For maximum effect, shouldn’t there have been a truck-driver’s gear-shift key-change at “you better go and get your armor”? Maybe even twice?

Lex, loudness in music NEVER needs justification!

I’m pleasantly surprised by the mixed reaction, btw: maybe it’s cuz this was trailed to me with so many OMG BEST THING EVER exclamations, but I expected this to score much higher with everyone.

Though HAHA I might’ve mixed up my invasive contraceptives with my roadside bombs, or IEDs.

I’d just like to publically thank WBS for chopping off the 2nd part of my write-up for this track, which made my “stop right there” claim in the first part seem more than a little disingenuous.

There doesn’t seem to be any point to its loudness, though. It’s just…loud. And that’s it.

But it’s better than “In The Army Now” by Status Quo.

I agree with the people who said it ought to build a bit, earn its loudness, but I really do like loudness, so I’d have given this 8 or 9 easy.

I’ve been listening to “Total Eclipse Of The Heart” a lot lately. It’s not as good as that, though.

Seeing as how the most insightful part of my review was edited out, I guess I’ll put it here instead (to provide context to the rest of my review), ahem: “So…she was from some reality show, right? Oh wait, I know — she did ‘Tattoo’! (Hey, I keep up on these things!) I kind of liked that song okay in the laundromat and grocery store sometimes.”
