Exit by Shugo Tokumaru. I sometimes have trouble listening to this fully. Not because it's bad, not at all. The first song is just so good that I want to listen to it all day. [yt]Li_nc8ED6qI[/yt] Definitely something for Intriguing and How2PK to look into, but probably not to the taste of others here unless you really like weird Japanese folk.

[hide=] Faaaaaaaaaaaat. Also, standing under my light wasn't the best idea, but my room is so dark Why does my hair always look messier than it actually is on pictures?[/hide]

That is a fine motor, Lent.

I never did get into Animal Collective much. They're pretty highly-regarded in the music circle I belong to, but I can't seem to enjoy their music. Perhaps I'm listening to the wrong albums. I thought you finally 'got' them half a year ago when Merriweather Post Pavillion came out? I liked it a lot when it first came out, yeah. But I tried to listen to it recently and I just got so bored after about 3 tracks. It's not even like I overlistened to it or anything. Weird. Alright. I'll look into them. Still listening to that You [bleep]! album. It's really good.

Yeah shoegaze and post-rock kind of cross over a lot, but post-rock takes more influence from classical music where shoegaze is based more around psychedelia and noise rock. Each has elements of the other though - for example MONO's early work has strong shoegaze elements. I don't think so, but I'll definitely look into them now.

Critical Meat by You [bleep]! This band is great. I even think their somewhat tasteless name fits them quite well.

Actually, nevermind. Use the thread that Nadril posted.

I never did get into Animal Collective much. They're pretty highly-regarded in the music circle I belong to, but I can't seem to enjoy their music. Perhaps I'm listening to the wrong albums. Sakura River by Clams. Imagine if MBV was slower and much less abrasive and dense. That's Clams.

I Dedicate D Chord by toddle. You can hear a bit of NUMBER GIRL in this, but it's more upbeat and noisy than they were. It's not surprising considering this band was formed by NUMBER GIRL's guitarist.

They have a couple of subdued shoegaze elements and they try to bring that into their radio-friendly indie pop. They'll never ever be able to stand up to the big boys. Shoegaze for kids :P Shoegaze and bands such as Sonic Youth were the things that told me there was good music outside of heavy metal, so it's kinda special to me. I like my shoegaze to be really loud and noisy typically, but some of the more dream-pop stuff is fine also. The only shoegaze band I've ever found to be boring is lovesliescrushing. The album I listened to by them just seemed to drag on and on and it had nothing at all redeeming about it except for shameless My Bloody Valentine worship, if you can actually term that as redeeming.

Adio made a thread on this a while back, but it went to the depths of MM&T hell. So, shoegaze. If you don't know what shoegaze is, here's a little overview: I found out about shoegaze last year. I heard My Bloody Valentine, and to be honest, my mind was blown. From there, I got into bands such as Slowdive and Cocteau Twins, and after that I found Pale Saints, Asobi Seksu, School of Seven Bells, Ride, and LSD and the Search for God. More recently, I've been exploring the Japanese scene with bands such as Hartfield, toddle, Coaltar of the Deepers, school food punishment, Luminous Orange, Cruyff in the Bedroom, and Supercar to name but a few. Some of you may be wondering what shoegaze sounds like. Never fear! I have some examples of bands I like: [hide=Shoegaze examples][yt]v-vzlWnGwNY[/yt] [yt]-M5iOmYjOLE[/yt] [yt]caNiBPQuhx8[/yt] [yt]jxue5FAmew4[/yt] [yt]MOnfHDBW7SA[/yt][/hide] I think shoegaze is a wonderful genre of music, but we could do without the crappy revival bands such as Snow Patrol. Even though they were alright at first.

Luminousorangesuperplastic by Luminous Orange. This is drawing me ever so close to buying a Fender 85, a Fender Mustang, and delay, reverb and fuzz pedals.

Overplayed and overhyped, but not overrated. Not in any way. Damn kids.

He Has Left Us Alone but Shafts of Light Sometimes Grace the Corner of Our Rooms... by A Silver Mt. Zion. I saw deathdrow listening to this and I was talking about them with a friend today. I forgot how unbelievably tragic and sad this album is.

Fates Warning!

To be fair to Gallade, I did say I was done and that we're moving on. It pays to pay attention to those with green names, you know. I barely watch anime anymore, so yeah. I have nothing to "move on" with.

[hide=1680x1050][/hide] Played around with theming and whatnot.

That's not owning. That's just stating it as it is. Also, to answer your question: no. I avoid customer support unless it's absolutely necessary. It's just much less of a hassle that way.

This list is one of the most consistently awesome ones that's been posted. Oh, and Pink Floyd. You're awesome. They've been one of my favourite bands for a long while.

You ought to stop double-posting, that's bad. THANK YOU. I even posted about it a while back. If I catch someone double-posting again, I'm just going to assume it's a +1 post and treat it as such. Last warning, people.

Oh, hey man. I wondered if you were actually gonna join or not. Hymn to the Immortal Wind by MONO. Was talking to Azvareth about how great this band is a couple of days ago, and that made me want to listen to them again.

Thanks everyone.

I for one welcome differing opinions. This thread is too much of the same thing. I think people who don't like anime have as much right to say they don't like it as the people who love it say that they do like it. Don't take it out on innocent bystanders. This is your first and final warning. I'm afraid I can't do that, but I'm done now anyway. Moving on for real now guys. :-w

I would say achieving what you set out to do with your life will make most people attain true happiness; be it in the form of good results, getting the job you wanted to get... I don't know, anything that you've accomplished. Something like that happened with me last year. I was elated for at least a week.

Then go post your Anti-Anime crap somewhere else because I don't wanna see it. I would watch your tone if I were you. At least I didn't call him names. That's beside the point. You're acting like an idiot by attacking someone because they don't like anime. So what if the guy doesn't? Lots and lots of people don't like anime. This thread is for anime discussion and that poster had all the right to say that. There was zero anti-anime sentiment in the post that you quoted. So yeah, watch it; and don't dig yourself into a hole.
