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.

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

-
I have a playlist. Are you sure you want to go there? ;)
-
Oh yeah, let's do it.
-
Also, basically anything by Garbage, especially those first two albums. Perfect high-tech, edgy 90's "vibe".

Live Free or Let Me Die by Skillet

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.
-
Come to think of it this one makes me think of Elfangor

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 (http://animorphsforum.com/index.php?topic=5154.msg562470#msg562470)ones. (And the whole rest of the playlist Dameg put together, which can be found here (http://animorphsforum.com/index.php?topic=5154.msg579508#msg579508).)

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 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LxJ5du7cBPs#)
The Offspring - Ixnay On The Hombre (1997) [Full Album] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ER-m2zIMN5Y#)
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.
-
The song "Radioactive" reminds me of Animorphs as it is really intense and it talks about revolution and it is just... Freaking... AWESOME like Animorphs. Also, it was in the trailer for the movie "The Host" which is a total ripoff of Animorphs
-
I read the host at the start of last year, and i actually didn't make the connection between it and animorphs, but now that I think about it, Stephanie Meyer probably got the idea from animorphs.
This is completely off topic :P

lol, yeah it is :P what are we doing?
-
Still off topic. When I saw "Meyer" I thought Marissa Meyer (the author of The Lunar Chronicles series) instead of Stephanie. lol idk
-
Tool's song Jambi kind of reminds me of The Andalite Chronicles. Read the lyrics, you'd probably see what I mean by that. Also, "We're In This Together" by Nine Inch Nails, but I think that's mainly because of the vibe of the song, plus the fact that NIN is mentioned a few times in Animorphs.

Damn, I forgot about that game. Pretty good soundtrack, I love how Primus, AIC, and Soundgarden were in it. \m/
-
Tool most definitely gives off Animorphs vibes, agreed. :) "Schism" is a bit of a cliche, the most known Tool song, but that always conjured up final-story-arc imagery to me somehow.
-
Eh, I never really got that from the song. Now that I think about it though, Pu**** kinda reminds me of Jake in the final few books (also it's just a great, great song). Also, another song that I thought of is Ghost of Perdition by Opeth, which really reminds me of Marco and his mother. Actually, the parallels between the lyrics and the situation in Animorphs is pretty crazy.

I've made a list with all the songs who make people think about Animorphs and here it is:
