Fluttershy_Pony 09/22/19 11:59:28 AM #117: | ===================== #240 [#116]: Name: Contact Origin: Holon (Front Line Assembly's Equinox) Nominator: Placeee (11/15) (7.4, 6.5, 5.1) [The opening felt very familiar, like I knew everything the song was going to do before it happened. I almost wrote it off as too predictable, until the laughter kicked in and broke my expectations. Its not my favorite (I dont like sirens and theres too many siren/siren-like sections), but its unique enough that it cant score less than a 7.] Apparently it can and did score less than a 7, so there. I'm probably being too hard on the song. It takes too long to get going (everything's a bit of a slog until the laughter), but once it does, it...puts me to sleep, honestly. Not in a bad way! It's very calming in spite of the sirens and screaming, but there are songs on the list that I find both more calming and more chaotic (often simultaneously as chaos is calming), and they don't take a long time to get good. So I'll probably regret dropping this so far down, I'm going to stand by it for now; good song, just not as good as it could have been. [Final Thoughts: The more familiar I am with the song, the less chaotic it feels as a result. That has an unfortunate effect on its placement.] ==================== ==================== #239 [#84]: Name: exuviae Origin: Darius [exuviae] Link: https://lapfoxtrax.com/track/exuviae-2 Nominator: cakophon (10/15) (7, 7, 5.1) [Nice. Im not really into the slower, more laid-back outro, but the song is always nice.] It does have a fairly unique sound, but it's a song that I have trouble remembering. it never really lodges itself into my mind, it just sorta plays in the background for a few minutes and then fades away. Not sure why; good song, seems like my sort of genre of music, but I feel like I way overvalued it purely because it was different the first few times I heard it. [Final Notes: Much like the previous song, it makes a strong first impression but doesn't go nearly hard enough on the uniqueness to hold up on repeat listens.] ==================== --- A not very secret alt account for when Raetsel wants to be a pony ...
