Outros - savin' the best til last

Cousin it · 08-09-2009 2:32pm #1

Just been listening to a lot of techy/proggy stuff lately and realised that a lot of the tracks have some pretty f~ck*n sweet outros that are a perfect end to a track and make you think about putting on repeat just so you can hear it back and say, "was it actually THAT good?" "Yes, YES IT WAS!" Heh heh

If anyone follows what I'm on about link to your favourites.

1. Polymetric ending to "Letter experiment" by Periphery

2. The classic ending to "New Millenium Cyanide Christ" by Meshuggah

3. Fair play to Tool for havin the balls to do a Zep cover. I think they got it right and their own flair they added to the end is a bit of class. Of course people will disagree but I dig it.

4. "Under My Sky" by Hero in Error - cos they're Irish, their drummer is the madres cojones and the outro here is just so tight!

What are yours?

My favourite ever outro:

I know most people would probably go with the Deliverance outro if they were picking one by Opeth, but for me it's got to be Karma:

Pearl Jam have so many fantastic outros I could link to about a dozen; Grievance, Present Tense, Inside Job, Rearviewmirror, etc...
But this has to be my favourite:

The Pumpkins could also do a good one back in the day:

The second half of the tune where it goes all melodic and Brent Hinds from Mastodon makes an appearance

I suppose this falls under DnB/Rock? The outro to The Tempest by Pendulum is absolutely epic...

brendansmith · 08-09-2009 11:00pm

I love the outro to Panteras 'Five minutes alone'.

Dimes riff and Phils layer vocals are sweet as

Patricide · 09-09-2009 12:05am

I think we can call thread over after this outro. Arch Enemys bridge of destiny, the most EPIC outro of all time!!

Start at 5.20 and watch through...

brendansmith · 09-09-2009 12:14am

Nope. Didnt do much for me now tbh.

My favourite Opeth outro

One I have love since young

And the downright weird but makes me wanna listen again and again

Can't link to any videos on youtube atm but I always thought the last two riffs in the song Uroboric Forms by Cynic were absolutely amazing !

The ending to the Testament song As the Seasons Grey is class too.

Perrienial Quest by Death is a sad but brillaint ending to Symbolic.

Ageless Still I Am from the Morbid Angel album Gateways to Annhilation has a great ending solo. Same can be said for Nothing but Fear on the Album Domination.

That's all I can think of at the moment.

Between the buried and me - White Walls.

An amazing outro to wrap up an amazing album

IamMetaldave · 09-09-2009 2:41pm

One of my favourite outros!

starflake · 09-09-2009 3:08pm

Motorhead - Overkill 3 outro's in one

ride-the-spiral · 09-09-2009 8:42pm

Between the Buried and Me - Mordecai, Not as good as their song Selkies but i just listened to this and it reminded me how awesome it is. :pac:

The Haunted - Abysmal, brilliant groove/thrash metal with a great more melodic outro

Amorphis - Black River, ending to a great album so the whole song has sort of an outro feel but i quite like the solo and the end bit.

Mental Mickey · 09-09-2009 9:01pm

Best outro for me is "Outlaw Torn" by Metallica. Listening to it atm, and it kicks ass.

Chaosangel · 10-09-2009 5:33pm

outros....
floods by pantera and domination
davidian by machine head
the wall by sepultura aswell is brilliant
too many to list

edit:soma by smashing pumpkins wins for me.
