May be as well be ANYTHING else, but that what makes the most sense for me and for sure there's a short pause between the words or syllables. I used earphones. This album is sick with amount of the details that is barely meant to be heard. :shock:


"You'll do/kill anything" on the left channel 2:15 and on is also very cool.

I believe the line is just "you'll do anything" but I don't remember if that's established officially. I always took it to be playful but on the nose point about twoismers lol

I think it's you will believe anything... Chemstrailsss.
Anyway! There's a lot of stuff people don't mention. Short after beginning of jacquard causeway, there's a woman's voice talking in the left channel: "*something* *something*... Four." or "*something something*... before". I wish we could talk more about this stuff, because the album is full of it.

True yeah I think I meant to say that I heard it as "you'll believe anything.."
Yeah of all albums, TH is chock full of stuff that I think we still haven't fully cracked or sample sourced. The album is resplendent on tiny sounds in every tune.

Hear whatever you feel. This is too hard for the most of the casual listeners (no offence) to pick up so it will be much more difficult to catch what's exactly being said. We're speaking about words whispered within max 1 sec., so deeply hidden in the mix that even finding them and being able to hear and confirm they're present on the subsequent listens is MUCH.
