I've been listening to some Dethklok lately. I am not a death metal fan, but the entire project impresses me and I can't help, but admire it.

As for a link, I guess:

Venetian Snares - awesome fan made video for Szamár Madár

Both you and Luke should check out Alarm Will sound. They have a CD called "Acoustica: Alarm Will Sound performs Aphex Twin". Yes its a terrible title playing off the terrible label electronica. But the CD is awesome. Aphex tunes recreated solely with acoustic instruments, bits, and bobs. No electronics at all.

Rubber Johnny. More Chris Cunningham/Richard James madness.

More random mostly electronic stuff. Mostly just posting tunes I like that have interesting videos too.

Lamb - B-Line. Fun video for a good song from them.

Cylob - Rewind. The vocoded lyrics won't make much sense to non club/DJ people, but hey, single take martial arts exercises for everyone else.

The Knife - We Share our Mother's Health. Wip3outguy7 found this one a while back.

Beardyman - Beatboxing with a couple of Kaoss pads. He does cover some tunes once he gets going. Every sound is from his mouth, he's only using the Kaoss pads for looping and bending. Watch part 2 as well.

TRS-80 - #1 and #2. 2 Nike ads with bits of TRS-80 tunes.

Röyksopp - Happy up there. fun video with space invaders theme.

Photek - ni ten ichi ryu

Adam Freeland - We Want Your Soul

Evil Nine feat Aesop Rock - Crooked. For those allergic... includes rapping :P

Cadence Weapon - Sharks . Also includes rapping, but the video is all vidoe game references.

MC Frontalot - Bizarro Benius Baby. Nerdcore hip hop.

My Robot Friend - Robot High School

Coldcut w/ Roots Manuva - True Skool

Panacea - The Evil Seed. Ok, this video is cheesy, but Panacea (German DnB, not US rap group) is my favorite DnB producer.

Yay, another rambling post. Anyone that is into mostly electronic music and is bored with time to look at long ass lists can see more stuff I listen to at Last.FM or my music list on my crusty old Tripod page. And yes, with the exception of 3 or 4 them being bootlegs, I own actual copies of everything on the Tripod list. I started collecting music way before the game collecting got started. :lol:

You should listen to Cloud Cult. They make a lot of wonderful music that sounds like 'Why?'

Aphex Twin: Vordhosbn
I've been following Aphex Twin since the mid 90's when he was going under the name caustic Window.

You would love the BAD PLUS cover of FLIM:


And to all, please add some description to your links, "youtube.com/blahblahblah" doesn't tell us much.
Cool! More fans of Richard D. James! I've been following him ever since the release of "I Care Because You Do" and I have most everything he has released, save for a few singles and collaborations. This Bad Plus cover was new though! Thanks for the link! They did a nice job.

Rammstein-Buck Dich
I saw Rammstein live many years ago. There was a lot of fire. It was cool. The mosh pit was a freaking nightmare though. I guess they are popular with angry guys that work out a lot. I held my ground, but I've never been hit that hard in any other pit.

Agreed... except I haven't heard Q's newest release. It's on my list of things to check out though since it rated high on metacritic.

I have about half of those. I'll have to check the others later.

I dig the Arctic Monkeys, but never cared much for Lit, Goldfinger, or 311.
