Magnified

Magnified is the second album by the American alternative rock band Failure. Magnified differs greatly from Failure's debut album Comfort by using a great deal of bass guitar distortion. Their use of a bassline as the main structure to the song as well as distortion can be heard best on "Frogs" and "Wonderful Life". Harmonics are also used extensively and can be heard quite prominently on the songs "Moth", "Wonderful Life" and "Empty Friend".

gollark: And you *can* do just raw decimal, but then the comments will be wrong, because the comment system is kind of tacked on and works directly on the URLs.
gollark: Such as?
gollark: You also need to scrape the negatives.
gollark: Also, the numbers are stupidly big.
gollark: They're not entirely linear; you kind of need to know the encoding.
