Album Notes & Community Reviews
Blends rapid, aggressively strummed acoustic guitars with a stuttering, shifting time signature and a chaotic, computer-manipulated guitar solo. The track bridges the band's traditional alternative rock instrumentation with their IDM influences, serving as a standout, rhythmically complex moment on 'Hail to the Thief'. Its lyrics reflect the creeping political paranoia of the Bush and Blair administrations.
