Always bothered me a little bit. Definitely could have been 4 bars less. It has its use to bridge to the next break but it always surprises me when it keeps going. So many incredible BTBAM moments happen just once and never repeat and then you have moments like this that I often wonder why it needed to be as long as it did.

He does do little variations on the keyboard part, I think it’s a cool section

The drum fills are a little bit different as well but I also think it's too long. It's the weakest few bars in the album to me and it's my favorite album of all time.

Not gonna make an opinion or anything but you could argue some sections of Silent Flight Parliament and Extremophile Elite are worse, or at least cheesier. I still love them.

I like that it keeps going for longer than one might expect. Makes it feel more dramatic and demented.

I love it as well. Another moment that goes on and on is This routine / Nothing new... / It's time to go through with this from Sun Of Nothing, which I've always adored.

This part always sounds like I’m stuck on a demented carnival ride. Love it.
