Mayhem’s 12 Days of Christmas posts is onto day 3. In case you missed the first two posts that featured the Apocalypse Disco and Radiohead this years theme is quite dark and not very festive. With all the crap in the world at the moment much of it driven by the Mango Mussolini I thought I would celebrate Chrimbo this year with songs about the end of the world. Yeah, kind of depressing of course, but these are twelve fabulous tracks and whatever happens music will always accompany me wherever I go, even if that is into the heart of Armageddon!
Today’s choice cut comes from Black Box Recorder, an iconic British band who began their journey in the late 90s. The band consists of Sarah Nixey, Luke Haines (of The Auteurs), and John Moore (formerly of The Jesus and Mary Chain). The song is “It’s Only the End of the World” taken from their 1998 debut album ‘England Made Me’. There is a delightful 60s feel to the song and I would be happy to hear this as the world falls apart.
