All encompasing Music thread
 

I know there was a thread about this but I wanted to make a general music thread to talk about specific interests, what you are listening to and to talk about Toku music of course.

I have over 100 songs on my phone but I plan to download more. The majority of it encompasses Kamen Rider music but I do branch out with some Journey, Gundam Music, anime openings, REM and one Coldplay song.

I've been listening to alot of Within Temptation recently. Howling, Blue Eyes, Frozen, What Have You Done Now. Very relaxing. While on Youtube I've been listening to Tetra Fang Supernova, This Love Never Ends, the theme to Daughters of Mynasyme (I can never spell that right), Dance in the Vampire Bund opening, Just Communication from Gundam Wing. Along with songs my girlfriend sends me. Ain't No Sunshine, You Dropped a Bomb on Me, Too Close.

I'm all about that girly electro-pop stuff. I'd call it a guilty pleasure but it's slowly engulfing my entire life. I've been obsessed with Perfume as of late.
Besides that, I'm pretty big on alternative with the occasional foray into electronic and rock/rap. Some of my favorite artists are Faded Paper Figures, she, and Death Cab for Cutie.

I have an extremely ecclectic taste in music. My main Pandora station plays a mix of European power metal and celtic folk, if that tells you anything. :lol

Most recently, though, I've really gotten into Lana del Rey. Damn near everything about her music hits me in aesthetic sweet spots.

Born to Die is one of my favorite albums from this year. It's rare to find such good storytelling in popular music.

Nearly everything I listen to is Japanese or Korean. With a few English songs sprinkled here and there. I like songs that are upbeat. Though there are some slow/sad songs that have grown on me. My taste has been expanding. There's really not an exact focus. Mainly the umbrella genres of Jpop and Kpop. Where they embody more than just pop music.

I feel so behind on everything. A Day To Remember had to fight in court to get their self funded album out? What is that all about?

Anyway I'm currently jumping between The Features, Gabrielle Aplin - ridiculously hot and ridiculously talented? Okay!, Touché Amoré - I was always kinda meh on these guys, but their new album is perfection and The World is a Beautiful Place & I am no Longer Afraid to Die.

About time you youngin's learn good music.

So I finally got around to listening to PATD!'s new album and was...fairly unimpressed, luckily ADTRs new album blew me out of the water.

And you know what is surprisingly great? Miley Cyrus' new album, I'm not kidding.

Hopefully this thread lasts longer than the last. If there's one thing I like as much as Toku it's music =D
Lots of awesome albums been released lately:
ADTR-Common Courtesy (everything you know and love about ADTR and then some)
HAIM- days are gone (err very unique mix of everything. I guess indie/acoustic/country- definitely recommend them. Check out falling and the wire.)
Avicii- True ( not a big dance music fan, sure I like the occasional bit of dub step wobble.. But I've always found Avicii to be an exception. This album is just full of awesome tracks from the country and dance mashup of hey brother to a kind of jazz esque Shame on me)
Max raptor-Mothers ruin (very British punk rock, but bloody catchy)
Kids in glass houses- Peace (catchy pop rock)

Oh and an album that I can't get enough of even though it's like 5 months old now, Blackest Beautiful by LetLive. Epic, epic stuff.

Just found this beauty online.. It actually makes me want to give RX a try.

I'm not much of a music guy, but I love "Remind You" (despite never seeing Unicorn)

And this version of Danse Macabre

Anything that ZUN does is a win in my book too.

I see your Gundam and raise you...

Even if I get the words wrong! "I like to jump rope, yea the double dutch!"

Looks like you got a little buffalax going on! I my self and trying to do that with Choushinsei Flashman's theme.

Me? Ive been listening to a newcomer in country music- Parmalee- Carolina. Im loving this song!

I answer you with some Hyaku hen no monogatari:

Pokémon Reorchestrated, everyone!
My favorite Pokémon-BGM from when I was a child...

I would help you spread country, but right now I'm a total noob.


Also: Beyond the Bounds, can't forget about this song.
ZoE soundtrack is simply beautiful.

TAM Music does some pretty amazing covers. I've been listening to his cover of To Zanarkand from FFX all night:

Why do I like this edit of the Gokaiger theme song?

While this piece played, I ran around in circles with my arms in front of me, pretending that I was Superman, flying for the first time.

I've been listening to Pokémon X and Y's soundtrack.

I'm kinda ashamed to say it...

but...

I...

kinda love...

Miley Cyrus' new album.

There, there, it's okay.

The most beautiful pieces of music ever, from the most beautiful anime ever.

I've been getting back into The Postal Service as of late. Ben Gibbard's voice is intoxicating. Death Cab may be around for longer, but they have no single album as good as Give Up.

The only Death Cab for Cutie I know is their one song who's name I can't remember because it was pushed out by useless Toku-Knowledge :lol But I remember enjoying it!

I have a feeling that the Kamen Rider Wizard theme would sound superb on the saxophone.

Also, listened to Blade's 2nd ending theme and that voice. Tachibana's actor sings it and I like it.

He was in the Sailor Moon musical after all :lol

Closest thing to that that I've seen/heard.

That's orgasmic.

That channel has several other Rider themes. Sentai themes too.

My sister found an old mix cd I made during my first major break up over a decade ago. I listened to it and oh boy... Brings back a rush of bad and good memories. Good Charlotte , dashboard confessional and evanescence. It's no wonder I didn't jump off a bridge.
