Many of us on platforms like this are introverts, or autistic, or have social anxiety, or for whatever reason, have trouble meeting new people or engaging with strangers. If someone wanted to engage you in conversation, what topic would you be happiest to talk about?
It can be hard to describe, thus my interest in what causes it. For myself I’ve somewhat narrowed it down to generally somber and emotionally-charged moments.
The vocal/scream breakdown in the middle, though I think it’s important how the whole song sets the stage for it:
Deftones - Knife Party
The whole thing, but especially the higher notes sung:
Low - Laser Beam
The guitar lead starting at 1:15 & 2:05 and how it synergizes with the bass line, especially on the third and fourth measure of its melody:
Explosions in the Sky - Greet Death
It can happen in songs with different moods though it’s more rare, and I kind of think those moments still share some qualities in common with the examples above.
Joyce Manor - Christmas Card
