The Kiss-Off - "Laying Dead"

I'm actually quite confident that this is the most underrated song in my library. Even though it's still one of my favorite songs, I think it deserves this title because the band only has a handful of plays on last.fm. After finding this song, I couldn't believe how few plays there were, despite the fact that the band only release a five song EP before changing their name to ArpLine (a step down, in my opinion). Even though the singer sounds a lot like the guy from Cold War Kids, the Kiss-Off's music is still totally unique. I've never heard a song with such aggressive keyboards and flailing vocals. It may sound a bit absurd at first, but you will soon after realize the beauty of it.
