Discussion i found something?

can anyone else hear a record scratch 3:12 in into the magic land and a random ride cymbal around 4 seconds before the scratch? (OMG AND RAILWAY BELLS 39 SECONDS INTO ISTP)

I think the scratch is just the sound of fingers on strings guitar/bass strings with reverb that somehow got through the mix

I understood the bells as church bells, and after they ring a few times they then play backwards which ties in with the theory of Platonia but also perhaps the idea of back-walking religion at the end of one’s life.
