It all depends on how it's delivered.

Could be about comparing the records of the Bush and Obama administrations. . . . .

Man, when that apocalyptic thing doesn't pan out, this place might not recover from the collective disapointment.

Though the first thing it reminded me of was insignificance , that was 'let the song protest' though.
Was that a lyric? If so, this one could refer back to it. I hope.
Yah it's a lyric. 'Play C3, let the song protest'
As much as i love insignificance, i kinda hope its not refering back to it. What with swallowed whole that'd be a lot of potential self-referencing.

Though, that song has this irony or casualness to it that I'm not sure Eddie has ever had, barring Evolution.

I guess I just think that this title might be the song that's just chucked on there and has nothing to do with the theme. We've got hints that this artist has a talent for drawing out the themes of the songs; this artwork is the blandest so far, suggesting that this song might mean nothing at all. I mean, how would you illustrate Supersonic?

Yup. There's no way Ed is able to produce anything ironic or witty out of a track title like that.

I don't get it. It's just a scratchy vinyl. In the dark.
Spin the black circle? Now the record has played out?
What are we being told.

It'd sure be a strange sound to have on a record.
Imagine all our psycho audiophiles complaining about the cd mastering of it and then onto vinyl!!
IT'S A RECORDING OF A RECORDING!! THEY'RE FUCKING WITH US AGAAAAIN!!

The two circles could correspond to the revolver / bullet, due to their colours. But that's a stretch, I'm just trying to make this one look interesting.
