"From One Source All Things Depend"
This track released by this reclusive Scottish
duo is comprised of recordings of North American children talking about
god. In keeping with one of the themes of apocalypse, especially when
derived from a religious origin, I wanted to touch upon the Waco massacre.
The record this track is taken from is full of references to the Branch
Davidians, an apocalyptic, separatist Christian sect with a compound
in Waco, Texas. In 1993 tensions between the Davidians and the federal
government spun out of control. All of the children depicted here (19
of which were under the age of 10) were killed when the apocalypse they
were taught to wait for, arrived (in the form of the US government).
