djp commented on Portishead Pulls The "Rip" Cord, at 5:54 PM on May 13 There are two synth lines at the beginning of "We Carry On", the first of which is playing the root note of the song on a fluttering pitch up an octave while the second is playing the root down and a fifth, then shifting up a half step and back down in a rhythmic pattern. At 1:45, the guitar is playing a flat 7th, then a 5th, then a 7th, then back to a 5th, all of which are pretty standard notes when looking at building chords. I don't really care that you don't like it but don't make up things to make yourself look smarter. more » [idolator]
