... Thank you very much!!! Not heard this before.... Sounds like a good, energetic, dare I say 'back to basics' track from the boys.

Ok... here goes the second listen!

Got to hear it last night. It's different for them. It'll take a few listens for it to sink in, but it's got me excited for the direction of the new album.

And perfect timing GrayKing. I've been hardcore with them lately. wink

It reminds me a lot of the Hives' stuff...it's got great guitar riffs but I think I have to get used to it...it's definitely a lot harder than any of their other stuff...

I'm pretty curious to hear their cover of Kraftwerk's "Neon Lights" too. Great song.

Seems more like something they would've done in their Achtung/Zooropa days though.

It almost sounds like something off Pop but backed with a real band instead of synths and drum machines. Very upbeat. Not bad.
