I've been meaning to make a Sound Horizon thread for days, might as well do it now.

Their music is really hard to classify. I guess you'd call it symphonic rock or maybe art rock if you want to sound pretentious, with the main guy Revo composing the tracks, writing the stories and providing vocals. I think he does instruments sometimes but I'm not sure. Most of the band are like fill-ins, Revo is the only permanent member though some like Jimang (known for the Umineko no Naku Koro ni ED song (OHHH DESIRE)) have a spot on every album since their introduction. To quote their last.fm page:

>Their music is generally in omnibus style; an album contains multiple parts with different themes that create one long, coherent story. Both male and female vocals are utilized, with soprano and mezzo-soprano vocals being the most common. Usage of narration is not restrained and can be heard in a variety of languages including French, Spanish, Arabic, Russian, German and English. This narration is often reminiscent of anime due to the frequent involvement of seiyū in narrating positions after the band’s major record label debut. Various musical stylistic influences are also apparent in their music including progressive rock, jazz, pop, opera, classical, and heavy metal. Their lyrics are often mysterious and metaphorical and contain complex and fantastical themes varying from ancient curses, legends, mythology, dreams, war and paradise to lust, longing, obsession, crime, and death.

Whoohoo, I ordered my copy of Sekkenya's Shabon! Feels good to finally be able to start supporting the circles I like.

I saw Sound Horizon. <333

They're one of my favorite bands, the way they tie in other cultures and languages in their music, and tell stories with their songs and albums.

I've only really listening to Elysion and a few tracks on Roman (A few on Lost as well), but I love their music immensely. Glad to see I'm not the only fan~

I'm surprised nobody else wanted to use this thread...

it sucked

one of the bad things is, the anime had a very crappy ending. (besides discarding a lot of important stuff from the manga)

yeah, it the anime had a terrible ending.

I saw the anime first and then read the manga, and it disappointed me how much of the manga they left out. However, this could be because the manga was still production when the anime was being made. It takes a long time to finish a volume of manga, and I don't think the viewers would want to wait if the producers of the anime got completely caught up and had to wait for the new manga to produce more episodes. It could also have been a budget problem, that they didn't have enough money to continue the anime. (There I go being logical, urp.)

I like the manga much better, especially the end. It's the type of ending that rarely any anime/manga could pull off, but it worked in the case of Elfen Lied. I'd do back and read it again, for sure. The only thing that irked me was the art.
