It's best song by some margin?

Sure.

one listen through, I'd take either this or MYM as my top song off the album.

This track is awful, by the way. A hotchpotch of unfinished brainfart ideas juxtaposed together. It doesn't even flow or culminate into anything coherent.
Nope.

This is indeed the best track on the album for me - with Swallowed Whole and Pendulum not far behind.

Amazing what an extra 3 seconds of silence on the actual album (as opposed to the stream) does to ease the transition into Sirens.

This song should be talked about in the same breath as DTE, Last Exit, Animal, etc.

This one has long term strength.

Had this been on Yield, it would be revered in the same light as a song like Brain of J.

Agreed. I also wish it was written by the 98 version of this band.

I double-clicked this drum intro four times before the song kicked in. Sounded KICKASS.

Na, they've got enough great songs. This version needs songs like this more.
