Why do all normies love this soundtrack so much /tv/?
It's ok but doesn't fit the medieval theme of GoT in my opinion, also way too dramatic.

Because normalfags are brainless morons who will at up any form of media. All they care about is action and explosions because they are simple concepts that don't involve in depth thought or consideration.
>>71518648
Idk I live streamed the finale and I honestly thought someone was fucking with the music it was so bad and outta place
Eh, I liked the buildup and the faint GoT theme going on.
>>71519097
this
that song was retarded
>>71518648
Because it was different than the soundtrack in the rest of the seasons. The music being special and the editing being slower signalises that shit is about to go down. Also it's the final episode of a TV show with a lot of viewers, it can't be too dramatic. They could also have done it more medieval (whatever you associate with that) but it was not a necessity.
On the topic of strange soundtracks: Check out The Knick's soundtrack, that was a bold choice that turned out to be perfect.

I liked how most of the final episode could've been watched with the dialogue on mute and you could still understand what was going on
The song is overrated and there's a lot of awkward standing around by the extras in the Sept, but I still enjoyed the attempt at the whole buildup and some of those shots. Hell, the CGI isn't even that great during this scene, but all that bullshit was worth Marge's death stare, HS's "i dont goofed" face, the shot of the floor of the Sept rising up in green flame, and Cers's expression changing from relief to self-satisfaction.
I was waiting for this moment all season so I guess I'm biased.
>>71519296
Thank you, if there's something to criticise it's that there are many scenes that rely too much on dialogue. Although it's understandable, their budget is limited after all.
>>71519293
I agree with this fellow and their thoughts Knick's soundtrack as well.
>meanwhile these contrarian faggots will say Refn has good soundtracks
I like it. fight me.
does it get tiring, deciding to you don't like something because it's popular
I was hoping they'd stick with Rains of Castamere only.
Only fitting part of the song is when the vocals kick in, the piano is just jarring because we've never really heard something similar in GoT
since i watch Game of thrones on 2x speed with music of my own playing I never heard it with the scene but i'm digging this soundtrack
>>71519711
>the piano is just jarring
And by being jarring it hypes viewers for the big bangs to come.
>Mission Accomplished
>>71518648
The strings are more appropriate than the piano for the show but I think it's decent.
>>71518648
>Light of the Seven
Great name for the track with how it fits into the episode. The track itself is pretty meh though desu, and I also think you're right that the composition doesn't fit particularly well with a medieval setting.
>>71518648
the issue is that pianos literally didn't exist until around 1700, WELL into the Renaissance.
so plinky-plonky piano in a show which had mostly stuck with strings (that aren't associated with any time period even though they're only 100 years older) felt wrong on an unconscious level.
>>71518648
There is an impending doom feeling about it.
>>71518648
I was just thinking that this is, so far, the only good soundtrack in the entire show
I get chills when I watch this stare. I've watched this scene 40+ times now, I can't stop myself.
You guys must've blew your shit when the music played after Jamie got his hand cut off then. Anyone got screenshots of those posts?
>>71520142
I'm still mad about that, what the fuck were they thinking
>>71518648
Fuck you I liked it. The Phillip Glass part at the end was weird though
>>71520142
I loved the music choice but the problem was my torrent was fucked up and started playing the music before his hand got chopped off
but yeah, I remember the asshurt
>>71519870
it would have had the same effect with a more appropriate instrument, say a lute or something.
>>71519996
>Only period appropriate instruments may be used in the soundtrack
Literally the most autistic thing I have ever read.

I wonder, how do you call this shade of green, fel green?
>westerosians can make wildfire and boats and shit but somehow can't make pianos and organs
nice logic op
Should have went with heavy metal desu senpai.
>>71520263
Here's your +1, my good fellow.
>>71520492
>westerosians can make wildfire and boats and shit but somehow can't make pianos and organs
>nice logic op
greek fire & boats were invented thousands of years before the piano?
GoT is in no way historical, its Feudal fantasy. Piano may not fit the Middle Ages, but its European and normies don't care
>>71520436
the track by itself isn't too special but combining it with the visuals made it legitimately great
>>71520598
Also it was pretty great once the strings started. The only jarring thing was when it was piano only
>>71520583
wildfire is way more complicated than Greek fire. it actually has explosive and expanding properties. the boats were half ironic. you don't even see some the types of boats you see in the show infill the 1600s so it isn't horribly off
>>71518648
I like the track, its good, but the final 40 seconds of "lets play a game" is better, much better.

>>71519711
This - I wouldn't call the piano "jarring" but it doesn't fit the world musically as well as the later parts of the song.
>>71518648
fuel for the fel
Is that green shit supposed to be wildfire? That looks awful
>>71518648
Anyone else thing the music was too loud?
>>71520109
I don't understand why the High Sparrow walked towards her with that face like he knew he was about to die.
I really liked the track but I agree that the piano was a bit jarring
I feel like they should've replaced it with some other string instrument, but it's hard to say that the track would sound as nice, since the piano is the main instrument
>>71523384
Why did season 2's wildfire look so much better? I thought the show had a bigger budget now.
>>71520109
>I've watched this scene 40+ times now

Its honestly why I enjoyed the Witchers OST. Pianos just shouldnt be in everything

I think the wildfire CGI has always been pretty shit
>>71519293
There was a preview on tv for the Knick that included really fast visuals and that Cliff Martinez pulsating electronica. It got me to watch the show merely because of how intense it was.
>>71518648
Medieval Gregorian Chants were pretty emotional desu.

No, that's a pretty basic thing he said
Don't play chinese riffs or ACDC during a holocaust drama or dubstep in a War and Peace adaptation

What about Electronica in early 1900?
>>71526993
Rock music in ancient Rome?
>>71527250
never saw that one, i assume it's bad (if not some minimalist kraftwerk styled thingy)
>>71527327
this one is just terrible
>>71526048
Nice anon, very niceHOWEVER
It's supposed to not fit, to keep you thinking something's not right through the whole buildup of the scene. I like how the cellos kick in halfway through to put you back on familiar ground.
>>71527454
The Knick is GOAT. It's a beautifully crafted work.
>>71524292
High Sparrow just realized he fell for his own ruse, he was too blindly arrogant to see the trap laid out right before his eyes.

This one scene in Season 4 had more depth and meaning than the entirety of Seasons 5 and 6.

Or spicy caliente salsa music in ancient Samurai tales?
Seriously, I got to know every little rule now? When does it stop?

to be fair, /tv/ sperged out harder than this when that happened.
Did you all forget the punk rock song that plays in the credits of the episode where Jaime gets his hand cut off?
>>71518648
I thought it was terrible and didn't git the episode, but whatever. got is a terrible normie show.
>>71528379
yeah even normies went "lol wut, fucking dumb, dont put kings of leon after a hand was cut off"
>>71518648

I just rewatched this scene and its honestly the greatest sequence ever made for tv, stop being such a contraraian faggot
>>71529593
It is so uncharacteristic for game of thrones it hurts.
Taken out of context, it might be a great scene. But it just simply doesn't fit into game of thrones.

ur mum wouldnt fit the throne

No? Thought so.

>it was weird and out of character for cersei to vomit on her own pussy doing the sounds of the pacman's ghosts. Nothing like that happened for 6 seasons
"are you a GoT writer buddy? Have you ever written for anything? No? Thought so"
And they didn't have violins in the middle aged either, but you autists don't care about that?
>>71518648
I'm convinced that I've heard the tune before somewhere else. Either in an actual piece, or from another movie.

Because if they didn't, you wouldn't call them normies

Normalfags don't even care about cinematographique. They just want to go out with friends and release hormones into their brains. Which is why marketing is so successful.

I liked it a lot. It was really eerie and built up in a cool way.
