The vocalist throughout this increases not just the volume of his voice but also the agitation of it, which helps to increase tension. Each one of these changes in instrumentation also has a very slight rise in dynamic. The drums just have a soft bass drum on one and three and soft snare drum on two and four. The guitar part has the same basic rhythm but just doing single notes and the bass also does the eighth notes but with strong emphasis on the downbeats and the pick up to the downbeat. The first sign of the crecendo is when the drums and bass are added. The song starts out with the "fooling around" warm up period that is really soft before the main guitar melody, which is just a repetitive chord structure in eighth notes with a little syncopation by holding over beat 3. There's also a couple of neat dramatic effects. I chose this song today because of the effective crecendo it has throughout the song from no sound to a pure wall of sound, which is really needed because the song consists of one really long repeating verse and then a chorus at the end.
