Black Out - 5
Brinx Job - 3
Grounded - 5
Serpentine Pad - 4
Motion Suggests Itself - 3.5
Father to a Sister of a Thought - 3.5

Grave Architecture - 5
At & T - 5
Flux = Rad - 4
Fight This Generation - 4.5
Kennel District - 5

I didn't think that "there is no castration fear" could be topped when I listened to that song for the first time. I laughed at the brazilian nuts bit.

The only song on this album I skip is climbing up the walls, it's a bit out of place and kills the somewhat upbeat tone of electioneering and no surprises.
I'm not a bit electioneering fan though...
