I've first heard it in some Gmod animation and it's quite catchy that I decided to listen to the full song.

It also introduced me to the band "Killing Joke" and I'm looking to listen to more of their songs.

The most elaborate example of Symphonic Metal that I'm aware of, all without going over-the-top with howler-monkey-screamo vocals or jackhammer mode on the guitar strings or percussion.

This is THE song to sell the genre! I desperately wish there was more like this!

Not sure what it is about this song but it really gets me. A sort of slightly melancholic ecstasy.

I have a soft spot for dense, relatable semi-nonsense lyrics à la "I Am The Walrus" by the Beatles. My corresponding playlist is still rather short, so feel welcome to recommend any that you know. This one scratches the itch. It's based on tweets from back then when Twitter wasn't a shitshow.

Favourite part:

On the floor like a wild potato

Monkey monkey monkey - that's so cute

In the grim future of Hello Kitty

There is only war

A few key paradigm shifts could save the heart of the world

Having a relationship, is it worth giving up on sex with so many people?

Blue is not a flavor

Where's my Yeti?

I did not get to know placebo back when I was a teen. I missed so many wonderful songs back then.

Not only this particular song is great, it's very actual today.

It's the disease of the age
It's the disease that we crave
Alone at the end of the ride
We catch the last bus home
Corporate America wakes
Coffee republic and cakes
We open the latch on the gate
Of the hole that we call a home

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me, protect me
