Couldn't agree more... makes me feel like im watching some youtube comics tribute... song's nice and all but i't doesn't really say "astonishing" to me. And wtf... they almost give the entire story away in this vid...

I agree whole heartedly.  I think the lyrics are probably okay for this one, but I feel it needed to have more of a sci-fi sound to it.  Kinda techno / industrial maybe?
