 Topic: Best outro of all time?
Posted: July 24 2010 at 18:53 |
|
Mine is Octavarium. A rising, incredibly climactic solo followed by an entire orchestra playing my favourite melody of all time and then the album ending exactly as it began? Unbeatable in my mind...

the most overrated is "Eclipse", which is just a rip-off of "Brain Damage"
the best is "Losing Time/Grand Finale"

Grand Finale is another goody.  But I'm confused about your first statement.

which reminds me, "For To End Yet Again" (or "For To Yet End Again") from Arcturus - The Sham Mirror is the second best. Crazy dynamics in that track, what an abrupt ending.

Predictable: Supper's Ready, Close to the Edge
Maybe not so predictable: Deliverance (Opeth), Kashmir, Sheep, Collapse the Light Into Earth, and especially Chant of the Ever Circling Skeletal Family! (Bowie)

Saw the thread title and immediately thought of Octavarium, only to see that the OP beat me to it. 
Supper's Ready and The Ministry of Lost Souls are great as well.

"Hamburger Concerto" by Focus. The last three-and-a-half minutes are possibly my favorite three-and-a-half minutes in all of prog.
"Victorian Brickwork" by Big Big Train. When the brass band comes in at about the eight-minute mark, it's like... it's like a brass band coming in at about the eight-minute mark. Very beautiful.
Another favorite is LTE's "When the Water Breaks." I regularly listen to the entire 17-minute song just to hear those last twenty seconds.
