It doesn’t matter. I take a song at face value and not interrogate it any further. It sounds great and is musically fantastic. I’m more just in awe at how good Travis drum sound is in comparison to now, how much cooler Tom is than Feldy, and Mark’s vocals here have really grown on me since his recent robot voice phase. I used to not like it, hitting nice in this early fall weather. This is what pumpkin spice lattes were made for. 1 Quote
allsystemsgo Posted August 27, 2025 Posted August 27, 2025 Snake Charmer has a fantastic chorus. It rocks and isn't a recycled blink melody, or at least I can't think of one similar. 1 Quote

The horse is dead, I know, but man the runs of older albums make you appreciate it more and more. 1 Quote

Strriiii-iiii—nnnngsss. Like what are we doing here? It’s actually easily forgivable because they were just learning how to write so I’m not hating on it. Just saying I don’t get the overwhelming love people have shown it here 1 1 Quote

He's literally talking about Adam and Eve - the beginning of time. And uses "starting line" instead of "start of time" Shit should have written itself. 1 1 Quote

Jan Mortensen Posted August 28, 2025 Posted August 28, 2025 Snake Charmer exists for the chorus. It’s one of the best choruses and melodies. Verses are eh. But you live for the chorus. Personally a big fan of the bridge too. Quote

I’ll listen to it just for that then turn it off when the verse starts. “Creeps in her like a spider” lol peak cringe Quote
