Ok man, I'm really digging this Dan Le Sac vs. Scroobius Pip video/tune, "Thou Shalt Always Kill."
In fact I'm probably digging it more than most. However, has anyone noticed the glaring conflict in the lyrics? The most famous stanza in the song is when he rants, "Thou shall not put musicians on ridiculous pedestals: The Beatles -- were just a band, Led Zeppelin -- just a band, Beach Boys -- just a band," etc.
But in the beginning of the song he says, "Thou shalt not take the names of Johnny Cash, Joe Strummer, Johnny Hartman, Desmond Decker, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix or Syd Barret in vain."
Come on people, let's tighten up that songwriting shall we?
Whatever, this thing still rocks your assgrapes.

Or that by naming off the Beatles, Beach Boys, The Pixies. etc... he is idolizing them. The fact that he recognizes them as idols only furthers their idol status.
