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.

Here’s “That’s When I Reach for My Revolver” by Mission of Burma:

I’m on my way to All Tomorrow’s Parties this weekend, and I’m really looking forward to seeing Mission of Burma.  They’re masters of being loud, melodic and intelligent.  This song is from their debut album, Signals, Calls and Marches, released in 1981.
