Ken Andrews is a great musical talent. The band Failure is amazing. This Year of the Rabbit was a side project during the time Failure was basically over. Ken was dealing with a heroin addiction, as the lyrics probably tell. Long story short, Ken kicked the smack and got his shit together but YotR didn't pan out. He later reformed Failure and the produced the best music records of their bands career (IMO) and are still making more. Plus Ken has had his part in so many big hits over the years. He is a true inspirational type of guy.

Still a fucking rockin tune and I just recently got a copy on vinyl and it sounds soooooooo good. I remember seeing YotR at a small venue in Seattle, seriously maybe 80 people in the crowd. They were so good. I chatted with the band outside after the show. It is a great memory.

this song gets stuck in my head all the time, the ending is so good. Its the last song on side A, which makes that last part even more epic
