- Here's the song Quince from IFS. A prefect end to a perfect album.
Lyrics:
You could've been raised in Africa.
We lacked in our vigor, been an "x" on the calendar.
Losing our cool in Antarctica, so I put my coat on 'ya,
the breeze was light burgandy.
I learned to stand in Istanbul
So I send you my Morse code,
Till you capture the syllables.
Subtracting the fees under carried time
Somewhere over the Great Divide
Blacked like a candlestick
I have an army suited and ready for you to simply take a bite and steer.
We're more than prepared to fight this unfair.
All you need do is tease your taste and steer.
Your crimes are not mine or theirs, weary from the wear you invent.
I forget for some time, I've been underground and dug to the sound of your breath.

12 years later here I am once more pondering my life, listening to the same song for the unknown time.
I’ve never had so much relation to a comment in my life lol
Heard this for the first time i think 8 or 9 years ago, at night, thinking about a person that now has nothing to do with my life. That moment.. it was one of the best experiences ive ever had in my life.
i dont think i ever heard such musical genuis
God....this band is almost perfect in every aspect...
First time I heard this song I was stoned out my mind I swear I felt like I was swimming when the opening riffs came on for quince
2 sequence set it all
My favorite song of all time ✨
Stifle
verb (used with object)
1. to quell, crush, or end by force
2. to suppress, curb, or withhold
3. to kill by impeding respiration; smother.
verb (used without object)
4. to suffer from difficulty in breathing, as in a close atmosphere.
5. to become stifled or suffocated.
pretty much what you were already saying
something along the lines of "crushing the insides of the fundamentals"
3:40 is one of the coolest parts. Love this band
this song almost makes me cry it's just so amazing, love it
Listening in 2020 after the death of my best friend.
listening in 2016. Edit: now 2018
2019 here
2020 still going strong
now 2021
2021 still crying strong
2021 chaps!
I miss this...
2023.... And on to 2024 (repeat)
Listening in 2017
Still listening 2020
PERFECTION ♥♥♥
I have all their albums on my PSP and PS3 still love them along with Viza.
2020 here I am Darroh and FTM =
Creme de la creme!
I've met these guys. They're from
+Ryan Tidwell best comment i've read in my life
I've seen them 8 times and they've been unforgettable every single time. I've seen various members sick, various bleeding, shook the hands of some, and hugged others. Yet no matter the night or the lineup they put on the best performances I've ever witnessed. I would consider myself very anti religious and yet their talent is god given. (and have you even heard darroh's solo work? i mean, my god. how is he not ruling the world) Count your lucky stars daily that you got to witness them perform on stage. It honestly changed my life forever.
Every show I've ever been to of theirs has been nothing short of an "out of body" musical experience. No other band has been able to just strip away all of my inhibitions and allow me to lose myself in the music completely. My recovery period after each show was substantial too. Almost like a fleeting high. These guys will remain one of my rocks for the rest of my life.
Here in 2022
I’m unsure of these lyrics:
I learned to stand in Instanbul
So I send you my Morse code
It sounds like they could be
A northern star over Istanbul
So I’ll sing you my martyr’s call
@codfish6677 is he talking about the very beginning? dear lord that could quiet be the best thing from this band! freaking awesome
Lyrics are now in the video info. Mind you, the reason you cant find the full lyrics is because FTM never posted them online. The version they posted had the second verse taken out for some reason. So im not sure if the second verse is right, its just what i think it sounds like.
THANK YOU
2023
this a good one
genius
@ChazWMathews Yes, i think on this particular songs they used two guitars.
@codfish6677 i agree with you about when the bough breaks there is a purpose and quince sounds much better after an intro.
...so nice... finally they get at least a bit attention
this is one of the few instances where fables outshines inter, when the bow breaks is done far better on fables as part of upgrade^brigade
It's seriously a toss-up for me.
the best outro to one of they're cd's is probly ...(i)... off of CCSL
2018. Whos with me??!!
2018
i wish they would refo this song on the new album
Does anyone know where to find this song or album? I'm willing to pay or it!
kl thanks
@616rico Try on lyrics wikia. There you can find the complete lyrics of quince.
Ciao Marco.
I already know all the lyrics.
The beginning sounds like Hyper Chondriac Music by Muse.
Can anyone find the full lyrics to quince? I can't find one that hasn''t been cut down...
Listening in 2496. I'm only kind of joking.
Its not really a song, its just an outro to Upgrade^Brigade and an intro to Quince. Whats wrong with it? I think its necessary for the progression of the album so it doesn't start right after the song before it.
So calming. i dont like the song before quince. Can somebody upload just Fair to Midland - Quince ?
i don't, i think is great as it is
And I thought Say When was an amazing way to end a CD.
I was as far from right as I could be!
no, you were right. it's just that this song is maybe even a little MORE amazing.
I believe Say When fits Fables perfectly as an ending just like greener grass for A&A. This song along with Orphan Anthem 86 deserve their own album. LoVE FTM!!
@@kaikleimola8417 and add granny niblo to that little list. I think there's an EP with those 3 songs plus, I think, abigail??? The Drawn & Quartered EP, which I doubt anyone can find for sale because why would anyone surrender any FTM CDs or albums??? Not like they're making more...
And these guys are up there with queens of the stone age/josh homme for writing just BRILLIANT album closers, sometimes even stretching it to a 2-song closing. Check I Appear Missing + Like Clockwork closing QOTSA's Like Clockwork magnum opus, & of course FTM's When... & Quince fr. Inter.Funda.Stifle, & Them Crooked Vultures' Gunman + Spinning In Daffodils.........all sheer brilliance amongst catalogs of brilliant album closings.
Why does it needs to end..
@croix89 It's okay, Codfish6677 posted them. Thanks anyway.
inter.funda.stifle = the name of the album
An abreviation of the album name, duh.
You have no excuse because of the explanation comment below you.
I agree with this band being overlooked but PT and opeth arent really. They are popular with progressive music fans and opeth is also popular with metal fans.
i think porcupine tree and fair to midland are bands that people could get into pretty easily if they tried. Opeth is harder to get into though.
Because compared to this, Say When is an embarrassment.
what??
This band pretty much ruined me for all other music.
