Nice thread. I'll metal it up in a bit, if you don't mind.

Powerwolf - A Banana Tank
Pelican - Drought
Wyrd - Götterdämmerung
Theatre of Tragedy - Cassandra
Jungle Rot - Let Them Die

Now for something lighter:

Мельница - Ангел
Мельница - Ворон
Senmuth - Karnak's Ruins
Samael - Voyage
Blackmore's Night - Locked Within The Crystal Ball

To be honest, I never expected metal songs being mentioned in a forum that's about a game series filled with cute girls  :cirnotan:
They are all pretty good by the way although some of the links lead to videos that don't work for me so I had to find them somewhere else.


I'll just drop some music I really like here:

Pink Triangle by Weezer

Synchroniciteen  by Sōtaisei Riron
The entire album, this is not a joke, all the songs in it are amazing.

Ride on Shooting Stars by The Pillows

D'yer Mak'er by Led Zeppelin

Late Night Earl Grey by Chance Thrash

Kick In The Door by Notorious B.I.G

Monkey Man by The Rolling Stones

When the Sun Goes Down by Artic Monkeys

揪心的玩笑與漫長的白日夢 (A Heart Wrenching Joke and A Long Daydream) by Omnipotent Youth Society

I could post more but I don't want to go too far with it.

Edit: Fixed the links I posted.

Clearly there are some aspects of the series (music and gamelpay challenges) that transcend outward appearances. It's just a shame that Touhou metal circles like Demetori or UI-70 aren't very active these days.

Demetori, UI-70, Crow'sClaw, Iron Attack, Thousand Leaves, Undead Corporation, Unlucky Morpheus, 5150 are the big ones. Maybe DbU counts too. I'm probably forgetting something. Either way, explore the above on Youtube, they're all worthy of your attention.

Besides video game soundtracks, I don't really listen to a lot of music from bands but i'll listen to them occasionally. I used to be really into thrash metal but I got bored of it I guess. The only western styled music I've listened to recently has to be Lemon Demon and Tally Hall, but other than that nothing much. I like Yoeko Kurahashi's music a lot too, but I can't find the specific songs I like from her on YouTube sadly.

Some of the songs I listen to from said artists:

Tally Hall
-----------------------------
Spring and a Storm:

Lemon Demon

Your music taste is very good
Both Lemon Demon and Tally Hall(Miracle Musical included) are part of my top 10 artists in general.

Although these songs are not particularly my favourite from them.

Most of my music listening is Touhou official and fangame soundtracks, but when I'm not listening to those it's a loose smattering of obscure cpop and jpop, usually found when one of the cover artists I follow cover them.

Some favorites:


There's a lot more (80s and 90s cantonese pop, other modern cover artists, etc.) but I'm tired of writing and went down a rabbit hole of listening so uhh....yeah lol

I (unfortunately) do not listen to dedicated music albums or singles often. But I do play a lot of video games, and ever since the 90s and 2000s, video games have stepped up their musical chops to the point where some game studios hire dedicated music studios to create songs for their games.
Which brings me to Mili. A Japanese Studio now based in Canada that does music for Anime and Games. Particularly Library of Ruina and Limbus Company.

To Kill a Living Book (For Library of Ruina) has some good pieces. Particularly Iron Lotus. One thing that I like about her songs is even without the context of the game itself you can still feel the emotions the music is trying to amplify.
Another piece from the studio is Compass in Limbus Company.

oh boy, this is hard. i listen to a fair bit of music but i guess if i had to pick one song to share i'd go with
At the Drive-In - Enfilade
really good band that i enjoy a lot, if you enjoy this song i heavily recommend that you check out the rest of this album and their other releases.   :note:

Watched someone play Persona 3 Reload, looked into original a bit, grew quite fond of the music. Waking up to Burn My Dread for quite a few days now.

Based on my last year's Apple Music Replay, I'm super into Grandblue Fantasy soundtracks. I've never actually played the game. Some of my favorite songs:

Nalhegrande
Illuminated World
What Makes the Sky Blue

Other good songs (originally from visual novels):

fhána - 永遠という光 (Eien toiu hikari)
riya - 遠い旅の記憶 (Tooi Tabi no Kioku)

Maidcore genre has been a recent discovery:

Chikoi the Maid - Nii-san
Chikoi the Maid - Utopia, Pt. 2
Yakui the Maid - Flock

I've recently (well, "recently" given that it's been like half a year) come across 音闋試聽, which is an electric pop + traditional Chinese music fusion, and their songs have been really catching my ear. They theme a lot of them around traditional Chinese holidays or solar terms.

Here's their channel https://www.youtube.com/@Interestingcn

Their song about Qixi (7th day of the 7th Lunar Month, Chinese valentine's day, the inspiration of Tanabata in Japanese culture) has earwormed me the most recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2v1nUzwc3M
