    "comment": "Chris Ballew:\nI was cleaning my room listening to a minicassette tape of random ideas, and I heard my voice on there saying, “Is this lump out of my head? I think so,” and I couldn’t remember making it up. It was just there on the tape. I demoed it as a slow drum-machine-driven thing and then realized it needed to sound more like the Buzzcocks than Wall of Voodoo. Conrad Uno, who was our producer on the album version, came up with the idea of muting the guitars at the beginning of the track. It was a genius move that showcased the vocal and drew people into the song. Always and forever my favorite song to hear and play.",
