Malachi Richter's Liquor's Quicker is the eighth song on Less Than Jake's seventh full length album, GNV FLA. The song is based on a real person, Malachi Ritscher (he's credited as Malachi Richter on the Arsenal EP he played bass for in 1989). Ritscher is the latest person to self-immolate in the US when he did so alongside the Kennedy Expressway in Chicago during rush hour on November 3, 2006, protesting the Iraqi War. The beginning speech in the song is an actual excerpt from Ritscher's suicide note, titled "Thou Shall Not Kill". The morse code in the background reads: "We may lose hope, but there's always hope".
