Wow, remember when Mankind was a meta commentary on commercial rock music? Now it's just an early attempt at a formula that is ruining this band.
when was it ever that?

That's what the song is about. Stone talked about it back when it came out.
i knew i was right to be suspicious of that song!

OK fair

so then, why does this song in particular contradict its message? it's just over 2 minutes long and won't get major radio play

I must be hearing a different song…don’t really hear supersonic or got some in this. Maybe tempo wise but that’s about it.

And even though I really like it, it does seem like a weird choice for a single. At most it’s a fun 2 minute song and I doubt that’ll move the needle much.

This is Good and Evil + Supersonic + Olé all mixed in a bad mix.


Dont see it getting improved live. Well lets just wait.

First impression after two listens is that I don't mind it. It doesn't offend me. It's alright.

The production isn't quite as bad as I was preparing myself for all day. It's not ideal, to say the least, but whatever. I don't care anymore.

just listened on my headphones (buds)

plenty of guitar separation in my left and right ear - mainly Stone in left, mainly Mike in right

thing kicks ass
