The Lotus Eater Ending

[Amogh]

And what about the Burden ending? Sounds like guitars going off tune. Haha.

 

[Gëist]

The ending (and the mood of the song) make me feel like I'm in some dingy Victorian-Era tavern.

Made me think of a ghostly feast, with the violins behind. Close!

[ThepOpeth]

I really like this ending.

 

[Distrusted]

I can hear Natalie saying "Joy division" in 8:11.

 

[flemflames]

Fuck you I thought it was quite hilarious, what I said.

Without Mendez, there'd be less bass.

theres a reason for that....thats thats what it is

 

[Heir Apparent]

I noticed that the talking at the end of TLE must be a homage to the Pink Floyd song Money. They both have the talking at the end, and I think I heard someone say "I was really drunk at the time" in TLE which is also said (more audibly) in Money.

 

[beast from the east]

The ending always brings to mind a group of people standing around chatting in a funeral home after a funeral...it's kinda creepy.

 

[Godhead59]

Every time I hear this ending I picture all of them having dinner together :\

Me too! Except, they're ghosts in some Victorian dining room kinda thing.

 

[Nasty-Fire]

That part of the song makes me think about a kind of dinner with freaks in a dark ambiance like Porcelain Heart.

 

[rikdew]

A dinner?
That would make sense with the title of the song
