So, i like that the song manages to go for seven and a half minutes without ever feeling repetitive or drawn-out. A lot of songs tend to not make good use of longer runtimes, but this one does and deserves a fair amount of praise for it. I dont like the growl-yelling at the end of the track. Like I get the gradual ramping up in intensity, but its not something that actually appeals to me. Still, I think I generally like this now. Probably mid-50s? Ill jump it up to 55 points for now and see how I feel when we get to that part of the list. [Final Thoughts: Yeah, 55 points feels right for this track. Good song that doesnt exactly appeal to me, but has enough positive attributes that I dont want to place it too far down the list.] =============== =============== 396: THE EIGHTFOLD ROAD - THE TREES HAVE EYES: https://familyjules7x.bandcamp.com/track/the-trees-have-eyes Nominator: The_Mighty_KELP (17/32) Initial Score: 56.19 [#294] Revised Score: 54.53 [#372] Final Score: 55.32 [#396] (First Thoughts: The same as Olberics song. Its fine, but I have no connection to it.) A nice enough song that leaves no impression. Its not too epic or intense, its just kinda there? And it fades completely from memory the second its over with. [Todays arbitrary song selection comes from the Journey Arcade Game!] Steve Smith Theme (Wheel in the Sky): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0-umOwAU9I Itll never be one of my favorites pieces of music (its too... one-dimensional and beep[y), but it actually works really well for a classic video game song. I could see it fitting in nicely into a Mega Man type game. Doesnt this song make you want to just walk to the right and slowly shoot at generic enemies in an 8-bit or less adventure? ...No? Just me? Alright then. [Final Thoughts: Theres some nice electric guitar playing on this track. Not intense, just...nice. The song doesnt inspire any feelings, but its got a nice sound to it and I like the instruments.] =============== --- Temporary Signature ... Copied to Clipboard! |
