ITT: albums with one glaring flaw
>>65767523
The production?
>>65767523
what's the flaw
>>65769227
The Error on frankie M.
>>65767523
Rape?
I would have never even noticed it if you faggots didn't bring it up. Fuck all of you.
STOP
STTTTOOOOPP
It is obviously intentional!!
REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>65769367
>/mu/ doesn't know what a cymbal mute is
I'm convinced 95% of the people on here have never played an instrument
The mixing? There's very little low-end.
>>65769309
Jesus wept, dude, get over it already. Yes, one tiny drum glitch in a two hour album...
What's this drum glitch we're even talking about?
>>65767523
I agree, it's too long
>>65769420
It's just one guy shitposting
>>65769309
Where is it? I can't hear it
>>65769931
I've listened to the album 6 times and so far I can't hear it either. Nobody seems to be able to point out the exact second it happens, so I'm thinking this is some kind of new meme or troll.
>>65769931
>>65769848
15:36 on Frankie M
>>65769955
>>65769931
It's around 15:36 of Frankie M
It's not a cymbal choke like some idiots on here might imply.
>>65769436
Why are people saying this? The mixing recording, engineering and mastering was done by the same group of people gira used for The Seer? The mixing sounds different on this album because there is a lot more going on. You can actually hear all of the instruments on this album, they don't get completely drowned out by the drums and bass tracks like parts of The Seer and TBK.
>>65769965
>>65769973
it's clearly cut off in the production, but what is the problem? Why is it necessarily a flaw? The song is shifting to a new section at that point. I think it makes sense.
>>65769973
How long have you been playing drums?
>>65769973
Just heard it, it does sound like a very fast mute as nothing else in the mix is at fault during that part.
>>65767523
Is it a glaring flaw or a glowing flaw?
>>65770075
not him, but I have played drums for almost 10 years. You can't mute a cymbal that quickly. Especially a crash hit that hard. The cymbal continues to resonate even after you clamp upon it.
It was supposed to be like that. Check The Gate's version, around 16:31, it's just done quicker in the album.
Reminder that Swans record the long songs 'live'.
intellectualism
>>65770174
Finally some closure on this issue. Can you upload the gate version to youtube?
So I can't find a version that isn't live.
Link?

>not him, but I have played drums for almost 10 years. You can't mute a cymbal that quickly
You must not be a very good drummer then. I've worked with several; drummers who could.
>>65770139
Hi Rebbit. You should swallow a razor blade before you climb into bed tonight. Thanks.
>>65770232
It doesn't even sound like a natural choke though. It sounds like something was just cut out that was initially there.

>>65770222
Sorry but I can't, my internet speed is too slow and I'm posting from my phone because my ISP is banned. This is my last post and I hope you can find the live version, my dear friend.
>>65770222
Won't upload the whole track but I wouldn't mind throwing a clip of that transition online for you.
>>65770277
>some people who listen to a very popular band are edgelords therefore all of them are
please don't
>>65770277
am i supposed to be surprised that they're all edgelords
>>65770407
Not all.
Just 92% of them
>>65770420
I'd argue that 92% of Swans fans are tolerable and a good 8% are willing to embarrass themselves with fucking horrible puns for the sake of upvotes.
>>65770489
>8% are willing to embarrass themselves with fucking horrible puns for the sake of upvotes
not disagreeing but that's seriously the way that the shitty portion of any niche's fanbase is in the present day, fucking normies
you already know

(it's the ending of starchild)
It's a choke. The whole point of a choke in modern rock/jazz/funk is to mute or outright halt any lingering sounds when transitioning from one section of a song to another. In the instance of Frankie M, this is where it happens: when transitioning from one section to another.
>>65770489
Hey, I didn't say I was a swans fan anyways, I just came here to figure out this one misplaced piece of sound that ruined the entire album for OP cause he's sensitive, and happened to make a pun from it.
>>65770375
That would be great anon, I'm sure it's a choke, just want confirmation to shut up people going on about it.
>>65770547
It fucking does not sound like a choke.
>>65770489
>I'd argue that 92% of Swans fans are tolerable
Based on this board and the ones I've seen IRL, not really.
>willing to embarrass themselves with fucking horrible puns for the sake of upvotes.
Looks like you are the horrible percentile

>>65769998
It's just a bit painful to listen to at some points. Especially the vocals; they're so sharp and hard in the mix that they can be a bit ear-piercing at times, and not in a good way.
>>65770251
That was a perfectly appropriate and respectable way to respond to a minor post. :^)
literally the least important thing I could possibly imagine
>>65770592
It also does not sound like an error
>>65770655
I thought the mix on this was the best of the new swans albums, you can pick out and hear almost every instrument, the balance is great. On The Seer and TBK, a lot of the instrumentation gets drowned out in parts by the heavy bass and drum tracks.
>>65770642
So you're either b8ing or you seldom get out much. Either way, wew.
Also zero puns were made. Kindly fuck off.
>>65770655
I thought so too. :^}
>>65770708
Yes. It does.
>>65770805
Why?
>>65770781
>fuck off.
Reminder that Swansfans actually say things like this.
>>65770805
It was mastered by the same guy (Doug Henderson) Who mastered The Seer. It's not an error, it's a quick choke, it sounds like an "error" because he mutes it at the perfect time and it doesn't reverberate or linger.
>>65770953
Reminder that people insist that you fuck off? Are you trying to start a new meme or copypasta here? Please mosey back over to Imgur as soon as humanly possible.
>>65770995
Nice argument.
Are you a cutter?
Here's the transition from The Gate (Live) version of Frankie M. If it's there it's infinitely smoother. I'll let you guys be the judge.

Nice rebuttal.
Are you an autist?
>>65771027
can somebody post this and the studio version to clyp.it or something
I'm waiting for my LP to arrive before listening to TGM
>>65771050
>>65771019
Fuck you both.

>>65771050
>Nice rebuttal.
Were you excepting one? What are you looking for?
>Are you an autist?
Nope. Answer my question please.
I bet you guys didn't even know there's a drum error in Kid A on the song Morning Bell
>>65771027
Yeah after hearing that, it's a mixing fuck up. Ahh well.
>>65771138
Where?
>>65771095
Why would I be "a cutter"? I'm looking for the logic behind why you'd try so hard in such an insignificant 4chan thread.
>>65771337
>Why would I be "a cutter"?
Oh aren't you a Swansfan, or just a passerby in the thread?
Is that a yes or a no?
>I'm looking for the logic behind why you'd try so hard
Oh I assure you this is very easy.
>>65771260
2:46 on my version
>>65771138
The error is that shitass version of Morning Bell that they threw into Amnesiac
![5cb0f110[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/wAwobru.jpg "5cb0f110[1].jpg")
the drums are desynched from the rest of the instruments multiple times through the album

>Swansfan
You keep typing this and all I can picture is an obese memelord laying on his side, huffing and puffing on some embers in an attempt to start a new joke ablaze. I don't know what your deal is but it's fascinating and I've honestly never seen anything quite like it from either side of the Swans spectrum.
And I have absolutely no doubt that shit-posting on a Saturday night is as mindless and second-nature for you as you're suggesting it is. Didn't mean to doubt your mad 4chan skillz friendo. :)
>>65771447
That's just a delayed snare hit. It's not an error.
>>65771542
>You keep typing this and all I can picture is an obese memelord laying on his side, huffing and puffing on some embers in an attempt to start a new joke ablaze
I've never met a Swansfan like that. it's possible they exist though
Didn't answer my question though. that's interesting.
>>65771530
When?
>>65771585
I guess it is "glitch" music after all, so it's an "intentional error" just like people are arguing this is.
>>65771472
Said it's in Mourning Bell of Amnesiac. I'll have to check it out
>>65771689
>It's a glitch so i'm still right and it was intentional.
fuck you
>>65771689
>so it's an "intentional error"
If it's intentional, it's not an error at all is it?
>>65770544
if they just kept the first two minutes of moonchild the record would be so perfect. but then it devolves into literal wank for 12 minutes
>>65769367
Do people actually enjoy posting things like this?
>>65770544
This.
Moonchild would the so much better if they kept the first 2 minutes, got rid of all the instrumental shit after, then put the last 30 seconds to lead into TCOTCK.
>>65769420
it's not a fucking cymbal mute you idiot. it's done in the production. I would say it's intentional, but it's not a cymbal mute. You clearly have not played drums, or else you would know that the timbre becomes darker when you mute a cymbal. The cymbal cuts out way too quickly, and the timbre does not change. It isn't a cymbal mute.
go be a retard somewhere else, bud. /mu/ won't miss you.
