Yanomamo Indians

Steve Albini

Every time we do the firecracker thing, I end up with running black snot down my face. Am I doing that? I'd really be embarrassed if I am

Anybody know anything about a tribe of Indians from South America called the Yanamano? Oh, they have these really bitchin club fights with each other where one of em will stand there and dare the other one to hit him on the head with a stick as hard as he can. And if he falls over, then he loses, see. But then if he gets up and whacks the other fella, well then he gets to fuck his wife. It's pretty great

Anyway. But they do this after having this wild psychedelic drug blasted up their nostrils by each other, and then running around with this green snot running all over their faces, whacking each other on the head with sticks. It's really a cool society

Anyway, this song is called Pigeon Kill
