| et in Arcadia ego Join Date: Jul 2001 Gender:  Posts: 8,334 Thanks: 1,226 Thanked 780 Times in 488 Posts | Needs more epic I'm a very big fan of 'epic' style music. EG: Mona Lisa Overdrive and Burly Brawl from the Matrix Rob Dougan Muse (esp. "Butterflies and Hurricanes" and "Knights of Cydonia") Karnivool "The Doberman" by Kasabian "Slam" by Pendulum My Chemical Romance "Welcome to the Black Parade" and "Mama" subaudibleHum "Fire Out At Sea" and "Art of the State" I really want more music with this sort of feel. Any recommendations? |

We have their IM the Supervisor album, and that is definitely epic (though whether or not it fits into your definition of epic is another thing altogether, right? XD). |

Correct me if I'm wrong. Aside from a lot of film scores, I'd recommend "Everything Starts at the Seam/When the Fool Becomes a King" by the Polyphonic Spree, "Porpoise Song" by the Monkees, "Mighty Little Man" by Steve Burns, & any of Weird Al's longer pieces ("Peter & the Wolf", "Biggest Ball of Twine in Minnesota", "Albuquerque", "Genius in France", "Trapped in the Drive-Thru"). That's just off the top of my head. Oh, and "Stairway." And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!" |

In fact, almost all Prog is epic. If you want a truly epic song, try Porcupine Tree's 17 minute "Anesthetize". |
