Tracks that end an album
De_El:
"Anthrax," at the end ofEntertainment!, is pretty good. It kind of takes the piss out of itself with the flat delivery of the vocals and repetitive bassline with no melody. The drums march insistently but don't really go anywhere and after some feedback noodling the song's just sort of over. You're almost left holding your breath for nothing and it fits the album's tone really well.

RedLion:
The End - The Doors. After a great but rather poppy album, this closes the band's first outing on a dark, brooding, haunting note that really exemplifies everything that Morrison was about.
Isolation Years - From the Opeth album Ghost Reveries. Quiet, fairly simple, and eerie. After the sonic onslaught that most of the rest of the album is, it's unexpected and is a perfect ending track.
My favorite of all time, though, is without a doubt
Jungleland - Bruce Springsteen, Born to Run. Absolutely amazing, moving, earth-shaking song. The howls at the end send shivers down my spine every time.
Nuance:
The first track to spring to mind for me was Radiohead's "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" off of the Bends. Other tracks that are on the list for me would be:
Glassjaw - Motel of the White Locust off of Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Silence
Mewithoutyou - In a Sweater Poorly Knit off of Brother, Sister
Sigur Ros - Track 8 off of ()
Dredg - The Canyon Behind Her off of El Cielo
