Sun Kil Moon Is “Glad” Michael Jackson Is Dead

New track 'He's Bad' hits the web...

Sun Kil Moon and Jesu have aired controversial new Michael Jackson referencing song 'He's Bad'.

The pair will release new album '30 Seconds to the Decline of Planet Earth' next year, with new cut 'He's Bad' placed on their joint website.

It's a somewhat controversial listen. Mark Kozelek lists the reasons he doesn't like Michael Jackson, and the chorus runs: "He’s bad, and he’s dead and I’m glad. He’s dead, and to me it ain’t that fuckin’ sad."

Other excerpts include:

I'm sorry for the bad things his father did to him
But it doesn't add up to building a Willy Wonka trap for kids
And changing the color of your god-given skin.

And this Radar Online referencing lyric:

They said, ‘Did you hear the latest on him?
They found child porno at his place.
And animal torture videos.’

Is the latest on him true?
Well, I don’t fucking know
But if I had a son, would I let him get into a car with Michael Jackson?
Fuck no.

Later, Sun Kil Moon calls Michael Jackson "one seriously fucked up dude".

'He's Bad' will appear on the forthcoming Jesu/Sun Kil Moon record '30 Seconds to the Decline of Planet Earth'.
