    a comp has no ambition to grade, so it's just execution, and the execution is a label meeting. nothing before higher ground, no can't stop, then two 2003 tracks bolted on the end so it counts as new. frusciante's falsetto on otherside is the only thing here doing real work and the sequencing keeps burying it behind kiedis.
