ily |
deathschool
09.22.14 | Kim Deal [2] |
Tunaboy45
09.22.14 | Backing vocals on Otherside. The "aaaaaaah"s in the second chorus are perfect. |
Judio!
09.22.14 | Rowan if you don't apply for contributor I'm gonna quit this site |
Tunaboy45
09.22.14 | Oh and Blackest Eyes.
"It's so erotic when your makeup runs" |
Artuma
09.22.14 | ""It's so erotic when your makeup runs""
one of the worst lines ever and it sounds awful in the song too |
Tunaboy45
09.22.14 | It sounds fucking creepy with the whispered background vocals though. |
laughingman22
09.22.14 | kim deal [3]
DEBASSER!!! (debaser) |
ABjordanMM

"It sounds fucking creepy with the whispered background vocals though."
if you're gonna go there then we need to discuss Triangle by dredg instead
|
mxbrady
09.23.14 | Ahh those backing female vocals on Illuminate are sweeeeet. And anything with Laura in it. And the alk3 Matt/Dan combo. And I'm just going to stop there because there are too many good examples here.
Cool list row |
XingKing
09.23.14 | You need to stop making so many pinned lists. You make the rest of us look bad |
Rowan5215
09.23.14 | Yeah mx I love that thing Matt and Dan do (or used to do... ;_;) when one of them is singing a line and the other comes in an sings the line and then holds the final note for ages
My Little Needle is a great example which is why I put it there, Dan comin in on the I AM SO INEBRIATED and then holding the IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
@Xing nothing makes you look bad bby |
mxbrady
09.23.14 | Man, early Alkine Trio was the best |
Rowan5215
09.23.14 | Good Mourning is one of my all-time faves |
mxbrady
09.23.14 | It sure has some kick ass songs on it. I haven't listened to it in a few years probably, I should go do that |
Rowan5215
09.23.14 | You should definitely, its my favourite of all their discog even though there's not a bad song between it, Goddamnit and Maybe I'll Catch Fire |
mxbrady
09.23.14 | Definitely top 3 alk3 albums. Goddamnit is one of my favorite all time though, love that album |
Rowan5215
09.23.14 | So much energy on Goddamnit! I love it, only thing that bugs me is how little Dan contributes, Good Mourning is my fave cos its the most Dan-heavy |
mxbrady
09.23.14 | Yeah true, and Dan's content on Goddamnit isn't as good as it gets to be. Good Mourning is probably the best balance of the two's quality out of the discog |
Rowan5215
09.23.14 | I seriously love every single song Dan's ever written which is something I can say for very few artists ever. He's just consistently fantastic. but yeah the two on Goddamnit! are some of his weakest more because of weak vocals than anything else |
OZZGabriel
09.23.14 | 16 - You just picked 'Omission' because Josh is on it :)
Since we're at it - the end of 'Another' (Ataxia) - but I'm not really sure if that counts as 'harmonies' |
Rowan5215
09.23.14 | dude do you even understand how much I'm in love with Josh? I don't think you do!
Another is a glorious one yeah |
Chrisjon89

rapideyemovement
09.23.14 | 56 might be my favorite song featuring backing vocals. Oh, and I also like the ones on Seen and Not Seen by Talking Heads. |
