I love the monsters but relate so much more to the robots, plus their music is much better.
Robots lead such a better life, where monsters are forced into being hairy hermits in south-western Canada or only allowed to be themselves at night or when there's a full moon, it just seems like such a mundane existence. Although the secrecy and anonimity is kind of sexy, the upkeep is just too much.
It took ALL of my might to not ruin this with a certain STYX song.
Oil my joints and send me on my way, these songs remind me of robots.

| 1 | Kenji Kawai : Making of a Cyborg |
|
I've heard of people that hate the music in the opening of Ghost in the Shell, but I happen to like how dynamic it is and how well it documents the birth and making of Major Kusanagi. One of the best anime films ever made a robot-loving Japanese guy.

I used to skip this robot voice song when I first got this cd, now it doesn't really bother me. It doesn't creep me out anymore and luckily it's pretty short.

the "single" off of this album is the most reminiscent of hard steel and deep space, with robot-like MF Doom of course.

| 4 | Orbital : Doctor? |
|
hello to old creepy T.V. shows I used to watch on PBS as a pre-teen. This show actually scared me, and it's one of those things that was really cool at the time, but now seems pretty silly. Like the movie COLORS.
It was one of the longest running T.V. shows ever, yet I was watching it way after it was done and finished. A "Dalek" was a robot from that show, Cybermen were present, and there was also K9, which was a robotic dog with a laser. BEAT THAT, MONSTERS. Superior: Robots, Dr. Who or Harry and the Hendersons? That's what I thought. SHOW MORE
