Chorus.fm Premieres SGM’s “Salamander In Two Worlds” Video

Chorus.fm has the video premiere of “Salamander In Two Worlds” by Sleepytime Gorilla Museum, as well as a short interview with the band. Asked how the song fits within the overall arc of new album Of The Last Human Being, member Nils Frykdahl said, “Certainly the straddling of worlds, of loss and preservation, of survival in the face of ‘eating poison,’… all serve as a theme for the record, with the 25 year lifespan of this band positioned at a certain historical hinge, a fairly sudden change in the ways and texture of daily life in the western world, making our last salamander/Ishi a sympathetic character in this brave new world of the 21st century, “growing strong on the dark, wet food of literature and leaves.” Read more and see the clip here.
