Cat People (Putting Out Fire)

“Cat People is an erotic thriller in the same way Caligula is a historical epic.”

Today we discuss a song (and the remake of a song) that’s the theme to a movie that’s a remake of another movie. We also discuss the movie (the remake, not the original). Also Australian music, hipster fire departments, and explosive guitar solos. All this at no additional cost when you listen to “Cat People (Putting Out Fire)!”

Ballad Of The Adventurers

“He’s like an ancient version of Patti Smith.”

Baal

Baal returns to sing the prelude to his own death. We also talk about the Saddest Song Ever Written™, but this episode is mostly about the Holy Holy show last week! It’s “Ballad Of The Adventurers!”
