That was my immediate response too, Jorge. This is really good and bodes very well for the album.
No my response is that it kind of sucks

It sounds like an actual coherent song, not a forced foray into some new genre. I also like how it just meanders at the end rather than building to a false crescendo.

I know the girls wanna dance away their circumstance
I know the boys wanna grow their dicks and fix and fire things
I know the girls wanna dance
Clairvoyants in a trance
I know the boys wanna grow their dicks and fix and fire things

I didn't hate it and I might have liked it. I will probably listen to the album now. I'm totally surprised by the song.

I agree; that atmospheric last half is the part that I'm enjoying. They don't lean into the typical tropes that they sometimes too easily fall upon.

Despite my earlier post, I really like this and I have no idea where it came from. I just hope that the rest of the album is as left field as this

The drums are actually live

It’s an overt Talking Heads rip-off, but it’s extremely well done. 4/5
