Most unlikely music inspiration?!


Question: OK get ready to laugh. Before I tell my story heres a little list of my favorite bands, you will understand why its so funny - Lamb Of God, Killswitch Engage, As I Lay Dying, Unearth, Bleeding Through, Haste The Day.

So one day I was flipping through channels while screwing around with my guitar, and came acoss Hannah Montana. Normally I would change it instantly but she was playing an accoustic guitar. Not only that but it sounded pretty good actually. So I looked at what chords she was using, and they were fingerings I wouldve never thought would sound good together. I played through "her" song a few times until I got a bright idea of what would sound good next if it was a metalcore song (you know, the songs that start out soft and accoustic then kick in the distortion and gets people moshing). So yea, thanks to Hannah Montana my band has a new kick a** song. LOL and actually I started watching the show, its not too bad really.

Do you have any weird/off the wall inspirations?

i almost decided not to read your entire story when i saw what your favorite bands were, but i did anyway...sorry and beyond the point yeah...hannah montana? nice. how'd your bandmates take it when you told them where you got the idea for the new song?
the most outlandish part of your story is that you starting watching the show and "its not too bad really"
some wierd off the wall insportation is you i should do that more lololol
ok, i agree with the first reply. and thats all I have to say lol. no, I have gotten ispirations from products. I'm in advertising, and to write an ad you have to see what else is out there, and so i look at... a roll of tape, and imagine what I could make for an ad for the tape, or a marker, or coffee. I can't say i've gotten an inspiration for a song though... atleast not yet.
Reminds me of the time I was listening to a very talented local metal band, the song sounded familiar and when they burst into the chorus of "Burn, Baby Burn!" I fell over laughing. A crunching, metal version of an old disco tune.

I have a friend who is a producer, a multi instrumentalist who is always instructing people to "spend a year listening to what you hate, you'll be surprised what inspires you".
LOL...wow...
I came up with a bunch of riffs while watching Spirited Away.
Kinda random, right? The end product was a kind of slow, heavy strumming and picking combo. I thought it sounded cool, but it was weird to be inspired by an anime.
god man. thats really about as off the wall as you can get. nothing i got is really close to that. i mean, primus and pixies stuff lol but not hannah montanna... i laugh when my sister watches that but i guess if it worked then power to ya. i dunno i messed around with a riff i was trying after i heard the commercial for i think valtrex? i dunno male enhancement commercial with all the whistling.

ended up a rotten song but kinda fun to play... i guess its still in the closet as a true song though.
