Initial Score: 41.39 [#498]
Revised Score: 43.06 [#504]
Final Score: 43.80 [#529]

(First Thoughts: Im still not a fan of Danganronpa music, but this is weird enough that I see value in it.)

Yeah, this is probably the best song Ive heard from an actual Danganronpa game, but Im still not a fan. Id say the only thing it has going for it are the odd choice of vocalswithout those its....what, a fifth rate Magical Sound Shower and I wasnt a fan of that in the first place?

(I just learned theres a Hatsune Miku version of Magical Sound Shower, but I dont like that either. Though its not actively painful like her rendition of the Space Harrier theme.)

...what were we talking about again?

[Final Thoughts: If for some reason you wish to suffer:

Hatsune Miku - Get Ready:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VY1qvT_6iGE

Once her voice gets higher pitched at around the one minute mark, the song becomes actively painful, so... cant say I suggest listening to it, but if youre like me and feel I must go listen to that whenever you hear someone describe something as being terrible and painful to listen to, then theres a link for you.

Back on topic: ...Eh, I guess this might be better than Magical Sound Shower? I cant say I want to listen to that song or any of its remixes, so this seems like a bit of an improvement.]

(First Thoughts: Im probably just going to have this tie with Waitress and call it a night.)

Well, Ive decided I like this less than Waitress, so I guess they wont be tying after all.

And I agree with this song: Talking is pointless, so Ill honor it by not talking about it any further.

[Final Thoughts: Well, the futility of mankinds conflicts and the end of the world is a bit too serious a topic for me and once the song ramps up in intensity towards the end it quickly becomes one of those trying so hard to be epic that I have a hard time staying awake songs.

But I do kinda like the outroI dont know how to describe the instruments or what its doing, but everything breaking down until only a high pitched whine remains is apparently something I like. And I do like the vocal sampling of whatever crazy radio personality it is. Even the subject matter is more a you already know Im not going to have anything of value to say on this topic, so I fear this writeup is going to be a waste of both of our time than something I actually dislikeIll certainly listen to it and think about it, which is more than can be said for those songs I have an actual aversion to.]

527: EVERY TIME I DIE - THE GREAT SECRET:

https://open.spotify.com/track/142l0EWN8kXCWK9LLRjaDk

Nominator: Bane (28/28)

Initial Score: 46.54 [#463]
Revised Score: 43.83 [#497]
Final Score: 43.87 [#527]

(First Thoughts: When an album opens with someone screaming Blow your fucking brains out, I know I should just...go to a different album.

...alright so he didnt mean it like that and I cant fault the message in context, its still a more...brutal opening message than Id like. And the song itself is so loud, so overpowering, that its exhausting and tedious.)

[Blow your fucking brains out] refers to blowing your brain out like a candle whose light is inferior to that of the sun.

...Well thats one of the oddest similes Ive heard, alright. The song isnt bad, but its too intense for my tastes and even with the proper context, I have a hard time getting past that intro.

[Final Thoughts: I know this isnt the last time this list that Buckley uses rather suicidal sounding words in his choice of metaphors, but I suppose Ill save the why that song got more points discussion for when it comes up.]
