Re: The interminable stache-pause (“The Interminable Stache” being my Queen cover-band, obviously), it sounds like everything cuts out and Jonathan does a natural or tap harmonic somewhere – which is not that uncommon a trick in music. Just perhaps not so common in snappy rock.
I think maybe the reason it doesn’t work for many people is that the harmonic is so gentle, it doesn’t stand out at all against the track it’s supplanting. Possibly if it was louder, and the drums had like a BAM, a beat that they terminated on, it wouldn’t feel so “out of nowhere”.
