I will admit...that I tend to listen to Lil Wayne, Drake, etc. when playing Dogfight. Somehow it gives me confidence. I'm not a huge fan of it, but I have my preferences. lol
But yeah, music is a beautiful thing. I love how it is.
Music is like the mind. So many of the lyrics, tone...whatever. However you feel, that's what you'll listen to. Some people don't feel depressed like others, so they don't understand the screamo stuff. You don't even have to be depressed, just angry. I've been so angry before, played any number of bands, and slowly cooled off. It's a beautiful thing. Music explains what we feel so much of the time. Even in the sound, you can find comfort. Whatever music it is, it'll be comforting in some way.
I've been around the block with music I like. I feel like i've been through all of the stages...so it's kinda like i've got some kind of song for every feeling. haha fun times, sad times, angry times....whatever the mood, their's music for it
