The singer is a dude?  Who knew.

Really liked this band until I saw Charles Manson singing. Now it's just creepy.

I respect your comment, rdo.  I never thought before that this singer's voice was breathy or could be considered annoying. I like this song just the way it is.  For me, a solid 8

You know it is a good day when RP is playing your favorite iTunes playlist.  Two 10s in a row!!

You are right - Flock of Bleeps would fit well. . . I'd load some up but I think there is zero chance of it being added here. . .

I always think of "Wraith Pinned To The Mist And Other Games" by Of Montreal when I hear this song.

Agreed. Great album, nice flow. CG's drumming really keeps it together and propels it, along with BA's driving distorted guitar!

If only they had a different singer. (Steve Perry and Jon Anderson need not apply.)

Another example of how a singer can completely ruin a song for me. His voice sounds suitable enough for one of those teenage bands. The song isn't bad, but can't stand it :-)

I don't even necessarily dislike this song or band. But I don't feel they need to be played multiple times each day as they are. {#Snooty}

seems to remind me of several bands, some of which I can't remember the names of right now (old age?)...but despite that, or perhaps because of it I quite like this on first listen.
