This song fucking owns Stinkfist. Not to say the comparison isn't valid.
From just analyzing the song itself and not really the deeper meaning, it really sounds like an all-star combination of all his major recurring themes. When I saw this and realized what all the blocks were in the singles, I just was blown away by this song. The music is exactly what it sounds like:Badass.
Trent absolutely outdid himself with this song.
For the real meaning, if this is the sequel to Year Zero(not saying it is or isn't) then I imagine Earth is very fucked after the presence caused havoc, and everyone is living in a Mad Max-esque environment.
I've really noticed this album is about submitting to whatever is controlling you, and not fighting it anymore. Trent touched on this a lot in With Teeth but it's so prevalent in The Slip...
