Show Don't Tell Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I like Alex's guitar "scream" during the intro to Witch Hunt on the Grace Under Pressure tour. That sounds so cool! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pags Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 QUOTE (KenJennings @ Nov 12 2007, 04:29 PM) Has anyone else heard (what I can best describe as) the 'creeky door sound' in the background of The Main Monkey Business? It's very subtle, and i've only noticed it in a certain state of (what I can best describe as) heightened musical awareness. It appears a few times throughout the song. Ken, are you talking about the Guiro that's used? It's been discussed here a few times. Check out 1:40 and again at 4:39 and let me know. http://www.percussionsource.com/advancedSe...earchLocation=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pags Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 QUOTE (OriginalFan @ Nov 12 2007, 09:49 AM) In Anthem there's a really nice melodic guitar counter-melody behind Geddy's voice at 1:01 and again at 1:57 that really contrasts with the roughness of the rest of the song - always catches my ear! It's almost sweet... (Edited because it would be nice to actually include the name of the SONG in the post! sorry, it's early...) Man... I threw on FBN to check out this Anthem reference. I wound up letting the entire album play from beginning to end, and WOW did this take me back big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleasant Faced Man Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 I swear Alex makes his guitar SAY "Overture" at the start of the solo in Overture between 3:05 and 3:09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddysMullet Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 The weeeeOOOOOweeeeOOOOOweeeeeOOOO guitar noise underneath the words "brief eclipse" in the second part of the first verse of "Entre Nous." Wonderful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakeHaste Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Sorry, I just noticed, but not only does GeddysMullet have the coolest display name ever, but she also has quite possibly the most spectacularly awesome picture in her signature.

psionic11 Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 There are so many brilliant Alex moments, his musical "comments" that accent a lyrical phrase here, evoke a visual scene there... Middletown Dreams "like a brilliant shooting star" 1:58 "some bright afternoon" 2:25 The Trees (timber! falling trees) 3:43 La Villa Strangiato (frantically running down hallways from monsters) 5:49 onward Hand Over Fist "you know I've hated that song for so long" 1:41 Available Light "the way I used to be" 1:52 "some half-forgotten stranger, doesn't mean that much to me" 2:00 "or make the colors shine too bright" 2:15 (guitar slide) Cold Fire "you know how complex women are" 0:51 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pags Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 Ok here's one I've been meaning to posts for the longest time, but never bothered to. Armor and Sword - 2:17 Check out the haunting echo they put on Geddy's voice as he ends the line, "A way to take us out of ourselves." It's subtle, but awesome.

Pags Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 WOW here's another Armor and Sword one. I had my headphones on iTunes to get the time for the previous post - and just let the song play through. At the very end of the song - after the final note has been played and it's fading out, LISTEN CLOSELY! It sounds like you can hear Neil's sticks clicking against the drum rim or something. Shortly after that you can hear the snares as though he had touched something when he probably shouldn't have yet. The mics picked it up. Check it out, what do you think it is??

Stormtron Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 That little guitar wail after Geddy says "view" in Xanadu.....I look forward to that every time and go "wahwahwah" right along with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del_Duio Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 The synth drum Neil plays on an offbeat during the beginning of Emotion Detector. I wish they'd do some new songs with a bit more synth drums to them (like for a lot of PoW and GUP) but I know it won't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PassTheAmmunition Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 The verse in 'Prime Mover' where Ged says alter our preception ... lenses polarize and the sound is split into left and right channels on 'polarize' Always great cranked up on the Bose headphones.

MakeHaste Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I'm sure someone mentioned this already (maybe even me!), but at the end of Red Lenses when Ged "scats" with the bassline he is playing. One of my alltime favorite songs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
