This is such a sick track...I wonder why it was decided it would be cut from MHTRTC.

Anyone know?

The Aquarius 7" version is awesome, though the abrupt ending is a little bit of a letdown IMO.

Maybe they felt it didn't fit within the album. And it is a lovely track. 8)

i always thought it would be fitting on the hi scores release.

i can't stand this track really. not my kind of boc i guess.

the intro few minutes before the beat picks up reminds me exactly of a goldeneye 007 n64 soundtrack song--"surface" level maybe? idk

I could see it being an opener, maybe.

yo Rodheh, my favorite shirt in high school was a big oversized heavy PHM t-shirt. I wore it on off-uniform days with a black fishnet sweater and a spiked collar.

Chinook was the first song I'd ever heard by BoC. What with me living in Alberta - and fully aware of how awesome Chinooks are - I just HAD to listen to it, lol.

Completely blind listen, but man was it awesome.

My top 5 are:

1. Seven Forty Seven
2. Chinook
3. 1969
4. Everything You Do is a Balloon
5. An Eagle in Your Mind

Why or how those four exclusives eluded an actual release is way beyond me.

Sick dude. Yeah, I wasn't around during the very early days of NIN, but I would have loved to have been.

heh. I just gained new appreciation for the Goldeneye 007 soundtrack


similar guttural baritone

buildup is great in this song, then the drum climax at the end :twisted:

Lol that's great stuff! Played it when I was a youngster with my friend but never really stopped to listen to the soundtrack. Now is the time.
