The one thing that stands out from this song are the lyrics, really well written song. And the sound is cool as well. Love how the it speeds up towards the end of the song. Not much else to say about this song, good entry

In 3rd, scoring 5 points

The start of this song reminds me of Spectre vs Rector, which is goat obv, and then crazy **** happens. I actually like the vocals for the first half, but then they get incomprehensible. The sudden change of pace at ~1.30 makes up for it though. Really like this song, and great band name aswell

In 2nd, scoring 7 points

- we knew when you said you'ld been playing a song over and over it wasn't ours; not that it's not great, but it's just not something to put on repeat... maybe?

The other track that we might have submitted for this one was Tunnel of Love by Dire Straits. I really love the outro and ending guitar solo especially <3.

Omigod this is amazing. Like I said before, can't stop listening. Post-punk at it's finest. The repetitive nature of the song is something that is essential in this genre imo. Plus the vocals are really good. Surprised I've never heard of these guys before.

In first, scoring 10 points

Yeah wouldn't want this on repeat for an hour that's for sure.

I mean this was a hugely rich cat - we looked at a bunch of post-punk tracks, & called an audible away from something that might be a cat clash. Here's something we didn't submit, but is a good alt to post-punk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMN9_7tPFCY

I (I'll leave Nick and soma) out of this have a soft spot for some soft-mid80s-indie - eg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JL3rcYKhT1k but it's out of the time zone

and we should have thought about this and similar: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ka-PLgW8iQE

Don't really like the first one, too techno, and the second one is just too similar to the first...

So the Finnish/Estonian Walrus experience? It's certainly the best name so far.

yes - and it's semi-well-known now - well i suppose Alexander Robotnick is semi-well-known - and has been for a longish time (10+ years?). That's maybe his best known track, but by no means his best (from that period), fwiw.
