This is one of the songs where I like the instrumentals better than the vocals, though the vocals are miles and miles ahead of the songs on UP and Uplifter. Chad's drumming is impressive. I wish he would go all out more. I like his subtlety, but I like when he really rips, too. The shift to half-time at the end is neat.

My fave. Jams so hard and grooves so sweet.

Fucking jam. Love SA's delivery on the "where is the garden of eden" line.

Fucking jam. Love the beginning sounds like vintage 311.

The vocal effects on Nick's verse is an eargasm in headphones. Harkens back to SS/FC/Transistor days. This is as close to I've come in picking a favorite it, it's def the front runner right now. Chad's double bass drum pattern little part in the outro is just unreal. Adds so much. My favorite Mahoney song. The whole band is so on point here!!

So much discussion of the boom box sample but no mention anywhere of the Welcome sample that kicks this off?

The opening flows perfectly.

That's cause the Welcome sample is fucking awesome, and should be done more often in future 311 tracks, if not just for live shows....

fixed.

the drumming chad does is just amazing!!! Love the raps too, this song reminds me the closest should I even say "Six"? Cand get this song out of my head, and its on the perfect spot of the album as well

This song is just another one trying to get into my top 5.

It might just make it.

You know you've got a good album when it's between 5 or 6 songs for your favorite.

I am loving this one more and more...in fact the First Dimension -> Made in the Shade -> Existential Hero run is the highlight of the album for me
