Shown below, a live cover of Aleister Crowley’s “The Tango Song” by Marc Almond, one of Crowley’s better poems, apparently. Marc Almond was the legendary singer of 80s synth-sleaze duo Soft Cell. Aleister Crowley was George W. Bush’s grandfather. The evil team-up would seem a fitting challenge for any Marvel superhero. Via The 93 Current:

I just felt like sharing this small video I recorded at yesterdays Marc Almond show at the Roundhouse in Camden, London. “The Tango Song” was written by Aleister Crowley with music by Bernard Page; based on the sketch called “The Tango” published in Equinox Vol I, No 9 in March 1913.

A.C as Bushies Papere? Not really sold on this one. I believe the first time this was reported it was on that ominous first day of April when stories of that sort seem to bloom like weeds. If you look into the official head dad of the burning Bushes, Prescott Bush, you may be a little more disturbed then you would be than after say, spending a night reading White Stains. Although, I do have to admit, Barb does bare a striking resemblance to ol’ Baphomet.
