The arrangement of new instruments and Disturbed vocals have totally given a new vibe to this song. It has more darkness and urgency to the message. The beginning evokes melancholy and a sense of being beaten down. The bridge and final roar of the end of the song evoke a warning and scolding to all of us, for not heeding the signs of the breakdown of morals in society. The timpani and the lead singer's voice are earth-shakingly awesome. I do love Simon and Garfunkel's original, but to me, this has topped it.
