NEWS: Code Geass: Akito the Exiled's New Promo Streamed

I for one am pretty pumped about this OAV. I also think the music is a pretty good fit for Code Geass too. It may be a different story once I see it though.

It's a unusual and fairly daring choice for something like this, but it could have such a cool, distinct feel. I could imagine it helping to given the battles a dangerous, chaotic feel. I can understand why other people might find it alienating. The more adventurous schools of jazz aren't very accessible.

as right as it might be that this form of jazz might not be the most accessible one, i think that- once you get past the confusion and raw energy- it is easier to lose yourself in music like that. i don't have the slightest clue as to whose records i should track down to listen to it at home but whenever i hear this sort of jazz i immediately connect to it. you need no theoretical knowledge to appreciate it because it's just so out there that it simply disregards most rules. it's no wonder that a lot of the more experimental bands in extreme music tend to reference free jazz.

Experimental jazz can be like some people to heavy metal (not Japanese pseudo-heavy metal).

Just waiting to read "international release" in one of these articles...
