F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. is a song by post-hardcore band The Fall of Troy. It appears on the band's sophomore album Doppelgänger. The song is also the first single from the band to be released with a video.
The song is considered The Fall of Troy's most popular, and it can be heard everywhere from public radio to the soundtrack to the Xbox 360 game Saint's Row.
[edit] Remaking F.C.P.S.I.T.S.G.E.P.G.E.P.G.E.P.
The song is actually a remake of the song F.C.P.S.I.T.S.G.E.P.G.E.P.G.E.P., which originally appeared on their self-titled album. In the rerecorded version, the song is sped up, and the parts played by Tim Ward (bassist) and Thomas Erak (guitar, vocals) are heavily edited. Instead of Tim playing the melody, Tom plays the melody, and Tim provides a harmonizing bassline.
Other differences include the length of the tracks; F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. is about 40 seconds shorter.
[edit] Song Name
The song's name is actually a shortened version of "F.C.P.S.I.T.S.G.E.P.G.E.P.G.E.P.", getting rid of everything after "F.C.P." but with the addition of "R.E.M.I.X." to imply that it is a heavily edited remake of the song, and not the same like the other rerecorded songs on Doppelgänger.
The meaning of the original acronym has been heavily debated, however, the group claims that if anyone thinks they know what the name means, they're wrong because there is no intentional meaning.
