    My screaming wasn't really serious. You heard me cough in the middle of it xD
    I'm not going to pursue singing as any type of career, and I don't like choirs, I just prefer singing songs that I know. Singing isn't really that hard compared to playing other instruments, and I'd rather learn to play the drums properly.
    Thanks for the feedback! I wasn't expecting serious criticism. I expected stuff like 'lol the screaming xD' or 'are you british?' lol

    This song is basically System of A Down with Mike and Chester on vocals... even Mike tries to sing like Serj. I mean it's okay song, but I barely listen to it at all...

    Song is hit or miss with me. It's a highlight on the album imo but I don't care to listen to it anymore. The subject matter is quite refreshing and the lyrics are pretty good.

    The cool thing about LPA's smilies is that you can derive your own meanings from them

    Like a fucking metaphor...

    On topic:

    LOVE this song. Mostly because of two things; Lyrics and Rob fucking Bourdon.

    An alright song, but it would have been so much better if the chorus fit. Should have been a more screamed approach, like the bridge, rather than the weird harmonized SOAD style thing they went with.

    Honestly I feel the exact opposite, that the chorus fits perfectly (if a bit poppy), with the best harmonies and vocal interaction on the album, while I feel that vocals-wise, the bridge could have been a bit more interesting (a really minor complaint though, I really love the song).

    Yeah, i agree with this. I think the only struggle in the song is the bridge, also if its not bad.

    Wow I'm surprised about the negative comments for this song. I feel like this song was almost universally loved when it dropped.

    You're still committing an atrocity.

    I was never a fan of Rebellion.

    I dig how fucked up explosive the intro is.

    The rest of the song doesn't live up to that energetic promise though. The chorus is sorta... flat. Well, the harmonies are nice. I guess I simply wish the song had gone more to the agressive extreme.

    There's nothing that I really find wrong with the song, I just personally have never been able to get into it.
    Maybe it's that the guitar work by Daron doesn't sound "right" to me when fit into the structure of a standard LP song. I would've preferred if he was featured on something like A Line In The Sand.
