>vocalist's voice breaks during emotional song

false endings, no matter what genre

Woo-ooo-ooo vocals a la strawberry jam.

>When the Levee Breaks drum beat sample
I don't even like Led Zeppelin that much, but I love that beat

monstrous growls or screams which turn into emotional singing or vice versa. i.e. yob

Examples of this?

WOOD BLOCKS

6+ minute songs.

This.

This.

>teasing a crecendo

Vocalist goes way off key in a manner they'd never be able to reproduce live.

inaccessible, noisy, or cold albums with a heart rending pop ballad somewhere in the mix

Vocals are mixed low over a wall of noise

>Rock album that ends in a soft track

FUUUCK shit makes me rock hard

yes please

anythin' else like this?

Xiu xiu early stuff?

youtube.com/watch?v=wRLWq8a__6I

I don't want to say it's necessarily inaccessible, but I remember first listening that and thinking it's a pretty nice noise rock album. And then track 9 came on. Cemented my love for it.

Xiu Xiu yup
Cindy Lee is doing stuff like this currently
Ohama's album I Fear What I Might here is all darkwave/synth "pop", and then ends with this straight up piano ballet

the contrast with the rest of the album and just how jarring that shift can be adds so much weight to those moments

Perfect Day - Lou Reed

This.

deadpan vocals over a repetitive baseline

>Shouted vocals buried deep in reverb repeating a cleanly sung line

I hate them.

I dont know the right way to describe it but whatever they did in i am the walrus to make lennon's vocals sound like that is fucking great

I love those

nevermind opened up a whole new world for me

>early 2000's rap
>has references to dogs
>heavy use of horns

>Bollywood sample
>Song still continues for several minutes after vocals finish

These are great too

>Male and female vocalist harmonising

>sax solo

>song with a female vocalist
>male vocalist comes in on the seccond verse

check my four

>drum machine combined with acoustic drums
>distorted bass with clean guitar

>noisy free-form orgy into a well crafted song

I'm usually totally against fadeouts, but its such a perfect closing riff that I want it to go on forever

RIP Reimer :'(

>indie guitarist is using a fender offset

fuck yeah
also
>sidechain compression in a non-electronic track

>drums in a post-punk band sounds like it came straight out of a dub record

>gated reverb on snare

>surf guitar in a punk song

>fuzzy, loud rock track
>music stops and guitarist just starts palm muting with a wah pedal

>when male singer uses slight vibrato and his voice rises in pitch during the emotional climax
Example would be any Tool song.

>catchy song having a horn section free jazz style freakout at the end

Is this surf guitar?

OH LAD I WANT THIS

This Heat

Have you heard Pharmakons recent record?

youtu.be/el9ioQGZv1Y?t=2m18s

have you heard X, mr president? some of my favorite vocal harmonies with a bit of punk stank thrown in

This is my fetish

Vocal harmony in rock music.

youtu.be/JyaDTiXH3R4?t=123

I cum every time.

Bulls on Parade?

>Band plays live
>Has an actual orchestra with them

That first riff is a surf riff but after that it is entirely not surf

>song slowly becomes a cacophony of noise, drumming, and various musical instruments

>that feel when you wanna listen to like, 12 different songs at once

ty, thread. You did this to me

All of these, along with hip hop songs in non-simple time sigs.

When an extremely emotional 6+ minute song fades out all its instruments excluding the piano, which you just now realise has been subtly playing the entire time

Literally Turn on the Bright Lights
Perfect fucking mixing

What song is this?

You mean like singing through a shitty bullhorn?

especially on vocal-only (no instrumental accompaniment) pieces

Noisy guitar jams centered around krautrock inspired drum beats. Even very loosely applicable songs like Disorder by Joy Division get me going, that driving beat is key

Pump organ/harmonium

Chaotic sampling

Organic, freely improvised harsh noise

Classically trained female vocalists

German or russian vocals

Chopper-style rap

>vocals layered into a round or saying different things

Hi-hat barks

Google is your friend.

>Metal with ominous, mantra-like vocals

Dopesmoker, most stuff by Yob, Om, the list goes on

probably Long Season
