    “Don’t be afraid of the view from economy class, it’s just the captain and crew jumping off of the mast”

      They haven't had a lot of popularity in the US market for sure, but they do well in Canada, and near as I can tell they do well in Europe. Germany in particular really really likes them.

      @@operative2136 I'm from the US and they randomly came on a mix I had going two months ago. Never heard of them before, and now they're one of my favs. Insane they never "made" it here. Their style doesn't really fit the US radio market, tho, which is a shame.

    Is never given enough today
    I'm tired of looking the other way
    (Respect!)
    An appetite that we can't sustain
    We're on a mission to kiss our days away
    So how long before the rivers start to rise, dear?
    Yeah I thank my lucky stars to be alive here
    A generation of castaways
    Under a nation of tidal waves
    (Respect!)
    Are we the passengers or the prey?
    You can't escape from the past on holiday
    So how long before the rivers start to rise, dear?
    Pack your bags because the tide is getting high
    Don't be afraid of the view from economy class
    It's just the captain and crew jumping off of the mast
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    Who's gonna sound the alarm when the bridges collapse?
    Is this the point where the bomb reaches critical mass?
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    Catastrophic events don't change
    Today we feast, but tomorrow we pay
    (Respect!)
    But don't you worry cause you'll be safe
    I got a ticket to piss your days away
    So how long before the rivers start to rise, dear?
    Yeah I thank my lucky stars to be alive here
    Don't be afraid of the view from economy class
    It's just the captain and crew jumping off of the mast
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    Who's gonna sound the alarm when the bridges collapse?

    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    One city from the coast disappearing too fast
    One city from the coast sunk into the past
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    All aboard on the ghost ship of cannibal rats
    One city from the coast disappearing too fast
    One city from the coast, we can never come back

    These visuals remind me a lot of Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009), directed by Wes Anderson--but it looks more real. Darker colour palette and less brightness, too. This goes well with the sound, style, and subject matter of the song. @BillyTalentBand have been releasing life-changingly good music for twenty years now, and they still sound lightyears ahead of their time. I love it.
