Rolling Stones - Paint it Black

This song continues to justify their existence to me.

WoW - Bronze Jam

I... what... the whole of Icecrown music tracks is just so... Normally I don't care but seriously, these tracks are goddamn weird.

Anyone actually listens to WoW music? Raid music even?

I only did it because someone I knew mentioned it.

Owl City - Hot Air Balloon

Indie synthpop electronica of sorts. C'mon, I KNOW you gu-*shot*

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #1407 on:** November 13, 2009, 10:05:51 PM »

You're pimping random metal stuff at the DL. I think most here are more likely to pick up STDs from cartwheeling into the ocean than to actually check those things out. Ask Grefter's opinion about the DL and music if you want to see mad australian rants. >_>

(I personally won't ever even give a minute of my day to check it out, but I -loathe- prog rock and metal with all my midgety might. <_<)

(EDIT: I know you're kidding, kinda! Just I feel the nagging need to point out the glaringly obvious sometimes)

Echo & the Bunnymen - Silver

I'm fine with metal up to a certain point. When I really tune out is when I hear that guttural roaring that death metal bands do instead of singing. I hate that sound.

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #1409 on:** November 13, 2009, 10:18:10 PM »

I also sorta wanted to nag that it's not just metal that receives the apathy from the DL, generally. Music sorta isn't one of the group's DL nerdery focus areas.

ThePiggyman · « **Reply #1410 on:** November 13, 2009, 10:25:05 PM »

Oh, no worries, I understand completely. I don't mean to try and push my taste in music onto any of you (lord knows -my- taste in music is about incomprehensible as they come). I was just sarcastically pointing out that fact myself by bringing them up, because what I DO know is that you guys would likely never look this stuff up anyways. ;p

Hehe, in fact, I'd be shocked myself if I brought -any- of you to listen to the clusterfuck that is my music. ^^;

Jo'ou Ranbu · « **Reply #1411 on:** November 13, 2009, 10:35:49 PM »

You never know, though. I mean, Grefter's hype -eventually- got me listening to some of the stuff he pimps, but then, Grefter's ecletic enough to dabble in almost everything and he figured out my musical biases by this point.

R.E.M. - Old Man Kensey

EDIT:

Eurythmics - Never Gonna Cry Again

Electric Six - Danger! High Voltage

Giving E6 a listen, but not too terribly impressed so far.

I think that goes for just about any song here? I can't imagine someone looking up each and every song posted.

Grefter · « **Reply #1415 on:** November 14, 2009, 01:58:14 AM »

It would be fine if you people didn't hear a piece of background music constructed entirely on synthesizer and bust a nut about how it is BEST SONG EVER while I am here busy trying to find the latest thing to involve someone playing hand made instruments built out of power tools. The horizon is just so big and you never even see it.

There is room for a man and his synthesizer to make music, but when they are just emulating a 5 piece String group with it I fail to be excited. I would rather a spectrograph image of the artists face encoded into tones (This is an actual song). Or shit even something as simple as Pi to a billion decimal places with an individual tone for each digit was more interesting than most video game music. I need to find that website again.

That said, corrupting individuals with your music works much better than widespread approach. Some of them even do you proud and spread it around themselves or start to find stuff for you.

Between the Buried and Me - Bicycle Race.

Electric Six - Jimmy Carter

Alright, it's definately picking up.

Grefter · « **Reply #1417 on:** November 14, 2009, 02:50:06 AM »

Yeah they are like that Gate. They get better as you get further into their career I find, but you really need to have listened to the older stuff to really get some of the stuff off their album before this new one. (Flashy is chock full of callbacks to the first few albums on the first track on it)

superaielman · « **Reply #1418 on:** November 14, 2009, 03:04:56 AM »

There are several hard rock/metal fans here, Piggy.

SSH- Zeromus's battle theme (Remix)

Grefter · « **Reply #1419 on:** November 14, 2009, 03:19:40 AM »

DL has trend towards a strong distaste for GRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL though which is a common occurrence in some of the stuff Piggy has put up here >_> It is a shame that the genre is trying so hard to be accessible these days amongst newer groups that are doing some really cool stuff instrumentally. More than one or two that are in the In Flames mold of interesting but need to be able to handle growl.

Between the Buried and Me - More of Myself to Kill.

Edit - This is pretty much a textbook example. Start of the song is ROOOOOOOOAAAAARRRRRRRRR and then you hit the middle and it is the kind of thing that everyone can handle, it is like Opeth mated Damnation with the rest of their stuff (Pro Tip - Damnation is their best album by far and you should have it).

Edit - Whoops accidentally said Deliverance when I meant Damnation, big difference in the kinds of albums they are.

Delerium - Euphoria (Firefly)

And most of what you mentioned two posts prev. sounds cool, Grefter, even if I don't know I'd get into it in practice.

* Taitoro doesn't... mind GROOOOOWL but eh, can't take songs full of it.

ThePiggyman · « **Reply #1421 on:** November 14, 2009, 04:48:46 AM »

Well, I'll admit, the whole growling/gutteral vocals thing is an acquired taste. But don't get me wrong, metal isn't all I listen to. My library is extensive and eclectic, and I'm -more- than certain I could find a band for each and every one of you to fall in love with. ;p

Evergreen Terrace - Chaney Can't Quite Riff Like Helmet's Page Hamilton

The way the band sings in unison at the beginning is pretty intense.

Grefter · « **Reply #1422 on:** November 14, 2009, 06:10:29 AM »

Sure I can do the growl when I feel like it, but it is utterly repulsive when it isn't what you are after and it honestly is not what the majority of people are after.

Between the Buried and Me - Ad a Dlgmut

The Eagles - Journey of the Sorcerer

Grefter · « **Reply #1424 on:** November 14, 2009, 06:17:14 AM »

On the other hand you have people like THAT who enjoy music to tacky you can almost taste the glitter and sequins.

Toto - Africa.
