'Crazy Woman Dirty Train' by These Arms Are Snakes - the track just spirals out on control from this point onwards (after a thunderous slow-but-steady build up.)
On the second chorus of "It's The End Of The World..." by REM.
The riff Kurt Ballou plays by himself near the end of "Fault And Fracture" by Converge before it all kicks in again...
When Bjork sounds like she's laughing as she sings the line "You're trying too hard" in Pagan Poetry...
The quiet "how well do you think that you know...'dum-dum' ME!" bit on The Ideal Height by Biffy Clyro.
The xylophone on "No Surprises" by Radiohead...
And the way Steven Malkmus sings "I could really give a fuck..." on Range Life...
I heartily agree on Crazy Woman Dirty Train. That bit is fucking unbelievable. Seriously. Utterly terrifying. Best song of 2006.
Fugazi - Epic Problem (2.22 - 2.55)
Shins - So Says I (hoo-woo-woo!)
Libertines - I Get Along ('fuck 'em')
Radiohead - Where I End & You Begin (where the bass comes back in after dropping out before the 'eat you alive' bit)
where the singer starts singing the next verse a bar too soon, and the drummer does a dodgy drum fill to cover up. And the fact that they kept it in.
And on Mudhoney's Need off Superfuzz Bigmuff where the song comes clattering to a stop in the middle and Mark Arm sighs 'Aaaah' like he's just drunk a cold beverage on a warm day, before the riff creaks back in by itself. Perfectamondo, as they used to say in the 80's.
Gimme The Heat - dEUS: The moment the second chorus starts.
Out Of The Angeles - Amusement Parks On Fire: The first time that bit guitar riff comes in.
Sense of Quickness - Scarce: "When're we gonna get out of this goddamn rain?!"
Tear in Your Hand - Tori Amos: That drum hit before the whole thing kicks back in.
Ratts Of The Capital at the end of the 'loud' section where the guitar makes a noise like Wile E. Coyote skidding as he approaches the edge of a cliff top, trying in vain to stop, before plummeting inevitably to the ground where he lands in a cloud of dust normally followed shortly after by a heavy object.
'standing, in the tall grass, thinking nothing...' in 'cowboy dan'. that entire midsection is just lovely. if i had to pick one bit from it itd probably be the 'everytime you think you're...' bit.
'my mom's god is a woman and my mom she is a witch' - 'lives'
when ryan adams does wonderwall live and he does the violin refrain bit (actually, is it violin? i forget) by singing it. awesome.
'walk awaaaaaaaaaay' - '198d'
'there is only toniiiiiiiight' - ' five, eight and ten'
"'standing, in the tall grass, thinking nothing...' in 'cowboy dan'. that entire midsection is just lovely. if i had to pick one bit from it itd probably be the 'everytime you think you're...' bit."
I agree. "Everytime you think you're talking, you're just moving your mouth."
For me, there's obviously so many 'little bits', but here's three recent ones:
Bushels by Frog Eyes, 6:32 minutes in:
"When am I ever gonna feel the sting of your sun?" sung somewhere between wailing and yodelling. Amazing.
These Are the Days by Lift to Experience, the intro: "These are the days, racing toward us, with blood on their teeth and lips..." followed by a sound of someone sucking their lips, and then it all kicks in.
And finally; Dens by 3hostwomexicansandatinofspanners, the intro: RIFF then "This is gonna be the next one after the fourth album." Cracks me up everytime I hear it, so funny.
1:51 into 'Everyone Says You're So Fragile'
All together now...
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!"
Winner
^ this
just thinking about it cheered me up :)
at 3:31 on 'Kaz Hayashi '01' by Oxes
where the music stops and you hear this sudden sharp intake of breath, then the guitars/drums crash in with such force - wonderful.

Never fails to produce a big fat grin from yours truly.

P.S. We did this already.
15 step

AH, IT'S GOOD AND SHIT.
4:55 into Six by Mansun
Life is a compromise anyway.
The bit in This Cat Is A Landmine
by 65daysofstatic where it stops, and then KICKS in again at 2:30, fucking incredible.
Also, the bit in Pretty Lush by Glassjaw where Daryl goes 'yufynUH', which also happens to be at 2:30!
The Sonic 'Ring Ping'
In 'Heartache of Soccer Moms' by :(
"doo doo dada doo da" in One Out of None by Oceansize

I think you'll find you meant "the entire last minute and a half of One Out Of None by Oceansize".
well, I was focussing on the LITTLE moments
but, otherwise I agree.
*Gasp*
When the 'I'll drive so far away' bit starts in Blue Thunder by Galaxie 500.
Also...
The bit going into the last chorus burst of R.E.M.'s Cuyahoga when the bassline goes up for three notes.

I heartily agree on Crazy Woman Dirty Train. That bit is fucking unbelievable. Seriously. Utterly terrifying. Best song of 2006.
my favouritist
has got to be the pause before the word "again" in Love will Tear us apart... again. It's perfect. Like a sigh or something.
I'll stop being emo now.

I would've said Epic Problem if could've been bothered
1:16 into USA Nails
by Blood Brothers. Where vocals switch from Johnny to Jordan basically mid sentence.
That bit in White Town
'Your Woman',
ding ding ding ding dink
The bit in the Kingsmens version of Louie Louie
where the singer starts singing the next verse a bar too soon, and the drummer does a dodgy drum fill to cover up. And the fact that they kept it in.
And on Mudhoney's Need off Superfuzz Bigmuff where the song comes clattering to a stop in the middle and Mark Arm sighs 'Aaaah' like he's just drunk a cold beverage on a warm day, before the riff creaks back in by itself. Perfectamondo, as they used to say in the 80's.
That single bass note
before the chorus kicks in again for the last time in Insomniac by Echobelly.
Yes. That one.
when Bjork giggles

"Call me up baby and I'll answer your call, call me up and remember I'm no use to you at aaaalll..." *CREAK*
xmas steps
the ep+6 version.
towards the end, so so quiet and beautiful, then something swoops in and scares the shit out of everyone. genius.

Coyote skidding as he approaches the edge of a cliff top, trying in vain to stop, before plummeting inevitably to the ground where he lands in a cloud of dust normally followed shortly after by a heavy object.
Magic.
The meteorite is the source of the light,
And the meteor's just what we see;
And the meteoroid is a stone that's devoid of the fire that propelled it to thee.
The middle part of 'Bad Penny' by Big Black
"I think I fucked your girlfriend once... maybe twice, I don't remember
Then I fucked all your friends' girlfriends -- now they hate you"
Good 'ol Albini always the barer of good news
the bass note before it all kicks off
in 'it was there that i saw you'.
'standing, in the tall grass, thinking nothing...' in 'cowboy dan'. that entire midsection is just lovely. if i had to pick one bit from it itd probably be the 'everytime you think you're...' bit.
'my mom's god is a woman and my mom she is a witch' - 'lives'
when ryan adams does wonderwall live and he does the violin refrain bit (actually, is it violin? i forget) by singing it. awesome.
