Is it really played out to love the coda to "Layla"

Cause, uh, that's about as good as pop music gets in my opinion

Nice to see someone mention that band. I like them a good bit. Not the best post-rock out there, but it is certainly pretty rad.

"Blew Away" - Smashing Pumpkins
Near the end of the song, during the guitar bridge before the last verse ("I want to let her know / that I won't let her go ...") the two triplets are absolutely perfectly placed, paced, and played. Absolutely love those three seconds.

All of my responses for this thread would probably be from The Smashing Pumpkins, so I'll try to think of others, but first ... The dynamics in Porcelina of the Vast Oceans (specifically the intro to chorus), the same for Soma, the build up from the bridge in Geek U.S.A. to the solo, the strange nostalgic feeling that the intro outro to 1979 induces. The opening line to Muzzle. Today blahblahblahllahblalblahlbllahlblalhlblalhlblalhlbah. I could go on forever.

Quote :

"In Red Animal War's "when fat pigs fly" the bridge in that song that starts with the lyrics 'when fat pigs fly...' absolutely makes that song. Never was sure what it was but the mood of that little section its absolutely freaking perfect for its spot in the song and I think that every time I hear the song still to this day."

I was in a band in high school and we played a show with RAW. True story. Damn good band. We were terrible, though, lol. And I agree with your sentiment.
