==Overview== | |||
"Everybody Needs Salvation" is a reworking of a previous demo, "[[Let's Go to the 33rd Dimension]]". Demos of both songs were included in the digital compilation ''[[Alone XI: The EWBAITE Years]]'', released in [[2020]]. | |||
The song was only released on 7" one-sided red vinyl, with a digital MP3 download of the track for members of the fan club. The 7" features no B-side, meaning this side of the single is smooth. The song was recorded in February [[2015]], several months after the sessions for their most recent album ''[[Everything Will Be Alright in the End]]'', but a version of the song was written prior to and considered for the album at one point. A portion of the bridge lyrics appear in the album liner notes after the lyrics for "[[The British Are Coming]]". | |||
