QUOTE (Lost In Xanadu @ Jul 9 2012, 08:45 AM) Artists that you know get a lot of love here that you just don't like. I'm not talking about the pop crap that pretty much nobody here likes... for me: The Doors Bruce Springsteen Johnny Cash Kiss Porcupine Tree I was ginna say, since when did PT become popular, but then I actually read the entire OP. understandable. That said, I don't give a damn what no one says, PT is amazing

QUOTE (t2s @ Jul 7 2012, 06:01 PM) QUOTE (Good @ bad,andrush,Jul 7 2012, 01:32 PM) Beat Final Fantasy X in under 15 hours That's easy though My time was 12:48 single segmented friends were betting I wouldn't beat it in 15 hours, proved them wrong. It's an easy game and I beat it in 11:32 without single-segments, and I have done No Sphere Grid, No Blitzball, No Overdrive. And single command-Tidus gets attack, Auron gets item, Rikku gets Special, Wakka gets skill, Lulu gets black magic, Yuna gets summon, Khimari white magic. That challenge is fun and easy, try it.

Probably Permanent Waves or Hemispheres are the best, followed by A Farewell to Kings, Moving Pictures, Power Windows, and Hold Your Fire. CA is probably above average, but this changes often.

Beat Final Fantasy X in under 15 hours

Fixing my list: 5. Final Fantasy 8 This game, like all other Final Fantasies, is very surreal, the music is great. The story is also great but some of the dialogue is not the best and one of the plot twists is iffy, but besides that, love this game to death. 4. Kingdom Hearts (since it's all one story, the whole series) The music, the nostalgia, the epic mix of Final Fantasy and all the REAL Disney worlds...this game is too beautiful. It's charming story is wonderful, and seriously, who cares about the cheesy dialogue here and there...that's part of the Disney aspect. On top of that, lay on the hardest modes and the game is actually challenging, and lots of fun. 3. Metal Gear Solid (series) This story is brilliant, on top of some classic novels I've read. The whole world should read this extremely deep and symbolic storyline. 2. Final Fantasy 7 Perfect gameplay, story, and ATMOSPHERE. Some say this game is underrated, and others say it is overrated. But one thing is for sure. The ATMOSPHERE is underestimated. 1. Final Fantasy 10 My favorite video game story ever, and best video game music.

Metal Gear Solid 2 Snake is epic. Resident Evil 4 The village man. Final Fantasy 6 Playing as the bad guy. Final Fantasy 7 Jumping off the train and immediately busting ass, then Cloud's badass I don't give a damn attitude. Final Fantasy 8 Squall versus Seifer, with that epic music, and the trippy "waiting for you" stuff Final Fantasy 12 Basch kills the king you were fighting to protect. My Favorite: Final Fantasy 10 This is my story. Enough Said. And what a story it is.

Every single bond film. The good the bad and the ugly is epic. Clockwork Orange Eraser head

Preordered

If the music was even crazier and more fast-paced and a little more raw, more odd times and extended stuff, lalalalalala...then young Geddy, but old Geddy is great for this.

Bravado, extended version is my favorite song ever.

Why this whole album is metal, Is pure metal all the way ain't they? With such metal songs like Tears (that come out of the people I kill), Closer to the Heart (after being stabbed), Different Strings (from hell), Red Lenses (of Death), Middletown Dreams (will be destroyed), Second Nature (of the Beast), Available Light (is gone), Devil Years, and now The Garden (of Satan), are clearly metal, and that said, I vote for Carnies (from Hell!)

QUOTE (Roddy @ Feb 15 2007, 10:30 PM) From what I've heard, which is everything DT have done, and a fair amount of PT now, I reckon Mike could outplay PT's drummer with one arm and one leg tied behind his back. And DT make PT sound like nothing whatsoever. No contest at all either way, IMO.... ...ummm Gavin...according to drummers and actually musicians...can actually run circles around portnoy. But in PT he never demonstrates his full potential.

QUOTE (ColdFireYYZ @ Jun 29 2012, 09:58 PM) I got it for Christmas last year. Its much better than the original. Seriously, this. It sounds much more surreal, which is odd, because normally older recordings are the more surreal sounding ones. But SW has a knack for making surreal stuff

Been crazy busy, but I HAVE NOT forgotten this. Too many good songs to stop. I'll get back soon, but I'm working 52 hours a week and when I'm not I'm studying, reading, playing/recording with the band, or exercising. Oh, and occasionally sleeping.

QUOTE (ReRushed @ Jun 20 2012, 07:54 PM) Currently, I'm listening to Van Der Graaf Generator's Pawn Hearts. "Man-Erg" is my favorite song off the album. I don't listen to VdGG often because they seriously depress me, but when I do, it's the most beautiful music...scratch that...adventure I could possibly embark on. And Man-Erg happens to be the most beautiful adventure on their most adventurous album.

Weird stuff! I liked Devil Doll the most. I'm going to listen to a couple of songs tonight and probably pick up an album. Devil Doll is great

Thanks for the list. The only ones that I have from there are Caravan, Mars Volta, Return to Forever, and Weather Report. I'm especially interested in checking out the Devin Townsend albums, Animals as Leaders, Popol Vuh, Cynic, and Agalloch. What a coincidence, those five are the ones I would've chosen, but now that I've listened to them I can definitely say Especially Popol Vuh. Agalloch however I've only heard very little but worth more. Get absolutely everything by Pain of Salvation, too. Scarsick is their weakest effort.

QUOTE (Ovningskora @ Jun 20 2012, 09:50 PM) Nate... Stay strong. And some stories are better left for private. Hmm, definitely don't bottle up emotions, but don't go on the Internet expecting the best responses ever... That said, I'm glad you're okay. I had my fair share of depressing moments but never went to far into depression. Music is a big part of what makes me happy now even though now I'm just generally happy. Glad music saved your life.

Sounds f***ing awesome, can't wait

My favorite thing on the album and apparently my fourth favorite thing they have EVER done is 1:08 on Clockwork Angels. First: Extended Outro on Bravado-Different Stages Second: A Lerxt in Wonderland Third: Limelight Solo Fourth: 1:08 of Clockwork Angels Fifth: Time Stand Still Chorus Sixth: Hemispheres "I bring truth and..." Seventh: Prime Mover when it quiets down and gets electronic Eighth: Last Verse of Sweet Miracle Ninth: 7/8 in Natural Science Tenth: Losing It second verse.

The title track is my current fan, especially about a minute 10 seconds in. That sounds so surreal and creative. The Wreckers is beautiful and the lyrics in the chorus are goosebumps inducing. And the Garden is beautiful too. What a f***ing great band, a great career. This concept album seems to reflect the story of themselves, which just makes it all the more powerful. wow the title track is your fan? that awesome! Favorite, stupid iPad
