Anyway, I was wondering about some music related quandaries - such as, what music's emanatin' from ya'll's music-playin' contraptions and whatnot.
(And just so this is slightly on-topic, feel free to discuss one's favorite game music.)
Right now Blondie's in my CD player. I'm hesistant to get any file sharing programs for my laptop (not so much for the OMG ILLEGAL aspect as the viruses and all that bullshit I really don't want to deal with), so I've been listening to CDs more. Sonic Youth (saw them live this summer), Reggie and the Full Effect, Zolof the Rock and Roll Destroyer, The Killers...I had a friend burn me a lot of CDs before I left for college. I listen to basically a little of everything, but of course I have my favorites. I think my "specialties" are girl-fronted bands and 70s rock.
On a semi-related tangent (because they did play Blondie there), I saw Rupaul live at Cornell. That was an experience. Just thought I'd share.
I recently had the opportunity to listen to some of the KOF arranged soundtracks, and I'm impressed. There's a lot of things they added to the original tracks that come off very well.
And the Guilty Gear soundtracks are quite nice. I hated the Korean #Reload songs at first, but some are actually better than the originals (I'm thinking about Millia's in particular).

I started the month with the songs of Avenue Q, because the Internet is for porn.
Then, I forced myself to listen a bit more to Medulla, Bjork's latest failure experimental album, and after a few dozen times, I managed to like half of the songs quite much, so it's better.
And something of another style, I just got the CD of ZEN, the opening thema of Otougizôshi, with another interesting version of the song, plus another really good track, and I like it.
And lastly, I bought Brigitte Fontaine's last album, brilliant as always, plus some duo of Zazie with some guy, an extremely cruel song called "je ne t'aime pas". I know it's queer, but this particular song is very well written and evil and cruel.
And I still listen to Vespertine and the maxi CD of All is Full of Love on a daily basis.

That just reminds me of how an ex of mine up here at school is all into Bjork out of nowhere. Is it a requirement or something now? Did I miss a memo?
I'm not insulting you at all, dear Iggy. Mostly just venting about other people. Then again, perhaps I can be a little obnoxious about it because my sister got me into Bjork at a very young age. But probably not.

It's also for this.
(The odd thing is, I'm going to have a B.A. in English at some point.)

What'd you think of Rahzel? Also, has Bjork ever done an album that wasn't a failed experiment bold new stroke upon the canvas of life?

Ah.

I'm not sure I get the subtile undertext, so I'll just say... well, I like some of the songs of her first 3 albums, many of her videos, felt in love with All is full of Love, then loved Vespertine to death, and some of the songs of Medulla. I just love the sound, the words, etc. But while I can unleash a horde of Gyakuten Saiban characters upon everyone who don't like the recent episodes of Berserk, I can't really do this for Bjork. I know it's not conventional pop thing that you can hear on the radio or anything, and some people like it, some don't. Oh well.

I don't know Rahzel... And while Vespertine was a great album, with a strong directive line and all, and Medulla also has such a concept (but she failed to achieve it), her first 3 albums are quite normal, I think ? I mean, they are average albums with several separate songs that can be liked or not, some fast, some slow... No ?
quote:
Ah.
Who is this, and what are they doing?
The band is called Attack Haus and... I'm totally ignorant in music- related vocabulary. I think I can say it's hard rock ? And it's japanese, but it manages to be really good. Surprise.

How true, how true.

Yes, that's all I have to say.

He's on Medulla. Human beatbox.

Does it utilize a lot of weird electronic beats and such? If it does, since it's got a semi-German name, then you could probably call it industrial.
