Tim Booth: "A father of twins at my son's school died and the kids went to the principal and wanted to do a native American fire ceremony over four days. The twins would sleep by the fire and we'd sit there in silence for three hours or sing. It was the most profound response to death I'd seen. At the end the fire dies out, the kids and the wife and the parents were there and it's devastating, an astonishing community response to support the kids in their grief. People would hang the names of people they'd lost and were missing on the tree - I put Gabrielle Roth and my mum on that. Those kids will be profoundly changed by that experience. I know I use fire a lot and was prepared to be slagged off for it, but that's what that lyric is about."
i can never fault what tim and the others do to make this work for so long they are world class i have been into metal/rock for years but when my wee brother jamie introduced me to them about 30 years ago i was sold best musicians ever
