A buzzing little 6/8 head swinger, one of the best heavy experiments of Julian Casablancas. The guitars, mostly playing single strings, layer into sweet cumulative chord combinations. They have gain on them but barely. I love heavy songs where the guitar isn't a god damned buzz saw, achieving power with note selection rather than brute wattage. The drums are the core of the song's excellence, morphing from a cool, contained hi-hat 6-beat to a big smashing release, to a cycle of tom drums, to a minimal bridge beat with a duplet poly-rhythm.

The vocal is dark, controlled but also hitting aggressive one-syllable blasts. I love the voice of Julian Casablancas, the laconic attitude with fierce brown eyes, the baritone timbre, the vibrato delivery, the always strange phrasing. His melodies are never, ever conventional. They are always his.
