question...

[Hiss_]

this is a pointless straightforward thread, so it may be left to die after a straight answer is given


does Serenity Painted Death from the album Still Life have an abrupt ending on purpose or is my soundclip a bad one and i should aquire a new one which includes the entire ending?

 

[blakmetalemp]

the song is 9 min 13secs long but it does just stop

 

[Hiss_]

cool, thx man

 

[bleedingskeptic]

i thought that the power went out in the studio when they were recording it?

 

[crimsonfloyd]

Mikeal said they did that because the previous two songs were fade outs and they didnt want thre fade outs in a row. Personaly I think it sounds awful and I think they should of at least made White Cluster cut it off, but the song realy deserved a prope ending...

hey ho, another question...does "pull me under" on dream theater's images and words end like that too? i mean it does on my cd, i just wanna know if it's on every cd.

 

[Hiss_]

yes!
its coz the song is based on shakespeare's Hamlet and since Hamlet dies abruptly, the song ends suddenly as well

 

[bleedingskeptic]

yeah, pull me under ends real weird. i thought my cd was fucked up first time i listened to it.

 

[Rusty]

Yeah, they did it deliberately. I thought it was my CD at first.

The outro of SPD: brilliantly cathartic or aimless and inappropriate? Discuss.

 

[Kushantaiidan]

I love the way SPD ends. Think of the way the story goes. It's perfect. so shut up.

END.

Aimless. Mikeal basicaly admitted it by saying they did it simply to avoid 3 strieght fadeouts. Bad reason...

every type o negative song ends abrubtly too (well almost every )
and i dont know , when songs get cut off like that its like its not supposed to happen or its unnatural or something. i dont like it.

 

[blakmetalemp]

hehe, I like the way T.O.N did the first song on World Coming Down. I thought my cd player was skipping.

 

[SentencedToBurn]
