The songbook splits the chord into a suspension and resolution - Gmsus4 and Gm - but it's more complicated. The Gm-chord is held throughout. In the right channel a synth-string line begins on the 4th and descends through the major 3rd, minor 3rd and 2nd - C B B- flat A to G. This could be a written part or merely a slow glissando, nevertheless it creates some extreme dissonance. In the left channel the major 3rd (B-natural) is briefly audible midway through the duration. This latter effect also occurs on the original orchestral version which doesn't have the descending line. Both are spooky and sick! > There is one chord on the Hope album that has always disturbed me. > So much so > that it almost reminds me of someone puking. It`s at 4:56 on Long Live > Politzania.
