Poll: Which album has the best instrumental track?

Which do you think is best? For albums that don't have an official instrumental track, I substituted one that might as well be.

Couldn't really come up with anything for Remember Two Things, Everyday and Away from the World.

    You really made some reaches here. Three albums aren't included at all so why make up instrumental tracks for three other albums?

    If anything other than #34 wins this poll, the terrorists have won.

    Grux is a pretty close second choice, but #34 is the clear winner.

    PNP is actually my favorite on the list, but that is because of the the lyrics. So #34 is the answer to the question, Grux second.

    #34

    Pantala Naga Pampa has over 20 words, definitely not an instrumental track.
    Not to mention there are several BTCS instrumental tracks in between songs that deserve to be on this poll.

    #34 is obviously the answer then KKJ

    but out of those BTCS commercials, ABI, Grux, (or anything else if im forgetting anything) i think grux is by far the best.
    ill get crud for this, but grux>smlam is awesome. wish they did this live...if smlam was a good live song

    Dont take it personally. You made a somewhat confusing poll with an obvious answer, people are just giving you a hard time.

    If an album doesn't have an instrumental track, then don't list the album. You even said this, "Couldn't really come up with anything for Remember Two Things, Everyday and Away from the World." Crash doesn't contain an instrumental track, you can't just make up criteria for one album just so you can include it.

    Re: Poll: Which album has the best instrumental track?

    That's because Crash features two songs which are typically paired up with an instrumental bridge. Can you say the same about RTT, ED and AFTW?

    Does the album contain the instrumental bridge? No? Then it's just like RTT, ED and AFTW and has no instrumental tracks.

    34 is the better piece, but KKJ holds the record for more times played by me. I like to get drunk, blast it in the kitchen, and dance around in my bathrobe while I'm rolling meatballs and preparing sauce every Sunday for the fam.

    Op should have made an instrumental thread (no words). Would have been less confusing.

    #35 is terrible. I get people's obsession with Roi, but good god its a repeating riff

    its not even a song to really even label terrible, but the fact people mention it warrants it

    It perfectly represents LeRoi moving on from this life to the next, like a bird discovering flight for the first time. Which is what the repeating riff does sound like.

    LeRoi repeats a riff for a lot of #34, but just because it's on UTTAD it gets massively fallated.
