Favorite instrumental song(s)

Posted by The_Essence_Vortex

Mine is the Castle In The Mist from the ICO soundtrack. Mandolins rock! And you'll rarely hear that come from me. At least, I think Castle In The Mist is the song I'm thinking of....

Mogwai, Mogwai, Mogwai. Specifically 'Mogwai Fear Satan' and 'Helicon 1'.

I'm sure that if I whored this band out more then everyone in this forum would leech on to them and overrate them, as is their habit.

Probably everything on both Liquid Tension Experiment albums, all the instrumentals on Jordan Rudess' Rhythm Of Time, then most of Dream Theater's instrumentals (Stream of Consciousness, Erotomania, The Ytse Jam). I've been in pure musical bliss ever since getting the Liquid Tension Experiment stuff.

Mogwai produce stuff that's like anticlimactic ambient soundtrack stuff. Compared to all the above material, it... seems obsolete.

I'm casting my vote to Yngwie Malmsteen's "Far Beyond The Sun"

Posted by Gollum

Dream Theater's "Ytse Jam" and "Erotomania", as well as Jordan Rudess's "Time Crunch" and anything from Liquid Tension Experiment.

"The Big Ship" is fantastic.

Comets on Fire - Pussy Footin' the Duke
Squarepusher - Don't Go Plastic
Miles Davis - Black Satin
Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (the song)
Lightning Bolt - Assassins
Boredoms - 7777
Boredoms - Circle

As do you. A single Dream Theater album reflects nothing about them ten years later.

Quoting Richaod: As do you.

Last time I checked, a 70-80 minute album isn't usually a single song.

If you listened to 'Come On Die Young' or 'Young Team' you could diss them all you wanted to.

Speed Metal Symphony by Cacophony and Into The Lungs Of Hell by megadeth.

Slipknot-Iowa the song not the cd. It gives me a creepy sort of feeling.

Lookit me! Im slipknot! I'm gonna do everything i can to make muddy sounding guitars, crappily EQ'd bass, metallic and loose-sounding trums and computer noises to make bad music! Whee! Oh, by the way, i'm not good at anything I do :(

How productive.

Their production quality is admittedly pretty bad, though.

I heard that Slipknot sucks REALLY BAD in concert.

Posted by The Punisher

Slipknot use to blow in concert, but at ozzfest they basicly PWNED all the ***'es like Metalvox~55, but we all have our own oppions. The sad thing is you actually went all out on me for giving my oppion in a topic asking what my favorite instrumental is. Why must people post something to make another feal inferrior, bad home life, losing a relative, sucky school life, something along those lines? Sorry for acting like an *** the best I can on here.

Most of the music from Castlevania games

Disregarding the music they play, I'm sure they have pretty decent shows. You can kind of see why they're popular live when you listen to Pulse Of The Maggots or something like that.

No, I didn't go "all out on you." I made fun of Slipknot because a band with that many people doing the kind of music they do shouldn't be considered a "musicial group;" instead they should be more of a "noise-making group." Their songs lost their novelty REAL fast, and their gimmick of "WE WEAR MASKS CUZ WERE SCARY!" is the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard of.

Slipknot is the mainstream version of metal that is akin to the likes of Dashboard Confessional is to emo.

Case in point: Slipknot has nothing going for them except their gimmick. I hope they die a slow and painful death.
