Gunship is the best I've found so far. Most interesting and melodic with vocals.
I can listen to the whole album and some of the videos are just cool as hell. |

Nope, not listening to any of that...
...because every time I do it makes me want to spend ridiculous amounts of money on a Bren Ten. |

I'd listen to that on a long drive with good friends and open containers.

The first pistol I bought when I turned 21 was a TEC-9, I blame in more or less equal parts Miami Vice and Big Trouble in Little China for that one. I had it for maybe a month or so and decided I kinda hated it, so when the opportunity to trade it to one of my friends in college for his S&W 3905 (plus 6 mags for it and 5 or so boxes of Black Talons ) came up I jumped all over it.

I agree. Synthwave is the shit.
Stranger Things actually got me looking into it when I researched who created the opening theme. S U R V I V E |

I listen to Pertubator when I'm shooting sometimes.
Synthwave isn't my favorite, but it's fuckin' good. |

I know a guy with a Detonics 1911 that he keeps as a truck gun in the Houston area. It is stainless, but I noticed some minor rust on it. I told him he should clean it up and use one of his Glocks as a truck gun. He just kinda looked at me and said "Meh, it is just a pistol".

I have to say, the new synthwave coming out is fucking awesomely amazing. Really hits me in the feelz and takes me back to a time where fixed carry handles ARs, square bodied cars, big hair with big tits, and killing commies was axtually happening and cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL_3D4b3UZM View Quote reminds me of miami vice mixed with futuristic pet shop boys |

Kung Fury is one of my all time favorite movies.

I guess it depends on how old you are, some of this stuff is just great and takes me back to the arcade days. Megadrive has some great stuff too.....it is like the soundtracks of Blaster Master and Phantasy Star 4 had children. What's crazy is someone actually made a retro game with Powerglove as the soundtrack....and even got Michael Biehn to do the voice acting! Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon. Most fun I had in years.

This guy has been popping up in my Youtube feed lately. Pretty talented dude. I think this would be considered synthwave(?)
I used to really be into the electronic stuff but not so much anymore although I do have immense respect for the talent some of these guys have with their playing and compositions. Eric's Brother - Lie To You (Kebu Remix) |

Megadrive 198xAD has been my favorite album in this genre for over 2 years.

People are fucking odd. I mean, really mental when you think about it.
For 20+ years I've been listening to people endlessly deride synth music as gutless, terrible, the death of rock, cheating, tonally vapid, clinical, mechanical sounding, everything that music shouldn't be. Now it's cool. Better yet, the most un-organic period in synth music ever is the stuff that's making the big comeback. The more 16-bit DX-7-ish the better. Parachute pants and moon boots are next, mark my words, people are gonna be wearing that shit again and feeling neato for doing it. |

I have a soft spot for Megadeth, Panteria, Metallica, Iron Maiden, and others. But sometimes Synthwave hits the spot. Like me wanting a 1989 Toyota Corolla with heavy tint, modern stereo blasting VHS Dreams, and a car mount rifle rack holding a Colt SP1 Carbine. https://res.cloudinary.com/carsguide/image/upload/f_auto,fl_lossy,q_auto,t_cg__marking_background__sm_/v1/editorial/ae90-corolla-1989-%282%29.jpg View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

80's metal is great too (my favorite) but this is about Retrosynth/Synthwave/Retroelectro whatever you want to call it.

View Quote As a child of the '80s I feel kind of vindicated that all my favorite stuff is becoming popular again all of the sudden. Honestly, I pine for that decade a lot lately. My wife and I just got done watching the complete series of Magnum PI (she had never really seen many episodes) and it just made me realize how much more I would prefer to be an adult back then. Enough technology and modern enough for me that I would miss nothing (except some optics and gun accessories) in my life and instead enjoy living in times where America was still America, people were not obsessed with digital lives, PC/SJW culture had not taken off yet, etc. |

I know these, my attempt to join and quit shit posting OP's thread again with my favorite metal... any street cred points awarded?
