goddamn I keep thinking back to how Rival Schools - United by Fate was a game I loved and then I found out that there was a band called Rival Schools and their first album was called United By Fate and it just... blew my friggin mind
like, i found out using... what was it, Audiogalaxy at university to download music?? and was looking for the OST for Rival Schools, and found a track called Travel By Telephone (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqVUDA2TFtI) and was like "I don't remember this in the game??"
but I goddamn loved it, so I went looking for more of the OST just like "dang it's probably a wrong labelled track so I'll never know what the actual band or song is because it rules and I wanna know more"
and then found another song from the album, "Everything Has Its Point" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuI0sbUSHTg
at this point I was like "...huh... it... it couldn't possibly be that there's a band called Rival Schools?..."
so I looked it up.
Mind = blown at that point. I HAD to buy the album.
so I did. and I still have it. and I still adore it and listen to it.
