Title: What do you listen to?
Post by: TERRORsphere on November 10, 2010, 02:46:11 PM
Rules: Please, a maximum of 2 Youtube vids per post. I don't want this to turn into a thread full of 10,000 spoilers full of videos I won't watch. If it's 2 YT vids then I'll actually listen to them.

This is not the thread of Video game music.




I'll post 2 tracks I simply can't get enough of:

Forgotton Moments (Ophidian's Remix)
(click to show/hide)

Avenged Sevenfold - Nightmare
(click to show/hide)



These two songs... are just amazing, shame everyone else in my area listens to only Rap, Dance and Pop. I listen to everything but Rap, Dance and Pop  :ugeek:


I have to also give a shout-out to Jimmy Eat World. This band is one of my very favourites out of ALL the bands there was and is.

Videogame music or remixes of videogame music because I'm sad :(

I don't like any of this new music though, if I'm gonna listen to anything but videogame music it'll probably be late 80s to early 00s.

Damn. Two videos sure restricts you. But I see where you're coming from here.

Here's some recent stuff I've been listening to (current faves, if you will):

But bands are oh so overlooked. I can understand why the second one is -- unserious as all hell, although that's all a part of its charm, in my opinion -- but Allegaeon are freakin' grade A technical death metal (with plenty of melodic death metal in there as well). If you like this sort of stuff, I doubt you'll dislike it. Extremely melodic, yet heavy as hell.

Offtopic: Do you really had to make such a Thread here? it turned out bad in the ST forums since everyone post crap only to raise their post count and no one actually cared what people are listening to..
Title: Re: What do you listen to?
Post by: Vyreman on November 10, 2010, 05:42:35 PM
So no one here could possibly care? Music is one of my main interests. I love talking about it, and I would love to know what everyone listens to.

In Skulltag, it's post a song name. Full stop.

In this topic, we may actually discuss music.

I limit the amount of songs because I'm going to ignore a massive post full of 500 songs.


It's also a great way to learn new bands/artists through other people.

As long as the song is melodic and not just one endless guitar riff over and over, I'm listening to it.

Also, I don't like obscene lyrics, and I absolutely hate it when the vocals of a song are growling or screaming.  So that counts out most metal.

Mostly Game OSTs to be honest.

Oh yeah, you'll need a good sound system to enjoy this. I'm using Logitech Z-4 speakers.

Angerfist and Ophidian are my favourite artists when it comes to Hardcore. They are not the only good artists however...

I agree with Namo on the singing. The singing makes or breaks a song. You could have excellent instrumentals, but the singing will either seal it in gold, or stick out like a sore thumb.

I'm a huge fan of rock and metal, even some dance music (not so much anymore) and classical... I like many types. I am a huge Queen fan, but I thought I'd post some songs from bands that are lesser known.

Take note, I got into these bands more recently. Even though I was alive when these songs came out, I was too little to know them (they weren't mainstream after all).

Oh, right!
I'd post my favorite songs, but I don't really want to clog this thread up with too many villain songs.
Instead I'll post these two:

Arguably the best villain song ever. Plus, it came from a Disney movie.

This one was just dying to be posted.

Kind of contradictory. A lot of metal is VERY melodic, so by your first statement, you should be able to listen to a lot of metal with growling and screaming. Melodic death metal obviously has screaming, and that's very melodic. Certainly not just the same guitar riff over and over, although some have that. And then there's Ensiferum and the like, mixing the genre with power metal to make it even more melodic. Children of Bodom also fits that category, although they suck now.

Anyway, that second statement is pretty ignorant. There's more metal bands than I could possibly count that do NOT utilize screamed or growled vocals, nor have particularly "obscene" lyrics. I think you're looking in the wrong places. Hell, I know you are. But I guess if you're not a fan you might just have heard the more mainstream of "metal" bands, like Slipknot. Ugh. But I wouldn't know, I guess. You might have heard a lot of it.


As you may or may not be able to tell, I'm a metalhead. And one of the reasons I like metal, especially some of the modern bands (1990 and forward), is because a lot of it has focus on melody. That's not to say I don't love the other aspects though, of course. I love the heaviness and speed of it as well. And I do listen to regular death metal from time to time, which it sounds like you're talking about here. I can agree that that's without much melody, and it's almost always obscene. But I like that too. The aggression of it appeals to me. Either it makes me calm, or it makes me want to bang my head against a wall out of pure awesome -- but it never gets me in a bad mood. I like some thrash as well. Bah, I like it all. From traditional metal to symphonic metal, from alternative metal to death metal, from progressive metal to...gee, I don't know. From the rhythm-focused to the ones full of melody. I'm fine with all of it. And on that note, there are luckily MANY bands that mixes several metal genres, to bring me both the melody I love and the aggression. One of these are Opeth. Hell, they even throw some progressive rock in there.

I recognize all except The Megas, and I'm sure EVERYONE recognizes Queen and Daft Punk. Both popular as all hell.

Anyway, as making LISTS seem to be very popular, I'm gonna do the same. Only that will do justice to the music I like. So... Not in any particular order:

(click to show/hide)

Some I listen to all the time, others from time to time. Some are recent favorites, some are long-term ones.

I'm sure only a fellow metalhead will realize the diversity of this list.

If anyone have more traditional metal, NWOBHM, power metal, or speed metal to recommend me, go right ahead! I love these genres but I just don't know many bands within them (strangely).

This ain't a dead topic right? Besides, I'm allowed to bump it as I'm the op right?...
Anyway......



(click to show/hide)
This track is just true old school drum 'n bass. Way before Pendulum changed the grimy Drum 'n Bass genre into dance (which I'm ok with). The artist somehow captured so much energy into sound and after 11 years, uploaded it to youtube.

"I didn't want to go to heaven anyway!" Amazing tune right here. I would just say "raise your fist, for Angerfist" but c'mon, Dyprax needs some serious credit right here.

Considering that was the point of the competition, that means DTD won.  That would be like saying in soccer/football "You only won because you scored more goals than I did."
