3/5 - It started out as a 4/5 but then degraded to a 2/5. Eventually it balanced out at the 3/5. I really liked it at first because it had a Daft Punk feel to it, and then it turned into some 90's club like "You Spin Me Right Round".
Another Dark Cloud 2 track. This time the beginning instead of the end. The video that accompanied it was amazing IMO. A perfect blend of cinematic cutscenes and gameplay that most games get very wrong now a days.
Song for the 3rd dungeon. Pretty catchy. I like the Mt. Gundor theme more myself. The Luna Lab theme is still my favourite. Also, Air2004 you should consider doing proper edits and reviews. I totally missed your's on the video I posted. You kinda clutter the thread with your double post quotes.
EDIT: No, wait. You really did skip me. What the hell?
Should I be looking for a mellow many instruments band you have definitely pointed me at one of the better examples. However outside of certain sequences on TV shows (usually ones involving a snorricam and the characters being drugged or otherwise not entirely with it) I do not care for mellow many instruments bands. When it was over the related videos had a studio version and although I can then see why you went for the live version I would have to encourage those that are on the fence to listen to it.
Now potentially opening myself to a flood of "you say that and then post that" I post the following
Sublime - Badfish
I try not to do the back to back postings on this thread (barring things like the thread stalling in the meantime), now it is not my first time hearing LOTR themed music (indeed a band or two ended up in the touring lineup of a few concerts I have been to and they were not bad) but I can not say I expected that.
I see I have been ninja'd though. Personally if I am going for zelda orchestras then http://zreomusic.com/ is a tough act to follow (said link even going far as to supplant the "official" versions in my head) and despite the addition of a vocal section they did not beat that for me, I might go a remix of the or a different mastering of your link though.
3.3/5 It has a catchy beat to it, but it's really not my style of song.
Let's try this one again, and hopefully the next person judging it won't give it a zero just because it's from the movie.. Oh wait, it's not. It's from the London Musical. Same thing, right..? No? Just listen to the song.
Vocals were great and the lyrics worked well, not sure about most of the backing track though (competent but unmemorable would be the three world summary). I reckon I could see them doing a James Bond theme at some point in life though.
Despite my usual aversion to 80's bands
Warrant - Cherry Pie
2/5 - While I'm certainly not a fan of Queen or any rendition of their music (aside from two songs), I recognize these guys did a good job.
00:00 - 2:14 = The song for this post. Feel free to listen to the other hour worth of songs (there are 3 other campaigns as well) though. Jeremy Soule has to be my favourite composer of all time. To be honest, I get waves of nostalgia over the music of this game every time I hear it. So many good memories of just playing this, and absolutely no bad ones. Like this nostalgia hits me like weed does. I literally get high listening to this stuff (no joke).
