This looks absolutely adorable.  Great concept, and the art is wonderful.

Wow, this is such a shame.  I never knew Ghost beyond his forum posts and such, but always admired him and his work.  He had a unique vision and a great talent.  I always felt he would be someone in the community that I'd like to meet and share a few words with.

So sad.  I send my best to all who knew him, especially his friends and family.

I do enjoy some Crystal Castles.  Hadn't heard that song before.  I like the typical dark aesthetic.

The fan video is interesting for sure.  I'll have to find a copy of that freaky vampire movie they pulled the clips from.

I'm listening to Babes of Atlantis.  Current track is All Over Again.  Love this one.

Listening again, it seems to me like it's about "The Man," a catch-all for authority structures that have the power to upend your life: the military, drug syndicates, Hollywood...

That's always been my interpretation, but I never really sat and analyzed the lyrics.

Good track, though.

This one was playing as I responded:

In the same vein:

(This video always cracks me up. What were they thinking? Eye patches, flags and finger wagging?! Ah well, no cringe video can destroy the awesomeness of this song!)

Had to post this in response.  Perfect remake.

I will always always love Annie Lennox. Greatest thing to ever come out of Scotland.

Annie Lennox is great (and so are the Jesus and Mary Chain), but I would say Mogwai is the best music out of Scotland:

I had a chance to see this, and I've gotta say that it exceeded expectations.  Really glad I saw it.  I'm no DC fanboy, I actually don't like much that DC does, but this was done right.

I was not familiar with that Stones song.  Thanks for posting, I really dig it.

Here's my recent listen:

That's really a terrible result.  The judge must either be paid off or a blind fool.

While I understand your need to respect the decision, I hope that this does not impact your game development.  I would love to see this (and future) games completed.

And this is why I only use buy now on Ebay...

Same.

That Pink Floyd song is a great pick.  I fell in love with this one when I was 15, roughly 20 years after it was released, and it still sounds amazing.  Easily among their top songs.

And that track by Air is a beauty.  Spooky.  In the beginning, it somewhat reminds me of Alain Goraguer's songs from the soundtrack to Fantastic Planet (La Planète Sauvage), like this one:

It goes much further though, and has a great mood beyond the initial spookiness.  French music is great.

Sigur Rós is fantastic.  I love that album, and Olsen Olsen is one of their best.  As moody as the song can be, there's a wonderful optimism there.  Very cool video, too.  I would love to see them perform in such a beautiful setting.  I was reminded of this song when I watched The Tale of the Princess Kaguya (by Studio Ghibli) a while ago and heard this:

My favorite Sigur Rós track might be Ný Batterí:

Thanks for posting such good tunes, everyone!  Sorry for posting a collection each time.  Maybe next time I'll just post one?

That was a nice Beach House performance video.  I was expecting a single song, but it was quite the intimate set.  This must be an early show for them, since all of the songs are off their first album.  I like quite a few of their songs, like The Hours and Rough Song for example, but I think my favorite Beach House track is probably this one from that same album:

I really enjoy that track from Múm.  Lovely mood and vocal.  This is probably my favorite track by that band:

As for how I came across that Maxence Cyrin cover of the Pixies, I heard it used in Dave Chappelle's Sticks & Stones on Netflix.  Lovely rendition.

So I'll try to stay with the mood a bit.  Here's a song by a defunct Atlanta band that I'm listening to at the moment:

I love this one, always makes me feel good.  So nostalgic and pretty.  It's got a bit more of a beat and groove to it than Beach House and Múm.

Edit:  I just realized I posted this one here a couple of years ago.  Still love it. 

So how about some Air?  Similar mood and theme:

Lots of good tracks.

PJ Harvey is cool.  I like Down By The Water.

Crystal Castles are great.

And I finally listened to the new Tool album.  It's fantastic at being what it is, a Tool album.  Nothing particularly new or groundbreaking, just more good music from Tool.  I was disappointed at first, but it's growing on me.  I particularly like Pneuma, Descending, and 7empest.

I just finished listening to this:

And now I'm listening to this:

To each their own.  I find Ferrel funny in a lot of things, but it can be a bit much at times.  As for Adam Sandler, Billy Madison is one of my all time favorite movies but I don't care much for anything post-Wedding Singer.

Napoleon Dynamite (or "Nappy D" as my friends call it) is a fantastic movie.  I can understand how some people don't like it.  I found it to be hilarious, and somewhat reminiscent of my favorite television show The Office.  I guess it's the awkward humor and quotability that I enjoy.

I have heard from many sources now that Holmes & Watson was not a good movie.  Shame, I was hoping for a success.

Super excited about the album.  Haven't heard anything aside from that song yet.  Sounds like a Tool song.  May wait to listen to the full album upon release, may not be able to...

Wish this were a bit longer. Need some background music to study to like this. 

How about something like this?

It's not quite the same style, buuuut it could work!

Very nice!  Thanks for posting it!

Here is another in a similar style:

What a pretty underwater background!  Great animation.

St. Vincent's cover of Nico's "These Days"

Buffalo Springfield

It was used in the soundtrack of one of Argento's better films.

Thanks for posting!  All good tunes.  Enjoyed very much.  Hadn't heard St. Vincent's cover, but it's great.  Also hadn't heard Goblin, good stuff!

This was my last listen, stuck in my head lately.  Quite different from what's above, but I love it:
