Song of the Week - WEEK 55 Voting/WEEK 56 Nominating

Seriously people, where are you finding all the great music? Somebody besides me and Uzuki has to be running out. IT'S WEEK 55 AND ALMOST EVERY TRACK WAS DECENT!


(2 points) Metal Gear>>Solid Snake: Music Compilation of Hideo Kojima / Red Disc - Sneaking Mission: I don't even mind the overly done guitar solos. The heavy backbeat gives the song an intriguing gravitas.

(2 points) Tales of Legendia Original Soundtrack - Tomorrow Will Surely Be Sunny: The opening 25 seconds are heavenly. The rest of the song isn't quite as pitch perfect that opening tune, but it's still quite good.

(1 point) All Over Xanadu - The Resurrection of Dragon: For 1987, this is mightly impressive. Dig the rockin second half.

(1 point) Battle Arena Toshinden 4 (Game Rip) - Track 21: A tad scattershot, but never gets really boring.

As for the rest:

Aqauarium just missed out on a point. Abandoned Mines is like an old-school version of Star Fox Adventures dungeon music. Walkingaround1 certainly has atmosphere, but it's a little too static out of game.

And sorry, I have to steal someone else's idea here:

Song of the Weak: The Sims 2 (PC Game Rip) - CAS: I expected more since the Sims' piano tracks were so good. This is like a poor imitation of the Animal Crossing soundtrack -- which was lacking in its own right. Too cute and lacking substance.

How ya doing, buddy?
