[drowsystarlight]

LIVE REACTION POST FOR ZOMBIES RUN: THE MUSICAL!!!

The fandom had fun watching me lose my shit over season three (specifically looking at you mind control arc. Fuck you. Personally.) and anon here wants to witness me lose my shit again, as I re-experience season three via Act 2 of the musical, so why not !!! I had fun even if it was EXCRUCIATINGLY PAINFUL and the fandom elders nodding their heads collectively was fucking hilarious to me so fuck it, here we go !!! Zrs3 spoiler tag and zrtm spoiler tag will be included in each reblog !!!

Before I start though, I should note that I am a very impatient kid and already listened to Entr’acte and Come Back Home as soon as I started S3. My current favorite right now is Entr’acte bc it’s CUTE OKAY and Ik i listened to it once and was singing-humming the thing to myself all the time,,,,, it’s just so cute,,,,, what a fun song,,,,,, surely s3 would be as fun and cheery right,,,,,, hhahahahahah (not)

Also, this specific fucking bit????????

CRIMINAL OFFENSE. JAIL TIME. Shit still hurts and now I’m about to listen to it again KNOWING WHAT HAPPENS so now I’m also aware of possible foreshadowing…….. actually i think I already know where this specific passage will beat my ass later in the musical,,,,,,,, just a hunch just a feeling,,,,,, (uncontrollable sobbing)

Special thanks to Matty, voice of Simon in ZR:TM, who made our beautiful poster and song cover art!

also in terms of the bolas playlist it's fascinating to me that the songs added by each person have a slight tendency to represent a consistent aspect of bolas

like

the songs added by slime are their chaos

the songs added by philza are their rebellion

the songs added by cellbit are their rage

the songs added by baghera are their anguish

it's so fucking FASCINATING TO ME but i don't know enough music theory to elaborate lmfao this is Vibes Only

(mouse's songs i can't boil down to an easy noun which is why they aren't mentioned lmao anyway they go hard asf)

(also i went on the longest fucking unhinged elaboration in the tags lmfao i almost didn't have enough tags left to tag "long tags" at the end

(i could have even gone on longer in terms of where their characters were at entering purgatory [philza: cage for a cage; cellbit: fed worker murders; baghera: her past as a federation experiment; slime: turning into a code because of the code pretending to be his daughter] but i ran out of space and also time it's 4AM AAAAA)

I keep having thoughts about music in the apocalypse, esp during radio mode of Zombies, Run.

Popular music would be comparatively easy to find just because there's going to be a higher volume of AC/DC records compared to the little indie artists you can only find on Bandcamp or at your local gigs.

This isn't to shit on popular music. Hells Bells is great. It's well loved for a reason. But, having three copies of the same record does not give much variety for people with different tastes or even for people who like that genre.

You *can* record over records. It happened a lot with early ska bands. A lot of music was lost that way because the old material would just be recorded over with new songs. But I think at some point the folks at Abel Township would be willing to sacrifice their backup copy of the same songs they've heard a thousand times for something new.

Which brings us to Abel Studio Recordings.

You have all these residents with all these different tastes in music who can remember songs word for word. And even some musicians who know how to play and have access to instruments.

My Five? They'd play the hell out of some folk punk and indie folk. Conveniently, they both transfer really well to a paired down audio style because they got pretty minimalist instrumentals.

Give Sam a piano and he'll record nerdy video game soundtracks. Maybe a collection of soothing instrumentals the radio guys can play at night time full of songs like Zelda's Lullaby and Gaeta's Lament. Even with people who aren't fans of the franchises can appreciate how beautiful the songs are and how they lull them to sleep after PTSD apocalypse nightmares.

There might even be some original songwriters tucked up in the township. We know there's at least one author. And I'm sure radio boyfriends have tried their hand at writing something together. They could be the new Amazing Devil, singing beautifully romantic, emotionally fraught, and absolutely unhinged duets.

I also love the idea of the post-apocalyptic records slowly making their way around and developing small but very loyal fan bases. Dr. Meyers goes to meet with a small team of scientists and someone stops her because they know that lovely, warm alto voice with a little bit of vocal fry. And yeah, they're here on business but would it be too much trouble to ask for a live performance of one of her Billie Holiday tracks? Or Tom Waits? She does a brilliant "Drunk on the Moon".

as someone who has been an iron maiden fan for the past 9 years, i just want to say thank you for your silly eddie doodles. i've been waiting for someone to draw him that way for so long lol. all the serious fanart of him in general is nice but once in a while he needs to be drawn as a gremlin >:)

man I have been having a rough time of it but I’m glad I’m finally getting to this!! Thank you!! Eddie is just a little guy to me. He loves his laser guns and running around like a child who has had too much sugar. Highly suggest reading the notes in Derek Riggs’ portfolio, there is some good little guy Edward content in there.

27 28 nd 29..

~~~

27. No. I don’t </3 I just dive in head first and if I die then woopsies!! If I don’t get it right I just stop drawing for the day!! <//3

28. Mmmm I think the only art “events” I’ve ever been involved in were draw to adopt oc things 🤔 (funfact this was how I acquired Carolina and Joseph <3) and I made a couple drawings for a book? (I dunno if it ever published LMAO), I went to the other schools with some friends and we drew for the kids there, and I did paintings on the local businesses when I was in High school! Idk if any of these are considered art events lol I’m just saying shit I did that involved me drawing things XD

29. GOD uh. Uhhhh. Das a hard question cus a lot of things I like DID influence me artistically lmao. And I don’t even necessarily mean in a drawing way, but in a writing or characterization way too... hmmgg mhm uhm. ?? Maybe L4D 2?? I dressed as the Witch for Halloween one year so I obviously really liked it lol but I wouldn’t say it was smth that influenced my art (not too much at least HDHSH)
