9/10 - I like Peace of Mind better from this album as far as the original Boston album goes and think that a courtesy of tracks from Don't Look Back stand out more than this one, but it's definitely a classic that still rocks today.

Not my kind of music, but it's a funny story and my grandparents reference this song from time to time, so it still holds a bit of a place in my heart.

8.75/10 nice, well made synth.
Almost sort-of a Dark Souls Spoiler: if you haven't gotten to the end of it or plan to do so, this may lessen the experience a bit.

I haven't played Dark Souls at all, but even so, I find that to be a really beautiful piece. I'm sure it's even better in context. It sounds haunting, with a rather sad and somber, actually, almost tragic feel to it.

This one will make more sense to anyone who knows what Samurai Jack is about. Bear in mind that it starts doing a complete loop at about 1:55, with the remaining time being there so that it presumably isn't too short of a listen for those who enjoy it. So if you can, try and judge what you hear in between 0:00 and 1:55, because there's nothing new after that point. The rest is just an extension of the song.

The quality of the audio itself could be a bit better, but perhaps there's no helping it with the alteration of the key. The song itself isn't half bad, gives it a more mysterious and even somewhat depressing undertones compared to the original/normal version. Yet it still feels rather soothing as well, and certain parts maintain some feeling of adventure, to keep moving forward even if things in the area are looking bad and dangerous. That's what I'm getting from this, personally. Nice stuff.

It's a classic, the repeated Theremin riff is catchy and memorable but it's not something I'd ever have on my mp3 player.
6/10

I can't remember how I found this song, it was probably through a skate video (where I find most of my overlooked music)

Kind of an unusual song, but in a good way, and only in a good way. I was almost able to imagine a music video to go along with the song itself. The lyrics and the way they're sang meshes well with the instrumental portion of the song. So, 8/10

Having just finished this campaign in Shovel Knight, I'm probably going to be posting VGM music for a while here, assuming this place....actually gets any activity again any time soon. Hope ya'll like 8bit music.

Another 8/10

That was a really cool fast-paced instrumental song.

And yes, yes you should. It's a really great part of an already great game.

I love the Soundtrack to Specter of Torment! That said I think the Mole Knight stage remix was one of the least imaginative re-imaginings of the Shovel Knight tracks. But even then the original tracks are awesome too so saying a Specter of Torment remix track isn't as innovative is like saying my Mcdonalds burger isn't ground breaking to the innovation of burgers: Still a good burger that I'm not gonna complain about having.

Hm, what song should I drop? How about a somber piece from a criminally unknown band (Well, mostly one guy) that I've fallen in love with the past few months?

The first half......Sounds like some kind of messed up Jazz. Unsettling and intimidating, yet catchy. Very different and I mean that in a good way. The second half is just plain badass and at times it gives the feelings of dread and depression, indicating that something really bad is going to happen soon thanks to this character. Overall, very cool theme.

by and far, the holy grail of DAGames' music. highly toe-tappable beat, brilliant lyrics, and the crossover element is a neat little touch paying homage to some of his previous songs.

Ignoring how weird it is that there in fact is an Angry Birds and Transformers crossover game, it's pretty neat. I enjoyed the guitar player going ham.
