It is over.
It was competent enough but, with its lack of tunes and clear vocals, failed to connect on an emotional level.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

It's over.

Yeah, that was alright. Did sound like it was put together in 1998 as an elaborate hoax, on hipster disco lovers, I don't know if that it's not makes it better or not that it isn't?
