DrPhil2501 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I'm generally a RATM person, but I'm starting to get into Beck (... you know.... the guy who guest stared on Futurama? <sigh>) His stuff is actually pretty good, even though he uses strange sounds for his music.

Sabretooth Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Feeling nostalgic, I've been going through some music from old games. I found the remastered version of Deus Ex's soundtrack (which I hold to be the best video game soundtrack ever, followed by Golden Sun - yes, that GBA game). Right now it's the DuClare Chateau track, from the respectable Alexander Brandon. Not one of my favourites, but hell, nostalgia bites. The ones I really like from Deus Ex are the main theme, the intro, UNATCO, Begin the End (Beginning of the End?), and then some. Its really the best soundtrack for any video game ever (then again, Deus Ex had the awesomest stuff ever in other departments as well). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 DRINK IT DOWN by L'Arc~en~Ciel This new single is used for the main theme of DMC4, and it was a good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanius Anglesmith Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Mein Herz Brennt - Rammstein I love this song. It's my favorite from Rammstein... okay, so I haven't listened to much from them yet, but it's my favorite so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Mein Herz Brennt - Rammstein I love this song. It's my favorite from Rammstein... okay, so I haven't listened to much from them yet, but it's my favorite so far. Check out Keine Lust and Benzin. Those are good songs, mate.

Da_man Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Jordan by Buckethead, kinda funkly little pice of...something, with that (in)famous solo that anyone who has play GH2 knows. Know Your Enemy by Rage Against The Machine, again a little funky thing with a good riff. Two Minutes To Midnight by Iron Maiden, awesome guitar part, classic Iron Maiden. Back In Black by AC/DC, 'nuff said Dragonforce are Insane!! Nice to meet another DragonForce Fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeiamyourdad Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Love is goooonnnne. Europe has some good DJs eh. Oooh and for those who don't know... Operation Ground and Pound by Dragonforce Not their best IMO, but the first I heard Don't ask questions about their lyrics or anything, power metal should not be taken too seriously.

Da_man Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 Not their best IMO, but the first I heard Don't ask questions about their lyrics or anything, power metal should not be taken too seriously. I prefer "Black Fire" off their first album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 All of DragonForce's songs sound the same to me. Though, I don't mind them. I've been adding a ton of tunes. But one of my favs would have to be "What is Love?" by Haddaway. Gawd, I wish I could remember all those other songs from a decade ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astrotoy7 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 J.S. Bach - Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 in F major > Concertino: trumpet in F, recorder, oboe, violin Ripieno: two violins, viola, violone, and basso continuo (including harpsichord). There is a very good reason Carl Sagan chose this(1st Allegro) as Track 1. on The Voyager Satellite's Golden Record, representing the music of the peoples of earth. It is quite simply the most perfectly metered countrepoint piece of music ever written. Over the years, Ive played it to many friends who are not classical music fans, and its effect is instant. Not the clamour of Beethoven, or twiddly melodrama of Mozart, Bach's music is an example of the greatness and beauty humanity can strive for...quite fitting that his music ended up on Voyager IMO. mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tk102 Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 ^^ My favorite concerto. I think Johann was in a very good mood when he wrote that. Somewhat odd but entertaining Youtube link of the 1st movement: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Blaze Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I really should have read the rules before posting here last night... Anyway, now I am listening to T.V. Eye by The Stooges. A classic protopunk track from the equally classic Fun House album. While musically and lyrically rather simplistic, it's brought to life by Iggy Pop's vocals and Ron Asheton's excellent guitar work. Now it changed into 1970 from the same album (I skipped "Dirt" even though it's a nice song as well). Once again a track based on a couple of simple riffs, but about halfway through the song Steve MacKay's saxophone creeps in from out of nowhere causing the rest of the album to go into psychedelic hyper mode. And since I'm taking forever to post this, the title track of Fun House started playing. This song has a nice funky vibe to it, and Iggy sounds as maniacal as ever.

Serpentine Cougar Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Listening to Falling Up. They've got an interesting sound, kind of a mix of different things. Piano, strings, guitars, singing, a little rap, some techno-ish sounds mixed in...an interesting blend. Plus they just have an interesting name.

MasterWaffle Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 These days I've been on a bit of a music blitz, but Imogen Heap stands out. She is a very talented techno singer/songwriter who's got a bit of Feist in her. Very interesting sound, to be sure! If you're a fan of the Dear Sister parody on SNL, you've probably heard her before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeDoe 2.0 Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 All the Small things by Blink-182 I like the music video of this song, one of the funniest band around, too bad that was a long time ago Eruption by Van Halen One of the coolest guitar solo ever IMO Breathe into Me by Red Heard it over a friend's house, liked it and bought it, worth the .99 fee from iTunes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamqd Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Eruption by Van Halen One of the coolest guitar solo evr IMO IMO too! Good choice amigo, check some of the live versions on Youtube. Iron Maiden: Killers, the first A+ album from the Irons and still in the top 3 IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Rider Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Irving Jacobson - Man of La Mancha(I, Don Quixote) I'm rather addicted to this song after seeing an AMV done to it. If you didn't guess or don't know, it's from the play: Man of La Mancha, it's about Don Quixote. This track is sung by Jacobson, and he has a wonderful voice, the part with Pancho is some of the most grating noise you'll ever hear though. Besides that, it's aboslute awesome, a great song to get stuck in your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negative Sun Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 On my phone atm: Black Sabbath - Heaven and Hell Best Sabbath album ever and one of the best Rock/Metal albums ever too, Ronnie James >>> Ozzy Dio - The Very Beast of Dio Awesome Dio compilation! Iron Maiden - Best of the Beast (2 CDs) What more can I say? Pure classic metal! Killswitch Engage - The End of Heartache/As Daylight Dies Damn good albums again, one of the pioneering bands of metalcore and Howard Jones is still an awesome vocalist. Lynard Skynard - Vicious Cycle Again, a masterpiece of an album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commander Obi-Wan Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Another member introduced me to Alestorm. It is "true Scottish Pirate Metal". It is similar to Dragonforce except better IMO. There are a bunch of videos just playing the music. Just check some of them out. Link. I recommend "Captain Morgan's Revenge" and "Over the Seas".

tk102 Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 I am at work on the weekend and with no one around, I have Conan the Barbarian Original Soundtrack playing "Ridddle of Steel / Riders of Doom" by Basil Poledouris. That's the part when little Conan's village gets sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Holy snap! I just heard this song by the Low Fidelity All Stars, and it's great! <3 Battleflag Uncensored Version (but not the official video) Wow, bringing back the old skool. Makes me nostalgic for the bad old days of rattling other people's cars with my subs PS: They suck live EDIT: If you liked that, another song from about the same period that you might enjoy...and they are much better live.
