I thought I would elaborate on the throw-away line yesterday about the BlazBlue soundtrack. I’m really quite addicted to it, and honestly I don’t know exactly why. It’s completely the same sort of hard rocking crazy guitar solo stuff that was in Aksys’s earlier games, like, say, Guilty Gear<\/a>. (Okay, maybe this<\/a> is a more appropriate example, but, you know… Bridget. Less Than Three<\/a>.)At the same time, I don’t know. I find it oddly compelling.<\/p>\n

Granted, it meets my requirements for a good game soundtrack like this. It is incredibly upbeat, constantly giving off energy. I can totally picture myself playing the game the moment I hear it. It screams “action.” I’m moving about the campus, having imaginary fighting game battles all the damn time now. Which is fun enough.
\nIt’s also just so… weird, kind of. I mean, it takes a song called “Oriental Flower” and it turns it into this<\/a>. It’s almost humorous when it gets off of that opening and into the bulk of the song. It takes some really fucking weird kind of vision to create something like that. I don’t know. It just seems hard to imagine any sort of metal-y song having anything to do with a flower. Maybe that’s just me. Maybe flowers are really hardcore.
\nMaybe Brutal Legend has almost given me an ear for this kind of music<\/a>. Or maybe it’s just the whole “fighting game battles in my head” aspect that cannot be discounted or belittled here.<\/p>\n

Anyway, I’m listening to it pretty well non-stop at the moment. So I suppose I recommend it. It’s just kind of a weird thing for me to recommend, I suppose.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
