Why do bands...

[Rhythm Thief]

Bonus tracks? Usually utter garbage. Actually, does anybody know a good one?

McLusky were in the habit of doing this. There's one at the end of "McLusky Do Dallas", which is pretty good (and is actually an extension of the track "whoyouknow"), and one at the end of "My Pain and Sadness is More Sad and Painful than Yours". That one's not a bad song either.
I think the reason a lot of the ones mentioned so far are rubbish is that they're by Robbie Williams, Coldplay and Oasis. The main problem there is that not enough of their songs are hidden.

Wasn't there one at the end of Jagged Little Pill ?

 

[Melonfish]

there's one at the end of most albums.
i hope for the day i can do this myself, farty little nothing of a track 25 minutes after the last track.

I think I have a Placebo album that has a long silence... or hidden track, or whatever. Well actually, to be more precise, I know I have a Placebo album (the first one but I maybe have the 2nd one too) but I think it has one of those gaps on it. I'm glad that's clear now.

My wife has a Robbie Williams cd... it could do with more silences. Imho of course.
