With today\'s Song of the Day, New York-based Colombian duo\\xa0Salt Cathedral share a sneak peek at their forthcoming full-length\\xa0Before It\\u2019s Gone, to be self-released on March 22nd. In a press statement, the band share:

\\n

\\u201c\\u201dTerminal Woes\\u201d are the woes that will bring us (humanity) to our demise \\u2013 in this song, climate change. How do I bring a child into a world that is getting, by all predictions, physically worse? How is capitalism/corporate interest & greed steering the wheel (or not steering the wheel?). We live in bubbles where we forget nature and animals exist too. Powerful people making decisions have their wallet, not the planet in mind. The only solution is reaching a point where the planet and the wallet align, where the most profitable business plan is to be sustainable. Sonically, it\\u2019s a march of sorts, a chorus that bursts into stacks of voices to show collectivism and a lot of inspiration from Ravi Shankar\\u2019s music.\\u201d
