3s & 7s

Here’s the deal: ‘3s & 7s’ is an intelligent song which features the band’s trademarks biker rock riffs and some fine falsettoing by Josh Homme. So it contains the attributes that are consistent with the ever-changing line up, but in a bar brawl with any of their other tracks – even the feeble album tracks from Lullabies To Paralyze – this would be hospitalised in an instant. It’s a weak demo that somehow made it onto the album. Then was released as a single. A lead one at that. Pity.
