thefauves:
We've spent a career being misunderstood but the release of this track took the confusion to new levels. In a world where most bands just want to write vague love songs for low IQ couples who spend their weekends at Bunnings and like watching home improvement shows, we wanted to put out a song that actually said something. Celebrate the Failure was a genuine and heartfelt piece about xenophobic nationalism, bottom feeding politicians and 200 years of chronic injustice towards aboriginals. Most people, however, thought it was a piss take on the Olympics. How lines like "It's a black armband view of history / so we're never ever ever ever gonna say sorry" can be interpreted as a light hearted poke at a sporting event remains beyond our comprehension. If ever we needed more confirmation that the average person is a fucking moron then the response to this song was it.
