Song information

Love Buzz

Circa Survive vocalist Anthony Green said the band picked "Love Buzz" because it was the first Nirvana song he ever heard and elaborated: "It's simple but hits so hard. I remember listening to it and feeling like 'I could do this' because of how accessible it felt."[2]

School

Basement vocalist Andrew Fisher said his band picked "School" because of how simple and heavy yet dynamic it was, and elaborated: "We flirted with the idea of trying to make it 'our own' and change it, but because the song is so simple everything we came up with sounded forced and wrong. Instead we thought we'd try our best to do the song justice and so recorded it live and tried to keep it as true to the original as possible."[3]

Paper Cuts

On their 7-minute-long cover of "Paper Cuts," This Will Destroy You said: "The framework for "Paper Cuts" was a welcomed challenge to work on as the track is already doomy and repetitive. Going slow and low seemed to be the way to put our own stamp on the cover while maintaining the rawness and intensity of the original."[4]

gollark: Assuming no weirdness, if you run a highly advanced physics simulator on a Turing machine and load in a brain, said brain will "multitask".
gollark: Multitasking isn't relevant to what it can compute.
gollark: i.e. not really, but close enough that it can do the same stuff.
gollark: A TM can multitask just like a single-core computer can.
gollark: It can't literally do two things at once, but if you have infinite time it doesn't matter.
