Though not so much in 2020, the fourth of July is usually filled with revelry and celebration in the United States. The ‘Two Minutes To Late Night‘ camp had something different in mind, recruiting members of Cave In, Chelsea Wolfe and Fucked And Bound to cover Soundgarden‘s haunting “Superunknown” dirge”Fourth Of July“. The ‘Two Minutes To Late Night‘ crew commented:
“We covered the best Soundgarden song about Chris Cornell‘s favorite Oliver Stone movie. But seriously, The Fourth of July is a flawed holiday. To quote public affairs professor Peniel Joseph, America is “a country that continues to dishonor the sacrifices made by African American soldiers and ordinary citizens who bled for democracy in international conflicts and on domestic home fronts that denied them citizenship and dignity.” This is not a day for celebration as long as the police keep murdering black people without facing justice. Luckily, this song is about an acid trip.
