My Dinosaur Life will be my 2010 AOTY. No doubt.

If I was riding in the car with a friend and that song came on the radio, I would not even realize that that was MCS. Seriously, what has happened to them? Disappear and this song both suck.
Liked Disapear, i think this song would be better as an album track no a single. I still dig it though, it's abit different, his vocals seem to have a heavy Smashing Pumpkins influence.

You really don't like it? I think this is a huge step up on their previous work, which must have been pretty hard to do because their previous work is pretty fantastic.

I heard Justin play the recording of this during the Philly Dino-trail.

that's an umbelievable live performance. i've seen them before, but that sounds near studio quality.

The biggest issue I am having with the songs is Justin's vocals. On Disappear, I hated the way he sang the verses and on this track it doesn't even sound like him. His voices is tame and low on this track and I don't like that.
Also, I really liked the synth on their previous releases. The synth is less noticeable on these tracks, which I don't like.

haha ok i thought that but then i thought it must have been live because of the way the band introduced it, so i wasnt sure.

His voice doesn't have the same intensity and emotion that it has in the past.
Su voz suena rara, la cancion es normal

No...it's just different. I do agree, however that he sound ridiculous sometime in this song, especially on the first verse. Disappear is fucking fantastic though, great energy, great song....really you in the teeth. And though I liked the synth previously, I can live without it.

Si...pero prefiero las canciones mas viejas.
is the download not working for anyone else? i tried just clicking it and right clicking the link and doing 'save as'. both times it dl'ed as an mp3.part file that my itunes won't recognize. crap.

The only gripe I've been having with recent MCS is the vocals aren't like they were in the past. Change is good, I'll just have to get used to it.

Delete the part.

Totally disagree. So far it's looking like this will be worse than EIIKM. I really like EIIKM, but what I've heard so far is just so average and forgettable to me.

Ha, because he wasn't. The actual track sounds wayyy more cleaned up than the live.
Delete the part.
many thanks, man.

About damn time we get a new song.

the song is...unique? I really do like it and it sounds like MCS is having some fun.

Really looking forward to it. I've always loved MCS.
Nice lyrics, but if the whole album is gonna be like this then I'm not really sure I'll like it as much as the others.

Yeah this is a really poor choice for being the next single. The chorus is decent, but the verses and Justin's voice aren't good. It's pretty average and forgettable. The main hook reminds me a little of old Weezer material though, which is cool.

Have you not listened to Disappear?

I don't hate it, but I think I need to accept that MCS will probably never make the album I think they are capable of making.

I like it. But I mean, it's just that. I like it.
I want them to put out an album that I'll love, because they haven't done that since IATM or CTTM.
But yeah, I'm looking forward to a legit release of this album because I can't make a final decision until I hear the whole album.

It does that to mine too and I have no idea why
eh, I like Disappear better. this is still good though.
Vamos a darle un chance al cd, tal vez sea bueno!

the synth was what made them stand out
now its just like.... generic
disappear was incredibly bland
Disappear is so much better than this.
Tate said this is the worst song on the album, though, so there's hope.

Awesome video.
Seems like the something Weezer would make, and I mean that in a good way.
