DOWNLOAD: Motopony – I Am My Body

A cursory listen to “I Am My Body” by Seattle’s Motopony might lead one to believe this is just a rollicking country blues number with vocals that sound like they’re being sung through a megaphone and a barrelhouse piano playing joyfully beneath a fuzzy electric guitar. Listen closely to the lyrics, however, and the song reveals itself to be twisted carnivorous revenge fantasy, and not to mention an even stranger karmic death wish: “When I get my body back to the earth don’t put me in no box,” Daniel Blue shouts with an affected southern accent, “Let my bones disperse/Feed me to the cows/Feed me to the chickens and the sows/feed me to the ones that I eat now.” Motopony give new meaning to the phrase what goes around comes around. Their self-titled debut comes out May 24 from tinyOGRE.
