Anyone else pissed off by the fact that Geffen made them cut the coda of the end for an 'accessible opening track'? I'm sure most fans of this band, like me, like extended instrumental parts. Becuz Coda is the actual name of the 'untitled' track 9 on Washing Machine. Including this part at the end its length is about seven and a half minutes. It's great anyway, despite having been edited.

No, I do not mind that the coda is at track 9. "Becuz" is such a great song, and a great opener, and in my book it adds a little cohesiveness to the album by placing the coda later on in the album.

I always took the whole "move the coda" for an "accessible" opener with a grain of salt, anyway. SY had full artistic control during their stay at Geffen. And that two minute coda being moved hardly makes Washing Machine a more commercially accessible album. It's still an uncompromising work of art, and one...

@wiggy52 Yes, I decided to recombine the main part with the coda and liked the result! You can check it out here if interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iHawRhdex7c
