==Overview==
"Everybody Needs Salvation" 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 then-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]]".

The cover is a painting by Antonello da Messina called ''Ecce Homo'', painted in 1475. The symbol on the shoulder of Christ is the Om in Devanagari[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Om]. The cover the original intended cover for ''[[Ecce Homo]]'', the album concept that was eventually reworked into ''Everything Will Be Alright in the End''.
