Morrowind Metal Band?

@Steph

Haha, I was the exact same way, until that fateful day in the 8th grade.... Anyways, my Nerevarine senses give me the feeling you listen to country?

@Thermador

That would be the only rap I'd listen to :D

But seriously, could you ever imagine a Morrowind Dunmer doing rap or even soft rock? I could only imagine them doing some crazy metal, probably headbanging with a Daedric guitar or something. And yes, the vocals would have to be the metal growls or screams. It suits them perfectly. I could never imagine Jiub singing clean vocals. Heck, he can't even talk clean vocals ;)

HAHAHAHAhahahaha, oh my gosh, that was freakin hilarious man, you made that?!

@steph

Can't say I like country, and I haven't listened to too much blugrass, but I do like me some Beethoven and Vivaldi every once in a while, and BB King is just boss.

So do metal, rap, and screaming in tune sound good to your ears? ;)

steph: I would think that Folk music and Story songs would be more appropriate in Morrowind (and morroblivion)

Absolutely agree. I wouldn't want to walk around Morrowind with any other music than Jeremy Soule's Morrowind Soundtrack.

I was more leaning towards what style of music would fit a bad@ss male Dunmer? In other words, if you could imagine yourself actually living in Vvardenfell, and you were invited to a "concert" and only knew that some Dunmer "artists/bands" were playing, what would you guess their type of music to be? Mine would be some type of metalcore or post-metal. Definitely not 80's metal though. Just wouldn't suit them.

But nice musical tastes. I know that metal isn't everyone's cup of tea.

I agree with Meanwhile. It sounds more like industrial. For it to be dubstep, it would have to consist of about 90% bass beats and rhythms.

... I think some very unusual music would be right for a Dunmer Band. For some reason the Cantina Band in the original Star Wars movie sounds right to me.

Damn, I must agree with you. That actually sounds like that would work. No arguments from me. :D

Metal bands are not only screaming)

Amen bro. Metal incorporates much more than just "screaming" or growls, but for some reason, people who can't get into metal tend to get hung up on the vocals.

Beethoven is too serious. I can listen, but not for long.

That makes perfect sense to me. Beethoven's style almost seems like a precursor to metal music, which is why I like his music. It's dark and heavy like metal. Especially his 5th Symphony.

Vivaldi is ok, tho.

Yeah, everyone thinks of the "Spring" movement of his Four Seasons piece, which is what you hear in like elevators and fancy expensive parties, but I really like his Fall and Winter movements, which pretty much no one knows.

Bach is another 'serious' master. Brahms is nice for quiet times.

The three B's are boss: Bach, Brahms, Beethoven. I had some Bach on my iPod, but I can't remember any good distinct pieces from him right now. Same with Brahms. I'm not going to lie though, I haven't been listening to a whole lot of classial lately. Really have been digging this Tel Fyr band lately.

My DeBussy favorite is La Mer (Play of the Waves).

Listened to it. I guess I'm going to have to listen it to a few more times to see if it grows on me. 

On the blugrass thing though. It was funny. I asked my coworker today what the heck blugrass was. I've always heard of blugrass, but never knew how to recognize it. She told me it sounds like the theme song off The Beverly Hillbillies, and I was like ok, I guess blugrass is boss then :P

But to y'all who don't like metal: try listening the song "Seyda Neen" by these guys. It's a pretty awesome instrumental piece, which doesn't have any (screamed) vocals. 

My favorite from these guys though so far is the first one. At least listen up to half of the song where he talks about going to see Divayth Fyr in his tower to heal his corpus disease.
