    I'd say I love Insignificance more

    However, I do find myself drumming the beat to Grievance on my desk at school all the time :P

    Very unfair question. I love both.

    I'll have to say Insignificance live and Greivance on the album. Just for now though

    i agree that it is an unfair question!
    i used to love insignificance more, i love it lyrically and i love the drums, but now i'm totally digging the end to grievance more now and it's so awesome live. i've never seen insignificance live so i can't say for sure. i love them both for different reasons, this is like choosing between my children.

  • When I first heard the album, I liked "Insignificance" better... now it is for sure "Grievance." For whatever reason, perhaps because I listened to it so much, the chorus os "Insignificance" just doesn't do it for me anymore... love the verses, but the chorus kind of annoys me. I do like "Play C3 let the song protest," especially live!
    "Grievance" seems more politically stronger... I love it.

    I like the one that ends in "ance" more.

    Grievance every single time. Happen to know the band prefer Grievance too.

    Insignificance is better than almost everything on avacado though. On this we can all agree.

    I always ask myself that. theyre two ridiculously good and very similar songs. I used to like Grievance more because of the drum intro, but I think I like insignificance a little more. the break/bridge whatever you call it is amazing.
