Anything by "Five Finger Death Punch"

This Summer my wife's Grandkids were here and this is the crap their into, unbelivable garbage.

After they went back home, Five Finger Death Punch came to the arena for a big show, I'd rather listen to Rap.

That {censored} just blows my {censored}ing mind and definitely sends shivers down my spine...a few others...

 

Chopin's "Ocean" etude

Also, a really obscure Australian composer, Carl Vine, but this piece jsut {censored}ing kicks my ass and sends major shivers down my spine, especially the 2nd movement:

Also, one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written and recorded, in my opinion...

Pretty much all of the first 3 Mahavishnu Orchestra albums send shivers down my spine, but that piece especially...

Also, everything the band Shai Hulud has ever done sends shivers down my spine, espeically because the lyrics are the greatest I've ever heard/read and the fact that it is the most simultaneously brutal and beautiful music I've ever come across...here's just a small sampling...

Oh {censored}, how could I forget Metallica's Orion? I mean the whole song does, but especially the breakdown where it modulates to F#m with the harmony leads (3:59 onwards, but especially when the guitars come in at 4:15)....that was the first time music ever sent a shiver down my spine, no joke, I had gotten into Metallica when Enter Sandman came out and then ran out and got all their other albums, and I couldn't {censored}ing belive it when I heard Orion, I would just rewind the casette over and over and over, it almost brought me to tears....

2 and a half minutes of the simplest melody. But something about how Peter Warlock used those wonderful suspensions. It just kills me. And while I've never heard this version by Parkening, (he adds guitar not present in the original score) it's quite good, and the string orchestra doesn't butcher it like the other versions on youtube. Beautiful.

Got Blood Sweat & Tears' "Child is Father to the Man" album as soon as it came out - this Al Kooper song has stayed with me thru the years as a masterpiece of writing, arrangement and production. (I think the pic shown on the video still is from 'Live Adventures of Mike Bloomfield and Al Kooper', though)

:) Recorded on Keith Moon's birthday, too. Total coincidence.

 

It's funny because I usually don't like this kind of epic, melodramatic stuff all that much, which is why in general I prefer the earlier Who stuff. But that song just slays me every time.

Even when she was still alive, this song gave me shivers down my spine.

And here's the live version of one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite Swedish singers (please forgive the bassist for his intonation, but the song itself is hauntingly beautiful).
