Glasgow band Lapsus Linguae are pretty good at this sort of thing.

I personally overlooked that Grandaddy song, because the majority of it settles into one groove, but perhaps a case can be made for it seeing as most of the big changes are near the start.
your Spiritualized choice is clearly their best song, "Won't Get To Heaven (The State I'm In"your Six.BySeven choice is...there isn't one. I have all their albums. There isn't one.
I'm not considering something which is at a push a room with just about two doors fwiw. It's gotta be a festival of choices.
Something tells me I might enjoy that Myspace link, cheers!

Is someone going to make this into a spotify playlist please?

Louis, buy the album, it's entitled 'You Got Me Fraiche', on Fierce Panda, came out a few years ago.
It's right up your alley.

I've just been reading their website...they seem to be coming from a really awesome place, where intellectual philosophising meets utter mischief. I'll investigate! :)

I've just ordered it on Amazon.
"Out There" is a great shout, aye. 16 minutes long but that hasn't stopped some of my own recommendations. Maybe something on that Strategy album as well?

love that only one Queen song was mentioned but 'Innuendo' and 'I Want It All' sprang to mind as much as Bo Rhap.
― Hard House SugBanton (blueski), Monday, 23 March 2009 13:39 (fifteen years ago) link
Tooled Up by Bark Psychosis.
Loads of Queen songs do this, I think; I've not heard it in years but doesn't Fat Bottomed Girls?

Stuff mentioned on this thread that's not in there I simply don't have.
― Sickamous Mouthall (Scik Mouthy), Monday, 23 March 2009 13:54 (fifteen years ago) link
I can think of a few:
"C'n'C-S Mithering", The Fall"Lights Out For Darker Skies", British Sea Power"Shaking Hand", Women
and probably a lot more, but it's tough gauging which songs are really just a couple of otherwise separate tunes bolted together vs. those are a pretty ingenious patchwork.

Louis, help me think of Verve example.
― Sickamous Mouthall (Scik Mouthy), Monday, 23 March 2009 15:45 (fifteen years ago) link
Sit & Wonder might almost do it.
Or This Is Music.
― Sickamous Mouthall (Scik Mouthy), Monday, 23 March 2009 15:46 (fifteen years ago) link
lol what about "Noise Epic"
or uh
"Gravity Grave"
― Stop relegating Hull you miserable gits! (country matters), Monday, 23 March 2009 15:47 (fifteen years ago) link
or "Feel"!
Trying to pick one that isn't 8 minutes long...
― Sickamous Mouthall (Scik Mouthy), Monday, 23 March 2009 15:49 (fifteen years ago) link
Pavement and The Clash must have something that fits.
I keep thinking of stuff like "Embassy Row", but I'm all like, Aw, that's just a little intro, no more part of the song than Wounded Kite was to Trigger Cut.
But then you've got something like "Half A Canyon". That'd work here, I think.

I didn't think they did tbh. When I did my iTunes scour, I overlooked them for the reason tat their songs, even when long, are generally locked in one swirly groove

Best I could come up with re: Verve is "Stamped," which is still basically one extended groove/jam, though it occurs in series of fits and starts which could possibly be considered rooms?
