Under Cool New Music as well as the Hot Picks section of Allaccess. Probably not going to do much on the charts but a great follow up to "Gooey"

That was terrible, though to their credit that's what I was expecting.

I like this, but not as much as Gooey.

I didn't think it was possible, but I actually find this more annoying than "Gooey"

I didn't think it was possible, but I actually find this more annoying than "Gooey" My station in KC has had "Gooey" in heavy rotation since March of LAST year. For the first 8 or 9 months, I hated it. Somehow through repetition, It really grew on me out of nowhere. I definitely know where you are coming from though haha.

This is alright. Compared to "Gooey", this is a masterpiece. I don't see anything wrong with it, but it just feels like it's kind of there.

If some of you are saying that is even worse than "Gooey," then I'm not going to waste my time listening to this. That was one of the worst songs I heard last year.

I would have preferred "Pools", that track is my favorite from these guys. This one doesn't have that much going for it, pretty bare instrumentally.

Pools is so much better - this really drags for me, and it sounds too much like Gooey

"Gooey" was just gooey. Upon first listen to this song: I like the mono sound...and that's all. :|

I may have liked "Gooey" but this sounds too much like Alt-J for my liking.

I love this band but I'm quite surprised at how well their singles are doing - happily surprised

This whole time, I thought the "mambo" was a racist term towards blacks, but now I realized that it's just a play on the Black Mamba snake. Must have confused it with Black Sambo or something like that

Now that this has been remastered, it's now higher in sales than Gooey ever was - it's now the 11th highest selling song on the Alt chart

There's a new "2015 Radio Edit" on Allaccess. In my opinion it just made the song worse.

They're still promoting the album on AllAccess, so I hope that Gold Lime thing was a random fluke

BTW they pulled Gold Lime from AllAccess CNM - no clue what that whole thing was about - maybe they needed a new single to release in England, where Pools and Hazey both already charted (in 2014)
