Cool in the Cool Way

This is quickly becoming my new favorite song. Why, you may ask? Two words: Sarcastic lyrics. It's funny and serious at the same time, just like me on a good day. Also, the keyboard breakdown at the bridge is epic, especially paired with the synthesized vocals -- Am I a dork?/I've got a robot name/ Like I care/Call me it just the same. Hi-larious. Bass-line also kicks ass, and serves as a strong opening, even when it's paired with an abrasive buzz during the introduction (similar to the one that begins "Can't Get Away" by Stardeath and White Dwarfs). I'm sorry--I'm very sensitive to harsh sounds, so give me a break. I've downloaded a couple more of My First Earthquake's songs just to confirm my diagnosis but I think we have a winner!
Remember that Zombie Apocalypse website I was supposed to work on yesterday? Yeah, that didn't happen -- I got distracted by coloring books and a short story I'm writing. Which is also why I didn't bitch about the VMAs in a timely manner. Don't worry -- I'll have a rant up later today. Video after the jump.
