"The government is corrupt
And we're on so many drugs
With the radio on and the curtains drawn. 
We're trapped in the belly of this horrible machine
And the machine is bleeding to death...

Thou - Malfeasance/Retribution (2008)

last.fm

Thou is a five piece doom band from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. In my opinion one of the best bands around today. I highly recommend visiting their website. There you can order their records and download all of them for free. Everything these guys have put out is solid. The artwork alone makes it worth the purchase. Malfeasance/Retribution was released as a limited 10 inch vinyl and is long out of print. According to the band it may be repressed soon in some way. This is one of my favorites from them. Two tracks of crushing doom. Download it below.

Cormac McCarthy - Blood Meridian (1985)

"Blood Meridian or the Evening Redness in the West is a 1985 Western novel by American author Cormac McCarthy. McCarthy's fifth book, it was published by Random House.
The narrative follows a teenage runaway referred to only as "the kid", with the bulk of the text devoted to his experiences with the Glanton gang, a historical group of scalp hunters who massacred Indians and others in the United States–Mexico borderlands in 1849 and 1850. The role of antagonist is gradually filled by Judge Holden, a large, intelligent man depicted as entirely devoid of body hair and emblematic of violence and conflict.
Although the novel initially generated only lukewarm critical and commercial reception, it has since become highly acclaimed and is widely recognized as McCarthy's masterpiece." -From Wikipedia


One of my favorite quotes from the book:
"...The judge smiled.
Books lie, he said.
God dont lie.
No, said the judge. He does not. And these are his words.
He held up a chunk of rock.
He speaks in stones and trees, the bones of things.
The squatters in their rags nodded among themselves and were soon reckoning him correct, this man of learning, in all his speculations, and this the judge encouraged until they were right proselytes of the new order whereupon he laughed at them for fools."
