Abrupt song endings
Are they a case of bad editing, artistic license, or something more sinister? Are they done to make you think you got a bad download, and do they then frustrate you so hard that you go and buy the actual CD, and then you still hear the abrupt ending, but at least you paid for it? US version of Smile (by Boris), I’m looking at you!
(In their case I’m more willing to bet it was something like “enough of this garglemesh, NEXT SONG!)
The first song on the new Porter’s Head album is like that too, but on closer listens it’s not all that abrupt. At least the notes are allowed to finish.
