In which Sleepytime Gorilla Museum go fully metal. I've been waiting for this day for a long, long time. Still, this track is obviously trying to be the new album's answer to "The Donkeyheaded Adversary of Humanity Opens the Discussion." Maybe it's trying a lil' too hard? Thoughts? Discussion? Hello out there?
