Description
In an NME article the song was described as being "flamenco-flecked". When earlier describing the album on twitter Matt was possibly referring to 'Animals' as 'face melting metal flamenco cowboy psychedelia'.
'Animals' is about economies collapsing under the weight of stock market savagery, of industries desperate to "advertise, franchise… kill the competition", and of the greed of bankers who Matt claims should "kill yourself, come on and do us all a favour". Matt says: "This song is conjuring up the rawest form of that feeling of "look what humans are capable of doing, it's shocking.'"[1]
