    The guitar riff sounds just like Travelin Riverside Blues by Zeppelin

    I’m supposed to be working and now I just want to play PJ Invaders.

    I chose Jeff in honor of him writing the song. Super fun and brings back old memories of my Atari!

    I like how Spotify tries to play "similar" songs after your playlist/album ends. Sometimes it's good (following up DOTC with "Love, Reign O'er Me" is not too bad at all), sometimes it's not. The song it played after "Quick Escape" just now?
    Quick Escape.
    Nailed it!

    I think this is my favorite yet! Love that they made a space invaders game, heh.

    Today is the first day I’m off work from all of this... so it was perfect timing for this game. Keeps me distracted enough to not do homework... I love everything they’ve done with this.

    Listening on my new Amazon Music HD trial, sounds great even if only in regular HD. DotC in Ulltra HD, wow!

    Most excellent :transformer: Even better with music.
    For a hot minute I made the leaderboard :skull:
    Quick Escape flat out rocks. Eagerly awaiting the album :rock_on:

    3/3 for sure!!  Intro definitely has a Zeppelin feel to it.  I kept hearing something really familiar in the chorus but couldn't place it until now....

    Anyone else hear some Nirvana - "school" in the chorus??

    Regardless of the comparisons, it's just a badass song!   Can't wait to spin this record and play some PJ space invaders!!

    Wow, that is a great fn tune!  It usually takes a few listens for me to like/appreciate most songs.  This one nailed it on the first listen!
    The layering of the guitars, bass and drums is incredible!  It def had a Zep - When the Levy Breaks vibe mixed in with a little Rage (Tom Morello).
    Good stuff!

    A little bit. Wouldn’t have ever noticed it but now that ya mention it, it is a little similar. I could hear “no recess” where he says “quick escape”

    Does anyone think the video of Quick Escape would have been what we saw in the March 25 movie theater experience?  Hearing that song with the video on a large screen with Dolby Atmos would have been amazing and worth the price of admission.
