Nice enough - but the noisy ending just sounds put on to me.

In theory, I like this cut, but in practice, I found it kind of annoying as background office music.

I love the first three albums and the Shopping Trolley EP. After that I've lost a bit of interest in their albums. I still see them live because they are great live.. |

This song made me pause at work to crank it up. Interesting spatial placement of sounds. I like it!

That's a good question. It's not always the same lead vocalist, though two of them sound a lot alike (there are 3) . Not only that, they blend many musical styles. |

Never mind albums.. see them live! Their shows are equally grooving and guaranteed to make you bounce.

My Mom was raving about Gomez, and gave me a CD the other day to listen to. So far they remind me of a cross between T-rex and Radiohead
is that good?

Whoa -- nifty sound. Heavy and driving.
I'm pretty sure the rest of the album is not instrumental, though, right?

The first Gomez song I've heard that doesn't annoy me; I actually like this one.
