Whats songs make you think of animorphs
« on: July 06, 2014, 07:53:42 PM »
The song You're Not Alone By Olive always makes me think of it mainly because it came out around the same time. Also for some reason the album Tomorrow's Harvest by Boards of Canada makes me think of the Ellimist Chronicles

Bad Religion's "Come Join Us" is pretty much the definitive The Sharing theme.  Lyrically, the whole 90's California sound, all of it.  Hell, that whole album screams "Animorphs" to me.


Bad Religion: Come Join Us




Also, pretty much any Offspring, NIN, Alanis etc from that period, for obvious reasons.

And early Lacuna Coil, say the first EPs all through to Comalies, that period where they were actually atmospheric and creepy and not putting out bland radio-friendly Linkin Park-esque crap.  Heavy, but ultra-melodic and sort of ethereal/cosmic sounding.

Wow, there are a lot of songs that make me think of the Animorphs.  I'll start with this one, Invasion by Eisley

Also, basically anything by Garbage, especially those first two albums.  Perfect high-tech, edgy 90's "vibe".

The week that I became addicted to animorphs was the same week that they added the new music to minecraft PC edition. One of the new songs seemed to play over and over, and I made some mental connection between that song and animorphs. I don't know what  its name is, but its the one with the cool beat.

P.S. good grief. you would think that the word animorphs would be in the autocorrect dictionary on A FORUM ABOUT IT. wavy red lines under perfectly fine words. fantastic words, in fact. animorphs... animorphs... yay.

Oh, also, for some reason so much of Megadeth's 1994 album Youthanasia screams "Animorphs".  Not so much lyrically, at least most of the songs, but there are some standouts like "Blood Of Heroes" and such that fit a lot with the final arc.  But just musically, the tone, moving away from the aggressive thrash-metal they were known for and into this sort of slower, moodier chunky-riff vibe, it's really sort of somber.  Even the title "Youthanasia", while not what the song's about, sort of implies that kids-forced-into-a-war vibe.

For me, it'll always be these ones. (And the whole rest of the playlist Dameg put together, which can be found here.)

A lot of general war songs, and general love songs for Cake or Robias. But also this:

I can't remember the title now, but there was a song that was on the original ATV Offroad Fury for PS2 that reminded me a lot of Jake when I was like 9.

The Offspring Smash Full Album


The Offspring - Ixnay On The Hombre (1997) [Full Album]



The whole of both albums in their entireities.  Just screams "90s California" to a ridiculous extent, and both are awesome records in their own right.
