Who Will Save Your Soul?


If I had to put money on it, I'd say Soulsavers are obsessed with just that. There's an old school revival coming to town, 1800s style, with the tent and the pervasive dust and all the rest of it. The town is just a filling station and a baptist church, 300 miles from anything of consequence. The people are hard, their faces set in plaster, something almost sinister in the air. Almost. Here come the Soulsavers down the road, a rising cloud of dust behind them, single file, singing and playing these old-school-spiritual-meets-Johnny-Cash songs. The townspeople come out, the children run alongside the players, they're all smiling. There's gonna be a revival tonight. Lord, there's gonna be a revival.
