Brand New - Science Fiction (August 17, 2017) [ARCHIVED] Album • Page 560

Also this is awesome

 

Red Medicine is a great fucking record

 

Absolutely!!! I'm listening to The Argument. Easily my favorite Fugazi album / most listened to

 

I love SOAD. I mean the guitar work in this song, especially starting around 2:00, is just like . . . yeah.

 

just move to canada already if you don't like SOAD.

 

Fugazi f&@$ing rules! I'll fight anyone who suggests otherwise.

 

I'd GLADLY move to Canada! They know what's up up there

 

Hahahahaha @fenway89 your last two posts

Long live Fugazi and Canada

 

I'm just saying that people can like both SOAD and Glassjaw, and Fugazi for that matter. nothing wrong with any of those bands. all playing different styles of music and each have their merits.

 

it's not like the guy said "this song sounds like the fray" or something else objectively shitty. maybe he likes SOAD and that reminded him of it.

 

I don't know man, I really think you just have to pick one and hate the others



I'm kidding. Anyway. It's okay you like SOAD, that's fine, I just don't. Just messing.

 

The whole SOAD thing was a joke please don't let this become an actual conversation I already ruined this thread once with emo

 

sorry, we're stuck talking about soad until blake comes back.

 

On the off chance a miracle happens and he doesn't come back can we just change the subject now

 

So last night I tried writing out the song structure of Same Logic/Teeth. Things got weird fast...

i4-v8-I4-V4x3 - c4 c4/- I24- -B4- pb1 -xV4/ - V28 - c24 c24/- I4- B4 - pb4 - Pb14 - PB4- O8...

 

@teebs41 translation pls

 

I'm pretty sure that's the chemical formula for meth . . .

 

Seems like he believes a part of a song, like the chorus, should be represented by a chord progression rather than, you know, the whole chorus.

 

@vidiviciveni i need to poop but my only option is a porta-potty... What would you do?

 

This post gained me 2 trophies:

"The Old Fashioned" and "Heisenberg"

 

seems like verse, chorus, intro, outro, bridge, post-bridge, chorus, with respective measure amounts

 

Also, @vidiviciveni I meant to tell you that if you're pooping rabbit pellets, that's probably not good. Your poops should, ideally, come out in one, long, smooth, but not too soft, "deposit". A break here and there is ok, it most likely means you're not in the right position (try a squatty potty!) but in a perfect world it would flow freely.

 

but i could be wrong. i definitely don't know why the /'s and -'s are of importance

 

Damn, we started on the 14th (Florida).

 

Made it up as I went, looking for any way to indicate changes.

Case Sensitivity indicates a prominent drum backing. So "i4" means intro but without drums, and the last number means 4 measures. I24 later on is the same intro, but with drums, and the 2 is there for the vocals. Basically if there's a 2 behind a C or V then the part evolved in some significant way.

The x for V4x3 is a drop out measure, meaning the drums go out for a bit.

The / means a crescendo or noteworthy transition

Originally I had V27Z for the low vocal part, the Z indicating a standout WTF moment haha

Everything else is pretty straightforward: I - intro V - verse C - chorus - B bridge - PB - post bridge - O- outro.

Might seem a bit obsessive, but really I'm just trying to improve my own songs by analyzing structures like this. This is one of the craziest songs I've done.

Edit: the x before the V (or whatever) means the vocal is gone but the same instrumental energy is there.
