Marv- That's Carnt Sleep

and speaking of St E, I'd add the new single Good Thing, if I wanted to include Next Wave in this discussion.

You know, I knew that and I always referred to it as such but just now, I was like, "that can't be right" and I "fixed" it. It sounds normal in the song. I always listen to it and the spelling always bothered me. But I'll defer to the better judgement of a fellow S.E. fan.
