“How To Kill a Man From Outer Space” by Matt Wilson.

It’s rare for a song to live up to a title as awesome as this, but “HTKMFOS” does just that!

How does one kill a man from outer space, though? With an advanced rifle built by scientists from the 47th century using alien technology and materials?

Or with an interstellar message sent across an incomprehensible distance to your lover on Earth — words that finally meet his eyes decades later, revealing that you regretted choosing a spacefaring life over his arms, and promising to meet him in the afterlife?

Matt Wilson released a free album in mid-December, which doesn’t include the above song but offers 12 other stirring tracks. Titled Chi*p Death, the release is advertised as “the official soundtrack for jumping out of an exploding fortress.”
