Non-metal Themed Mixtape Game

[Vegard Pompey]

Don't worry guys, his final submission is just as good.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I tried pretty hard to choose a good song as well as an appropriately thematic song with Exit-13.

Yeah you chose a very good one. The submissions were pretty good overall I thought tbh.

i was gonna submit this but decided against it cuz it’s an unfair instant-win

I'd give this at least a 6/10.

 

[Slayed Necros]

Submitted for the first time in over a year. Couldn't resist with that theme.

I don't agree at all, I think themes are uninteresting for instance if they are too restrictive (like most holiday-related themes) or so abstract they don't produce a cohesive playlist (musical irony etc.)



I don't like metal's representations of the alcohol theme because most alcohol-themed metal I've heard is upbeat and festive, with a few exceptions like Saint Vitus and While Heaven Wept. Non-metal takes on the theme seem more interesting. As a theme it seems very universal and broad to me. That said I didn't like the playlist very much, but I blame that on the participants. That Kult song was so fucking bad, thanks EspaDa for submitting that stinker and then not even rating.

EDIT: Since this post starts a new page, let me reiterate that the new theme is LONELINESS.

That song is great you grumpy! I only forgive you because you're Swedish.

Up to 7 submissions so far. Would like a couple more if possible.

@Satanstoenail do you want in on this?

Yep. Submitted

I listened to it out of curiosity and I hated it. I'm not Swedish, so I guess that we can't be friends anymore.

I like being friends with women. You may also be forgiven.

[Vegard Pompey]

I know, I wanted to disqualify it but I couldn't deny Omni the chance to participate after being away from the forum for so long.

 

[CiG]

I will slap her if she chose that shit.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

I think it's pretty obvious which song she chose.

Hank Williams - Alone and Forsaken 9/10
Perfect for my mood lately, what with all the Deadwood I've been watching.

Creation of Sunlight - Light Without Heat 7/10
This one is new to me, but it sounds very familiar. That whole west coast psychedelic scene gave us some cool music.

Ricky Martin - Nobody Wants to Be Lonely 1/10
Featuring Christina Aguilera!? Go fuck yourself whoever submitted this.

Devics - Forget Tomorrow 8/10
This is fantastic and also new to me, yet with a familiarity.

Sayuri Ishikawa - Tsugaru Kaikyo Fuyugeshiki 10/10
I forget who it was that submitted the Japanese songs in the past but if this was submitted by the same person, you're a genius. Perfect.

Velvet Underground - After Hours 7.5/10
This is 1969 and indie artists are still trying to sound like this. I love Moe Tucker.

The Cure - The Drowning Man 9/10
Faith is a masterpiece, what can I say.

God - My Pal 8/10
Legendary! Grew up listening to these guys.

Sandy Denny - Fotheringay 10/10
"The evening hour is fading within the dwindling sun,
And in a lonely moment those embers will be gone.
And the last of all the young birds flown."

It's not cool for you to stack the game against me by revealing my pick to everyone right away.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Yeah I suppose, ordinarily it would've won but now everyone's gonna downrate it because they know it's yours. Sorry.

 

[Omni]

You might as well just end the round and declare me the winner since you've caused me so much trouble.

Hank Williams - Alone and Forsaken
Awesome. I need to check out some more Hank. 9/10

Creation of Sunlight - Light Without Heat
Not doing much for me. 5/10

Ricky Martin - Nobody Wants to be Lonely
How come songs dont have such meaningful lyrical content nowadays?...have the writers become lazy? they should make another duet song ...kinda miss this kind of duet, the song the lyric and the voices are a great combination. ONE of the best duets ever, Xtina’s voice is amazing. The guy who get Ricky Martin is the luckiest man in this world,he's so sexy and handsome,wow,if i could i would! 0/10

Devics - Forget Tomorrow
Really cool. Love the dynamic shifts. 9/10

Sayuri Ishikawa - Tsugaru Kaikyo Fuyugeshiki
Great but I liked the one in the last round much more. Weirdly when this song finished it it played that instead of the next song on the playlist. Anyway 8/10

Velvet Underground - After Hours
Hipster shite 4/10

The Cure - The Drowning Man
Oh Robert 8/10

God - My Pal

Twee as all getout but nice enough 7/10
