Techn9ne - "The Beast"

Oh yeah.

[Abominator]

Excellent song, although I think I prefer the overly censored lyrics version of it since I heard that first.

[ASR]

Haha, I was listening to Techn9ne for the first time in about a month the other day. I think my favorites of his are Jellysickle and 'Bout to Bubble.
I have Abe's radio to thank for getting me into him.

[Mikero]

Excellent song, although I think I prefer the overly censored lyrics version of it since I heard that first.

No idea which one I have, I'll have to check.

Tech N9ne - "Wheaties". From the new album, I believe.

[Abominator]

Good.

Tech N9ne - "Wheaties". From the new album, I believe.

Horrible.

[Mikero]

Better than other rappers right now. But yeah, not even close to good from him, and it's pretty by numbers.

On my current electronic kick I'm into remixes by my favourite electro artists. This is pretty sick;
Justice, Daft Punk, A-Trak, and Kanye West - "Fortisphere" by Immuzikation Blend

[Vinchenz Rock]

I'm listening to Another Way to Die. It's the opening theme for Quantum of Solace.

Is it weird that I prefer the game's opening theme a lot more? >_>

[Mikero]

It's not weird, since "Another Way To Die" sucks.

OH also, I absolutely cannot #####ing wait for this album, and subsequent tour.

The Prodigy.
(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

[von Teelio]

Prodigy. Gotta love 'em.

Currently listening in-and-out of Celldweller's "Soundtrack for the Voices in My Head Vol. 1". Tracks mostly sound the same and makes me wonder if it was made especially for goth teens getting #####ed up on some drugs.

As a long-time fan of Celldweller, I was most unhappy.

[Fatso]

The Eagles - Wasted Time

Always thought it was a great song, but for whatever reason over the last couple of days it's become my number-one favourite song ever.

[AlexThePenguin]

Lazlo Bane -- Superman

Scrubs. :3

[von Teelio]

Birthright by Celldweller.

Bada ba ba baaaa, I'm luvin' it.

[ASR]

Eminence Front - The Who

Can't get that tune outta' my head. Such a great vibe.

[Fatso]

I used to really not like that song, but it's grown a bit on me.



The Eagles - The Last Resort

Waaaay too beautiful to be the product of any human mind.

[Johncarllos]

Eminence Front - The Who

Can't get that tune outta' my head. Such a great vibe.

Funny, playing off the other topic,
"People forget..."

[preventerWIND]

Urghk!...

I am, for reasons unknown, listening to some cover of Don't Open 'Til Doomsday by the Misfits. Covered by some talentless Japanese band called Ballsack or some bull#####, they truly are balls, their English is so crippled to the extent that I'd rather have my shins kicked in by a horse than listen to this ridiculous cover.

[Mikero]

Since a half an hour ago last night, I have definitely developed a celeb-crush on Lights.
Musically, I'm not really decided on her. It's stuff I don't mind listening to but if it's all that same pace then I don't know if I could listen to it all the time, still I like what I've heard enough. But whatever that doesn't matter, I have a crush on the girl herself. Aaahhh, Lights.

[Fatso]

Boomtown Rats - I Don't Like Mondays

Such a silly song unless you think too hard about it. Then it just becomes depressing.

[AlexThePenguin]

Disturbed -- Land of Confusion

I finally got the Ten Thousand Fists album. I'm very pleased.

[Mikero]

Two albums ago much?!

Good cover. I find it so weird to hear the original song now.

[Yubi Shines]

A nerd band called the Ex Box Boys did a song for Braid called "Counting You Up."

It's eaten my soul.

(It's the first song that plays on the website, which is SO ANNOYING IN A SITE DESIGN, but anyway. If not, you can find it in the music section or something.)

[AlexThePenguin]

Two albums ago much?!

Hey, now. I'm feckbroke, and I don't listen to the radio enough to know who's on how many albums and when. I've been looking to get Ten Thousand Fists for a while.

[Mikero]

I'm actually jealous because I love that album (well I love all their albums) and it would be cool to have that first time experience with it again.

Plus, you get to check out Indestructible later. And it's also quite good.

[ASR]

I know, I know. Banjo-Kazooie music. But seriously. Click and listen. This is a videogame music masterpiece.

And this is from the level Banjoland, which is a museum of all the old Banjo levels. This arrangement will blow you away with nostalgia. When I first heard the Freezeezy Peak bit, I almost cried with joy.

[ChaosVortex]

I can't really tell which stages are what, I haven't played the game in a long time....

But I can tell Freezeezy Peak, Gobi Desert, and the haunted mansion level so far...

Posted on: 22 November 2008, 14:13:18

I think I hear that one level with the ship, cruddy water, and that shark from the second world from BK. Forgot the name of that level.

Posted on: 22 November 2008, 14:16:27

I think I'm hearing Battle Music in that credits theme...

I loved all the battle themes in BK. THIS EXCITES ME.

[Captain Sanoguchi]

Oh god! Cloud Cuckooland!
...I need a 360...

[Fatso]

Like I said, Kirkhope is a god, right up there with David Wise and all the other legendary video game composers.

[ASR]

I heard that this was his last game. What a shame.

[Fatso]

It's his last project with Rare, anyway. Whether he goes on to compose for other games I don't know yet, but his career is far from over.

[Mikero]

Excellent song, although I think I prefer the overly censored lyrics version of it since I heard that first.

Upon further inspection I completely agree. Heard it first too, but I think it's just lyrically better. More clever and skillful, really.

[Fatso]

Harry Chapin - W*O*L*D

[Yubi Shines]

Alternating between MC Frontalot's Nerdcore Rising, and the "We Are Sailor Scouts" .spc from the Sailor Moon RPG.

I don't know why.

EDIT:
Depeche Mode- Waiting For The Night. I need mellow music now. Mellllloooow.

[Mikero]

Listen to some Hawksley Workman.

I would, but right now it'd make me sad, so you can do it for me!

[MOX]

Bauhaus - "Dark Entries"

[ASR]

I can't tell if
I like the music videos
or the actual music better.

BUT THESE ARE SO MUCH FUN.

Listening to Girl Talk. It's on random.

But yeah, it's notable since he just made Soulja Boy sound cool in the track I'm listening to.

[Mikero]

It's on random.

You know, this one time a couple years ago I was driving in my old car and "Don't Stop Me Now" came on the CD right as friends and I were talking about Shaun Of The Dead, and then I said something like "Haha I don't know how that happened, it's on random" without realizing what I'd just said, and then we all had a laugh. Good day.

[ASR]

I'm cursed with the knowledge of so many obscure lines and yet the people I hang out with never notice any of them.

This is why I have MMM.

But yeah, if you guys haven't listened to Girl Talk, he's awesome. It's pretty much the perfect music to leave playing at house parties, by the way. I hijacked the speakers with my iPod at the last one I went to and left Girl Talk's "Feed the Animal" 50-minute album on a loop all night and everyone thought it was just never-ending.

[Fatso]

Dr. Hook - Carry Me, Carrie

[Captain Sanoguchi]

The Blanks - Underdog

You might also know them as The Worthless Peons.

[Yubi Shines]

Julia Ecklar - The Hand of God


Damn it, this is exactly the kind of singing voice I'd strangle puppies to have.

[Mikero]

Kardinal Offishall feat. Rhianna - "Numba 1 (Tide Is High)"

[ASR]

"In The End" - Linkin Park

It is eternally frozen in my mind now, since I spent the last two days rewriting my own version to the same tune for the finale of the mini-series I'm writing.

Posted on: 26 December 2008, 21:18:55

Okay, so... finally got around to listening to Kanye's new album.

I can't decide if I like it or not. A few more full listens and I'll definitely have an answer. I do like Love Lockdown a lot though, but I've heard it before... which generally has to do with how I like music: if I'm exposed to it a lot, it's easier for me to tell if I like it or not.

So, like I said, a few more listens and I'll have a better judgement.

I also downloaded the Viva La Vida Coldplay album for my brother since he really wanted it, and just tossed it on my iPod anyway since it was there. I do like the song Viva La Vida, and there's a song called 42 so obviously that made me smile, but I've never really been big on Coldplay and I can't really get into it.

Lastly, I listened to that new live Linkin Park album, Road to Revolution: Live at Milton Keyes.
A GREAT set-list, pretty much all of their very-best stuff live. I love when the crowd sings verses in live albums/shows, and they do that a lot in this one, so that was fun. I don't know, that sort of thing gets me pumped. Plus, they bring out Jay-Z at the end for two songs and that was pretty badass.

[Fatso]

Crosby, Stills & Nash - Suite: Judy Blue Eyes

I've been hunting this song down for AGES, but didn't know the title :S

[AlexThePenguin]

HIM -- Rendezvous with Anus (cover)
____

David Bowie and Freddie Mercury -- Under Pressure

[Johncarllos]

The Way-  Fastball.


And damnit I had that Tokio Hotel song 'Monsoon' stuck in my head all day.

That dude does NOT sound like a dude.

[Fatso]

Meat Loaf - Anything For Love

I blame Mike.

[Johncarllos]

You should.

[Mikero]

Oh
    no
       no
I won't dooooo
                     that.

[Majikn]

Separate Ways (World Apart)

By Journey.

I heard the cover by Andre Matos first, which I think is a GOOD cover, but the original just somehow has that much more feeling.

[MOX]

Ima Robot - "Creeps Me Out"

aarhghghg new catchy song
