LAND OF LOVE * SONS OF LIGHT * UPSETTER * JA

The Essenes took their devotion to God seriously. Living in the barren Judea Wilderness, they were ascetic, probably celibate, and dedicated to waiting for the imminent “day of the Lord.” They believed themselves to be the sons of light preparing for a great battle with the sons of darkness (John 12:35—36). The sons of light would be victorious, and the sons of darkness, ensnared by the power of evil, would be destroyed.

 It's a gorgeous track, came out about the same time, and on the same imprint (only a few on this one) as Forward With Jah Orthodox, Green Bay Inquest and Row Fisherman Row; can life offer any more?
