Thurston's genius (yep) is for melody lines. Nine times out of ten . . . well, seven times out of ten, when I have an SY tune in my head, it's a Thurston vocal melody line. Yeah, it's often a copy of the main riff, but a good melody is a good melody. And melody is probably the hardest thing to write.
This tune has no melody. And it's the title track? I hope it's the worst song of the bunch, but if it's the title track it may very well be the best.
