Vid & Multimedia Recs
Sorry for the lack of recs yesterday. I was figuring that in the four days leading up to the new episode (pause for gigantic \o/), I would do post-s1 recs on Monday, post-s2 recs on Tuesday, etc. But there just aren't that many s1 recs, so I'll do s1 and s2 together tomorrow.
In the meantime, have some recap vids and a fanmix to fan your anticipation of Thursday (another pause for gigantic \o/).
Title: And I Will Try (To Fix You)
Author/Artist: SecretlyToDream
Rating: Gen
Length/Word Count: 4:57
Warnings/Spoilers: Both general and specific for all aired episodes
Summary: Four years in five minutes.
Reccer's Comments: Not quite a Between the Seasons pick, but an excellent overview to prime us up for the new season. Looking back at where our boys have been, what they've survived, and a reminder that though the past season was a rough one, they're still together and they still love each other. This video author has done a remarkable job with the editing, using high quality clips and utilizing every note and pattern in a perfectly chosen soundtrack.
Reccer's Caveats: This video touches on all the major plot points over the four seasons. If you don't want to be spoiled for all the big reveals, don't watch it.
Title: Still Alive
Author/Artist: counteragent
Rating: PG
Length/Word Count: 3:08
Warnings/Spoilers: S3
Summary: A survey of (mostly S3) SPN fandom: Some wank, some politics, and a ton of awe-inspiring GENIUS.
Reccer's Comments: Awesome song to address the ups and downs of S3. Be sure to listen to the lyrics!
Reccer's Caveats: Be sure to watch in HQ.
Title: The Stand
Author/Artist: dragonfly-sg1
Rating: PG
Length: 3:16
Warnings/Spoilers: Spoilers up through 'Lucifer Rising'
Summary: The boys are back. (Trailer/promo)
Reccer's Comments: Everyone needs to watch it before Season 5 starts.
Reccer's Caveats: If the download link still works, you may need to simplify the filename to get it to play.
Title: SPN S4 PDQ (Pretty Darn Quick)
Author/Artist: ash48
Rating: PG
Length/Word Count: 1.20m/10.9mb
Warnings/Spoilers: Up to season 4 finale
Summary: It's coming! \O/
Reccer's Comments: Season 4 in 1.2 minutes.
Title: Above and Below
Author/Artist: counteragent
Rating: PG-13
Length/Word Count: 3:22
Warnings/Spoilers: S4
Summary: "Cause living makes me feel ashamed," (or, Sam and Dean's amazingly similar S4 storylines).
Reccer's Comments: In my opinion, covers the emotional gaps from NRFTW and Season Four with exceptional visual acuity.
Title: Love Song for the Apocalypse
Author/Artist: maychorian
Rating: PG13
Length/Word Count: 50 min.
Summary: Cheerful, upbeat songs about hell and the end of the world.
Reccer's Comments: These songs are all fun. Half of them are kind of post-season 3 and half are post-season 4.
This week's rec contributors, claudiapriscus, izhilzha, july_july_july, anonymous, caffienekitty, mymuseandi, feliciakw, ambersaigh, elerimc, fish_echo, cofax7, xyraeliemna, yaycoffee, and maychorian, don't need no steenkin' batches. All they need is their own awesome.
Help us keep the gen love going! Rec, rec, rec at the current rec submission post. This week's theme is Angels & Demons.
Current Progress: 0/50
