The children of the night, what sweet music they make

DarkJager · 2008-06-10 19:42:59

I'd like to start a thread for my fellow insomniacs, simply to provide some much needed soundtracking for the early hours. So what do you listen to? What tracks make the race to sunrise more relaxing for you? :D Personally I have to have a bit of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DLnUwUpnb8 And a bit of this:…

I would advise you to turn this up extra loud and watch the video closely.

For some reason, the video is really striking to me.

Part 1

Part 2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4E8E49WJpok

"One after one by the star dogged moon,
too quick for groan or sigh
each turned his face with a ghastly pang
and cursed me with his eye
four times fifty living men
(and I heard nor sigh nor groan)
with heavy thump, a lifeless lump,
they dropped down one by one."

Any comment I could make pales into insignificance...

Love prog stuff like Tool, Opeth, Discus and Dreamtheater, not really metal I know. Used to love me Megadeth during the day "Eye of the Tornado" used to be BLASTED out of my car

Listening to some Disturbed recently though they're pretty tame, Land of Confusion cover is deadly, really cool video too Fight the fatcats!!!!

PORTISHEAD - MACHINE GUN.
Didn't really like it first time I heard it but it has really really grown on me in the past few weeks.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pkeDsG2MKA

PRIMAL SCREAM - CAN't GO BACK
Great new single from them. Insanely catchy. The new album is pretty good - better than Riot City Blues imo.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8JHgu4XZOQ

CANDI STATON - YOU'VE GOT THE LOVE
I really love this song. Beautiful vocals.

ACE OF BASE - LIFE IS A FLOWER
Brilliantly cheesy 90's classic with a God-awful video! :D Always cheers me up when I'm down.

Whats the best music to listen to while online late? Can't stop listening to
M83 (electro easy listening kinda group). I dunno, heavy music just seems out of place at 4 in the morning.

Suggestions / Personal favourites anyone?

Bad Religion, quite possibly the greatest punk band of all time. Currently listening to this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxoD9zWY9Rg

I know I'm really late replying to these but two whole bad religion fans here!!! We need a thread :pac: ah no but seriously, they're my favourite band, I'm probably biased but I really enjoyed Greg's solo stuff, not at all like Bad Religion but stick it on to chill while reading or relaxing in general, I highly recommend it if you like his voice...

My favourite band of all time too. Shame they would'nt play in Ireland or even England any time soon, been waiting years to see them.

I picked up Greg's first solo album from way back the other day and it's really quite soothing. I like to put it on at night when I'm online and just enjoy it.

Here's some Moby which really is the perfect night time soundtrack. The song was used in one of my favourite scenes in The X-Files and well here it is:

I'm just having a listen to Jimi Hendrix's Axis: Bold As Love.

Wait Until Tomorrow to be exact.

Is it not already tomorrow though? I mean I got up around 1 yesterday afternoon?
