This, this is exactly the feeling that i get. The same thing also happens at Majixx (Lain ost) and the piano version of Clubbed To death. And that sad edit song which i don't know the name of.
The albatross is a bird with oversized wings, after flying, once it touches the ground it is often unable to fly again and usually die on the ground. So the title “ballad of the albatross” is quite beautiful.
Listening to this song gives me the impression of being lost in orbit around Jupiter with nothing else to do but let gravity drag us with a huge planet in front of us that fills our field of vision with these famous specific colors and unreal the dark space behind us and infinity
@Alpaca Sparkle yes, but you'd have to prohibit that and censor it if you want to make the internet like that, at which point people who want the internet for that would just leave... It would be like a dictatorship, not that it's wrong... In the end there isn't 1 internet that people use for 1 type of content, it's really more like a cobweb of different types of people and content, it's just that most people tend to stick to the crappier side... The internet is vaster than the real world...
Inspired by the Rime of the Ancient Mariner where the albatross is used to symbolize an incurable burden or curse. In this case... Lain's. How did Konaka Chiaki in 1998 manage to make such obscure and complex yet perfect English references? Most of the anime industry *today* can't even enunciate english much less make accurate alternative metaphorical use of an english word like "albatross". Stuff like this is why Lain is a legendary anime.
@@restoredephraimpublication1540 bah, there’s shit anime in any decade. Gems like Lain were rare then, and they’re rare now. Changing demographics as perceived by the animation studios will of course shift the kind of shows being produced, and with the maturation of the industry they’re understanding the formula that makes money best. The anime of today are likely less art than product. But the animation studios are also getting bigger and richer, and are able to put some of that towards passion projects, usually films instead of television.
The Japanese used to learn much more English prior to the 90s, you’ll notice in older Japanese music they’re much more willing/able to sing in actual English. Prior to the bubble economy collapse many Japanese learned it from their parents who learned it to talk to US soldiers stationed in Japan, learned it in school so that they might do business with English speakers or alternatively they learned it overseas while studying abroad. With the collapse of their economy and less direct overseas deals between Japanese businesses (along with diminishing amounts of Japanese studying in the US and UK) less and less Japanese became proficient in English.
Huh? That's not an obscure reference. Albatross round one's neck is a common allusion, at least when I was in school. It'd be an easy find for any English lit fan. And
Don't reference anime gems like Lain and others to modern popculture anime for ur own sake. Modern anime production is much more saturated with shit due to cheap production methods being considered as good cashgrabs, gems are rare and hard to find
I'm still looking for a Psychological Anime on the level of Lain. I don't know if anybody has hit the level of Lain. I wait for the day somebody does. It changed me in ways I never thought possible. I connect to the Wired as homage to Lain.
@@red_response I think its also because partly it's one of these animes which doesnt take its viewership for stupid. Line is in its plot very scattered so you really have to use ur own gray matter to keep being engaged with it. Ghost in the Shell for example isn't the same but it does a very similar thing with visuals and related recurring elements of sometimes tonal nature for example And as for ur first point: Same dude lmao. Psycho Pass is kinda interesting altough rather edgy at points, also heard good things about "Texhnolyze" but didnt came to watch it yet :p
@@anton__r I'd like to watch Steins:Gate, atleast for reference. There's a few others I'd like to get under my belt, Ghost in the Machine is an absolute classic.
@@anton__r Anyone here try "Boogiepop Phantom" and "Boogiepop and Others"? Phantom in particular gave heavy Lain vibes with its old 90s-esque artstyle and chill OP, while "Others" is modern Madhouse work but still a mindbender.
Man, imagine being the first dislike. How much of an asshole you should be in order to do such a thing is incomprehensible. I condemn the first dislike when it happens. I hope it doesn't
I need a whole Lain inspired ambient album tbh
Hm
Echochamber
Ooohhh thanks for the idea.
Will take a while tho.
If I ever do make a Lain inspired Ambient album I will definitely credit you.
the whole lain soundtrack exists lol
I think I've seen lain songs, but never a whole album as far as i know
This piece has such a sad, marching vibe to it. Simple yet complex at the same time.
this seems like something Buckethead would play..
Kor from spilling the milk jumpscare
Perfect song for the final moments of an old scientist.
Let's all love lain.
sitting at the end of the world, reflecting on life, coming to terms with any regrets you might have. that's what this song feels like.
I can't listen to this, idk what it is but it gives me shivers, a strong feeling that something bad is going to happen, but it's a beautiful piece.

The internet is the best and the worst creation of the mankind.
This is how the loneliness probably sound like.
maybe that's just not possible though since people tend to like that stuff. You'd need to enforce what is suitable for the new internet maybe
capitalism's a bitch, eh?
