I got hired by Capitol Records to get photos of Foo Fighters at their first official gig at The Palace in L.A. where they were opening for Mike Watt. I got there and Mike had declared no photo passes. So bummed. I love that album.

Ingenue and Reverse Running by Atoms for Peace are both perfect.

Pound for pound, DKC2 may be the "better" soundtrack. But hey, "Aquatic Ambience" and "Stickerbush Symphony" more than justify the inclusion of both DKC installments in any video game music "best of" lists, and there's plenty of other beautifully composed tracks on each.

I liked reading the comments a lot and the discussion. I am sorry about the downvotes. I sort everything by “new,” so I rarely notice downvotes. It was an enjoyable read for me.

Bloodrock - DOA

Good answer.

I very much agree with this. I enjoy words for what they are, but ultimately I find that they take away from my own interpretation of the music. I enjoy the feeling more than the story that supposed to go with them.

I'm not sure if that's sarcasm. I've noticed it's been down-voted a bit so I don't think it was a lot of people's ideas of enjoyable :(.

thanks for explaining. Personal musical interest is a huge part and would certainly explain why we search for new music through artists we already know. I had imagined plenty of people on a music thread on reddit, would have an general interest in music. I think I was focusing more on the why we listen. So in that instance, once you've found something, why would you continue to listen to it/what would motivate that. That's sort of where I got my ideas of 1.matching how we currently feel 2. matching how we want to feel and the third suggestion from this thread of how we used to feel.

Matt Bellamy-Muse

Rob Halford-Judas Priest, Fight

Geoff Tate-Queensryche

I like all of those examples and would agree, yes, powerful.

The mods deleted it for being click bait and asking for votes, as they should have.

Queen - We Are the Champions
Queen - We Will Rock You

Not sure why I got downvoted, either. It would make more sense and be more proactive to "correct" me instead of anonymously negging me. Bur that's the internet, I guess.

Thanks for this, have never come across it!

I’ve gotta be me - Sammy Davis Jr.

I don’t wish the guy harm, but I listen to his music and just think “Why?”

Not sure why you got downvoted, "bridge" is the correct term here, especially in OP's example since the part they're referring to sets up for a return to a "full" chorus.

I prefer “Tear away” and “Killin’ Me” but that’s just me.

They deleted the post lol, I think they got the message.

>Rock is not even relevant anymore, rock/metal is dead. All the good stuff they could come up with is already released. The genre has given everything it has to offer and now we are just keeping it alive via life support. Time to unplug the machine, if the music is uninspired trash it is uninspired trash.

This is not remotely true. Rock and Metal are hugely active, and highly varied.

Meh. I also put in a lot of effort when I make music, but I have self-awareness and know when one of my tracks is utter shit. I wouldn't put that out and beg people to listen to it.
