    Holy shit, this is fantastic. First that build-up and "nothing can hurt me today" and then just BOOOM exceptional music.

    This might be blasphemy in some circles, but I could totally hear parts of this being played during Dave's sequence on the way to Jupiter after encountering the monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey.

    yah, I know I know... it's mid-March 2012, but I think I can finally commit to this being my fav song of 2011. Fuck it's good. Perfect?

    I woke up stronger than ever, driven by big waves of fire. To run and yell all the way, nothing can hurt me today. Truly, this song makes me feel infinite.

    It's great to find this song here, but it's just epic in high quality.

    And then there's "Steve McQueen", which somehow makes the preceding hour of music feel like its prelude. Point blank, it's as close as most of us will get to being strapped inside a space shuttle, as midway through an almost unbearably tensile verse, you don't hear drums so much as afterburners kicking in. By the chorus, it simply cannot go further up, and it explodes at the perfect moment into hair-metal guitar chords and synth-led skywriting. And yet, because it's almost impossible to say what "Steve McQueen" is about (certainly not the actor), it's capable of glorifying anything you choose-- a slow motion shot of Kirk Gibson rounding the bases in the 1988 World Series, a holiday fireworks display, or getting into your car and simply celebrating the end of an exhausting day." Pitchfork. October 2011 [7]
