It almost sounds like some kind of proto doom metal to my ears, which was surprising but very cool.

The end of She's So Heavy is what it's all about. I wanted to show you this video because it really added a new dimension to the song, whether the Beatles ever intended this meaning is up for debate...See if this does anything for you:
Also did you catch the Maxwell's animated video I posted in this thread the other day? I think it's at the bottom of page one or two...
