Re: !!!!PLAY THIS SONG IN REVERSE!!! A REFLECTION IS ALWAYS IN REVERSE!!
I reversed it in Sound Recoreder... it's a neat listen, to be sure... the drums are very cool... but in general, listen to it forwards. Much better overall, I think.

I thought nothing of it because Ive worked with reverse re verb in a studio before and I wasn't really that impressed.
but i got to thinking "Reflection in a mirror is the reverse of the image in front of it"
so I recorded the song on my wave file recorder and played it back in reverse.
I noticed that the song in reverse almost sounds identical to the song played normal.
I also got a whole new set of lyrics from that last verse. although alot of it is just a mess but there is a point that you can clearly hear lyrics.
on purpose or just a fluke?
who knows but with these guys you can expect the unexpected.
and as for those lyrics Im not telling what i think they say cuase then some turd/jerk is going to post something rude about it. and Im not up for any asshole comments tonite..

RedMetalSox, if youre running windows, open up your sound recorder. It lives on my desktop now so i dont know where exactly to find it, but just go to your search tool and type in sndrec32. The file needs to be in wav. format, so if youve got a converter convert the trac first, then open sound recorder, go file -> open and open up the wav. file. Then, go to Effects -> reverse (its the last option).
Hope that helps and please excuse me if i sound patronising. I really do appear to be making the assumption that you have no idea how to use a computer. Not my intention.. I just did the whole 'make it as simple as possible just in case'. Hope that works for you.

Re: !!!!PLAY THIS SONG IN REVERSE!!! A REFLECTION IS ALWAYS IN REVERSE!!
Holy shit!
I don't have headphones with me or a way of reversing it when I get home, but you got me thinking.
At my house we've got a nice sized fish tank. I'll have to do it in short intervals---I've never went digging for pearls, so I probably can't hold my breath more than a minute.
I'll get one of my friends to hold me upside down with my head completely submerged in the water while both the standard version and the backward version are pumped at maximum volume through speakers under and all aroud the outside of the tank except for the side my face is facing.
On this side I'll have a mirror positioned to reflect my upside down face as I listen---one minute at a time. I'll have a notepad to the side and a pen of course so I can transcribe everything I hear as I hear it.
Fuck it---I'l even smoke some DMT before going under (and of course whenever I come up for air----actually fuck the air! Just DMT and then back down. And yes, I'll wear goggles.) :O

My guess is one of those 12year old wannabe gothpunks who listens to Good Charlotte and My Chemical Romance and prides himself on being really cutting edge and into the devil's music.

MAYNARD DOES BELIEVE IN GOD! :p
But seriously, that's what it sounds like from 2:06 on. Kinda scary.
hah i can totally hear what you a saying here, it may just be because I'm reading along with it. but you can make out the words
edit: now that i listen to it more i hear "....who'll save you in the beginning. It was God who (2 somethings) forgives/forgave for (something) evils."

Maynard sounds odd, but the music is amazingly awesome, and the drums
do indeed make a wicked sound. I cant seem to here the mortal bit tho.
Even though its an interesting idea.
