| For God and Country Siva : Song List | ![]() |
![]() "In the beginning, before it went disco, that one was very Morricone and kinda bad." Jimmy Chamberlin "I started the song on an acoustic guitar, and I just loved something about hearing the words 'God and Country' coming out of my mouth because I'm just not that patriotic. It was like our 'Battle Hymn of the Republic.' So I have this cheap synthesizer that is our go-to instrument when we don't know what to do, and I started playing the chords and pushing different buttons and ultimately settled on a dance rhythm. What makes the song even more bizarre is that you have a sort of political message to a disco beat--thanks to Roy who mixed it like an old Donna Summer dance track. I told him the bass was just too loud and he gave me a face like I was taking away his toy. Of course, Roy was right."
