...track “Spin the Bottle” is an instance of this indulgence. The chorus goes “I’m in love with you, you’re in love with me.” This track in many ways exemplifies the album: while the lyrics are fairly mindless, the music is redeemed through its copious hooks and infectious dancability. The simplicity of the lyrics encourages singing along even at first listen and the rhythmic guitars inspire instant foot tapping...

...gleefully exclaims “I got music coming out of my hands and feet!” Similarly experimental, the bluesy “4 Chords Of The Apocalypse” opens as a keyboard-fueled shuffle before devolving into a grungy rave-up in the chorus with Casablancas shredding his vocal chords over churning twin-guitar solos.

During the chorus, the guitar carries out one-noted solos with an inharmonious female voice in the back, creating a Pixies-esque mood.

...assassination of an important revolutionary leader in June 1981. Several weeks later in September, an even larger crowd dressed in green and numbering in the tens of thousands effectively hijacked the annual Jerusalem Day rallies held across the country. Shouts of "Death to Israel" were replaced by a chorus of "Not Gaza, not Lebanon, my life only for Iran!" and "Death to Russia," the latter slogan the consequence of Moscow's early acceptance of the presidential election results...
