THE OUTRO
As bitter as the verses of “Too
Bad" are, the offer of “let's wal,
let's talk” in the chorus implies
a resolution to, or at least a
‘mature confrontation of, the
disappointment the singer
expresses, This more grounded
attitude is amplified by the
guitar solo occurring in the
Outro, Instead of the schizoid
fuzzed-and-backward double
guitars of the main solo, here
Is one guitar voiced with an
cearthier, bluesier tone. It works
the same range as the solo
guitars, but with more energy
(continuous 16th notes), less
ambiguity (clearly pitched
fretted notes), and a clear
