That 'Montreal' track has this thing where you got the vocal which has this folky drone and then you got the droning guitar (kinda Keith Levene say in style) and then this repeating bass and drum groove. It's moving but it's got that statis that to me really captures the ever present waiting to get somewhere. I get a visual of a head leaned against a car/bus window while the miles roll on in a totally dead and gray landscape of rain.
"Sold all my records. What a stupid thing to do."
To me, it just captures the emptiness of the quiet times when you have to fight the loop of rumination of your mind turning over failures.
I'm not a huge fan, but I thought this song was pretty killer.
