[pricklyphlox]

Yay. Good song. I had it in my ear as an ear worm, like in Star Trek Wrath of Khan.

[tharbk01]

good for cruisin on ur board

[BonesawJonez]

pretty positive Division is a reference to Joy Division, this song is about MJQ concourse in atlanta where Jordan and the rest of the are from, and it would be completely normal to walkin into a Joy Division track being played.

[666flatliner]

yo, I've been there! Take a chick to damn concert just to loose her to the back-stage after party...oh, young lust!!!!!

[4amstuckonearth]

This is CHOON /b/ro

[randomguy983]

If you found a copy of L.A. Riots remix,and played it through something with better bass than the tweeters next to your computer;you would get the true experience,love it.

[dynamik008]

@randomguy983 the Le Castle Vania remix is the best remix for it. Never heard the LA Riots one.

[randomguy983]

@dynamik008 I apologise,Le Castle Vania remix is on the L.A Riots disc.I found it from some random Sion dealership;It has Building Blocks from,uh some band whose name escapes me at the moment,It's a great mix album anyway.

[dynamik008]

@randomguy983 I was looking for a LA Riots remix, lol. No wonder why I never found it. Anyways, I guess were both talking about LCV's remix. Good stuff. If you like that, I recommend Treasure Fingers' remix of another Snowden song called "Anti-Anti"

[randomguy983]

@dynamik008 Thanks man,I look it up on here.

[alcala323]

Really like this. The Le Castle Vania mix is ace too. Anyone have any recommendations for tracks/bands like this? Don't follow rock much anymore.

[sueannwashere]

this song is the SHIT!

[ski1jump]

Heard this in a ski movie...epic!

[Mrcharliebobo]

Who's the fucking knucklehead who thumbed this down???

[cyanatelolwut]

where are the Snowdens of yesteryear?

[EarOntheTracks]

Le Castle Vania's remix does it justice though

[CluckinAmazingRetro]

Great song! The drums are quite rad as well!

[ivanawinalot]

I like the lyrics, but i cant fully comprehend them. can anyone help?

[emporersfinest]

good song. did not like the end but once you listen to it and get the lyrics kinda grows on you. does remind you of some parties or clubs and people you meet, when your looking for someone not like everyone else.

[Niguh345]

Watch the drive thru series on fuel tv if you want to hear snowden to sick ass surfing

[bangbang3211]

love this song

i found out about it on Props wit the props bio

AWESOME SONG

[KxK96]

@phocon1

OWNED Lol XD

[phocon1]

The oriental chick bass player is really hot and she plays a mean bass too!

[littleweloosmom]

Just so you know, "Oriental" should only be used to refer to a style, such as oriental rug, lamp, etc. It is insulting when used to refer to a person. Not flaming you, most people don't realize that so I feel obligated to inform. Cheers!

[infernogamers]

@littleweloosmom well thats a load of bullshit

[f1471in3r]

@infernogamers no, no it isn't

[vicarious709]

@littleweloosmom well for someone in the western hemisphere, so a person in the east is by definition oriental. just saying. cheers.

[tharbk01]

@littleweloosmom they sound like ignorant fools lol

[chemfreak53]

I give the whole album @+!

[EthanKolasinski]

Love it!

[dariofrigo]

Fantastic song by a fantastic band!

[TopSoul13]

[dariofrigo]

Great song

[thaddeusbuc]

Every single song from these guys are perfect.!!

[Poxihxc]

I love this song. amazinggggg

[stepup2stepout]

The Le Castle Vania remix is pretty tight.

[ChoklitBizkit]

I like the LA Riots version of this better, strangely.

[AnnaIsCo0l]

dont wanna sing now

dont wanna shake shake shake

best part lol. :DD

[faunflynn]

Oh that's weird, he sounds like he's from my island Sark. Peculiar.

Great tune.

[cautionlaura]

<3333!

[casimir1011]

never even knew these guys were on the planet untill i was watchin an episode of drive thru south africa, to bad mtv doesnt play good music like this.

[ilsuckurmotherstitts]

true story

[vanebanshees]

Me encanta¡¡

[cslatr]

This song has such an exciting energy. It turns me on. };-> Almost can't tell what decade it is from. I like that. I like their other stuff too. They could break out a bit, but whatever. Cool.

[rushi2k7]

i disagree greatestdane i dig their tunes too and thing its great that they use the same style all the time, i cant imagine them using a different style .

[GreatestDane92]

I saw these guys because of a Kings of Leon tour thing, and they were there. I really dig their tunes, but it becomes like listening to AC/DC, if you listen for too much it'll get on your nerves because they use the same effects in every song.

[8592534444]

Bands grow, dude. I think these guys will be just a little more dynamic than AC-DC and their time together grows. kinda of a low-blow on your part.

[cherryemz88]

does anyone know where i can find the version which is like a remix with 'dont wanna shake now dont wanna shake shake shake??'

[dactyle]

It's a remix by "La Castle Vania," and can be found on the LA Riots sampler CD.

[xxjosh360xx]

Le lol

[ilsuckurmotherstitts]

this aint the remix.its the original.

[raoullrox]

luuv it also luv das remix to this too ;D

[BYROM3YA]

ohh i need this song on itunes to get it on my iPhone Could Someone Send It Me By Msn??

[Mce6v]

Snowden is badass, the only reason I found out who they were is from the Le Castle Vania remix on some random podcast. good song tho'. the original is soo much better than the remix.

[PlasticCharlie]

omg. I thought I was the only one ever heard of Snowden. I have their album and I personally think that the song Anti-anti is better. ^^ But this song is also great. ;P

[chairlover721]

they have a great sound! Saw them this past weekend in Louisville

[rkell48]

I love this song so much!!!!!!!!

[saculaicrag]

does anyone know where i can download this?

snowden are awesome. i saw them supporting kings of leon. they're so good live!

[chairlover721]

Where did you see them & KOL?

[minimumcontacts]

this song destroys itself at 2:35. it's a shame since the first 2:34 kick effen arse!

[AlternativeUses]

how so? thats the point where the viewpoint of the narrator changes

[minimumcontacts]

not lyrically, but musically. don't get me wrong, i've already downloaded it....it's a good tune, however, it goes downhill at around 2:35 - 2:40 with an unecessarily convoluted ending. the beauty of the first half is the simple energy of it. this song goes from a tight, upbeat, energetic number into an airy, dreampoppy sound w/too many intruments. they threw everything in besides the kitchen sink at the end imho.

[AlternativeUses]

yeah i can see that. its subjective though. snowden is an acquired taste. listen to "anti-anti"

[minimumcontacts]

i have and i like.

[TheMoonman157]

@minimumcontacts after 2:35 is my favourite part man

[666flatliner]

@TheMoonman157 agreed... i think the breakdown has good movement all the way through the outro.. in fact the whole damn song is good.....jmo

[righi80]

@minimumcontacts

i disagree, i think that at 2.35 there's a climax bringing the listener to a different point of the story and to different feelings. the guitar riff gives me the creeps.

But it's art, hence subjective

[soulcalibur22]

@minimumcontacts nah that parts great :P

[bigboner87]

@minimumcontacts You're full of shit, dude.

[camboxcutie]

love it

[akula06]

hey cool. i didn't know this band existed until i heard this track remixed by LA Riots. not bad either way, if you ask me
