Who cares? It's a great song compared to the recycled crap played on FM radio stations these days.

my first buy along with ss pickups from Amazon through rp.listened to it around 6 times now and it starts to get better and better, indeed no music you get a grip on at the first listen.

Hell Yeah.

I thought it a bit harsh on first listen, but by third time through I was starting to get on the same wavelength, so to speak. Edgy and different.

Woohoo!  It is today — 3:35pm on a Friday, just perfect............  Cool to hear this one on RP — it caught my attention on KEXP the other day too!  Thinking I should add this to my collection.

Wow, liking this more and more every time, which is fine, since I absofrickinlutely loved it upon first trippin' listen — it's got it all: shades of Depeche Mode and Interpol, some early King Crimson-type bombast, vocals that seem familiar but undeniably new and fresh on the scene that they seem to have yet to map out, and hey, these guys could go anywhere from here, and it's perfect weather; happy for them! and Thanks, RP!

I believe it is not her.  Ms. Page passed away about three years ago, and she stopped modeling long before that.

I would have said the opposite, I find it really salacious and I would bet she is very comfortable wearing that too.

Well, there were not any until your comment.  Someone had to mention it, though.  Quite a good song, at any rate.
