The Homeless Gospel Choir, the musical project of Derek Zanetti, has released a video for Blind Faith, taken from his forthcoming album This Land Is Your Landfill.
“There’s a sparkle in the eye of those in positions of power when the people are scared, paranoid, and in need of guidance,” Zanetti comments on the single. “The danger with religion is that it holds hostage common sense and good basic reason for something that is intangible, unexplainable, and without proof. There’s is a comfort in blindly following something. I think people feel secure with clinging to an answer even if they know that the answer they have is wrong. That’s what they are banking on, and that’s the scariest part.
“This song is about continually witnessing others getting beat by blindly following something they know is broken, and not being able to get through to them.”
This Land Is Your Landfill is due for release on 24th April via Hassle Records (UK/EU) and A-F Records (North America), available to pre-order HERE.
