about this song
The second track off of metalcore band Botch’s seminal second studio album We Are The Romans, released in 1999. The lyrics, written from the point of view of a coal miner, criticize upper-class intellectuals for failing to understand the problems faced by the working class. The title could be a reference to Dutch painter Piet Mondrian, one of the pioneers of 20th-century abstract art. His style involved reducing objects to simple geometric shapes, with only subtle variations that were intentionally hard for viewers to make out.
