'A flag of blood and lipstick will be unfurled'

In this truly ridiculous heat, have found myself listening on a perpetual loop to Scritti's White Bread Black Beer, a little beacon of sanity and reluctant sentimentalism, soothing an increasingly uninhabitable London summer- lush, brittle, both freeze-dried and warm, Green never sounding more androgynous and ageless. Oddly depressing though that this, along with the most recent records by Scott Walker and the Pet Shop Boys, marks a trend of the only new music that has actually interested me this year (save for Burial) being made by people at least twice my age. Whether or not this has any significance or not is a moot point- maybe the conservatism of youth is finally being reflected by interesting pop becoming the domain of the middle aged...

But aside from that- has there ever been a better description of the people's flag than the one quoted above (from the last song on WBBB)?
