Talk:An Insult To The Fact Checkers

From This Might Be A Wiki

They Might be Frank Black[edit]

I really quite like this one. Great riff and guitar/keyboard(?) break. Flans does a good job on the lazy vocal. Reminds me of early Frank Black. One of the highlights of the album. Proper garage song. (Mr Tuck)

Really? This is one of the songs that, no matter how many times I listen to it, I can't enjoy it (akin to You'll Miss Me and Spy). I find that Flans sounds like he's bored, not lazy. This one and McCafferty's Bib are the low points on the album for me (The "As we float away" part of I Like Fun has gotten stuck in my head for weeks, so they must have done something right).--MidoFS (talk) 19:10, 25 February 2018 (EST)
This song must have the most mixed reputation forever. I actually really like this song. As an animator, I played the entire I Like Fun album in the background while animating despite not finding it very catchy, and eventually I grew to like all the songs, including this one. But whatever, we all have our opinions. --DoubleDenial (talk) 19:19, 25 February 2018 (EST)

Versatility[edit]

I get a Superchunk vibe. It really speaks to Flans' versatility that he could have a raging rocker like this on the same album as the mellow "This Microphone" and the airy "The Greatest". But we've known this for years...rock on, Flans! --MisterMe (talk) 10:59, 16 July 2018 (EDT)

Very Mono-Puffy Guitar Riff[edit]

"Backstabbing Liar" meets "Hillbilly Drummer Girl"

Video[edit]

The video is super special, integrated with the song in fascinating ways. --Nehushtan (talk) 23:17, 18 August 2019 (EDT)
