It's actually the same riff/melody as the mid-section so, no, it's not a transition, it's a coda that's a repetition of a previously featured melody. The next (read:last) song starts like pure old shcool swedish death metal worship almost immediately...

The thing is that about half of Bram Tchaikovsky's songs were boogie-rock/pub-rock songs so when they actually wrote "pop"-songs (like 30-40% of their material) it was almost an afterthought. Maybe that has coloured my opinion on their songs but really, I think their pop-songs were dope as fuck and actually influential as way (honestly, I used this thread to prop them up) but they are not a great band as a whle; the debut is good but the next album has FAR too much pub-rock...

It's the same thing with the Motors: You might know (and dig) this track:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKvFhnvFcls but a large portion of their albums were just pure pub-rock...
