I wish Raine would be a little more metaphorical with his lyrics, especially if he's going to get political; look at radiohead - aside from the title, most of hail to the thief is much more subtly anti-bush than "wipe that smile off your face" (and hail to the thief is at least cleverer)
wrapped my hurt in you
took my shelter in that pain
the opiate of blame
is your broken heart

My friend bought hail to the thief and on the very day he bought it, someone broke through his car window and stole it along with the poster that came with it. If thats not irony i donno what is.
Personally, I really don't like Walking in circles...what do u guys like about it? I'm not meaning this in a harsh way...i'm just wondering if i'm missing something..cause it definitely doesnt impress me.

I felt the exact same way about wic the first dozen times I heard it, I thought it sounded really 80s rock and not like olp at all, but lately I've kinda been diggin' it. I think it's easier to like if you don't think of it as olp.
i like walking in circles it seems very classic of them... very, whoa... of course when it comes to olp i have an easy liking.

I know how to do that - ban computer games from the tour bus! I think the problem is too much GTA, not enough books
Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.
I have a question. I saw OLP a couple of weeks ago live with 3 Doors Down. I'm a huge OLP fan and they played two new songs that I really enjoyed. Walking in Circles and some other one I can't remember the name of. Is there any way I can listen to these again like off of mp3 or no?
And to be honest I am waiting for the recorded version to judge whether I like the song or not. I have heard the live version but I dont want to have an opinion on the record before its released.

The other one is called "Wipe that Smile off your face". The best quality so far of them is Craven.
