TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 213d (1 reply)

Ah man. Always so relevant. Ancient but ever present present.

Listening to this version I think the mastering could be better. The intro is killer and haunting, but the bass is blown out at 1:37. You have to be careful with this song and NOFX always knew that if you listen to the original album version. Its got a point to make and if you take it too lightly you can't make the point. Like I'd really like to hear this without the audience noise and maybe not a full orchestra, just the bass and brass section. The winds and percussion (especially the xylophone) are too light-hearted.

squirrel@piefed.kobel.fyi · 2 pts · 213d

I actually prefer this version over the album version. Sure, the sound could be improved here and there. But it's punkrock in the end. Doesn't need to be perfect.

I can't help but hear some Gojira/Meshuggah influence, and I'm a big fan of those two bands.

So, that's a solid 9/10 from me

korthrun@lemmy.sdf.org · 3 pts · 213d (1 reply)

Yep all women. They've been my gateway into the genre. I've not gotten into it much because I like being able to understand vocals with minimal effort, but I feel like the vocalist in Crypta does a pretty good job at being articulate and it's raised my tolerance enough for me to explore some other bands.

I typically like more punchy rock music, but this one has a strong message and strong MV, so I'll give it a

7/10.

To answer your question, this is wholly dependent on your taste. 'Cool music' is subjective, so i don't want to recommend you anything I listen to. As another comment said, you can look to this thread to see what you may like.

Personally I use Spotify, and I know that the fediverse is generally averse to corporate music streaming platforms—especially them—but those guys never fail to recommend me a song i will like. A lot of my playlist is curated from their recommendations, so I'd also say you can start there.

mech@feddit.org · 2 pts · 213d

threads like this

Cris_Color@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 213d

Algorithms will occasionally turn up cool stuff but the best way is chatting with other folks who enjoy music. The algorithm of Spotify or yt music is often an easier place to find more music like what you already know you like. The more stuff you like, the more likely it is you'll find stuff in common with other people and you can ask them for reccomendations based on what you enjoy :)

But just hearing what other people are really into is a great way to broaden your horizons and hear a bunch of different kinds of cool stuff you wouldn't have found otherwise. I sometimes also like to look up the music that folks show in c/unixporn screenshots or that people mention in YouTube videos :) (oh, and sometimes you'll hear something good as part of the music for a video, movie scoring, etc, thats always cool too)

Long af, but totally worth it. Solid heavy metal (Djent?)

8/10

PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S@lemmy.sdf.org · 2 pts · 213d (1 reply)

Djent?

Nah, I'd label it extreme progressive metal but not djent. This album is all in standard tuning on standard-range guitars.

For a really clean djent example, Periphery released MAKE TOTAL DESTROY around the same time that Ne Obliviscaris released Portal of I. The word "djent" actually comes from the sound of playing staccato on the lowest string of a downtuned or extended-range guitar, e.g. 1:09 of MAKE TOTAL DESTROY (although the whole song is djent as fuck 🤘😈🤘). On this track, the lowest string is 8 semitones below standard. Colloquially, the guitarist is "almost playing bass".

NeO was probably aware of djent at the time of release, but my understanding is that the compositions on Portal of I (1) are more black metal influenced, i.e. NeO is a "prog-ification" of black metal, and (2) predate the online djent movement. NeO's next album actually did venture a little bit into djent territory since it was recorded with extended range guitars in that instrument's standard tuning.

GrammarPolice@piefed.social · 2 pts · 213d

Holy shit that song is metal aff!! I didn't know that's what djent specifically referred to and I've been listening to a lot of Gojira and Meshuggah for months. Thanks for that tidbit.

And to show what the difference is and why I find it amazing here is a comparison with just a few seconds of the song on each of a bunch of different sound devices. This was possible with live synth at home in 1990 or actually earlier but this is one of the best examples.

Like many people I'm not sure I actually have a real favorite but this is what came to mind first along with several songs from the Chrono Trigger soundtrack. Chrono Trigger is also one of the shining examples of taking a limited older sound device and wringing every last drop of capability out of it. So clearly an obsession of mine with music is created under technical limitations.

Not bad. I will say that it lacks a fair bit of variation for my palette.

5/10. If you had instead posted a crono trigger track though, you'd have received a 10/10. The best from that era.

Here's my favourite.

Excellent track from CT. How about one extra since you like Mitsuda's work with Chrono Trigger.

This is from an orchestrated reimagining of some of the music of Xenogears. Not some fan project either, made by Mitsuda himself.

Xenogears Creid - 03 Balto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwnNVOl4fx

I would put something from the Kirite album form him but it is basically not available anywhere for streaming at least not in English searchable websites. I did find a torrent for it along with hundreds of other songs of his but didn't want to go that far in sharing on this sort of thread.

I'll add that I probably should have just posted a Chrono Trigger track in the first place since while I'm unsure of my favorite music the game itself has been my personal number one game for a couple decades now.

Video is unplayable :(. But you just reminded me that Zenogears is in my backlog and i should probably get to playing it.

This song only has 484 views over 3 years, but I really like the tune.

Simple Man - Men In Kilts

This wasn't bad. Unfortunately I'm not really a fan of this type of country music. Very 60s—correct me if I'm wrong.

I'll give 5/10

It's actually from 2022. I'd call it somewhat new age folk as I know they have an electric violin. Thanks for checking out the song! Love the idea for this post.

Fantastic song and lyrics. Johnny Cash is always a treat to listen to as always.

7/10

I can‘t decide on a favourite song. Here is my favourite song of my favourite band: Fluisteraars - De Doornen

GrammarPolice@piefed.social · 2 pts · 213d (2 replies)

Wow this song is long. Too long i might say. It's some good metal, but it's a lot to take in, and it's constant metal, no rest breaks.

6/10 for me

safesyrup@feddit.org · 2 pts · 213d (1 reply)

I can totally understand. If I listen to the whole album it feels like two songs to me :)

Thank you for having a listen though :)

You all have a favorite song?! Been listening to a lot of Kings Of Convenience as of late though. Very Peaceful in those rather turbulent times.

This is good. I really like this

Interesting song. Not too much of my style though.

5/10

Everything i love in a rock and roll song. Fast paced, intense solos and grimey vocals.

8/10. Thoroughly enjoyed

wuphysics87@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 212d (1 reply)

Fun fact. Lemmy was in part named after the front man of Motorhead, Lemmy Kilmister.

Oh i didn't know that at all. You learn something new everyday!

Mine changes pretty frequently. Right now it's Flesh and Electricity by Camp Cope.

Not bad. I'm not a big alt rock guy except for a handful of songs. Always mice to see all-girl bands though.

5/10
