    Not all too convinced, but then, I think WWTA was one of PR's less interesting moments, and they made that a single, so... a sign of good things to come, certainly ;-)

    dEUSness aspects aside, it is a cool song. Ridiculously catchy, the kind of synth melody that goes straight to your head and won't leave... I can see myself whistling that one absent-mindedly.

    What the f*ck!

    If this is supposed to be the new dEUS-sound, the old one definitely died...

    anonymous: PR had "new" sound like Nightshopping & WWTA, but also "old" dEUS sounds like Sun Ra, Bad Timing, 7 days 7 weeks... wait & see, this is just one song out of a dozen.

    If you wanna hear the whole song: http://internetradio.vrt.be/radiospeler/v2_prod/wmp.html?qsbrand=41&qsODfile=/internetradio_master/productiesysteem2/programma_od/41_41gros.xml

    ...and skip to 1:41!

    ... at least, we can't say it reminds us of some older tunes...

    I honestly don't know what to think of it yet... Sounded to me like a Prince-LCD Soundsystem duet produced by Soulwax... Or was it a Soulwax cover by Prince remixed by LCD?... I'm lost. But it's not necessarily a bad feeling ...

    I like the start and the fucking guitar and the perfection and tom's distorted parlando and I really dig the bridge (but I frown my eyebrows at the "a brand"-like yelling by the band)

    must say that killer riff reminds me more of TC Matic than of A Brand's mediocrity ..

    the demo version of the architect had a break which sounded like The Rapture (the 'people don't dance no more' part in Whoo Allright Yeah Uh Uh). too bad it didn't make the album version.

  19. it's a cool song. it made me clean my windows! (this is something I do every five years or so)

    To Anonymous (the one with the demo version): sounds great - what about uploading that somewhere? :-)

    To Bart: "it's a great song" or "what a terrible song" ??? As someone once said: "You're either with us or against us" ...

    Not MY dEUS anymore... :( They sound like a catchy English pop band now, they should change their name to "The dEUSes"
