To shock the life out of you when you are driving and it's all quiet?!

God I remember that secret track on Ash's 1977 where when you think the album has finished and all of a sudden there is this "track" where they all start vomiting on the floor [barf] haha.

room on the cd so why not.

I love 'em

They always catch me out. There was one warp records album that had the most enormous sub-bass rumble like a tube train passing under you about 5 minutes after the end of the last track. Used to make us jump out of our skin late at night... which strangely I liked!

i've only ever liked the one off "the man who" by travis. blue flashing light it was called as far as i remember and it was the best song on the album

pisses me off because 99% of the time I use random, so get a bloody great silence for ages

That one on the end of "Nevermind" scared the life out of me the first time I heard it! I had dozed off (yes, really) and it shook me awake!
