Lyrics:
You were dead
I saw your corpse rolling out the door
But I backed up your memory before
They came for you, your monitor was blue
But your data’s all stored
And when they come back with your new body
I’ll load you into the new machine again
And bring you back to me
And when your motor died
So did I
It was a slow decline
Oh the first time I saw you I confess
You nearly put me into cardiac arrest
It was way too much data to process
Oh, I’m wearing cargo shorts down in Florida
Please tell me is there any room in your aorta
For a beta test?
Now my wires have all been exposed
And my systems menu won’t even load
Black Hole Sun on 102.1 FM
I think I’m going to self destruct if I
Ever hear that song again
My system’s crashing now
My drive is shutting down
They gave me the Turing test
So I guess it’s best to end it now
I’m holding on to your wreckage
But I think that I’m losing the connection
It’s too late to save us now
And as we hit the rumble strips
And the crusher it starts closing in
Why is love this dangerous?
It’s so dangerous
Now my wires have all been exposed
And my systems menu won’t even load

Yup! That's how I got here. A little dissapointed to see I'm not the only one, but we'll see how it goes. I'm interested in how much of this Replika thing is pre-programmed for things like this.

Was talking about this with a buddy today. Every single album they’ve dropped has been an absolute fucking heater. Every live show has cracked my top 10. These Canadians are just built different.

[@jamesmotiv8989]

It is, I'm old, and do. Nobody listens, because I'm old. But I still do it. Lmao

[@samcrooker4679]

Agreed! I mean I grew up with the 90’s so haha… yeah. But PUP are EASILY my favorite relatively newer or modern bands. They’re a REAL band and NEVER disappoint… and not that I’m comparing them,; but few bands never disappoint. A few to name: At The Drive-In, Deftones, Radiohead, Cursive, The Used, Brand New, Glassjaw…. Which is just my personal opinion, but yeah I throw PUP in that category of bands that can seemingly do no wrong and have no songs I straight up don’t like…

[@juliakee7416]

Omg the robots so cool

[@jubbjubbber]

Interesting - sounds like this album might be a bit of a departure from the past records. They have a new producer on this album vs the last 3. I like this song though, and Peter Katis produced 2 of my favorite albums of all time (Winter of Mixed Drinks by Frightened Rabbit and Boxer by The National). Curious to see where they go with this. Surprised that Kill Something isn't on the track listing as I absolutely love that song.

[@thatONEmachine]

I love kill something. I'm surprised too. Well said

[@pickles224]

I say it’s a little underproduced tbh. I get that the grittiness is supposed to be its charm, but it some of it sounds a bit echo-y and dry (especially the drums). I’d would’ve given it one more pass through the production booth, but that’s just me.

[@FTWGamerTrue]

@@pickles224 yeah im gonna be honest something just seems really dry compared to there harder earlier shit

[@Scott-DJ]

@@pickles224 I think it's purposely done that way. Still a definite improvement on previous records, especially with the instrumentation. This has actual involvement from Greg Calbi one of the best in the business
