This song's fucking amazing. Just like TMV. I've only just recently gotten into them (my cousin introduced me to them about two months ago, then burned me all their stuff about three weeks ago), but I have to say, in the short time I've known about them, they've become one of my favorite bands of all time. Their lyrics are genious, if only because they're so fucking unorthodox...This song kind of epitomizes why I love them so much, in that kind of way that you can't find a word in the entire English language to describe it. Just when they open up with the syncopated guitar rhythm and, "No, nobody is heard."

FANTASTIC.
