(it's also fun to observe the similarities between this and Music: Response by the Chemical Bros!)

@Kellar I think I only really fell in love with it after your Zine.

actually seeing them do this in 2003 at the Concorde might be the best gig I've ever been to - at one point I got shoved into John Peel by some over-enthusiastic moshers.

One of my favorite songs by one of the all-time great rock bands. (And rock lyricists, actually.) Wait, now I have to post Melt-Banana's most pop moment...

I think Scott McCloud's DESTROY!! gets close

@JamesWallis There's a Phonogram scene I've had in my head with Seth Bingo jumping off the top of a building which I always soundtrack mentally with the opening of this. @Kellar Was it 2006 I saw them at the Firkin? I think so. It was amazing. @douglaswolk Hurrah!

I clicked "like" after the first two seconds, that's how much I knew I'd love a song that starts like that. Also, I'm very awake now.

@juliascheele This lasted exactly as long as my shower this morning. POWER SHOWER.

Love this. Love them. I wish I could play guitar like that (or at all, for that matter)

@Kellar - i've seen them at the Engine Rooms in Brighton and it was nuts. Moshpit carnage.
