Transcription

Background

The song is the band's first to use synthesisers, which would be featured more prominently in their later albums, as featured in the electronic-heavy intro alongside a drum machine before the track bursts into a heavy riff in drop D tuning. According to frontman Simon Neil, the reason for this unconventional opening was to lead listeners into thinking they had bought the wrong album.[2]
