oh my god? now that I've heard a good quality clip I can hear that Matt goes four to the floor bass drum on the chorus, with alternating off-beats on the hat, like disco indie? it's absolutely bonkers, PJ have never done that, but I love it

That little plinky riff (can't think of a better term)
Reminds me of the thing Mike does in the intro when they cover Baba O'Riley

I think that's where people were coming up with The Police references

This one has a Riot Act/Green Disease feel to me. Only more metal. Hope this becomes a crowd favorite at shows.

I never liked Johnny Guitar, but I hear some of what that song was going for in this one, done a LOT better. It's probably mostly the "plinky riff" referenced above.

Liked it a lot on the bootleg.
I expect this one to benefit the most from studio quality once it’s released.

This one has the most Ten era McCready solo outro.

Overall, it's nothing special though.

There's some soaring guitars just ahead of the chorus that I really like.

Everyone keeps calling this a highlight and I’d love to enjoy a live version. But I cringe at the “don’t react, respond” bit.

could've done without the bit of earthing-style, computerized-eddie vocal at the end of the second (?) chorus, but that's my only problem with this one.

Fair. Especially because it expresses the opposite sentiment of the song title.

Wasn't sure about this one when it started, but it's in my head now. Initial reaction is it's PJ trying to sound like a couple of their influences and actually pulling it off.
