Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by John Richards, host of The Morning Show on KEXP, is "Wildfires" by SAULT, from the 2020 album Untitled (Black Is) on Forever Living Originals.
The bloodshed on your hands
Another man
Take off your badge
We all know it was murder
As we reported last year, not much is known about the mysterious London-based band SAULT, but their feelings on police brutality and systemic racism couldn't be clearer on their third LP titled Untitled (Black Is). On today's powerful Song of the Day, vocalist Cleo Sol somberly sings, "We are dying / it's the reason we are crying."
