I can hear the dB's connection on a song like Black and White:


... although I think Alan got a rawer sound than they got on Stands for Decibels. I'm trying to find like a radio session or something to compare the dB's live...

The song 'Black and White'.

Yeah, the structure definitely is based on Black And White, just like Alan and y'all said.
