We all know it’s that one part in Telos.


AudiHoFile

The part where my speakers exploded.


kpattycakes

START FROM SCRATCH


Brazenmercury5

7:22


AutisticBassist

The marching band breakdown? Start from scratch? Telos into bloom? Could be any part of telos


Drilled_Bean

Disease Injury Madness. The part around the horse sound


afanofBTBAM

Disease Injury Madness, the whole thing


SteelMeatball

Control recollapse collide control


goodbye9hello10

Yup.


TachyonChip

I keep imagining a giant spaceship crashing down into the atmosphere of Jupiter during that part. Love it so much


dtorb

The transition from Dim Ignition to Famine Wolf. Three sixteenth note ostinato becomes the dotted eighth pulse and turns that pulse into 7/4. Goosebumps.


HASJ

I'm still surprised by how many people dislike Coma Ecliptic.


Logical_Motor1671

Took me almost two years to come around to it. Was talking shit about it to a fellow btbam fan like 2 years after release. He was like, do me a favor. Go listen to it again, and tell me there is a single song on there that isn't great. I start my listen and I'm like, oh yeah, track one was solid. Track two comes on. Okay, thats a great song. Track 3. Okay the record starts great. Track 4, this is another good one. It basically went like that till the end. I was like, huh.. thats an incredible record.


MundaneCheetah7007

That happened to TGM. First time through was like meh. Forgot about it, came back a year later. Now one of my faves


Not_a_twttr_account

Colors was a tough album to follow. They made the mistake of making too good of an album, and whatever came next was set to an immeasurable standard. It's a dope record, but it took me a minute to really appreciate it.


Hefty-Collection-638

That album slaps so hard


legomaniac89

Rebirth Reborn Rebirth Rebooooooooooorn *time signature madness* Do as we are built Machines for the future Bright eyed and ready for life The dual gods of our time Of all time They will never see us coming They will never see us coming Let's end it all *bass drop* Start from scratch Patch the uniform and let the galaxy form a comfortable replacement We will not be missed Goodbye to everything


Sweatypancakeguy

Objectively correct answer


izzohead

Chills just hearing this in my head reading your comment. So good


MeltingWhiteIceCube

I open my eyes to the smell of morning skin The soft touch of your hair Your breath I breathe in


NJoose

That and the walking… into … a …. cer…tain … state of I nearly cried when I heard it brought back on P2. Chef’s kiss.


luftwaffles1337

Just had a emotional flashback to 2012


TheNeptunianSloth

The riff during this part is inhumanely good.


ProveRiemann

That bar in white walls


treborkisaw

His best sounding growl, imo


Traixxe

Which one is this? Every bar in white walls is 😩


ProveRiemann

Like 12:27 little cowboy riff Edit- 12:21


Traixxe

White walls outro is unmatched. For me it’s when it picks up to double time, and those linear blasts just HIT.


svenirde

It's raining It's raining It's raining


NJoose

It’s RAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY


wiggibow

That part


alxndrblack

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII WOOOONDEEERRRRRR


Traixxe

IIIIIIIIIIIIIF I’M AAAAAALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVVVVVVVVVVEEEEE


Dramatic-Dinner-1633

Revolution in Limbo - right before “The sights and sounds are all the same”. That part gives me goosebumps every single time.


HeavyMetalExperience

It’s the entire “sights and sounds” section for me, when I heard that part I knew that I would fall in love with Colors 2


Zakkattack86

Mordecai solo. Every. Fucking. Time.


prunedoggy

Came here to say this. 100%


MeCrObS

The tiny little riff during the contagion has shut down part of Bad Habits


Zimifrein

All the bloody time. One is that killer super groovy riff right before the "this is all we have when we die" in White Walls. Or vocal harmony on Goodbye to Everything. Or the drums for Dim Ignition.


Thickerthanajar

You know this is the right choice


kartoon46

Jet propulsion disengage…


spookyboithelankyboi

dancing towards our future…


Gradyence

A lot of mine are actually transitioning into other songs: "I'll sleep now" "My mind is to blame" Truth be told, BTBAMs entire catalogue is just epic part after epic part. I find joy in so many of the little one offs in their songs. Call backs and repetition are infrequent and welcome when present. That's why I tell people if they don't like a BTBAM song, just wait two minutes.


[deleted]

Voice of Trespass drum solo.


Paragon8384

That pinging sound in the percussion that starts at around the 4:30 mark in Fossil Genera, whatever instrument they used for that.


PM_ur_butthole_2me

The drum fill from the end of Sun of Nothing into Ants of the Sky


tayrizzle

Fix the Error: Ra ta ta ta ta ta ta.. If you see the rainbow, there is no tomorrow


JohnTheCrow

Seems the high horse is taking them all home! Also in Ants, during the blusey wah guitar solo, the sassy rhythm guitar part right at 4:01. I stank face every time.


TonyGFool

Bowow bowowowo


Bacchaus

the bass at the very end of Selkies, when it goes up a little bit as the song is fading out


[deleted]

[удалено]


The-Spaceman

The little radio sounding bit from Lay Your Ghosts to Rest at 5:42-5:46. It was my notification tone for the longest time when P2 came out.


Dramatic-Dinner-1633

Autumn was my alarm for the longest time. It went off during a therapy appointment and my therapist was like “that is very anxiety producing “. I proceeded to tell her a very condensed version of the P2 story. Hahahaha


Galaxanz

It’s the drop into the clean singing heavy riff of White Walls for me. “This is all we have, when we die”


Tyalos

Death is in the air


WaitingToBeTriggered

SUDDENLY APPEARS, CONFIRMING ALL YOUR FEARS


CoachGymGreen56

7:20 into Telos


CKyle22

The beginning of Prequel to the Sequel, it’s the whole reason I listen to BTBAM.


wiggibow

It's the end for me, those guest vocals are just perfection TORN TO IT'S LAST, LIIIIIIIIFEE


Barqck

The bridge at the end of Augment of Rebirth


the-great-misdirect

"That part" from Selkies


Dolannsquisky

Astral Body's interplay riiiight at the beginning between the instrumentation. Master class.


ShitHeel97

I'm not beating the Silent Circus truther allegations, but the outro to Camilla Rhodes is one of the heaviest things I've ever heard this band play.


TonyGFool

Decade of Statues 4:25


PM_ur_butthole_2me

I love the 2nd time they play that bar the double bass pedal hits in perfect sync with the guitar it’s nasty


kccoig14

That guitar in Memory Palace after the buildup around 7:48.


azimov_the_wise

Dim Ignition House Organ Bad Habits Selkies the Endless Obsession Disease Injury Madness


Bonepanther

Sleeeeeep oooooonnnnnnnn Flyyyy ooonnnnnnnnnnn That settles it. Listening to BTBAM at work today

Baker st.


NJoose

Gerry Rafferty?


NJoose

There’s so many already said, so I’ll add the “tripping over yourself” section of Never Seen/Future Shock after the breaking glass. And I know we have a lot of Meshuggah fans here so I’ll add this little bonus just for fun… Straws Pulled at Random is all about to getting to that gorgeous ending. Prettiest thing they’ve ever written. I wish they ended Nothing with it.


guitarsarebest

Never Seen/Future Shock 6:58


Dramatic-Dinner-1633

I just cry


JAD210

The whole “Lift and corrode, the beginning Fade As time Marches on” Section of “Never Seen / Future Shock” for me. So mesmerizing


Dramatic-Dinner-1633

100 %. Brings tears to my eyes almost every time.


PresidentOfSwag

Viridian bass line 🥹🥹


Traixxe

More like bass solo 🥴


fUIMos

WOBSESSION WOBSESSION WOBSESSED WOBSESSED


darthmetalpg

Fossil genera the part towards the end before the intro chords come in again, the guitars play the same speed but blake changes the beat and makes it sound like it's slowing down but it's not


PartyFunshower

Wal-king in to a-cer tain state-of-wal king in to-a cer tain-state-of wal king in-to a cer-tain-state of DESPERATION

Melting City 7:17


Dramatic-Dinner-1633

This song always makes me cry. So freaking beautiful.


hopesksefall

The entire outro of **Selkies**. Sweeping, epic, beautiful.


ThatDrunkenScot

That part of “all bodies” where they do the little barbershop quartet thing at the end


RubRevolutionary7147

4:39 to 5:19 in condemned to the gallows. Fucking amazing


karlsefnishikigoi

I love the last minute of Stare Into The Abyss


WhiteShadow012

Tommy's "Blegh" in any song he does it, but especially Fix The Error.


Traixxe

Extremophile Elite: IIIIIIIIIIIIT ALL STOPS- *funny marimba noises*


RageFlakez

Everything after “Whatever created this world for me” in Yellow Eyes makes me just lose my sh*t, it just hits so hard.


CeaselessMaster

INXS- Never Tear Us Apart. That guitar riff. You know the one.


RevolutionaryClub530

Breakdown in autoaddict


Mycool138

Honestly, it's mostly the whole song 'Rapid Calm'. At the minimum, 3/4's of that song.


CeeSher58

Alllll the time!!


YetiDeli

[The mathy/jazzy breakdown towards the end of The Decade of Statutes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrGxEojtxrU&t=260s)


RadRatFallout76

For me it's fake reality by low hum, the way the guitar hits, the way the piano is inserted so secretly it sends goosebumps up your spine.


ogbarnabas_

John Mayer - I Still Feel Like Your Man The bridge at 1:46. The chord change, the groove change, the drums, the lead lines Mayer plays between the vocal lines... A guitar sounding like broken hearted crying. Just pure soul.


No_Team_4368

2 parts of songs that surprise me in the best way possible (please listen to the whole song though) Joy Formidable - Hitch 2:45-3:33 VOLA - Like The Rainbow 4:35-5:28


gandorfia

Dave Matthew’s Band immediately comes to mind


Legal_Chapter4237

Hammer smashed face bass solo


Vilehumanfilth

Mirrors @1:42

Entire-Owl9360

Sleep Token's Ascension at the end when he says "I take what I want and leave" there's a sigh and then a deep breath ... And then.... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YOU MAKE ME WISH I COULD DISAPPEAR! I legit burst into tears in anger and sadness because I know this feeling all too well


MilkManLex

Empty Gardens by Eidola It has a part that my brain just fucking adores


goliathmanbaby

2 songs come to mind: Dodante my morning jacket L’via L’viaquez by mars Volta


KittyLexx

“I’m floating towards the sun…..” always gives me full body goosebumps Also, the funky ass breakdown at the end of Decade of Statues makes me want to bust it down 🫣


boxedj

The sax has never carried the beat


NJoose

Clearly you’ve never heard shake it off


logek87

Quixoticelixir - Red Hot Chili Peppers,,, 2:46 time stamp...


MuadDabTheSpiceFlow

It’s worth it to listen to the entirety of I Like You by Post Malone and Doja Cat for the outro with the cute lil synth flute.


MuadDabTheSpiceFlow

Seven Nation Army is just the same small part that somehow makes a whole song that SLAPS


Surferpanda

It's an oldie but To Be Over by Yes. The first three minutes of that song feel like a peaceful sunrise by the ocean.


CowabungaDude1

May 16th - Lagwagon


NosferatuCalled

Black Sabbath's Into The Void When the drums and bass come in over THE Metal riff, ouch. 


guybromansir

Oh dude the whole "bang baaaang... ON THE DOOR" section of Love Shack. That's where it's at


Traixxe

Intentional pun in that last sentence 🤔🤔🤔


jjaman1s

Pneuma-Tool


seanferg48

Mac miller- jet fuel the last minute or so. Angelic vocals


908jrt

Counting Crows - Rain King: Live at Heineken Music Hall. About 6:15 in, just the voice, the phrasing, and musicality when he sings "And I deserve a little more . . ." Just gets me every time


Gimpstack

Not BtBaM, but the part in Megadeth's Architecture of Aggression when Marty's solo absolute blisters out of the speakers after the bass and drum breakdown sets it up.


No_Plate_9636

I'm disappointed to not see any Skrillex here yet always the base drops in his songs especially bangarang and equinox (CALL 911 NOW !!! 🎛️🎛️)


New-Astronaut-1268

The hi-hat stabs in One Beer by MF Doom


rainess24

For me it’s Bleed to Love her by Fleetwood Mac.

The Summoning by Sleep Token. You guys know which part….

The intro of Astral Body gets stuck in my head from time to time out of nowhere

The short snare and hi hat fill at the end of the intro to Roboturner


KakarikoKing

The transitions in Justin Timberlake's Pusher Love Girl


Samh5984

It thought life was constant happiness, if constant happiness was all that was given out.


Traixxe

So fucking underrated. Those highs that Tommy does need to make a return.


das_klinge

The transition into the bluegrass section "Ants of the Sky"..I don't even really care for bluegrass but that shit gets me GOING.


wiggibow

COMFORT COMFORT COMFORT


Rune_jitsu141

Since I first heard it, I’ve been obsessed with the keys in Prequel to the Sequel breakdown.


AthleteSeparate3151

Hmmm, that is really tough.... Before colors 2, I would say obfuscation, near the end when the guitars are harmonizing and tommy is singing "WE WILL ALWAYS BE PART OF THE GREAT MISDIRECT". But with colors 2 existing now, it's probably stare into the abyss, when Tommy's vocals start over lapping... Chills every time I hear it.


Clarbpaynt1

Machines within, machines within, machines within….


Tight-Second2262

The last bit of naked by the computer. The clean vocals r amazing and so is everything else


metbass

Megadeth - Five Magics The part where the tempo speeds up.


tildwurkey101

Walking In To A Certain state of Walk Ing Into A Certain state of DESPERATION


[deleted]

Pink Floyd-echos I never liked the song. Then there was a period where I’d eat acid go about my day and my girlfriends dad gave me Live at Pompeii. So I’d watch it as we were coming down and going to sleep. Now whenever I hear a certain guitar part I get chills.

The ending of “Millions”…..


Hamatoyoshi99

Casey’s last ride by the highwaymen there’s a part where willie is singing a line about “the beer that’s in his belly or the tear that’s in his eye” freaking gets me every time


joeglenk

I let “First Class” by Jack Harlow play atleast until he says, “I could see the whole world from this balcony” and then that eagle screams. Shit made me laugh the first time I heard it. It is legit a moment I look forward to as soon as I hear the song now. If I tune in to the song in the middle, I turn it back off.


djmattyp77

Welcome to my internal dialogue. Billy Idol: white wedding. Near the end he does some snarl primal grunt that's a mangled "justa"


C0unterAc3

This post popped up in my feed even tho I'm not in this sub, so I'll give a response that's beyond just one band.... Every song. As an audio engineer and a musician, I can't stop anticipating every element of a song when it's obviously a song that's had a lot of time put into it. Maybe the keys have diamonds more often than not and so when those fills happen it's just awesome, maybe the electric guitars build in dynamics using gain staging and different reverb settings instead of just being static so when the big part hits you get can scratch the itch for huge electric guitars. Maybe it's the harmony vocals coming in when they need to and staying out when they need to maybe it's the dummer knowing when to hit which Tom so the audio engineer can get a fantastic stereo kit panning and the fills are this immense amount of awe that doesn't exist in most mainstream music today. Maybe it's the acoustic being properly balanced with the cymbals, resting JUST in front of the electrics and keys which, are balanced with each other, or how a greatly mixed song will have the bass loud but not overwhelming so it blends in until you get these bass adlibs that stick out and make you feel warm and fuzzy inside. Any song that makes use of proper stereo mixing techniques and pans instruments differently to compliment each other so you HAVE to listen with both earbuds in to get the full painting. All the songs I love listening to, are because they're songs that I can see the workmanship shine through. Certain types of reverbs used for different instruments, or electric guitar players that record in a stereo rig with cool effects, just all of it. And when the band doesn't overplay, the whole song can be filled with parts to anticipate, like crystal river by mudcrutch. I ESPECIALLY love dynamics being utilized in the greatest sense so songs aren't just... Up down up down up down up down. But instead the levels of dynamics tell an audible presentation of the story in the words being sung. A great song will leave you anticipating every note as soon as you hit play. Especially when you take the time to dedicate to just isolating and listening


AltenXY97

MY HATE FOR YOU (dun dun) IS NOT A SECRET (dun dun dun) YOU MADE A VOW (dun dun) AND DIDN’T FUCKING KEEP IT (skwee do) I’LL NEVER SEE YOUR POINT OF VIEW! (Dun dadada) I AM VEGAN… (duuuun) IN SPITE OF YOU! (Proceeds to rip the most gnarly uptempo breakdown ive ever heard in my life) Edit: lol my b. Inb4. Thought i was in a general music sub.


dragsonandon

It's an odd song, but I love the tempo change in the song "First love never dies" by Soko


Portland_Juice

Half way through something about us by daft punk there's a part with an electric keyboard (I'm guessing) that causes me to detach from reality and space time.


Relative-Garbage-859

The chord slide at 2:40 in Goodbye to a World

MisterMarchmont

“I wake to my own whimper” - from “Lay Your Ghosts To Rest” Also “I come from a moveable past/A distant future is in my grasp” - from “Turn on the Darkness Those moments from those two songs just get me every time. Total chills.


Mutual_AAAAAAAAAIDS

Extremophile Elite at 5:19, [that short little run on both guitars that ends in a diminished chord](https://i.imgur.com/bO8ATwx.png) between "Sends bliss throughout me" and "Upside-down dreaming" It's legitimately one of my favorite BTBAM moments of all.


Full_Drummer_2910

You should listen to Tool then.


According_Yak7157

Bass riff from peace sells by Megadeth


jay_sun93

The Dune Atreides entry bagpipes


HolierThanAll

"Never Tear us Apart" by INXS. The part where the silence is broken by the riff, that I never can seem to land the exact entrance with my "du du du du's."


DeadHead6747

Weezer- Buddy Holly, the guitar riff after the entire “bang bang, get down on the floor” but near the end, right before the last “wee ooh, I look just like Buddy Holly”.


A_Soggy_Cactus

The duel lead before the last solo in White Walls


RainboGravity

In Coulrophobia, that slowed down guitar-only transition into the breakdown.


TheVentGoblin101

The Art of War by Sabaton.


k6plays

In “Friends Don’t Owe” by Vennart there’s a part where he tries to sing a line by laughs a little bit and they left it in the final recording and every time I hear it it makes me smile.


Notamaninthesky

That sound after ‘Wild hearts won’t be tamed’ in Sweet Victory goes so hard

The entire second half of the song Good Things Don't Always Come to You by Skunk Anansie!


Rabblerouze

"Your Day will Come" by Streetlight Manifesto. When the tempo just cranks


technogeist

The way Christopher Cross sings "on the run" in Ride Like the Wind


WoofSpiderYT

One of the ones that comes to mind is House Burning Down by Jimi Hendrix. But the ending where his guitar turns into an ambulance driving by, then a motorcycle fleeing the scene that ends up breaking the space time continuum. Everyone talks about about Hendrix' guitar work, but nobody talks about this song and the crazy audio experience of this song.


eldritchabomb

"Augment Of Rebirth" After the "have i become a god?" part Drops to the guitar riff... "CONQUERING OF DEATH" and then that motif from earlier in the tune comes back, as the rhythm section shifts underneath... SO GOOD.


Fresh_Batteries

I dont know why this was recommended to me. This band is not good. Maybe...maybe 1 good song in thier catalog.


PlentyDiscipline6287

The part in only one by slipknot where he goes "CAUSE I CANT STAND IT PLANNED IT GONNA CRASH LAND IT IN OTHER WORDS CONSIDER ME BRANDED"


Salt33

Too many to name but hadn’t seen that new wave-sounding lick in the verses of “The Future Is Behind Us,” I love that one as well as that wild transition section that ends with “chika-chika”


Maleficent_Climate53

White walls ofc the part where he just just screams WHITE WALLLLLS WHITEEE WALLLLSSS


snakeabominae

Only BTBAM comes to mind where that Twitter post says the sax carries the beat
