Godspeed You! Black Emperor

Glennspeed You! Black Emperor (Glenn Beck Mash-Up)

On the surface, it doesn't seem as if conservative Fox News host Glenn Beck and Godspeed You! Black Emperor have much in common, but this video mash-up proves them to be a perfect pair.

The group's tense, weeping strings score the pundit's political diatribe as he connects the dots between riots in Egypt and Tunisia, and predicts full-scale hysteria running across the better part of Africa and Europe. String swells punctuate every country he predicts will be set aflame in the future.

It's just as creepy as any of Godspeed's actual politically motivated sound samples, though we have a feeling the band's politics don't exactly agree with Beck's.

Thanks to The Stranger for the tip.
