arabmorgan 1,762 Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 I've found that I kinda like songs with a kind of 'epic' feel to them? I think it might be because they're using an orchestra in the bg - I'm honestly not musically inclined enough to know lol. But anyway I mean songs like MBLAQ's This Is War, ZE:A's The Ghost of Wind and VIXX's Fantasy, so I was just wondering if anyone has any similar-sounding songs to rec?

Spoiler And a classic edit: I might have read that as choir Oh the second song sounds great! I'm a big sucker for rock tbh, and I love the third one too. I find the choir very soothing LOL.

The blonde guy with a lock of hair over his forehead is also cute lol. 10 hours ago, boxless said: Spoiler This is 100% what I'm looking for! The rap goes amazingly with the instrumental too.

That dubstep-sounding noise in Might Just Die's rap really brings me back lmao. Also I never really liked Jimin's voice in the BTS songs I've heard but Lie is so good??? Holy crap. I really like his lower/middle (??) register. That high note at 2:56 - love it. I'm really amazed at this find, I never thought I'd like his voice. Thank you for the recs!

Really liked the song though! And I have to admit this is the first Monsta X song I've ever heard lol and I love it so much holy crap. It has a kind of darker feel to it?? If their other songs are anything like this I might have to check them out. Also BEG! 10/10 taste, love their songs. I think Abracadabra was one of the first k-pop songs I ever heard lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler ONF seems to be doing it a bit too Ooh I just realised I've heard TFTMN somewhere before. It sounds a bit Japanese-style to me, I kinda like it! 1 hour ago, lighterxx said: MaYbe this?? It truly gives me epic style vibes Spoiler This is amazing omg it kinda gives me action movie vibes? Like I can visualise slow-mo gunfight scenes as I listen to the chorus. Thanks for the rec!

It has a performance too tho, since you liked the song maybe you will like that too°^°) Hide contents Im out of upvotes i will come upvote you later T^T Ohh this is part of their new comeback? I haven't heard much from SVT besides Don't Wanna Cry tbh, which I like very much. I listened to that a lot when I first discovered it lol. Their choreo is so theatrical, it is indeed very cool! Also whoever sings the first line at around 0:40 - I like his voice haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooh I like Knock! They have a couple of pretty different voice tones in this group and they really mesh well together. Bad Girl really reminds me of like....Sistar and Mamamoo kinda?? Idk but I like it lol. Thanks for the recs! I need to make these threads more often - I'm finding so many great songs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you liked the darker tone of their songs you'll prob enjoy these, even though it's not exactly epic: This one is a masterpiece, the song that made me fall in love with them. 3 years later and still sound flawless to me. This one too... It's shoegaze, not very epic, but I love it a lot, It has that dream like feel. Lol sorry for flooding u with mx, i had to, outsiders usually only think mx are beloved for their bodies but the fact is that its their music and their great and distinct personalities that really catch the fans Thank you! It's totally fine, I'm quite passive when it comes to looking for music tbh so I always love getting recs. It's low effort for me lol. Monsta X's style seems pretty up my alley, I'll go check them out more. I did like the 3rd song that you linked the most - really enjoyed the chorus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked that one! In general I actually really like that Gfriend goes for the more classic (?) melodic tracks.Thanks for linking more girls *finger guns* Also Gain!! I absolutely love Paradise Lost. She has such a distinctive voice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly, I liked the song LOL the chorus is so catchy, but I really can't deal with those costumes lmao. Actually, my first impression was: this is such an angry song?? The verses are so angry-sounding! I also wasn't sure what you meant by beat drop until it happened - I almost laughed. I was like 'this must be a 2012/2013 song' LOL these random dubstep drops were all the rage then and I actually don't mind them that much Also idk if it's just me but there's this weird...sliding/falling cartoony noise around 1:42 just as Aron (?) is sliding down the pole and istg I almost burst out laughing. It was such a random sound effect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
