Random Start: The Fall of Troy - “A Man. A Plan. A Canal. Panama.”
I love technical music. The problem it can run into, though, is that if the writer stumbles upon something catchy or repeatable, the moment will go by in a flash never to be heard from again. This song is over eight minutes long and I really only listen to it for the part that starts at about 45 seconds. It feels like a chorus and they repeat the pattern twice and then I’m left with 7 minutes of fret board acrobatics that are interesting, but I’m stuck longing for the chorus that never was.
