am I the only one who feels Rebel Radio is just unfinished?
It's like..boom, the strongest track in years. If it just finished a bit better.
problem with it: first of, halfway through the tune, it feels like it is on repeat and the energy is lost. Second, it misses a real catchy melody. Thirdly...the vocal: it seems like it's the half of a full verse.
"The radio plays the sound in your ear A calling to all, the message is clear"
doesn't it sound like there should be two lines extra?
It feels like singing "I'm gone sent into outa space....", and not finish it with "to fiiiind another race"

You're right about the 'on repeat' part, because I have Rebel Radio on repeat on my car stereo. IMHO Rebel Radio is the #1 track of the album. It doesn't sound unfinished to me. It might be missing certain aspects you've mentioned, but that doesn't make it unfinished. It's awesome exactly the way it is and I think it's really a pitty that it wasn't released as a single. I'd really have loved an (Edit), (Extended Edit) and a (15 LH Re-AMP) version. ( whatever that may sound like )

that's something you could say about any prodge track from the album (also a frequent complaint towards Nasty when it came out) or even since The Fat Of The Land, where they dropped the lenghtier structure (wheres Jilted is an example of higher complexity). actually, that's something you could say about any song that has the vers-chorus form. to me it's a powerful track nonetheless, the subtle bassline added in the last chorus gives me the chills.

Rebel Radio is fire. Best track on the album. One of the best tracks in their repertoire.

If Rebel Radio were to be the first single from the new album everybody would of said how lazy of Liam to borrow beats from one of his most famous tracks. Everybody would have been disappointed.

I don't think any track as first single would have been a succes to be fair.
personally i love get your fight on, but my first reacion was 'meh'
I hope he reworks rebel radio, I know he said it was tough to finish
