01.06.20 | Quite a varied list by genre in hindsight, lol. Recommendations are definitely welcome. |

01.06.20 | Have this on my mind from looking at a couple things today: Evans Blue's "Beg" outro chorus is huge and cathartic. |
dedex
01.06.20 | Nice.
I def agree with 2, 7, 8, 10 (cool to see it mentioned !), 11, 13, but I can't stand Too Long and it always disappoint me the record doesn't finish with Face to Face
My favourite remains the SATH's closing pairs Dim/Dark City, Dead Man |
alamo
01.06.20 | you mean outrostanding |
Ray91
01.06.20 | 5 years by Misery Signals is missing |
9Hammer
01.06.20 | Fixed up the list accordingly. I suppose singular songs that have great outros are fine as well. |

01.06.20 | I have somewhat mixed feelings on 2 - the sampling there is integrated fantastically and it gets me going whenever I jam it, but the way they lean so heavily on it feels a little...hmm, convenient (wrong word perhaps) precisely *because* it's the album (and career!) closer. Great song, anyway
Would have gone with Chipped Zoo on the Wall, Wastes in the Sky................ for MxBx and Cosmology for Rolo Tomassi, but cool to see those two there! |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.06.20 | Massive Attack - Antistar
Anathema - Violence
are a couple off the top of my head |
Ray91
01.06.20 | also dissociation by tdep. monumental swansong to an outstanding career and album |
dedex
01.06.20 | ^yes, that's an amazing career outro |
el_newg
01.06.20 | the 3 minute outro to Deliverance by Opeth comes to mind
I like how each cycle is a little different to keep it interesting |
Bedex
01.06.20 | Agalloch's Our Fortress is Burning trilogy + the bonus track has to be up here |
SymbolicInTime
01.06.20 | First I thought of was Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name |
el_newg
01.06.20 | oh mb you meant album outros not song outros
in which case, Botch - Man the Ramparts although there is that hidden track after it so idk |
9Hammer
01.06.20 | Nah, I'm fine including song outros too. If anything, Uneven Structure had 3 ambient pieces after Finale so that's fine to have in this list. (I suppose if the songs have some form of closure to things) |
Bedex
01.06.20 | oy wrong -dex man
don't worry this confuses literally everyone on the site |
Itwasthatwas
01.06.20 | when I think of iconic outros, the ending of bridge of destiny still comes to mind after all these years |
Egarran
01.06.20 | Absu - A Song for Ea
Slayer - Raining Blood
Limbonic Art - Misanthropic Spectrum (Well it was awesome in the 90s, but possibly aged badly) |
9Hammer
01.09.20 | Aw fuck I got the wrong -dex there. My B. Will fix. |
dedex
01.09.20 | that Bedex dude is an usurper |
Bedex
01.09.20 | Wait I thought you were me |
dedex
01.09.20 | i thought i was u |
DinosaurJones
01.09.20 | RHCP - Wet Sand |
SAPoodle
01.09.20 | Can't believe I'm the first one saying it but Converge - Jane Doe
Also:
The Canyon Behind Her by dredg
Earthmover by Have a Nice Life
Good Morning Captain by Slint
God of Wine by Third Eye Blind
Goodbye Sky Harbor by Jimmy Eat World
I Will Lay Down My Bones Among the Rocks and Roots by Wolves in the Throne Room |
dedex
01.09.20 | Converge, HANL and Slint hard [2]
and Portishead - Glory Box is the sexiest outro |
