rpgamer Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Been curating a playlist at work, and for the sake of variety, been adding some... unusual selections that I dig up on youtube. And, as we all know, once you start going down the youtube rabbit hole, things get weird. There will be more. Many more. Share your own weirdness. Or don't. I mostly just needed somewhere to collect these vids and also maybe subject more innocent ears to the insanity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpgamer Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 For the sake of clarity, this isn't exactly my own personal music taste. That's plenty strange on its own. No. This thread will be for all the things I find immensely amusing. Largely due to subversion of one type or another. Take something familiar, and mash it up with something else. I've come to learn not to doubt in the internet. No matter how terrible an idea I've had is, in this case, bluegrass Metallica, somebody else with talent has already had this terrible idea and seen it to fruition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpgamer Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 This group makes bluegrass metal sound pretty normal by comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpgamer Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 "What if we took modern rock/metal music and arranged it as if it were written 500 years ago?" Said nobody, ever. Or, these mad lads, evidently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpgamer Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 So I'm sure by now most people have heard of The Hu and their Mongolian folk metal. And that's cool and all. How about a step further. Mongolian folk, blended with Latvian bagpipes and drums. You know you're pretty deep on youtube when the aspect ratio starts looking weird. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpgamer Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 Fuck me, how did this group slip under my radar before. Viking gospel metal inspired by IKEA. That's multiple layers of subversion. Incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rpgamer Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 I wonder if American metal heads are ever embarrassed that a bunch of Japanese ladies are probably shredding better than anything we've put out in recent years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rpgamer Posted August 24, 2021 Author Share Posted August 24, 2021 I also clicked on this one not knowing what to expect, and it only took a few moments for the name to finally click and I recognized he did the music for Paranoia Agent (and others, obviously). Not being familiar with most of his work, I just thought the soundtrack for that was deliberately trippy for the vibe. Guess it turns out the dude is a trip all on his own.

rpgamer Posted October 29, 2022 Author Share Posted October 29, 2022 I... what? I know I've been down the mashup rabbit hole, but...? I guess it's some sort of meme to mash this Slipknot song into anything? Bold. I guess I could go for more "anime songs mixed with things that are very not anime." Although... a lot of anime songs just get sorted into "generic music" in my brain, unless they really stand out.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
