Maybe it could have made a better b-side. Still entertaining though.

To me, the song sounds like the sort of pop shit you get in the charts, except with heavy sounding guitars.

And it's nice to actually understand the lyrics for once without having to read them up.

Do we actually like this song or do we all like it in a 'so bad it's good' way? It's just bad... really bad. I can't even laugh at it.

Worst thing they've ever done?
The bit before the chorus reminds me of Flight of the Conchords

I've replaced it with motorcade. Sounds so much better. SPLAM is now in a playlist I call "Music To Baffle" which includes MEDD, Ghost Of Christmas, etc.

It's not as bad as AutumnSong! Almost as bad, but nothing could be as bad as that. I'd say it's in their top 5 worst songs.

Not heard it yet but... is it this album's EWYS? Only this time they've put it on an album instead of a b-side?

It's definetly the runt of the litter. I think it has a place, though. Like when the italian futurists liked fast cars (and fascism) and hung around with boxers. It introduces some muscle and segues well into the magnificent Dreaming A City.
The text is also surprisingly ok. "It reads like a nover within a sigh" is cool.
