Lightning Bolt: the official album thread

And I love Low Light. One of the most nuanced, elegant things on Yield. Jack does a great job in it.

it's just an extended version that jack initially brought in to the band before they filed it down into filler form.

It's not an extended version, it's a different track altogether. Red Dot is not contained anywhere within the mp3 of Small Mosquito that dime posted. It's just another track with steel drums and chanting.

Team Platy.

Also, there is a snippet of this in SVT. From memory, I believe it is around the part, or before, when jack is talking about "the time we're having while playing the song..."

[WtOB?]

he even says at the end of that very clip "eddie decided to sing over it a bit". its red dot. the actual red dot part might be before the fade in or might be from another recording with the same 4-track or it might be that pj heard that and were inspired to create red dot in the studio. either way, in essence it is red dot. even jack considers it so.

And it might be BOB's high point with the band. The sound is what makes it.

How is "Eddie decided to sing over it" evidence that it's Red Dot? Ed is singing in that clip (the low voice singing along to the steelpan figure during that ascending part). Nothing Jack says indicates that it's Red Dot, but more importantly, it's a different groove and the steel drum is playing different notes. There is nothing indicating that it's Red Dot other than your imagination, and the simple fact that it features the same instruments.

It was not a double post.

[Jorge]

I tried to edit the post and I quoted it instead. Kind of like a double post.

Totally different things. As different as Red Dot / Small Mosquito.

Impossible. They both had words in it, which means they're the same thing.

yeah, cos they're totally different. seems to me; small mosquito was the red dot demo.

but we all know jorge is smarter than everyone cos he was pampered and thinks he's special so let's just listen to him.

Grow up, Adam.

i just heard an opinion that wasn't jorge's and cracked up.

[Jorge]

You react really badly to being proven wrong, dude. Work on that. Why would you make an argument about a drum song into a personal thing?

[WtOB?]

because i got no place else to go !!

[Jorge]

I believe it.

[harmless]

No one's proven anyone wrong, internet friends. That's the first lesson we could learn here.
