drowned out by the nonstop baying, the baying for blood."

"Silver slugs lined up like bullets

Rolled up twenties, they disappear"

I don't think it's quite as cohesive as this, but yeah there are some amazing tracks. I really think they could have put England or Rhododendrons on this instead of On or Where is Home

On is easily my least favourite on this. That may be cos of placing more than anything, being a slow track in between two superior slow tracks, especially kreuzberg.
