The Offering präsentieren uns nach „WASP“ und „The Disappointments“ die dritte Single ihres kommenden Albums. Diesmal ist „Flower Children“ an der Reihe, ein (selbst-)ironischer Song voller Wortspielerein.
Flower Children‘ is a declaration of distrust and loathing for an entire generation of sociopathic narcissists. Art, literature, the economy, politics, and American cultural war issues – all resolved with the emergence to power of a new generation. Inspired by Bruce Cannon Gibney’s ‚A Generation of Sociopaths: How the Baby Boomers Betrayed America‘, ‚Flower Children‘ echoes his thesis – condemning the mentally defunct characteristics of an aging generation, and the irrationality of its longevity in power. Undeniably, the systemic operation of the country would be better off without their rusting grip. I hope this song offends their delicate sensibilities. And if it does…Good riddance!<span class="su-quote-cite">The Offering</span>
