come on now - whatever that track is, it's humourous.  i mean, it is just a
joke at the expense of the metal/industrial groups who take themselves so
seriously.  just stand in the middle of that track, and listen...   those
howls!  the track makes me piss my pants with laughter every time i hear
it..  also, notice the production, it has no bass, it's all compressed and
crunched up to fuck, it's got a pop production.  pity the poor mtv kids who
think this track is cool...  not that i don't like it, i think it's great!

and really, some people here seem to be stuck in one mode as far as
listening to music goes, which is quite sad..  we have people who can't
appreciate the new digital cut-up music on come to daddy, others complain
when they hear a vocal - and to be honest, i don't think it's down to
taste - people just don't listen to the music in the right way..  i'll admit
i used to think the same things about vocals and acoustic instruments in
electronic music.  basically i just grew up.  there is no point in listening
to music that offers no surprises, people who do that may as well just buy
wallpaper
