Title: Music that haunts you
Post by: Speelgoedmannetje on June 05, 2009, 11:03:59 PM
I'm talking about odd music, music which has that twitch in it, something unreacheable, which gives you a desire to hear more of it.  
for me it's Tilahun Gessesse - Aykedashem Lebe (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vULKEbqQmU)

What's yours? :)

I got the feeling it haunts you in a different way than my example.

Scooter.

It haunts me in the "waking up in the midde of the night screaming in sheer terror" sense of the word...

There is a last track on one of the albums by Elliott Smith, called "Bye", which really haunts me. Like he has been playing this from the other side...

Hm, I like it :)

btw, now we're talking about the other interpretation of haunting:

Daffodil Lament - The Cranberries (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2QuwMhsfS8)

Still sends shivers down my spine.

Urgh, I sure can imagine this haunts you. But again in another sense of the word :)

Ahhh Speel, I'm sure an open-minded guy like you can get some enjoyment from it :) I know RH is an acquired taste and can be a bit inaccessible, but In Rainbows is a beautiful album and deserves at least a few careful listens.

Yes yes yes, but the video, its the video which makes you think, which makes you haunted by the thought of child labour.

And btw. though I criticize RH to be too much "in your face", but also, sometimes, I love it to be "in your face".

Ahh yes you're right. Though the video doesn't match in any way with the meaning I get from the song, which is more important IMO since it's the song you listen to more than watching the video :-)

I'm not really sure what you mean. Are you saying their music is in your face? Or their words? Or their attitude? Or something else?

I don't understand most of them either ;)

That's interesting. I don't think that about them at all! Yes some of their songs are heavier than others, but on the whole I wouldn't describe their music as in your face. I suppose it's just a matter of taste :)

Try listening to Street Spirit, Sail To The Moon, Nude, Faust Arp, Everything In Its Right Place or No Surprises if you want to hear Radiohead less "in your face" :)

The funny thing, I added a four channel tracker module called Street Spirit around 1997 (Aminet CD?) because I liked it. In only found out last year that it was a Radiohead song ;)

If you still have a copy of that, I'd love to hear it!
