I Just Bought Purgatory Afterglow And...

[Dhalaren]

The CD has ten songs, but there are around 7 extra tracks that are all 4 seconds long except the last one which is 3 seconds. I was wondering if it's like that on all the CD's or just mine (which is highly unlikely)?

 

[Miller High Death]

I don't know. I don't ussually listen all the way through because I can't stand the sirens song because dread's vocals are horrible.

 

[Dhalaren]

I don't like them either, that is by far the worst song on the CD.

 

[Cerebus]

I think all the cds' got that.. mine does and so does all of my friends' verions

 

[The Neckless Lobster]

Yeah, my copy does that too, could never figure out why. Must have had an agreement with Black Mark to make the album a certain time-length, I guess. And I happen to like "Sirens". Far from my favorite EoS tune, but it has kind of a fun, rocking-out quality to it. A neat way to end the album, I guess...

The version on Evolution is pretty good.. never cared much for the one on PA, though.

I remember reading somewhere that it was to throw off the random function on cd players.

 

[Occultor]

I got it too, really annoying i think.

Dan replied before the site went down and deleted his post. He said that he wanted to have 99 tracks on the cd, but back in the day when he made the CD it took like 10 minutes or so to put 1 track onto a disc. When he made it to 21 tracks he stopped because it would take too long.

 

[TheFourthHorseman]

Actually he said that it would cost too much...well, actually I'm not sure why, maybe because the time in the studio cost too much? That would make sense.

 

[Occultor]

Okey, and why did he want 99 tracks? Sounds really unnecessary.

To throw off the random feature in cd players (for whatever reason), someone said (not Dan, I think, damn database failure).
