| it doesn't sound like pain at all. i read in an interview, this song is about everything evil in the world basically. advertisements and marketing and crap.... idk. i like the new album, it's got a radiohead-ish quality to it, with the vocals and such. | |

| The intro sounds like No Fear by the Rasmus (most annoying band/song ever) and the rest of the song is a clapping version of You know what they do to guys like us in prison by My Chemical Romance. It has the same cheap cabaret vibe. But I agree with the people above me... it is catchy as hell and the singing is great. | |

| it also sounds alot like "art is hard" by cursive. matchbook are more punk than pop on this new album, but the background guitar in this song is just ridiculous! it sounds out of a cartoon | |

| Just went to see this band not an hour ago in Perth, was awesome. Thye played 'Monsters' as one of the last four songs, and the mosh pit was packed, completely. Anyway, the lyrics I quite like, and the singing is fantastic, especially live. And I agree with what the rest of you [well, the ones actuallt discussing the lyrics] so far. I hear the Hollywood idea loud and clear. It how it controls and creates and takes away from what you/the/we [actors, veiwers,anyone] has. some verses are about the actual movies [example, it came as no surprise you bring me back to life believe me you bleed for me i'll bleed for you i caught you walking through walls drowned with applause] but most I think is about what it does to you. But that's just my opinion. | |
