God Is An Astronaut: The whole vibe was satirical!
God Is An Astronaut – Route 666
A space traveler is in China taikonaut and cosmonaut in Russia and finally we have the western space traveler Astronaut. God Is An Astronaut is a band and they have a new video Route 666. God Is An Astronaut are a 4 piece band who hail from Glen Of The Downs, Ireland.
The band states:
«Route 666 is the oldest God Is An Astronaut song. It was written in 1999 before God Is An Astronaut was formed», Torsten Kinsella reveals.
«Initially Niels and I came up with the name / subject matter after watching US Televangelist Don Stewart pitching his green prosperity prayer handkerchief on the TV which we found obviously ludicrous, equally entertaining and humorous.
Back in the early years when we would play Route 666 live we would use some old film clips from the 1968 Horror film The Devil Rides out. Needless to say the whole vibe was satirical».
New Live studio anniversary album, The Beginning Of The End and the track From Dust to the Beyond (Live). The track Coda,
Route 666 is taken from their new live studio album, The Beginning Of The End, which was released through Napalm Records on July 15.
