Evan: I’d never consider this a protest song, but it was inspired in part by my frustrations with the legal system—well, that and a massive pillar of fire I witnessed driving Route 119 at the dawn of the “Shale Gas Revolution.” I hope some will identify the specter of Buffalo Creek haunting this song, and I hope my mother will appreciate the various Biblical allusions (see, I was listening in Sunday School).
