Album: My Dinosaur Life (2010)

Songfacts®:

  • Bass player Matt Taylor told Alternative Press about the song: "We wrote this one in November 2008 during our first writing session for the album. After a couple minutes of jamming - I hate that word - Tony and I started playing the bass and drum part that you hear right at the top. I'm a sucker for when drummers play the rims of their drums with kick and snare. I think that's Fugazi's fault. Anyway, all the parts of the song came together very quickly after those first few minutes. Once Justin added his vocals, the song ended up sounding frantic, desperate, confused and angry. It's my current favorite on the record."
