Just wait until we hear it recorded with live instruments. If you still think it's bad after that, then bitch about it.

Edit: Also, why do you think you deserve a separate thread for this?

Well put. There's a reason I never let people listen to demos of my own music. Most people just don't have the imagination to hear the potential of a track. My own feeling is that the NC stuff will likely turn out to be the best of the empire themes.

I hate to say it, but I'm going to be the one crazy person and agree with Stew.

The NC music, at least most of it, is pretty bad. I actually cringed when the guitars first kicked in. And then I cringed some more.

Look, I know it's synth guitar, but I'm pretty sure my reaction was to the use of guitars, not how they sounded. I highly doubt I'll suddenly think it's awesome because the sound quality improves. I'll admit I'm wrong if that happens, though.

The problem is that it sounds like every heavy-metal guitar-oriented piece of music written by a composer. Something about classical composers makes them unable to grasp rock and roll. Don Ferrone is awesome, but that guitar arrangement is horrible.

However, I do like the travel music. Sounds like the Firefly soundtrack. It's just those cheesy crunching guitars in the battle music that sound so "wannabe hard rock".

If they want to stick with a westerny theme... I hate country music, yet I find .

firecamp cowboy banjo party sounds pretty fun to me.

That is CRAZY that you posted that just now. I was just typing almost exactly the same thing >_< Have the Serenity soundtrack running even as I write this.

Madness!

Listen to that and picture:
0:00 Shot of a gloved hand holding a well-worn picture of a woman and child
0:20 Hand folds the picture back up, stuffs it into a satchel. Camera backs up to reveal an NC soldier sitting on the top of a tank
0:24 The soldier turns to his driver with a look of determination and gets a stern nod in return
0:29 They both settle into the tank and the camera backs up further to reveal an enormous tank column getting ready to move out...
0:40 The camera backs up further into the sky as Reavers and Galaxies painted in roughed up blue and gold streak by...

I mean its too easy. PERFECT music for the NC, imho.

And yes, they did say that firefly was one of the influences for the NC music.

This is part of the problem. When it's done live, those "cheesy crunching guitars" could sound like ANYTHING. It might not even be guitars.

Man, no one knows anything about music these days. It has to be due to no one actually playing instruments anymore.

IceyCold · 2012-06-15, 08:43 PM

I completely disagree.

Look I hate country, I grew up in the freaking South; that is all I ever freaking heard was some old guy whining over a freakin banjo.

But honestly, the NC music not only fits the theme of rebels here in the US (historically western / country / rock thematics are symbolic for rebellious actions), but it also sounds right for the look and design of the faction as a whole.

I'm sorry you don't like it, you are more than entitled to your opinion, however there was no need for another thread on the subject and I think the mods should just lock this one.

I think it works great for the backward, duct tape everthing, mullet growing faction that is the NC. I can just picture this blaring from an Enforcer as they drive by shooting at stop signs and trying to peg someone with a beer bottle on their way to a redneck strip club to wind down after gettting stomped on by the VS and TR.

I'm glad i'm not the only one either fumed by this either.

I actually like the Generals suggestion in the first page of this thread.

NC music is awesome. Reminds me of the terran's music from Starcraft. It fits the faction perfectly and I wish the travel ones were even a little heavier on the slide guitar.

Bottom line: Get over it or join another faction.
