The emotional whiplash of Interstellar Blues between all these really distressing Ned and Aubrey-centric pieces is so comical; like all this really intense character work is happening, and then Duck and Minerva are just doing wormhole stuff slashing aliens. And then after that? Distressing Ned-centric piece.
I'm on yet another listen (I have already commented but whatever) and I always listen to TAZ soundtracks when I work on my D&D campaigns. But I wanted to just discuss how much Amnesty impacted me, especially with Ned's death. Ned was completely my favorite character in Amnesty (Duck was a close second though). Balance was what taught me how to make a story to surprise my players, Amnesty taught me how to dive into them. Thank you Griffin for teaching me how to DM and thank you Griffin for giving me the music to allow myself to slip into my worlds to write them. The McElroys have been with me in my D&D journey for a long time and I will forever have them in my journies to come.
That is so awesome and I've been trying to learn violin because I thought it would be fun to learn void fish duet and void fish plural but I am such a beginner
I don't think I've ever felt this way about any piece of music before but the two Amnesty Lodge themes make me feel so at home. I have never had any piece of music ever make me feel so safe, taken care of and loved. Well done Griffin, and thank you
I know exactly what you mean, to me those to themes have always felt homely and also just warm and the entire soundtrack just has this air of familiarity to it.
Music has never scared me before 11:05 when i first heard it in the podcast, made me feel like *I* was getting chased, and actually prompted a fucking fear response.
you can really hear the Disaterpeace influence, Griffin talked about how much he loved the soundtrack he did for "it Follows" and its such a good track to take influence from, really fitting. griffin really scared the shit out of me with that one
SPOILERS FOR AMNESTY BELOW it's super weird hearing how... comforting? The "Another World" song is, considering it represents an alien race that manufactors wars to ensure their own survival. Did griffin have other plans for what role they'd serve in the story?
When writing my massive Balance fic, (it was a NaNoWriMo thing), I took so much inspiration from Calamity Tree (both the music and the arc) for some of the horror cycles. Calamity Tree is honestly one of the scariest arcs and it makes me so so happy to get those shivers down my spine at the creaking in the song.
Amnesty is one of my favourite pieces of media of all time, and this is one of my favourite albums of all time. Thank you so much for uploading this, it brings me a lot of joy!
The beginning of Aubrey and Dani sounds so much like the Twin Peaks intro. Edit: not even just the beginning. The whole song has that sort of twangy, synth-bass vibe that Twin Peaks used for like, all of its music.
Only now after listening to one winged angel for hours on repeat do I truly appreciate Belligerence Limit. (Edit) pretty sure this was written shortly after i had beat up Sephiroth with the funny luck based spiked bat. Felt like a lifetime ago.
i could really see griffin designing music for a game. in my opinion he's up there with toby fox with making impactful and catchy music

48:38 Is definitely one of if not the biggest "Oh shit" moments in TAZ
Griffin McElroy certainly is one of the composers of all time.

Spoilers dog!
Interstellar blues is my favorite and I could listen to it on repeat
I know, I learned it on guitar and I just play it whenever I want to hear it
That is so awesome and I've been trying to learn violin because I thought it would be fun to learn void fish duet and void fish plural but I am such a beginner
the revelation type music in this show is always so amazing and really creates the feeling of edge that the characters are feeling
God the remix of the Amnesty Theme in Belligerence Limit gives me chills every time I hear it
WELP. guess i'm listening to amnesty again.

I associate so much emotion in the show to the two Amnesty Lodge tracks and Sylvain, there's so much catharsis had when they are played on the show.
just another day of listening to this and having to skip past "Incident At The Archway"

For real! It’s so well made
you can really hear the Disaterpeace influence, Griffin talked about how much he loved the soundtrack he did for "it Follows" and its such a good track to take influence from, really fitting. griffin really scared the shit out of me with that one
Same! When I tell you that my heart jumped out of my chest-
I still get a wave of happiness and sadness as soon as Kepler, WV plays. Man this story still resonates so hard.
Griffin McElroy is one of the greates composers of all time.
Y’all ambulance jam slaps harder than it has any right to
55:05 is such a good moment; that rising in the music and the story when the Mundane becomes the Chosen
SPOILERS FOR AMNESTY BELOW

Never noticed the purring in heathcliff’s theme until now
I DIDNT NOTICE EITHER THATS SO SWEET

fully had to skip through the latter part of incident at the archway. not doing that today
the second half of incident at the archway is too good
@@noahlucas9151 but the Heartbreak :((
Anyone else get chills down their spine at 12:50 ?
Absolutely!

YES! I was just thinking that too!
Exactly what I needed to study
Thanks for making this, it's perfect study music for me
Just doing some geometry and then the Beast confronted comes on
Griffin is so talented.

Siiiiick
BELLIGERENCE LIMIT HAS THE SEPHIROTH THEME ???
the sephiroth part was SO HYPE
TBH I laugh a little bit whenever I hear Kepler WV because the start makes it sound like we’re in Scotland
1:31:21
1:28:07
Thank you!
The chords at the beginning of Belligerence Limit kind of remind me of wonderland(either 1 or 2?)
