Re: The album running-commentary and general listening discussion thread. Part 2!

[The Call of the Wendigo]

One of the lesser songs on the album but still better than 99% of people could do.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Also, the most mid 1990s thing on the album.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

"Aw shut up and learn from him."

[The Call of the Wendigo]

"Jesus Christ came down from the aerial."

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Actually, listening to it again, after such a long gap, it's way better than I remember.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

It's got far more urgency than I remembered.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

That was awesome.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Track 7 - What Else You Wanna Know.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Dreamy guitar intro.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

"Tell your mama you don't need it. You don't need it anymore and if she tries to feed you, spit it out on the floor."

[The Call of the Wendigo]

This has some of my favourite lyrics on the album.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

It's gone quiet again.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

"And we all wake up together, these pictures shining in our heads. Sometimes I leave the house. Sometimes I stay in bed."

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Epic guitar ending.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Track 8 - I'm Awake.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Another of my faves. With its constant moving from major to minor and back again, it has a sensation of endless restlessness.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

It also has her best guitar solo, which really does capture the feeling of approaching death.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Back to the verse.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

"Hold back outside the door. Don't touch me anymore."

[The Call of the Wendigo]

"And when you wake, I'm awake."
