St. Mechanical Flattery

New York, 1980

From Lydia Lunch's solo debut Queen of Siam.

'Mechanical Flattery' features bass guitar, flattened drums, mad and sparse piano, and eventually  saxophone, but mostly it is Ms. Lunch's voice that makes this three-minute song one of the all-time greats.

My torso melts
it flows out my shins...
I run from the night
