[QUOTE="Revenge of the Bjorn, post: 1418415, member: 14834"] Heya, Mirth. Just be warned before you put money down on Therion that they're very different from most death metal bands in the vocal area. They use a huge chorus of almost operatic singers, occasionly with a standard metal type lead (like your Roths, Plants or Dios I s'pose). I think I read somewhere that their earlier stuff was standard-issue death metal, but I haven't heard those albums so I don't know. But I get this feeling that operatic metal may not be right for some people so I felt the need to warn you before you put down hard earned money on it or anything. Moving on to what other people said: I was actually a bit dissapointed with School of Rock. Jack Black being as awesome as he is, I just went in to that movie with hopes set too high. It was pretty good, though. I did buy the soundtrack and thoroughly enjoy it. On the Original subject: I think the most important thing in terms of music is to ask oneself "Do I like what's coming out of my speakers?" Too often people are too concerned with "image." Some self-proclaimed hipsters will only listen to punk or indie music and will turn against bands when they supposedly "sell out." Alot of pop music is trite and soulless, but alot isn't. So you take the good with the bad. I often put music on when doing something else so I exerience it more as a background factor, and occasionally I do put on a rap beat. (Although I prefer rock, and I haven't yet found a combo of the two that suits me entirely), and it works, however I'm not sure its the kind of energy one might want for a fantasy game. Perhaps in a modern game though. and something else I wanted to say: Pardon my language but has anyone here heard of the :):):):)ing Champs? [/QUOTE]
