Cesspools in Eden

Cesspools in Eden

Dead Kennedys

This song tells the story of a seemingly idyllic suburb constructed on top of a secret underground waste dump. The residents of the neighborhood are poisoned by chemical leaks, but the powerful business interests that buried the toxins are untouchable and immune to prosecution.

This song is an example of psychedelic influences on the Dead Kennedys' sound, and is similar in style to tracks on their previous album, Frankenchrist.
