my god, if you can dispute this please do- i think it's the best 20 seconds of metal ever recorded ever forever.

I have to say that I am in agreeance, if that is a word.

I asked them once if they were thinking of Slayer when they wrote it and Buzzo said, "yea, it's total Slayer"

I will have to add that the drum fills in "Behind The Crooked Cross" are just extremely killer.. so freaking effortless.. I know REIGN IN BLOOD gets all the credit, but musically, I think SOUTH OF HEAVEN is the best Slayer album. Metallica always seemed like they were working so hard, SIH is just.. so easy, but yet insanely tight at the same time.

just checked... the part is at 3:20 from the version on the ol' ipod.

Ben Adrian

Oh good one, I love that part...

Another one.. on the Husker Du live album THE LIVING END.. the version of "Celebrated Summer" .. Bob totally screams "Do you remember, when the first snowfall fell?!?..." oh man.. TOTAL chills..

at the beginning of "live wire" by ac/dc bon scott's voice sounds a little hoarse.

Elliott Smith - the intro and the quick vibrato fills between the vocals in Everything Reminds Me Of Her

Sleep - The Dragonaut @ 3:08

ditto on Monkey Trick

Rid Of Me gives me the chills from beginning to end...

-The Drums in Slow Nerve Action ~ Flaming Lips
-The end solo in Why do you Have to put a Date on Everything? ~ Superchunk
-The specific lyrics "It's so Hard to be a Saint in the City"
-When the tympani sounds in What Else is New? ~ Dinosaur jr
-4:36 into The Bad Arts ~ Destroyer
- Orsen Wells' narration in Manowar's Dark Avenger
"Let ye not pass Abaddon"
-"Elvis needs boats, Elvis needs boats, Elvis Elvis Elvis Elvis Elvis Elvis Elvis needs boats!"
-The barely audible "Holy Shit" at the end of Oh Comely by Neutral Milk Hotel
-The transition from Travellin' man to Beautiful Loser on Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band's Live Bullet
-"Hey, there's a horseshoe on my door, big deal." The opening line of "Star Sign" by Teenage fanclub, also the finest song ever written.
-the drum intro to "My Boyfriend's in Killdozer" by Young Fresh Fellows
-the chaos at the end of "toast" by Archers of Loaf
-When eric screams "Audiowhore!" during Audiowhore ~ Archers of Loaf once again
-all the guitar on "Kracked" ~ Dinosaur Jr

That's enough for now

The middle of #14 on Come Pick Me Up - Superchunk rocking at their peak.

Do you mean the final track "You can Always Count on me (in the worst way)"?

I could pinpoint a thousand or so special Superchunk moments personally.

did i already say that part in "maggotbrain," maybe 2/3 of the way through when you hear, "goooo, maggotbrain, gooooo maggotbrain."

The closing part on This Heat's "A New Kind Of Water" is my favorite part in a song.

-When the cymbals come crashing in during the opening of "Nub"

-Once the guitar kicks in on "Facet Squared" after that great beeping build up

-"Is This Music" by Teenage Fanclub. The whole riff

-The solo on REM's "Flowers Of Guatemala." It's so simple but damn, it does something to me.

-Agreed with the drums on "Schizophrenia" when Shelley is just beating the hell out of them
