This song sounds like 'The End Has No End' by the Strokes, which is an interpolation of 'Sweet Child O' Mine' by Guns and Roses. This is exactly the effect No Cities To Love is going for - and that's why I love it. It's purposely borrowing from popular songs of the day as many fans have pointed out, but for the sake of demonstrating that damage that other bands have done by 'stealing' verses and solos from music in the past. This is why Sleater-Kinney is art.
