Then, naturally but still somewhat surprisingly,
there we were at You And Whose Army?, the fourth song on
Amnesiac. We had been happily (if sometimes desperately) making
our way through the micro-labyrinths the band had been constructing
for us, sometimes finding ourselves in slightly familiar settings
-- the morose watery landscape of Pyramid Song had signposts
we seemed to recognize from the similar if less claustrophobic wilds
of Exit Music (For a Film) -- sometimes wondering if we
were completely lost. And then the bottom dropped out -- not the floor,
but the bottom, the bass-end -- and You and Whose Army?
began, and something very strange happened. |
