From the Archive - A Month In Records: April 2008
The Smiths - Some Girls Are Bigger Than Others
Fades in and out at the beginning.
That wins.
also
Hand in Glove
^ possibly my favourite smiths song
cap'n jazz
little league.
the fall - two librans
is it really wrong that i didnt even notice the tp 3 faded in til just now and now i can hear it and ... it seems quite clever
"...fades in."
One of my favourite examples is Mogwai's 'Hunted By A Freak'...
even better
2 Rights Make 1 Wrong.
Hunted by a Freak doesn't fade in
It just starts really quietly...
oh man!
Radiohead - Black Star!
....
joy division - insight
Yeah, I wish it didn't, though
I hate fade-ins and fade-outs...
yes
whenever i listen to it i think you could make it go on forever by joining up the end with the start.
.
ooh. 'never stops never rests never sleeps' by misty's keeps on fading in and out
Yes it does
they even crouch down during the quiet bits when they play it live :D
.
ALL bands that have songs that fade in should crouch down and then gradually stand up as it starts.
it should be the law
and the other way round for fade outs
Or have platforms
that rise and fall with the volume of the music, yarr.
.
one platform for the whole band or individual ones? it would be like kiss or something
Individual ones.
Although i suppose if everyone starts at the same time really loud they'll be shot into the ceiling of the venue...
at least
it would make a good show.
bands short on budget could just have roadies/mates picking them up instead
Hehe yeah
or have car jacks and have the roadies pump them up. So to speak.
There's always
Turning American by The Wildhearts. And quite a few of their songs, come to that.
<
The Grid - Golden Dawn
Carter USM - The Impossible Dream
Couple of crackers there.
Fuk Yeh - The Vines
what did you reckon of that new vines album
wrighty seeing as you like em?
I love it.
It sounds like Sanic Yoth.
Wrong one sorry, its Atmos I'm on about.
I think its good. Its not amazing, like Highly Evolved, but its got some crackers on it.
Vision Valley, Going Gone... some of the best songs he's written.
You?
And Atmos doesn't sound like Sonic Youth...
but it does fade in.
Futuretarded sounds like SY!!!
Mmmmm,
crackers. Got any cheese for them?
LOL!
Yeah. Fuck the World is slightly cheesy.
Yo La Tengo - Deeper Into Movies
Mogwai - Hunted By A Freak
Copycat.
It doesn't fade in, FFS! :D
it just starts quietly.
Same difference.
NO NO NO!
Quite different.
Building up quietly is nothing like starting a song full blast then going back and dialing it up slowly to maximum.
The first is great.
The second means someone cocked up at the beginning and no one could be arsed to go back and fix it.
OR
the second means that the studio recording was too long and so the song gets edited either side, which can be quite good. Like the Peel session of 'New Face In Hell'...
yes!
and By Starlight by the Smashing Pumpkins.
"and By Starlight by the Smashing Pumpkins."
same album - Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans
BEST SONG EVER
Deeper Into Movies that is.
near enough
:)
ba ba ba
belle and sebastian's Sleep the Clock Around is one of my all time favourite songs and that fades in :)
that son off vu's loaded
about a train comin round the bend. Possibly called "Train comin round the bend?"
Talking Heads
Cities. One of my favourite ever tunes.
The Dandy Warhols are good at this
see Godless and the first song on Come Down (might be called Be In, I can't remember)
It fades in halfway through if that counts
but Happy Man by Sparklehorse is the best, and it's also the best song that's ever used the technique, in my considered opinion.
Metallica....
"Hit The Lights"
tool
basically every song theyve ever released. but especially schism.
ooh
Teenage Fanclub - Star Sign
Jane's Addiction - Obvious
Obviously.
the Hatful of Hollow version
of Hand in Glove's fade in is classic, so haunting
ladies and gentlemen we are floating in space.
WINNER.
three days too, if im not wrong
and the piece de la resistance:
Television Eyes by Trans Am.
To say that song is good is a criticism.
The Wedding Present
Spangle.
New Order
Temptation
Only living boy in new york
simon and garfunkel. (i think anyway)
