Sick of commonly used bands

Postby daisyboy13 » Mon Oct 28, 2002 6:38 pm

So many Amvs use the same bands and even same songs. It gets so old. Pick something new and good. :evil:

You know a lot of people have legitimate ideas for AMVs using songs they like and far be it for any of us to dictate to them what music to listen to, let alone make AMVs of. I'm on both ends of teh spectrum, while I'm almost done with my System of a Down AMV I also have one (the only video) to Al Stewart. You just go with what you like and have a good concept for.

So I think the suggestion should be changed to do a concept that is "new and good."

I don't care if people use music that's been used before. As long as the vid is well done, I don't care what anime or music. It could even be a DBZ Linkin Park vid. :shock:

I have made a new music video with a new band and song that hasn't been used before on here. Float by Bush. The anime though has been used many many times, Rurouni Kenshin (OAV). Please check it out.

I can empathize with a desire to see less over-played songs being used, but at the same time, there are videos where I absolutely hate the song, for whatever reason, but I love the video. Some examples are Larger than Life by William Milberry, and Ignited Solitude by Sierra Lorna. I can't stand the songs by themselves, but those videos kick the ol' inferiority complex into high gear.

Stop complaining! If you're so bored of such AMV then don't look for those! If you really want the creators to go with something 'new' then you should offer suggestion, not a complaint.

:evil: yeah, wat he said.

anyway...how bout you make some vids with bands that aren't mainstream? (i haven't seen if you have made vids so disregard this if you have already)

anyway...it shouldnt' be about how used the song is...it should be if the creator carried teh song well enough to be worthy of the song.

I did an LP vid, so f'in' what? It kicked ass, an if you wanna get self righteous about it, you can say it balances out by the fact that I was the FIRST person to use Zebrahead, Dio, an' the Decendents in AMVs.

So there. Now quit dissin commonly used music in general. It sounds really freakin lame when you jus' come out an say "Pick something new and good", especially considering that most of the people who say crap like that define 'new' as whatever is gonna be played out in 2 weeks anyway.

An' for the record, even though I've said it before, some song/anime combos need to be done RIGHT, no matta how many times they been done before. Until justice is done to the combo, I say they' fair game.

Peace

heh..I've kinda made it a habit to see if a song (not nessicarly the band, but the song) I'm thinking about using has already been done..many times it hasn't.. as my 2 vids show. But if i really like the song, and feel i can make a good AMV with it...I won't hesitate to use it enen if it has been used before.

I totally agree with what ek1 and Anime Jedi said.

Heh, that about sums up the argument in my eyes. And just so everyone doesn't think that Tommy is an egotistical bastard (Which he is :P jk), I love his Zebrahead - Love Hina video, but his Dio - VHD video was pretty awful. I even told him this once, and he said he thought so too, and was going to redo it. Also, I don't know if I was the first to use it or not, but I was the first to include 311, Jamiroquai and Squarepusher into the database, as well as Guster and Overground (These videos have yet to be made.) I am in no way saying that because I first entered these bands in that my videos are the Supreme insert-band-here video. In fact, I really like my Jamiroquai video, but my 311 and Squarepusher videos I eagerly want to redo.
