I've learned to take what Nick says with a grain of salt, so when he spoke about this one, I was like, "eh. I may not like that one." I was wrong. The beginning of it is reminiscent of Modest Mouse, which is not a bad thing. Yesterday, I was driving with my fiance (who does NOT like 311) while this song was on and she said, "Is this 311? ...I like it." Knowing that the breakdown was coming up I said, "You're about to not like it." Then it came and she just went "Hmpf." True story. I like this song. I think the solo ends too soon and abruptly, always leaves me wanting more.

it's the remix to ignition.

Can't unhear.


But it's my instant #1 on the album. ALthough existential hero is coming up on its tail quickly

My fav song from the album. I just love how it starts slow and just gets faster and faster. Pretty good example of so called "math metal". Cant wait to see it live

The other day I accidentally played the actual album instead of my playlist of the album that removed Friday Afternoon. When it came on, I decided not to skip it and let it play. I think I'm more ok with this song now. It's not ever going to be one of my favorites but I went ahead and added it back to the playlist.

But I'm still leaving out The Call and Tranquility.

Everything you do, it comes back to you, whatever it may be
To just know hate, well that's so sad. What a life, strife
There's much power in anger, but love's a bigger banger
It's a waste to be a hater
All the angst shit is just cheesy
Be positive
Take on the Love and the good Karma
Suckas look up to thugs, they like the attitude... the harder they act just to hide their insecurity
The only thing you always try to be is hard, because you're scared that someone might pull your card
I don’t dis people, I dis ideas. And when I say dis I mean disagree

Totally agree. I'm waiting for Nick to throw a "I'm like so what I'm drunk" in there lol

Yeah I'm not a huge fan of those 2 either. Tranquility is decent, but for some reason I really don't like The Call very much - or at least a lot of parts of it. Can't put my finger on why. I still wouldn't skip it. It's listenable, but yeah.. idk

I'm hearing more Avenged Sevenfold than Faith No More.

Totally! B-) Both are very slow reggae with the echoed guitars. The distorted guitar part that goes on at the same time reminds me of the end of "1,2,3" as well.
