Songs That Re-thunk Me
Did you ever have a song that it hurt you to listen to but that you loved like an old toy? Ever had a song that made it feel like you were rushing on drugs, only you weren't? A song that you wanted to share with the world as though leading the blind into the light?
Here are my bright and shiny best... |
| 1 | The Appleseed Cast
Steps and Numbers
Taken from their achingly beautiful concept album 'Low Level Owl I', a song that describes this experimental period in the ACs life in a sweet golden nutshell...more to come. |
| 2 | Hopesfall
End of an Era
Great band. Great song title. Great song. Melodic post-hardcore at it's best |
| 3 | Mew
Comforting Sounds
[sigh] happy? tearful? depressed? excitable?...take 8 minutes to listen to this soundscape, as the layers build, it's so rewarding - it's almost like it song gives you a little pat on the back for bearing with it at the end. |
| 4 | Cursive
Staying Alive
Whatever has happened,it'll all be O.K. if you listen to this song. Don't believe me? Go check it out and let me know... |
| 5 | Ever We Fall
No Words To Describe
Excellently produced epic song, doesn't really fit in too well with the rest of the album but good nonetheless. |
| 6 | Mono
Halcyon (Beautiful Days)
Sometimes you don't need vocals. This song reminds me of a ship sailing into a storm in the middle of the ocean. |
| 7 | Jeniferever
From Across The Sea
Love, longing and a myriad of mysterious glacial sounds from Sweden |
| 8 | Oceansize
Music For A Nurse
starts small...ends big. good formula. |

Unrepairable Gentleness
The very fact that this band are Japanese and sing in Japanese and I don't understand it yet it STILL sounds amazing is, well, amazing... |

From the crashing resonance of the opening chord, this song doesn't disappoint from start to finish. |
