yr views?

For the sole reason that I am listening to it now, I nominate 'Listen Up' by Wasis.

Look at me at the bleeding edge.

Yeah.

it

is Mogwai Fear Satan. Live. End.


Dalek - Forever Close My Eyes

For the sole reason that I am listening to it now. Mmmhmm.


Super Going

by Boredoms

8:36 seconds in is the greatest moment in the history of music.


Still Life

by Suede. Certainly one of the most brilliantly grandiose, over-egged but rather sumptious puddings ever committed to tape. And a fitting end to a brilliantly grandiose, over-egged pudding of an album.

Sorry, I just got in and I'm really hungry. Pudding. Mmmmm.


i would agree.

so there.


*agrees

ahem


cheney-brakes

Cheney, Cheney, Cheney, Cheney, Cheney
Cheney, Cheney
Stop being such a dick.

genius


has to be

Pink floyd - echoes. It has accurately been described as "coital" in the past.

The runners up...
March into the Sea - Pelican
Hearts alive - Mastodon
ASMZ - ring them bells

This list could be ver', ver' long


there's that one

by sigur ros that ends with all the drum-rolling. can't remember what it's called.


popplágid?

eighth track on () innit


is Ring Them Bells

a Dylan cover?


EPIC

FNM


British Sea Power

"Lately".

ooh and East Hastings by GYBE.
Perfect Kiss full 12" by New Order (best live performance video ever incidentally)


i think one of my

fave epic songs is primal by slowdive..also you made me realise by my bloody valentine live


Wrong!

Stockholm Syndrome by Muse is the epicest song ever. Fact. My stereo quivers everytime i mention its name...


'3 Days' by Jane's Addiction

'1% of 1' by Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks
'It's all gonna break' by Broken Social Scene
'Teenage Riot' by Sonic Youth


...

Shade and the Black Hat by Jeremy Enigk. The big bombastic orchestral bit at the end is so epic I almost shit myself every time it kicks in.


"The Amorous Humprhey Plugg" by Scott Walker

but "Still Life" by Suede was a good call too.


...

A Will Remains In The Ashes - Envy

A 12 minute pisstake of epicosity.


Gamelan by GY!BE

or 'A Flame Beyond The Cold Mountain' by Mono


Dopesmoker by Sleep. It's a fucking saga.


Fantomas - "Delirium Cordia"

74 minutes. One track. You do the math(s). ;)


jesus a lot of this indie 'epicness'

is nothing compared to the following:

My Death - Scott Walker
Party Fears Two - Associates
Eloise - Barry Ryan
Its Over - Roy Orbison

And that's just to start


Prole....

Party Fears Two is indeed a great track...haven't heard that for ages.


Divine Comedy...

...or Mr Hannon to be more accurate did a nice cover of that on their latest LP. Not bad...


Really?....

I wouldn't mind hearing that.


Lee Hazelwood - I Move Around

Nancy & Lee - Some Velvet Morning


Drop - Red house Painters

The Mercy Seat - Nick Cave (that was almost Nice Cave. typo-licious)
Marquee Moon - Television
The Kiss - The Cure

Teenage riot = Good choice


Town Without Pity

Gene Pitney

Another Tear Falls - Walker Brothers
Next - Jacques Brel (his version)
Running Scared - Roy Oribson


Hotel California

Live acoustic version. Touch me.


>

I agree with a lot of the above but I have to give a shout to

"Avenue" - Saint Etienne


Quickspace

precious little mountain


2+3=v65

df


Carmina Burana

the famous bit


....

i'm with guywithnousername and his call of Scott Walker's 'The Amorous Humprhey Plugg'.
VERY POSSIBLY the actual honest to goodness greatest song ever written and a masterclass in epic awesomeness.


I'd say summat by

Buried Inside. Their album is on average about as epic as an exploding planet. Big. Yess.


Oh but their earlier stuff

is IMHO better, but not as epic


hm.

interpol - specialist


Decemberists

The Island, Come and See, The Landlord's Daughter, You'll Not Feel The Drown


Drowning*

Grr


The Landlord's Daughter

As in the song from The Wicker Man?


Await rescue - 65daysofstatic

Sounds like trying to escape the blast created by the universe EXPLODING.


Stainless Steel - iLT

Seventh Son of a Seventh Son - Iron Maiden
Master of Puppets - Metallica
I Want to Know What Love Is - Foreigner


Silverfuck - Pumpkins

It's gotta be.

23

By Jimmy Eat World


...

JEW lover


I'm not ashamed of it

And on a completely unrelated note, I'm off to eat some bagels and pastrami before going to see my mother. Oy vey, does she make me feel like a putz.


Converge

.,.

The first song what is off Frances The Mute, like


Cygnus...Vismund Cygnus is cool...

...but I raise you L'Via L'Viaquez. 12 minutes 21 seconds. Half of it is awesome guitar wankery.

Awesome.

Circle Takes The Square ~ Non-Objective Portrait of Karma

Close thread.

off the last Earth record


'Vatican Broadside' by Half Man Half Biscuit

Silverfuck (live)

by the smashing pumpkins. oh yes.

Oh Comely by Neutral Milk Hotel..maybe? not really.

EYE OF THE TIGER!


I

nearly passed out when they played that at Wembley - 25 minutes for one song is pushing it a little. Especially as I'd already seen them the day before.


the correct answer is

Jane Doe


interpol - specialist

echo and the bunnymen - killing moon
