Each Friday I pick a song–new, old, borrowed, blue–that’s been on my mind and in my ears, and write a short post about it.

This is “Superhero” by Faith No More:

Faith No More played two nights in London last week. “Superhero”, from the band’s new album, Sol Invictus, was one of the real highlights of the set. It’s a one-song introduction to everything that makes Faith No More awesome, so if you don’t think it’s awesome, you probably won’t think Faith No More is awesome, but you’ll be wrong, because Faith No More is superfuckingawesome.
