It's a deliberate callback to grunge's original anthem about commodified authenticity, just retargeted: the machine has replaced the label as the thing hollowing out the art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRather than resolve upward, the song keeps its tension coiled through to a minimal, chilling outro, fading the vocal down to a near-whisper instead of building to a release.
