This sounds like "Hey Joe"..Well not quite but its totally walking that well trodden path. Its a swathed in reverb type affai with a kind of down beat feel. It reminds me also of BJM in its production and genereal vibe .Side B is quite different....An alt country sounding track that made me want to don a stetson and steal a horsey...The sleeve is rather fetching too; a hand drawn crayon portrait of the protagonists...on fire! There Is also a download code to get excited about... if that's what wets your whistle.

· The A-side recalls the story of St. Laurent who was burned at the stake for refusing to renounce Jesus Christ in front of the King.
· While his flesh was burning he said...."I am crisp on this side, it is time to turn me over", an act that earned him sainthood. Shooting stars (traditionally called the Fiery Tears of St. Laurent) can often be seen above King Khan's hometown of Montreal.
· King Khan is a Canadian musician. He is best known as the frontman of the rock ‘n’ roll bands King Khan and the Shrines and The King Khan & BBQ Show. Pat Meteor is the other guy here.
