    270 KB A Song To Save The World Anonymous 03/23/09(Mon)14:07 No.4061124  
    Get your imagining hats on, as the image is not quite related.

    You're on a rooftop. Your house, in the suburbs. The sun sets - perhaps for the last time - directly behind you as you gaze up at the alien, unspeakable titan that marches directly towards you. It lumbers with quaking steps, and the sky behind it grows cloudy and dark as if it were the bringer of an eternal, final night.

    Its eyes alight on you and your bandmates, the only ones who haven't run screaming in its wake. You stare up fiercely, not knowing if its vast perception can see the determination in your eyes or the bead of sweat forming on your brow. The guitar in your hands is your trusted friend, and behind and beside you your closest allies stand ready at your beck and call, armed with instruments of their own. Your little sister stands defiantly with a cowbell.

    You have one band on a rooftop. Play a song that will stop the apocalypse.

    --------

    Youtubing is acceptable. You may begin.

    This thread reminds me, didn't /tg/ at one point try to brainstorm a homebrew where players would be guitarists or musicians with supernatural powers commanded by their music, struggling against some entity known as The Man. I know there was a wiki for it too, but I'd be buggered to remember the name of the project. It is old project, I think from before suptg even existed.

    I'd like to go with the traditional answer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kNEo8OxrT8

    Darkness falls. Eerie silence builds until you hear "This is a song of hope..."

    We slowly marshal whatever forces await to stand against the behemoth. By the time we crescendo, fire is raining down all around us. The area is a battlefield, rocking on, speeding up, fighting, dying. The song ends on the remains of a battlefield, the band on top of a ruined husk of a building looking over whatever remains.

    There is only one song that can stop the incoming apocalypse.

    Only one song with the pure power to halt the Godslayers of Ragnarok.

    It lives in us all. A tiny echo of it can be heard in every song ever written, some more than others.

    It will only be sung once; it will be remembered forever.

    If we're talking Ragnarok here? It will be a song composable only by the sons of every nation.

    From the Dark Continent will come a drummer whose thunder rivals Thor's, who hears the heartbeat of the world and echoes it.

    From the American Heartland will come a bard with fingers from the hands of Hermes, whose mind channels the force of every string e'er plucked, from Rome to Qin to the empires of Persia.

    From the urban jungle will come his brother, fingers born of Buddhist zen, never ceasing, united with the universe.

    And from the East, burning red, will come the daughter of Mercury and Bowie and Joplin and Hendrix, whose song will shake the firmament and bring the titans to their knees.

    Thus shall be the band that faces Ragnarok.
