18. Death in June | "Little Black Angel"

"Little Black Angel" by Death in June from the album But, What Ends When the Symbols Shatter? (1992)

Ever listen to a pretty song, and discover it was originally recorded by a suicide cult with a casualty list of more than 900 people? Yeah? It freaked you out, didn’t it? Douglas Pearce’s re-imagining of “Black Baby” by the People’s Temple Choir is, indeed, very pretty . . . also, kind of fucked up.
