vld characters music headcanons
I'm writing a band fic (original i know) and I started thinking about what the main characters all listen to so I had to write it out
Lance:
We know he’s a pop / rap / r&b girlie. He loves what was cool in the 90s and 2000s. Fugees, Britney, Backstreet Boys, Amy Winehouse, Katy Perry etc.
Will randomly start dancing the choreography from his favorite music videos
Also loves classical music
Lance and Hunk listen to a lot of the same music since they grew up together
Keith:
Emo. You saw it coming. He has the Kellin Quinn hair.
Country - and not just our og emo boy Johnny Cash. Man will defend Dolly Parton with his entire heart.
Nu metal, which everyone makes fun of him for.
Ends up loving pop and r&b after Lance and Hunk make him listen to it
Pidge:
Electronic, obviously. Anything that goes wowowowowow m chk m chk beep boop. Ranges from obscure ass hard techno beats to Grimes
Also totally vibes with punk and pop punk. Black flag but also blink 182, yknow?
Weird metal / math rock / djent stuff
Hunk:
80s synth pop/rock!! Eurythmics, New Order, Depeche Mode, David Bowie
Modern alt pop - WILLOW, Clairo, IDK How
Overpowered singers - Queen, Nina Simone, Mariah Carey, Ariana Grande, Lizzo
He and Pidge jam out to old punk music together.
Shiro:
No one expects it, but he loves grunge. (He played rhythm guitar for his grunge band in high school)
He’s a huge Riot Grrrl enjoyer
Shiro and Keith listen to each others music a lot, though Shiro would never admit he likes it.
He and Hunk both love shoegaze.
Allura:
Idk what kind of music they had on Altea so this is just gonna be Earth stuff
She loves Florence + the Machine.
Pidge introduces her to electronic art pop and she ends up liking it a lot
Likes a little bit of everything, but her favorite genre is punk rock.
Coran:
Gets super into psychedelic music. Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, you name it.
Loves disco music. And dancing. He gets pretty disappointed when he finds out that people don’t go to the disco anymore.
FUNK.
They ALL love MARINA and Fleetwood Mac. Those artists are irresistible and I will die on this hill.

okay there is a bit of a story behind this one:
i'm very very interested in alien cultures, and i really wished they'd written more about traditional altean culture. I wanted to design some kind of dress for Allura but came up with nothing, so i took a bunch of aspects (example being the sleeve type, or neckline, etc.) and put them in a wheel spinner.
what allura is wearing here is what the results were. I tried making it look formal, but it just ended up looking kinda childish lol
which i love the idea of young allura, but that's not really what i was going for?? idk lmk your thoughts
i was looking on pinterest after that for a dress that i could draw her in instead, but i found this beautiful like. idk what i could even call it, but it instantly gave the perfect allura vibes. there was a lot of useless detail put into that drawing (there is the leo and aquarius constellations (leo for coran bc i feel like he would be and aquarius bc i saw someone say allura would be born on valentines day and i just fell in love with that idea sfygdugh)
and lastly for coran, i wasn't planning to draw him but apparently nothing went to plan with this drawing. so. anyway, i found this really cool looking cloak thing that reminds me of those old mailmen cloaks (i think??) and i thought "what if i made coran wear this" and so i did.
there is also detail there with the circular pin on his cloak, it means A in altean and i'm pretty sure its similar symbol to the galran/altean alliance which is pretty cool if i remembered it right lol
and underneath that the very *very* small writing literally just is coran's name. i dont know.
and lastly for anyone wondering, that altean down the bottom is literally just 'altean sketches' lmfao
(shh im allowed to be nerdy for a minute okay)
