Themed Mixtape Game

[Internally Deformed]

Maybe. And in the meantime, this theme is already boring me...

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

There are a lot of traditional and extreme metal songs about Moorcock stuff. I hope to get a good variety in the playlist.

Do people just do lyrical theme searches on MA and if nothing comes up, they give up?

It's weird that people are so unfamiliar with the songs and song themes contained within albums they love/own/downloaded.

 

[Internally Deformed]

A lot of stuff sounds very Moorcockish without necessarily being Moorcock inspired was my problem (anything with chaos in the title, for instance). Anyway I found something now so I'll stop bitching.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

fwiw I could come up two good extreme metal submissions for this theme.

I've got 2 and one of them might be the same as one of yours but I doubt the other is. Are you submitting one of them as your pick?

This is a fucking easy playlist. Go read some shit you fucking nerds.

Exactly! their knowledge is so lacking.

Are you going to submit a metal song for this playlist?

Maybe because it's music? Personally when I listen to music I usually like to kick back and listen, not crouch over the lyric book and nerd out on what is probably just going to end up being 2nd or 3rd rate poetry. I do read some lyrics, but a lot of the time they are just an afterthought.

Ive never read any Moorcock before (gasp!), where would you all recommend starting? I was going to come back and play this round, but I cant make an appropriate theme selection about something that I am unfamiliar with.

 

[Internally Deformed]

Behold The Man is probably the best written of what I've read from him, although it's pretty atypical.

 

[Phylactery]

Have you had many submission for this yet Elric?

 

[Talos of Atmora]

I made a pretty good submission.

 

[Phylactery]

Hopefully it's much better than your last one

 

[no country for old wainds]

i'm actually spoilt for choice, surprisingly.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

LOL

Seriously though, it's pretty good. It's nowhere near as long either.

 

[Phylactery]

@H.P. Lovecraft are you playing this round? Weren't you on about the writer of the Witcher series ripping off Moorcock the other day?

 

[Elric of Melniboné]

Nine submissions so far. Eleven counting people who submitted a taken song and haven't updated me yet.

 

[Krow]

I thumbed around the internet looking for an idea of what this theme would be about. I'm sure I have music in my collection that involves this stuff but I'm not familiar with the material so I'm not going to submit something and pretend like I get it.

I might rate if the list isn't overly time consvming.

Oh crap, we're doing a Moorcock round? Count me in.
