Yomi Yori Kikoyu, Koukoku no Tou to Honoo no Shoujo by Imperial Circus Dead Decadence

What is it with people sending me long songs like this one? Are they aiming for fullplay? Do they think the enjoyment I have with long songs by my favorite bands will carry over to bands I’ve never heard before? I don’t get it.

My Japanese isn’t fluent enough here, taking the scare factor away from the song. Despite that, I found myself following along with the song (all 8+ minutes) and maybe even digging it a little bit.

The Sound of Silence by Disturbed

This song isn’t scary. It’s beautiful. I became a fan of Disturbed after hearing this live on Conan. David Draiman’s powerful, emotive voice and the stirring orchestra arrangement would have gotten Shubaka at least 9.5 points in Well-Covered. Or even a good solid 10. But this is A Good Scare and this isn’t a scary song. In the end, Shubaka played himself with all that song-hopping.

The Triumph of Death by Brian McOmber

This a good example of instrumental movie music setting or enhancing the pace and tone of its respective film. I haven’t even seen this movie, and I can feel the creeping dread and the sense of impending cataclysm.

Hikari Yo by Kikuo

This song leaves me frozen on the spot, covered in goosebumps, my imagination running wild. I know enough Japanese to understand that Miku is crying for help in this song, and combined with the “SOMeThING iS WRoNg HeEEErE” atmosphere of the backing, it outright chills me.
