Listen to the song from the user above you!

Heya! Figured I'd start up a thread like this as I abolsutely love finding various music, and noticed there isn't a thread for this here yet! Plus, thinking on it, a good few of my OCs are inspired by some songs and music in general, and it never hurts to be on the hunt for more music to check out!


 

Basic Rules:

1. The person above you will link you a song to listen to!

2. Give your thoughts on it - is it something you liked, or is it just not your cup of tea? Did it inspire you to make an OC on the fly? Feel free to express this as much or as little as you want! (Please be respectful and civil in your reply, though.)

3. In the same post, link a song for the next person to listen to!

[edit] 4. If you're next in line, please claim before going ahead; I totally missed out due to IRL things going on, I realize some people might of been Ninja'd! So let's try to avoid being ninja'd from now on <:"D


EDIT; PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING: Heya! I've gotten a few concerns from people that go through this thread that some may of been a bit disrespectful about one's tastes in music. Music is something it's obvious not everyone is going to like the same thing, but I must remind you to PLEASE, be respectful to the person above you when having shared music. If it isn't your thing, please be kind and simply say "It wasn't my cup of tea, sorry. I'm glad you like it though!" or something nice along those lines. Having someone be told the song you chose (which might even mean a lot to you on your own terms and reasons behind it) is horrible or nasty, can be a bit rude. Let's do our best to keep polite and civil here while we all jam out to some awesome tunes! Thanks!


All good? Let's get started! I'll link over a song for the first person to start things off!

First song: The Maddest Kind of Love, by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy

BewareOfTheMenace

I haven't listen to Soundgarden for a long time so now's my time to shine about them. Although Badmotorfinger is my favorite from the band itself, Superunknown have some decent songs too so lemme listen to Limo Wreck.

The intro kinda sounds pretty strange yet hypnotic, and some of the guitar sounds are a bit off-putting but I love it by the way. Then the breakdown begins and I love the heavy metal grungy sounds that makes the band so iconic. The vocal from Chris Cornell is so amazing too, RIP him tho.

Whaddaya know? I love the song already.


NP: Here's a soundtrack playlist for my boring and mediocre slice-of-life high school story project The Kids Are Alright. Most of them sounds like something you heard from a cartoon or film that set place in high school so enjoy.

lil_is_dum

went with 'i've wasted so much time' by enjoy! i don't normally listen to the kinda music in the playlist you linked but i thought i've wasted so much time was quite nice ^^ i really like the melody, its repetitive but like. in a good way? if that makes sense? and the vocals are really nice as well! i also really like the reverb effect the song has, just the cherry on top that makes it really pleasant to listen to

the song feels pretty nostalgic to me, kinda reminds me of some of the music my dad listens to lol. even though i don't listen to them much i'm kinda a sucker for these kinda bittersweet-ish songs so maybe im a bit biased but i like this song! i think it fits with the vibe of the playlist really well :D

def gonna be adding it to a couple of my playlists :3

np: would love to hear ur thoughts on devil's wedding by fake type!

Fairhare

Oh, very interesting beat and singing! I was a bit taken by surprised that they’re signing in Japanese since I wasn’t expecting it based on the aesthetics, but I like it. Feels a bit halloweeny to me thanks to the beat and melody. It’s a pretty interesting composition, and the way it starting ramping up near the end was pretty interesting. 

I like it, over all. It’s not bad! I‘ll keep it saved, but because it’s not the sort of thing I typically end up listening to, I probably won’t add it to a playlist.


For the next person, Tu Eres by Selena! Or if you already know that one, Anoche me enamoré by Los Apson!

I listened to El Dorado

I'm not usually a fan of this genre of music, but I really enjoyed watching the live performance of the artists without any autotune or alterations. In the video, the melody was fantastic and gave off a vibe that would be perfect for a chase scene in a movie. I particularly loved the way the artist sang the "El Dorado" part, it was so smooth and perfectly in tune.

Np: Either All around the world by miss luxary or Guadalupe Pineda - Historia De Un Amor , both are not that long and u don't have to listen all the way! ^^

I listened to All Around The World and was kinda surprised that I've heard the song already !!! :D I've only ever listened to the nightcore version of it, so it was a pleasant experience to hear the original version (I'm assuming that this is the og one and not a cover lol). This song reminds me of getting home at 3am after a late night out. A very fun song !!! Ty for sharing it :D 

Np: Wouldn't Mama Be Proud by Elliott Smith

montrovy

Not my usual style! But I'm not complaining - very nice sound to it. The instrumentals and vocals work well together and I especially like the little bridge around halfway in!! Overall not something I'd go out of my way to hear but in general man I'm not complaining it's a nice little beat :)


NP: Supercell - King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard 

_Deadweight_

Very much up my alley!! I fuck with the guitars and drums, though I'm not crazy about the vocalist, but he fits VERY well in the whole of the song! The thrash vibes go hard, and the "supercell" background vocals through what I assume is the chorus make me very giddy! I love the way the energy stays pretty constant throughout, and the way it gets a bit heavier in the middle right before the solo is hella good, and all the slight breaks in the instrumentation pair very nicely. I also always appreciate odd drum rhythms, pretty fast-paced and still easy to bob your head to! Overall, a solid 8/10 song, might have to check out more by the band!

NP, Grim Salvo - Why do I still care? CW: Video has some flashing lights and bright colors!!

v THAT MAKES ME SO HAPPY OMG, honestly, I never have heard a bad song from Grim Salvo, I'd highly recommend their other songs!! They have a bunch with metal elements that you might like, judging from what you recommended too <3

zombrif1c

info: i couldnt watch the music video due to the flashing lights, apologies!

not a song i would probably find by myself .. but i actually really enjoyed it! i really loved the opening, im not sure how to describe exactly why but it really hooked me into the song! i love the slower (or slower) than im used to, which lasts until about sort of two minutes in, where it has a change in the pace of the lyrics and introduces the heavier part of the song before a lull period with yet another inncrease ?? it feels like something i'd like to listen to in the background while drawing, and i actually might because it doesn't really feel TOO in your face, but still has an interesting beat and vocals. thank you for introducing me to this, def gave me a lil sway in my head

np, feel free to choose from this list

  1. rein raus - rammstein [3m, german + metal)
  2. wish - nine inch nails [3:46m - rock] 
  3. c'mon baby cry - orville peck [3:37m, country. cw, video has some bright lights]
  4. dead of the night - orville peck [4:01m, country]
  5. diamond eyes - shinedown [5:36m, hard rock / nu metal]
  6. pools - glass animals [4:48m, google says indie rock(?)
Lordbrianc

Chose the last one being generally into alt/indie rock myself. I've saved a few glass animals songs to my playlist before but I don't think I heard the one you linked here before. This song reminds me of how good the imagery of their lyrics are.. "Wrapped in life in ultra greens, pools teem with tiny feet". The descriptions feel so unique, like I could never come up with descriptions like that if I tried. I guess that's the main thing that comes to mind hearing this haha. 

np: here are some choices (rock and alt rock)

Cave Song - Pretty Vicious

This Is Not The End - The Bravery 

JESTERFUCKER

i chose cave song! this gives me like. idk how to explain it like coming of age 90's movie vibes? like i can see a montage to this song so vividly in my head. i like it! if i heard it in passing id probably bop along to it. taking a look at the lyrics i like the imagery of like. drinking and smoking in caves, adds to my little coming of age view in my head. the teens in the movie sneaking out in the middle of the night to party in a cave ohh yeah baby. love the vibe of this generally.


ive been so incredibly hyperfixated on the garden so every single song choice will be by them sorry <3 genre is generally in the rock/artsy punk realm, dabbling in d&b and experimental :DDD

freight yard (from the album horseshit on route 66)
ampm truck (from the album kiss my super bowl ring)
call this # now (single)
gift (from the album haha)

I chose two heroes and I gotta say, I really like drop right before the vocals came in! I don’t usually listen to game soundtracks, so I guess this is a bit further from what I usually listen to. Nevertheless, I think it fits that sort of fantasy rpg game sound very well, especially with the contrasting fast and slow sections. It’s very good! Makes me think of a build up into 3rd act kind of thing.

———————————————

alright I’ve been obsessed with this indie rock band for like the past two years and have been recommending them like crazy but oh my god i love them so much… their lyrical work is genuinely so good but people don’t want to give them a try because its in russian,,

I recommend reading the english translations, but you can just go off vibes too!

Шанс (‘Chance’) - Дайте Танк + English translation BANGER.

Люди (‘People’) - Дайте танк + English translation introduced me to the band so it has a special place in my heart  

Обиды (‘Grievances’) - Дайте танк + English translation lyrics might be a bit explicit(?) but it‘s one of my favourites from them
