tommygun
06.12.14 | how did i know high hopes would be here!
gr9 list |
osmark86
06.12.14 | Warren Zevon's last song. it's him saying good-bye since he's about to die basically. |
NorthernSkylark
06.12.14 | The Smiths - I won't Share You (Strangeways, Here We Come) |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | You're an observant one tom I'll give you that thanks though
@os Can't say I've heard of him |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | I Won't Share You is pretty good but not fantastic, they could have done better imo |
osmark86
06.12.14 | Warren Zevon did "Werewolves of London", "Roland the Thompson Gunner", "Excitable Boy" etc etc.. never heard of him ey? |
mryrtmrnfoxxxy
06.12.14 | 14 isnt their last song they posted their last song on tumblr or some shit
but 14 is a damn good song |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | @fox Ah really? dammit. Well its the last song on their last album so imma count it anyway
@os I've heard of Werewolves of London, nothing else though really, should I check him? |
demigod!
06.12.14 | my idea of fun - wingnut dishwashers
at least I think its their last...? |
Artuma
06.12.14 | finally a rowan list with some floyd |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | I know right I've kept you all in suspense too long |
ScuroFantasma
06.12.14 | cool idea for a list |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | Thanks dude felt like I hadn't seen this before |
demigod!
06.12.14 | i dunno what the last Elliott Smith song ever was but it deserves a mention here. |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | A Distorted Reality maybe? |
Artuma
06.12.14 | off minor - practice absence
slint - good morning, captain
discordance axis - drowned
fair to midland - the greener grass
and obviously 1 |
NorthernSkylark
06.12.14 | Nick Drake - From the Morning |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | Only heard Slint off that list Art great song though
@North fuck yeah beautiful tune that |
guitarded_chuck
06.12.14 | it's funny how publically floyd always talked of how pissy they were with one another and how a reunion was impossible, they hadn't worked together or were friendly since wywh, etc
yet they put out the division bell which breaks down their egos and really discusses their longing for the fun creative times of the past
so sad to me |
Rowan5215
06.12.14 | Especially sad that Waters called it a load of nonsense but we can't expect much better from Waters
The fact that Gilmour, Wright and Mason were able to collaborate one last time on friendly terms is satisfying to me though |
SAPoodle
06.12.14 | I thought for a while that All We Love We Leave Behind was going to be the last Converge album and I think the title track would have summed up everything about them perfectly. With that said, they chose to end the album with Predatory Glow so I guess we'll just have to have some more Converge albums then ;) |
mike197
06.12.14 | High Hopes is a great choice for #1, and a good list. I reckon maybe Johnny Cash's cover/video of Hurt fits the category nicely, but since it's not HIS song, who knows. |
Artuma
06.12.14 | "I thought for a while that All We Love We Leave Behind was going to be the last Converge album and I think the title track would have summed up everything about them perfectly."
ugh don't give me thoughts of them quitting please |
Butkuiss
06.12.14 | Fellsilent's Age of Deception is awesome as. |
SAPoodle
06.12.14 | Nah, Artuma, even once Jake has lost his voice he'll just get his new dog to take over vocals and you know it'll still sound awesome. Converge can do no wrong |
DikkoZinner
06.12.14 | "should I check him?"
Most definitely, get the Excitable Boy album asap. |
Trampumpoolee
06.12.14 | of course 'Riders on the storm' by Doors (as last with Jim)
also 'Soldier on' - underrated last Oasis song imo
Kyuss - Fatso forgotso
Pantera - I'll cast a shadow |
scorpiusx
06.12.14 | Nirvana's "All Apologies" or "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" cover both come to mind as great career-ending songs, and I'm not even a Nirvana superfan. |
YoYoMancuso
06.12.14 | (While he was alive) Elliott Smith-Bye. It's like a eulogy.
Carissa's Wierd-(March 19th 1983) It Was Probably Green
Nick Drake-From The Morning |
JokineAugustus
06.12.14 | Botch - Micaragua
Death - A moment of Clarity
American Football - The One With The Wurlitzer
Neutral Milk Hotel - Two Headed Boy Part 2 |
Totengott
06.12.14 | Emperor - Thorns On My Grave |
NorthernSkylark
06.12.14 | Neutral Milk Hotel isn't history? |
JokineAugustus
06.12.14 | Oh. I always thought they were since its been 16 years |
mike197
06.12.14 | Pretty sure Jeff Mangum is done, even though they're touring. Even if they put something out though, it'll pale next to ITAOTS, and there is an air of finality to the album as well. Or to the song Two-Headed Boy pt. 2, that is. |
Judio!
06.12.14 | Awesome list as usual, Rowan.
"Goodbye Sober Day. There is no more perfect summation of the strangest career of all than this hellish beauty."
Fucking yes, never get sick of seeing this song make it into your lists. |
Artuma
06.12.14 | Botch - Micaragua [2]
afghamistam would've been even more perfect tho |
jefflebowski
06.12.14 | i won't share you is incredible man c'mon
surely decades, as the last track on closer has to be on here? |
Mort.
06.12.14 | "The weeping, wailing and gnashing of teeth" - the last song on Johnny Truants last album. one of their best

Kman418
06.12.14 | also 14 yes |
Kman418
06.12.14 | TECHNICALLY big kisses is the last song they put out under the btmi name but like dont destroy yourself is so perfect and most people i know just consider big kisses one of his solo project songs so whatever |

Avagantamos
06.12.14 | isis - threshold of transformation |
ChoccyPhilly
06.12.14 | Something from Pink Moon I guess? Don't think Nick Drake had a single from that, but anything from that album is a fitting sending off |
NorthernSkylark
06.12.14 | From the Morning IS his last song. ever. |
RadioSuicide

Rowan5215
06.13.14 | Hot damn a feature thank you mods
Also I'm not gonna address everyone who's commented today but thanks for sharing guys
Not a fan of Joy Division unfortunately, You Know You're Right is a hard jam, I did think about putting Pristina on here but thought it wasn't QUITE on the same level as the rest, and I'm losing hope for Glassjaw |
tommygun
06.13.14 | hav you heard decades tho |
Rowan5215
06.13.14 | Yes I have heard Decades
I mean I'm sorry I just don't get them, instrumentally they're fine but the vocals drive me up the fucking wall |
avonbarksdale221
06.13.14 | From The Morning [2] |
tommygun
06.13.14 | lol ye curtis kinda sucked |
Rowan5215
06.13.14 | @avon more like From The Morning [10] but yeah
@tom I just absolutely cannot even listen to him |
tommygun
06.13.14 | i mean closer is still one of the ahrdest 5s but fuck me dude |
MrSirLordGentleman
06.13.14 | 1 and 2 are probably the best examples, hell yeah |

manosg
06.13.14 | Agreed. Also 3 (Let it Be) is a perfect way to end a career. |
Rowan5215
06.13.14 | Thanks dudes and agreed hard
McCartney brings it like a motherfucking god on that song |
deathschool
06.13.14 | Dude. Fucking sweet list, Row. |

06.13.14 | been said twice already kerfuffle but yeah agreed |
Alastor
06.13.14 | Windir - Ætti Mørkna
Last song on the last Windir album before Valfar died in a snowstorm. One of his best too.

Joy Division- Decades
Slint- Good Morning, Captain

SaneTBP
06.15.14 | "unwound - who cares
go nihilism"
this. I'd still rather put Below the Salt here, because it's just the epic and climatic ending the album was building up to. Who Cares is more of an aftermath imo |
mxbrady
06.17.14 | Major/Minor was the perfect swan song for Thrice IMO |
CrownOfMagnets
06.17.14 | mars volta- zed and two naughts
at the drive in- non-zero possibility
nirvana- where did you sleep last night
kyuss- spaceship landing
|
Rowan5215
06.17.14 | Spaceship Landing and Non-Zero Possibility are great suggestions thanks dudes |
MonotoneMop
06.17.14 | 1 is definitely 1. Thursday was also a cool mention.
Blur - Battery in Your Leg definitely should be on here. Not quite their last track, but they really ended with their last album, not the singles used to promote other things. The significance of Graham being there for the solo before leaving again is really emotional. |
Emim
06.17.14 | I would consider In Completion the better choice for Underoath seeing how it was part of an album and not a compilation. |
Rowan5215
06.18.14 | Yeah Emim I tossed up between Unsound and In Completion for a while, they're both fucking great tunes. Went for Unsound eventually because it was written, recorded and released afterwards but damn even in title In Completion is the perfect ender |
Snake.
06.21.14 | Hopesfall - Paisley
Alexisonfire - Vex
At the Drive-In - Non-Zero Possibility [2]
The Chariot - Cheek.
Isis - Threshold of Transformation [2]
Oceansize - SuperImposter
Botch - Micaragua
Modest Mouse - Invisible (these guys might as well call it a day it's been 7 years) |
Emim
06.22.14 | OPEN YOUR LUNGS AND FOLLOW ME DOWN |
Rowan5215
06.22.14 | But I never wanted to let you drown WITHOUT ME
WITHOUT ME |
Emim
06.23.14 | Underoath is so damn quotable |
Ricochet
06.23.14 | SUMMER HOLIDAYS AND PUNKROUTINE! |
Rowan5215
06.23.14 | Underoath lyrics are great
Well Spencer's are anyway, not Aaron's |
Emim
06.23.14 | Idk I've always enjoyed both of their styles. Spencer's lyrics are definitely my favorite, but Aaron has some great parts as well.
The interplay between the two of them on Moving For the Sake of Motion is one of my favorites. |
Rowan5215
06.23.14 | I mean I'm just assuming here that they wrote the lyrics for the parts they sing, I think that's right
But I remember reading that Aaron wrote all the lyrics on TOCS and I thought the lyrics on that album were pretty bad, mediocre at best, except maybe Its Dangerous Business
Spencer's are so fucking good though especially on Disambig |
Emim
06.23.14 | I think there is something to be said about the stylistic differences between TOCS and DtGL, and to which audiences those albums were aimed. TOCS was heavily influenced by the super poppy wave of "screamo" hitting the mainstream, and the lyrics reflected that.
and on that note....
DON'T SHAKE, I HATE TO SEE YOU TREMBLE |
Rowan5215
06.23.14 | True but still "She's a maverick she's so smooth/If things go according to plan I'll have her finished by 5AM" is pretty fucking cringey either way, especially when you compare it to any of Spence's lyrics on DTGL or after (Returning Empty Handed for example) |

DatsNotDaMetulz
09.10.16 | Woods of Ypres - Alternate Ending |
Sunnyvale
09.10.16 | Nick Drake's From The Morning has already been mentioned, but it's the definitive example of the stuff on this list. |
Snake.
09.10.16 | "these guys might as well call it a day it's been 7 years"
these guys might as well call it a day because their last album was only okay and they suck ass live |
DatsNotDaMetulz
09.10.16 | FWIW Nirvana's final single should have been Pennyroyal Tea but Kurt died shortly before its planned release date. A few copies of the vinyl escaped in the UK but otherwise they scrapped the single |
DatsNotDaMetulz
09.10.16 | Oh and it charted at #1 on the Billboard charts when it got re-released as a Record Store Day single. So I guess technically speaking it did become their final single. |
