The Wait - Killing Joke ... fuck I love this band. If there ever was an underrated british band, they are it IMO.

[FRO]

Failure - Undone
Metallica - Ride the Lightning (the whole damn album)

This is a REALLY incomplete list...

[captain ahar]

Swlabr and Mother's Lament - Cream from Disraeli Gears

[Jon]

some are

-The Pixies: Debaser

The first Pixies song I ever heard and it still is one of my favorites. Great choice if I do say so myself. It would take me an eternity to come up with a comprehensive list of songs but if I did this track would be on there. Kudos to your Blood Brothers mention as well. Check out thier new record if you haven't already.

[captain ahar]

been curius about that, haven't had the time (or money) to give it a go though. Burn Piano Island, Burn gets better every time I listen to it though.

[shadowstar]

Mastodon - Emerald
Deftones - Fireal
Norma Jean - The Human Face, Divine
Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Anathema - Anyone, Anywhere
Dark Tranquillity - The Treason Wall

[llaoyllakcuf]

just wanted to post this one song I thought was cool:

Goodbye Horses (Q.Lazzarus)


the first time I heard it was in the movie "Silence of the Lambs"

it played during a funny scene with the killer in front of a mirror

[Neon]

Parliament Funkadelic:

One Nation Under a Groove
Mothership Connection
Theme from the Black Hole
More, these are the top 3

Commando - The Ramones
Ain't No Fun - Snoop Dogg (quite serious) (ridiculously offensive but funny)
few by Jimi Hendrix
Work Song - Wes Montgomery (best guitar solo evar, imo)
Tons of shit by Led Zeppelin
Barbary Coast - Weather Report
Portrait of Tracy - Jaco Pastorius
Erotic City - George Clinton
A few songs from Sega Rally and Outrun
boss themes- from Thunderforce 5
Gigantic Fleet - Panzer Dragoon Orta
Debris - Radiant Silvergun
Faith, Butsutekkai, Recapture - Ikaruga
few songs from the Sonic games on Genesis (seriously)
Storm Eagle, Prologue stage - Megaman X
few songs from Battle Garegga
Stage 2, boss theme (fits the game well) - Dodonpachi
few songs from Warcraft 2
Various shit from Capcom games
Few each from Daioujou and Ketsui
few from Thunderforce 4

Yes, video game music is ideal music imo no lyrics, even P Funk's lyrics are sung with a melody to them to fit with the music so they're not irritating

[judesalmon]

Anything by the Cheeky Girls.

[adam76]

At the moment i can't seem to get "Evil" by Interpol out of my head! Which is a good thing as i think it's great.

I do like a bit o' ROCK N' ROLL!

[russ]

Failure - Undone
Metallica - Ride the Lightning (the whole damn album)

I 2nd the above Metallica quote - best song is "Creeping Death".

Right here with you fellas, Creeping Death and it's respective album happen to be of my favorites.

As for others:

In Flames - Suburban Me
In Flames - Moonshield
Children of Bodom - Needled 24/7
The Mars Volta - Inertiatic ESP

Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons (yes, all of it)
and pretty much anything at Happy Hardcore.

So yeah, I'm really selective in my music, so I only listen to a few bands.

London After Midnight - Revenge

its hilarious and i love it. in the booklet Sean (the lead guy) writes how the song is written in vulgar disgust of ignorance, intolerance and something else, and proceeds to write a goth cliche of a song that is humorously self-conscious.

lyrics reprinted here for your enjoyment.

Revenge
Written in vulgar disgust of ignorance, prejudice and jealousy:
Deep in this blackened void, the space that used to be my soul no ray of light no hope has shown there in the darkened cold. In time memories and pain will fade and disappear they must, but not until this mortal being has turned to scattered dust- You cannot judge what you don't understand take the blade from the child's hand all the petty lies and the jealous whores matter little and leave me bored- Repent, Remorse- Revenge- why don't you just crucify me, nail me to a cross and bite and scratch and make me scream if that will get you off- You say a fall from grace would suit me well, well you can crawl straight back to Hell, fear not to lie, it will seem a sharper hit nor to blaspheme it will pass for wit- Repent, Remorse, Revenge.
