First jam of 2015! Been listening to a fair bit of Death Grips lately but this is pretty much the only song of their's I feel I could share with others without AS much funny looks as if I were to share anything else from them so...enjoy. ;D
Compelling both sonically and videonically... though parts of the video may not be for the foot-fungus-phobic

(Long story short, I saw Death Grips live last week, they played my favorite song, and it ruled.) Sonically, this song is a tone-setting masterpiece, and actually, you can hear it by clicking on the link, so I'm not going to bother to describe its hilariously diseased riff on Salt N' Pepa. Instead, let's focus on the lyrics, which describe the mindstate of someone who's let themselves fall into fear and paranoia after watching (probably a lot of) shocking videos. While the Internet has brought us tools for justice and empathy, it's also made it infinitely easier to poke into the darkest part of humanity, letting us rewind and re-experience our disgust and revulsion over and over.
It's taken me a month or so to get there, but i am calling AOTY.
