This song is such an earworm that I don’t even care about the word salad. Agree with pretty much everything in your review though

Animals too - underrated banger

I don't think so. I really enjoy a lot of 2nd Law but I'd say that's where the downward slide started. They've had more of a gradual decline in quality than an out-and-out Trainwreckord

I'd add the caveat that you have to enjoy the process in order to get any good. If you're only interested in the final product and don't get any pleasure from the crafting itself, you'll never have the motivation, and therefore the ability, to improve

Point taken. But this song is still in my top 10 Christmas rotation because it slaps
