    Yup... That's the one. You are correct. :oops:

    No shame required..... It's on Go as well.


    The stuff they used to record binaurally isn't really strange sounds, though. It's a different listen, but I don't hear any particular sounds really caused by the mics. The fake human head has the microphones down inside the ear canal, so it "hears" things the way a human does.


    What about the tea kettle whistle in Not For You?

    Yeah, when I looked back at my post earlier I realized the P.A. and microphones used on Binaural, no matter how unusual, were actually filtering the sounds coming through them. Good one on the tea kettle. The idea of a tea kettle blowing its lid does fit nicely with the lyrical content of the song.

    I left this out of my first post....... I can definitely see where you were comin from though. ;)

    Are we sure it's Dave throwing sticks?

    I do believe so. Seems to me there was an article years ago that dave had to play it over and over because either ed or the producer werent happy with it, so they wanted him to play it until they liked it. The result from what I understand is after many many takes of this for dave....Not sure if its true, but that is my recolection of it.

    My friend was going to see Eddie last night. Since he was in Vegas, I gave him 5 Grand to gamble with. I told him I wanted it all to go on Black. Bastard! PhillyCrownOfThorns-11-2-12

    If you listen to the CD you'll hear it more clearly. On youtube you can barely hear it at the 0:16 - 0:25 mark. I thought everyone knew about that one... :D

    The list includes Rival and says Dakota. I'm assuming that's the name of the dog growling at the beginning. Unless a Dakota is something i've never heard of.

  • I always feel like the coin idea on Of the Girl is the result of the coin hitting the stage when Ed went off on the crowd for them throing things. You can clearly hear the coins hit the stage. Probably not where they got the idea but it sure does remind me of it.

    Yep. Dakota provided the canine vocal.

    I remember seeing a trashcan lid in Jack Irons' drum kit on SVT

    Don't know if you can hear it on a song -- anyone?

    Okay, so i just listened to it here at work on the ipod. I had heard that sound but didnt know it was a kettle.

    thats cool. i guess i always just figured it was a controlled feedback of a guitar or mic.
    when my band use to cover this song my guitar player did it with controlled feedback.

    thanks.
    Peace, Love.

    The one I'm trying to figure out is what's making the whale sounds on... you guessed it, "The Whale Song"! I'm leaning towards the same device Ed used to alter his voice during the Daughter tag from LO2L- whatever that was.

    When Mike spoke with Seattle’s 103.7 FM earlier this week, he relayed this information. I guess O' Brien pushed them in that direction. The song is a ballad written by Eddie and is reminiscent of his 'Into the Wild' stuff. It's on Backspacer, by the way.

    Got it, thanks! I haven't been able to load that interview yet.

    So pumped for this album
