Orbital (soundtrack, techno, favorite song, albums, guitarist)

they'e a techno band from the UK.

so anyone else know of or like them?

to date, i think they have about 10 or 11 albums. all of which are worth while.

But if you're just getting into them then I suggest their greatest hits album so you can get a feel for their best songs and the (earlier) albums from which those songs came from.

I personally prefer their albums Insides and Event Horizon

I quite enjoy them.
Nothign UBER Special, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Didn't they do a song with Kirk Hammet for the Spawn Soundtrack?

i think so but I'm not sure.

I've never heard the Spawn soundtrack but i read an article about it.

It's a good soundtrack, and yes, They did collaborate.

The song is Aptly called "Satan" and it's brilliant.

i'm listening to it now. . . . and it is amazing as you say.

they should do some more collabs with some other great guitarists

_Spinning_ · 09-02-2006, 10:37 PM

I agree.

They've got a good sound, but it's not as good when they do it by themselves.

In my opinion, Anyway.

I dunno. I think my favorite song by them was the Saint.
I personally think that was one of their bests ongs and if Satan is just an example of what they can do with other musicians then with another really great band i think they could make one hell of a song. maybe do something with some of the guys from MSI (just tot hrow out a name)

_Spinning_ · 09-02-2006, 10:57 PM

Haha, that would be really weird...but I imagine they could pull it off really well.
There's definately a lot of talent there.

well yeah.

combine MSI (one of the greatest bands ever) with Orbital (one of the greatest techno bands ever) and you've got like one of the best songs ever.

That's actually one of my dream combos for some reason. Plus MSI is really versatile.

MSI is very versatile? What MSI have you been listening to?
