Non-metal Themed Mixtape Game

[HamburgerBoy]

I never said it was metal, just lazy as fuck. I don't give a fuck about the rest of that drivel you wrote, eat dick.

Cool. I'll make sure to give every Wishbone Ash song a 0/10 in the future for being obvious to metal people that listen to non-metal.

Cool. I'll make sure to give every Wishbone Ash song a 0/10 in the future for being obvious to metal people that listen to non-metal.

That wouldn't even bother me, I mostly submit non-hard rock.

 

[Baroque]

If there's a line separating the realms of metal and nonmetal apart, this track dances back and forth all around the line testing your ass. It's perfect for stirring shit up.

It's like clearly blues rock riffs and even arguably hard rock vocals but just played well, heavily, with emotion, and the low end turned up

That said I think hard rock items clearly on one side should be fine to submit

 

[CiG]

I mean, if you did it to cause a shitstorm in here, I dig it. Congratulations because you got me too.

But if you were just choosing lazily (which seems out of character for you) then I'm disappointed in your ass.

 

[Baroque]

I assure you it was not chosen lazily. I sat down and figured out how to play the song on guitar, to make sure I could argue for it.

[Baroque]

people missed out on the other controversial aspect though , the lyrics could also just be about drugs and are pretty vaguely on topic

Let's keep this moving plz.

Public Service Broadcasting - Go! 4/10
Everything about this screams educational advert on TV targeted at vanilla faggots. Not for me.

P.E.P.E. - Shadilay 5.5/10
I like Italo-disco, this was an okay example of the style. Rather throwaway. Pepe memes are gay.

Last Flight Out - Plus One 1/10
No.

Pere Ubu - 30 Seconds Over Tokyo 9/10
Finally something actually good and boy is it good.

The Gathering - Liberty Bell 3/10
Exactly the kind of rock music I hate, it's like a mish-mash of mainstream 90's grunge-lite and stoner rock with a mild hint of boring psychedelia. Put this back in the discount bin at that record shop in the movie High Fidelity where it belongs, maybe some fuckhead with spiky bleached hair will buy it for his hairy wannabe Daria girlfriend.

Hot Snakes - LAX 5.5/10
It's okay. Repetitive but not really worth repeating.

Egypt - Touch Ground 6/10
Something by Monster Magnet would have been a much better choice.

Catherine Faber - Providence Skies 7/10
Based on a pretty cool video game. I like her.

The Lillingtons - Black Hole in My Mind 4/10
Not a fan of this kind of mongoloid cross between radio pop/sk8 punk and garage rock. Reminds me too much of The Offspring and I hate that shit.

Air - Seven Stars 6.5/10
I prefer the jazz Air from America, but this is okay. Sounds really pretty and I dig the drumming a lot.

Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Karn Evil 9 3rd Impression 7.5/10
Fantastic and epic tune! Much needed after this pretty fucking forgettable playlist honestly...

John Murphy - Sunshine (Adagio in D Minor) 6/10
Not mind blowing, but not bad either. Too cheesy to really have the kind of impact you know it's attempting.

 

[Satanstoenail]

K so can we wrap this round up now please thanks

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Still missing ratings from @Serjeant Grumbles and @Baroque. Either of you want to rate before I close this?

 

[CiG]

Fuck them, just close it.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Says the guy who *just* rated.

 

[CiG]

Indeed. Shouldn't have waited for me either, I'm usually one of the first to rate so if I rate last I know this thing has been dragged out for too long.

 

[no country for old wainds]

i predict i finish third behind air and john murphy.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Well, Baroque and Grumbles have both been online since I notified them and have not responded. I'm just gonna end this now.

Public Service Broadcasting - Go!
Loved this. Thank you Sirjack for giving me a perfect playlist opener.
8/10

P.E.P.E. - Shadilay
5/10

Plus One - Last Flight Out
Fuck this song in general but especially right now.
0/10

Pere Ubu - 30 Seconds Over Tokyo
Fucked up. No wonder this won because it's metal as fuck. I thought Pere Ubu was a punk band and I guess they are but this sounds more like really dark late 60s psych rock in some ways.
9/10

The Gathering - Liberty Bell
Liberty stand for freedom, oh hail the flag that set us free! Standing righteous symbolic of strength, our hopes for freedom to be.
4/10

Hot Snakes - LAX

Yeah, I submitted this.
10/10

Unusual genre/subject matter combination, but not really my thing.

An indecision theme is a nice idea, great pick.
