Matthew Good

Here's a Canadian musician who I was into for a while in the 2000s. Sadly, much of his music reminds me of the Bush years: "Alert Status Red" "Advertising on Police Cars" "Black Helicopter." I'm starting to feel like like we're returning to this same state of broken government under a tyrant, and so maybe his music makes me feel a little better. He's a complicated guy with emotional outbursts on social media, but there's no doubt Matthew Good is an artist. 

"Black Helicopter" might be my favorite track. Real 'effing poetry. 

"Live the highway in your home

You're going to get what you deserve
And not a penny less
Concrete the natural absurd
Only killers call killing progress

Fall on me black helicopter
You're all I see..."
