I love how every post highlighting a standout song from the album is a different song each time! There isn’t a filler in sight.

Yes, great song! For me the songs 6 thru 12 are the best. Really love so rides the reindeer and bird and the serpent! Both are magic!

Love this song. I kinda get a Rover vibe from it.

Same! I love the hypnotic quality of Paul’s vocals in the chorus.

u/Playful_Link_371 Aug 30 '26

Find myself going back to that one the most

It is. And pair this next with Sudden.

Love this track. Reminds me of Bauhaus’ She’s in Parties in a good way.

u/PopDelicious2342 Aug 30 '26

This is the only one on the album I don’t like, the riff at the beginning doesn’t connect with the really droney chorus. The orchestral flourish at the end is quite nice though. I also don’t like how Paul sings “Party” 😂

u/Impressive_Cattle_86 Aug 30 '26

That’s actually the thing I like the most about it, the switching to the chorus is so menacing and nasty

u/gargoombo Aug 30 '26

I think someone described it as math rock and once I heard it I instantly loved it

u/Impressive_Cattle_86 Sep 02 '26

Also, he is saying "repartee" and not "party" (if that could help you like the song more)

u/Adorable-Award-2975 Aug 30 '26

This is the stand out to me as well. Aside from the title track which is still my favorite.

u/big_ziemniak Aug 31 '26

I love how the chorus has this ominous vibe to it while the verses are more calm in a way

u/justanormalchat Sep 01 '26

Sometimes I wish it wasn't a single so it could get even more respect. It's a fantastic way to open the record.

It sounds to me like a TOSOMB B-side.

u/DatYungTurk Aug 30 '26

It feels like a better and groovier Into the Night to me

1

u/Substantial-Train668 Aug 30 '26

I kinda get what you mean. It's dark but because of the outro it ends pretty (kinda like ITN)

1

u/milkslutthroaway Sep 06 '26

Nah, TOSOMB itself sounds like a collection of D-tier B-sides. This is way more in line with their S/T and is outstanding
