"Tin Omen" is a single by the band Skinny Puppy, taken from their 1989 album Rabies.[2] The song name is a reference to the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre.[3] The song also refers to the My Lai massacre of 1968 and the Kent State shootings of 1970.
Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen (credited as both Alien Jourgensen and Hypo Luxa) performed guitar and backing vocals for the song. The band's longtime producer Dave "Rave" Ogilvie also contributed additional backing vocals.
