    Wolves in the Throne Room - Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog (10:33) -- amazing, intense black metal

    Goldfrapp - Rocket (Grum Remix) (6:45) -- I'm bending the "no remixes" rule for this one because a) it's still a proper song (it's not a club remix with a few bits of the original vocal) and b) it's FAB

    The Orb - Blue Room (39:57) -- gorgeous ambient track and the longest single to ever enter the UK charts

    F*** Buttons - Surf Solar (10:32) -- sort of like electronic post-rock

    Slowdive - Crazy For You (6:00) -- six minutes precisely! So many to choose from out of their back catalogue but I think this is my absolute favourite of theirs

    Torche - Amnesian (6:26) -- Torche are one of my favourite bands at the moment, and I love this track off last year's album, Meanderthal

    Baroness - Rays On Pinion (7:35) -- epic sludgy prog metal

    Electric Wizard - Funeralopolis (8:43) -- loud, crunchy doom metal from Dorset

    Underworld ft. High Contrast - Scribble (6:24) -- I love both acts so this is a no-brainer

    As a Prog Rock fan it would be easier to list my favourite tracks under 6 minutes! ;)

    Awesome! A fellow prog fan here!

    There are a couple of songs which I like which spread over an entire CD. They're split into tracks but the bands concerned (and their fans) consider them to be one song:

    Dream Theater - Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence (8 parts, 42:04)
    Porcupine Tree - The Incident (14 parts, 55:15)
    Transatlantic - The Whirlwind (12 parts, 77:54)

    This is why I consider a 'track' as different from a 'song'. In most case, a song does take up one track on an album, but with the above cases and many others, the same song may spread over several tracks, playing without pause and with recurring musical themes.

    Say Anything - Admit It!!! – 6:12

    Prototypical non-conformist
    You are a vacuous soldier of the thrift store Gestapo
    You adhere to a set of standards and tastes
    That appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges (bullshit)
    Giving a thumbs up or thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art
    Go analog baby, you're so post-modern
    You're diving face forward into a antiquated path
    It's disgusting, its offensive -don't stick your nose up at me

    :D

    wewt a Say Anything fan :D
