Lyrically, imo, I Appear Missing

that n then straight into …like clockwork. that’s straight depresso mode right there

That piano to guitar slide solo is freaking cool! It’s very Led Zep and Pink Floyd

Most of what you see my dear, is purely for show. Because, not everything that goes around, comes back around, you know… Fucking 🗣️CINEMA🗣️

Musically, too. That guitar solo sounds like it's sobbing.

Some guitar parts also remind me of cats wailing. (In a good way) amazing piece of art.

Truth

Josh’s Magnum Opus

Aside from stuff already mentioned, in The Fade

suture up your future is so beautiful and melancholy

This is so underrated by many, while it’s lyrical perfection. I think it’s lyrically their best.

lyrics are amazing, but i love the whole atmosphere of the song especially in the chorus

Reading this I had to immediately queue up that song.

So my brother and I used to share a cd player, I didn’t realize he was home and he heard me singing that entire album at the top of my lungs while I was laying on the couch with my eyes closed.

Personally, I feel like Kalopsia is at the top of the "beautiful" list.

Villains Of Circumstance would be my vote

I strongly submit this is their most deeply underrated song. my only theory is that it's not a classic banger and it's on a fairly unliked album (by QotSA standards)

Agreed. After seeing them in concert last year, I've since given Villains another chance. It's got some great tracks on it and I'm not sure why I used to dislike it as much as I did. Sure it's different, but all of their albums have their own unique feel and sound to them.

Agree

Vampyre of time and memory

This one

This is my vote as well. Top 3 QotSA song!

This is mine. Listened to it hundreds of times but still get chills when the guitar comes in

i regret that i have only one upvote to give. Clear winner here,

I sat by the ocean is a beautiful remedy

Long Slow Goodbye acoustic in a church with those acoustics and Zane Lowe sitting there trying to not cry. So simple and hauntingly beautiful.

And Zane does not talk for a couple of minutes..... /s

Despite thinking that the most beautiful songs are in ...like clockwork, I'll 'Go with the flow'. It's a banger, and the lyrics are so beautifully delivered!

Carnavoyeur is up there, among the others mentioned.

This Lullaby?

I really like …Like Clockwork. Truly beautiful. This lullaby is beautifully haunting. Mosquito song is great too Suture up your future and Kalopsia work too

Straight Jacket Fitting has to be on the list for me. From 3:52-4:25 is a top 3 queens moment.

Yea, SJF is a beautiful song.

I appear missing. Smooth and every instrument gets their turn but the base is orgasmic along with the vocals.

1. The Vampyre of Time and Memory 2. Villains of Circumstance 3. Fortress 4. Kalopsia 5. I Appear Missing

Oh fuck… here it comes… ********fortress********

One of the first ones I thought of as well. I just learned that many fans apparently don't like this song and that baffles me.

I never came.

Broken Box

yesss was hoping someone said this!

Has there been a more beautiful line than “take that fucking pussy the elsewhere”?

yes, yes there has: “Take that broken pussy elsewhere”

Hideaway

Lightning Song

“The imagine Dragons” 😂. Fuck them though I hate their guts.

Fun machine 100%. Or feel good hit.

I personally feel it's "Stop Fucking Reposting The Same Stupid Questions You Moron", the passion Josh has for the verses is perfect.
