>>65899551

>>65899643
>in which track
Ascension Day
>>65899551
Nice meme.
In all seriousness though, why did they do it?
>>65900276
Who? Swans or Talk Talk?
>>65900289
Talk Talk
thought i had a fucked download the first time i listened to this
what am i listening to? why does it do that
They ran out of tape
>>65900276
>>65900590
C'mon guys you're acting like no one's done the "building chaos into a sudden cut off" before. This one is just extremely abrupt. It's very effective too, the first couple times I listened to LS the build at the end of Ascension Day made me really nervous.
>>65900644
i was kind of talking about the weird skip, not the abrupt change in tracks
>>65900644
There's a difference between ending suddenly and literally cutting the tape right in the middle of a line.
>>65900664
Is the weird skip not part of the abrupt change in tracks?
>>65899551
>5:09
Worst Talk Talk track ever?
>>65900668
yeah it's the logical conclusion to it
>>65900668
Both are ending suddenly, though.
>>65900684
it just sounds shitty, i don't get it. i've heard bands do sudden, clean shifts like that and it sounds better
I think the skipping happened because they were obviously jamming out towards the end of the track and maybe they thought it was best to cut it off short because the rest of the imrpov section didn't sound so good for them
>>65900695
>>65900699
Touche
>>65899551
I like this album but could never get into Taphead
>>65900755
>they were obviously jamming out towards the end of the track
Literally the entire album is improvisation, m8.
>>65900795
It's the least great track, probably fueled by being squeezed in between After the Flood and New Grass, anything is shit beside those.
>>65900688
Everyone knows Strike Up the Band is objectively their worst.
It's fucking embarrassing in comparison to Spirit and Laughing.

Well they did a damn good job of making the first half of a track seem like a well thought out and written compostion of that really is true.
On second thought >>65900622 sounds like it could be true
>>65900755
>>65900590
>>65900276
basically what >>65900622 said, during the recording sessions they at first didn't notice the tape had run out during the outro jam, then decided to keep the take because muh adventurous song structures
>>65900910
You got a source on that?
>>65900910
This is just a rumor with no basis. It's not even hard to look up basically everything we know about the recordings as Mark didn't really do a shitton of interviews.
>>65900923
i remember i read it in an interview with Mark Hollis somewhere, i'm trying to find it right now. it was an interesting read
>>65900871
I actually enjoyed the first 45 seconds of it, 5:09 is still worse
>>65900688
What's wrong with it?
>>65900960
It's a false rumor that floats around in Talk Talk threads together with that they got a power shortage during that part.
Really, the very nature of how the album was put together completely negates any form of "track was cut off" as it's all just a composite of small segments.
Is this album /mu/core?
>>65901018
>>65900951
>>65900923
i honestly remember reading something of the sort in an interview, but all I could find was an audio interview where he states he purposely cut the tape off. oh well, i guess my memory's failing me
