Song Review

Bad Vultee is a song on the SSV album. It is the fourth track on the LP and CD.
The song has a few different synth lines, some at the start sounding rather uplifting, making Bad Vultee one of the better songs on the SSV album.

Vultee was an old aircraft firm, the idea of the song being a lot of "measurements" is somewhat reminiscent of the Gift song, Finland Red, Egypt White.

The following verse sounds phased and flanged, so it's a little hard to hear what's being said
One thousand and fourty-eight square feet
