Laibach and Take It

So, you know how on the cover of the first Great Crusades album Mike Rader looks kind of sinister and creepy as if he is the type who would be utterly tickled by watching a video of Laibach covering the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil"...?
...but you figure that was just some kind of act he put on and he really is a guy who spends his time fastidiously fussing over his herb garden and signing petitions for Peta?

Nope.

Hey Don,

I always wondered what those elementary school gigs were like. I wish I had that in my day. Speaking of videos, thanks to YouTube I’ve recently become reacquainted with my favorite Yugoslavian cover band:

Nobody does ‘em with that kind of panache anymore. No way.

Best,
Mike
