Neil Young has introduced a brand new album—his first along with his lately assembled touring band, the Chrome Hearts. He leads Talkin to the Trees with a reliably on-the-nose protest music, “Lets Roll Once more,” rallying the American automobile trade to “defend our kids” by manufacturing electrical automobiles at a charge to match China, which is “means forward—they’re constructing clear automobiles.” (“That’s laborious to swallow!” he provides.) Try the video under, together with the album tracklist.
In verses to the tune of Woody Guthrie’s “This Land Is Your Land,” Younger zeroes in on Elon Musk: “In the event you’re a fascist, then get a Tesla/If it’s electrical/It doesn’t matter/In the event you’re a Democrat, then style your freedom/Get no matter you need, and style your freedom.” The video accompanies the verse with a “Heil Tesla” picture depicting Musk’s Nazi-style salute.
Talkin to the Timber is out June 13. It contains Neil Younger and the Chrome Hearts’ debut single, “Big Change.”
