Theme: Guitar (Electric)
Your goal, should you choose to accept it, is to find an animu track that trounces this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGetImTgyFA <3

Man, such a shame the Needless soundtrack hasn't arrived yet. It's pretty much on the same level as the Guilty Gear scores.

Maybe i should just nominate the first OP. :3

Anyway i've been looking forward to this one. Will have my nomination up shortly.

(maybe inb4 satsugei)

Title: IDENTIFICATION
Artist: Akira Takasaki
Anime: Geneshaft
Get it here: http://sharebee.com/40c58498

Went with this one because it's closer to the "mission" I guess.

Legitimate excuse for Macross 7 music!

Your goal, should you choose to accept it, is to find an animu track that trounces this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGetImTgyFA <3


Shame I can't nominate this :P


EDIT:

Song: Diamond Calling
Artist: Fire Bomber (Yoshiki Fukuyama & HUMMING BIRD)
Anime: Macross 7
Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYFMs3Ncx2g

Probably one of the least known of the pile of great Macross 7 pieces, but a personal fave of mine and the most guitar-oriented. I was going to nominate Yakitori from GitS:SAC since it's basically a 7 minute guitar solo, but Yoko Kanno stuff always gets nominated :(

I had to resurrect myself for this. I've been waiting for Electric Guitar Week for awhile. I always wanted to nominate something from Gintama OST but have never been able to pick a song for a theme. This particular song is usually used during the "crowning moments of awesome" throughout Gintama but it has a distinct melancholy that makes it difficult to pin down a theme. So it's probably not the most technically accomplished of guitar pieces but it's one of my favorites.

Song: Jinsei wa Belt Conveyor no Youni Nagareru (Life Flows Like a Conveyor Belt)
Artist: Kamagata Eichi
Anime: Gintama

Instantly my first thought is Daft Punk's "Aerodynamic" from Interstella 5555, followed quickly by "Cautionary Warning" from Black Heaven, but I'm going to try and see if I can do something different with this one. :3

I've been ready for this one

Title: Cautionary Warning

Composer: John Sykes

Omo, tempting as it is to nominate the Galneryus song, being one of my favorite songs, I don't think you can argue that this song is way more guitar-driven.

Song: Bourbon to Rock
Anime: Someday's Dreamers: Natsu no Sora
Composer: Haketa Takefumi

Shredding is all well and good with electric guitars, but you can also make them wail and sing with soul, and how. I think this song is a good representative of that, and that there's more to an electric guitar than overwhelming force. Black Heaven taught us that valuable lesson as well. <o

I've been waitin months for a category i could nominate a Gintama song. So I hope I represent and picked a good one for the fans. I also thought of nominating http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yBEA7IbQdyQ
9mm parabellum bullet has some hax riffs. The PV for Wanderland is trippy too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkP2Fo2yGQM.

Composer: Takanashi Yasuharu

There's a lot of heavy electric guitar pieces from this score, though i find this one to be one of the best. This should work along side everyone's tastes.

@zzeroparticle - Here's a piece that is pretty much Guilty Gear themed, from Ikkitousen: Dragon Destiny. I was gonna nominate, though it's more then just electric guitar themed. Listen to it though!

Gah! Another hard theme. So many songs to choose... TT__TT

But here's mine:

Title: Modern Strange Cowboy
Anime: Needless
Composer: Granrodeo
Link: http://www.imeem.com/geniebookworm/music/mSVWdPsK/granrodeo-modern-strange-cowboy/

I like this one, though I might change this. Anyway, it's either this one or Haruhi's God Bless... or a BECK song.

good tip.

i've been thinking some, wish i could take my time but looks like you guys are doing a good job filling out.

kind of want to nominate some old school masami okui but it looks like that'll be bringing a knife to a gun fight at this rate :p

Hmm, I'm impressed with how quickly this is filling up as well as the quality of the tracks nominated. I guess people really were looking forward to this week. I think that means I can sit this one out since people are collectively coming up with some pretty good stuff that I approve of.

Also, is the Needless OST released yet? Gotta test Shiroth's claim :p

yeah, the two Mnemosyne songs are not that guitar-y. but as long as they have 'em in there.

i might just nominate it, since you got cautionary warning out of the way. or go geneshaft.

Hi all. It's my first time participating here.

And since there's still one nomination still open, I hope it's ok for me to nominate this track from Basquash! Original Soundtrack.

Title: We Won't Stop!
Anime: Basquash!
Composer: Audio Highs
Link: http://www.box.net/shared/9rc9jbfybb

There are lots of really cool guitar driven tracks on this soundtrack that it's really hard to choose but I went with the most familiar theme from the anime.
