I had a blast doing this poll after taking a long break. I was supposed to do The B-52's but life got in the way of that one, so I handed it off.

I always thought of "Novacane" as a reaction/response/answer song to the Beastie's "Sabotage", same crushing hard-rock-with-a-backbeat vibe

Ambient Police (sleeve), Saturday, 8 June 2019 01:14 (four years ago) link

The unkle remix of where it's at is absolute shite
