I believe that this song is about them, in a sense. It's talking about how people can say what they want about them, and they don't care.

The song black mamba is the academy is...'s one simple song to say that they are making music for themselves and they don't care about their mtv publicity. It is clearly said in when they state
oh, mr. Magazine
I never wrote one single thing for you
or your so-called music scene
you don't mean a thing to me

and they also make reference to ignore what the critics say because they can just catch you off of your feet.

I think this song is about them breaking through as a band and the scene that they are in. I think this is a song that is aimed at the critics not the fans in a way, saying that they don't really mind what they are saying about them because they like what they are doing and that is all that matters to them.
