Interesting song. Eddie sounds angry.
Going to take a few listens to digest.

Listening to this now. Didn't like the beginning, but it's kicking in nicely. Interesting bridge. Kinda weird and groovy. Sounds nicely layered, but I'm not sure I'm liking this one. I do like the heavy, MCA-ish, style bass though.

Very hard to pin this down after one listen. It's got energy and is a fresh sound for PJ.

Is it just me, or does Jeff's bass tone remind anyone of the tone MCA used a lot for the Beasties?

It's actually something new, while still sounding like PJ. The "Can I beggar release" part is pretty good. I like how they held way back on the guitars on purpose. Liked it on first listen. Good sign.

I don't know if liked that. And now I have to wait 5 minutes for sirens to be over for something new.

Wow, on second listen, this song is pretty awesome. There's a lot going on here.
Love the "can I get a reprieve" line. Ed works it in there so well.

There's a quality to the "can I get a reprieve..." section that reminds me of Bad Religion's Stranger than Fiction album.

This has a chance to be the best thing on the record.

I have a feeling this is going to end up my favorite song from the album.

Yeah, its really off-putting. Someone's gotta make a better sequencing for this album.

Woah this is odd. After first listen, eddie and his wacky pronunciation putting me off at the beginning a little 'gle-ahd' etc, kinda hate the bridge currently, love the bit after the bridge where eddie sounds really crazy/angry and like it from there on out. Love the eeee hooo's too lol. And the guitar is really awesome/groovy/dark idk.
Bits of it remind me of one of those songs ed played with neil finn that one time, History never repeats? or i see red, one of them cant remember which lol.
So far im feeling

Only one listen yet though.
Also sirens coming out of this is just bizzare. WTF guys.
