I listen to metal, rock, and alt while playing. Some fun gaming music. Andrew W.K.

Music I have found that doesn't fit.
Portishead - Makes you want to put a Las pistol to your head.
They Might be Giants - I get to distracted by the songs. Singing along.

Party hard was a cool track.

Have you lisened to Jesus built my hotrod? by the texas based Ministry?

Ah, Andrew W.K. I almost forgot about him

Good call

From C&C Red Alert? If yes then i <3 you

We often use the BSG soundtracks as great battle music, things like this (crank it right up btw... ):








And then there is the Imperial Guard anthem :




And then there is the other stuff:


brings Eldar to mind, fast and lethal.


like the necrons or the adeptus mechanicus

During gameplay our GW played LotR soundtrack and similar soundtracks

While painting it's either with a movie on or sometimes my exotica music going- Martin Denny Arthur Lyman and with some surf rock mixed in like the Space Cossacks.

dutch hardcore and darkcore: the deathmetal of techno!

WOO! DARK TECHNO! Sounds awesome

I normally like metal, but I find it too distracting to listen to while gaming. My preferences tend to run toward saoundtracks. ESPECIALLY Ace Combat.






Epic!

My flgs does not play music But while I paint I listen to Demon Hunter, Skillet, Thousandfoot Krutch.

When I told my wife about the group "Shirehorse"(which we have not heard of) her eyes lit up as we own Shire Horses

in any game I play in the heat of a battle I always reach for the 3 inches of blood, Amon Amarth, Lamb of God, or Slayer. they are my personal favorites for gaming. Then Clint Mansell - Lux Aeterna is also nigh on perfect for very very tense moments

I dunno if it's been mentioned yet, but the DoW2 soundtrack is actually pretty awesome




0:25 is the whole reason I ever touch the vile eldar in the game.

Music is too distracting. Every time there's ever music involved people start to zone out and don't really pay attention to the game anymore. Having background noise just muddles up the whole event in my experience.

ODEN BE PRAISED. for blessing use with metal.

i play metal when i play because when i play, i play to have fun and what more fun then watching you opponents khone Berserkers tearing though you like with LET THE BODES HIT THE FLOOR. blaring out loud in the background .

This thread seems to come up on a monthly basis. I wonder why it's not a sticky in one of the forums on here.

Oh, and just because, here is the anti-metal

( he he he i can just see a whole IG platoon sting that song)

The best music for an Inquisition force is Hammer to Fall, by Queen. The lyrics are so appropriate!

For Orks, hard rock, excuse me, HARD ROKK! AC/DC, Metallica, Motley Crue, etc.

Haha Ill have to listen to that, I do not really care for Queen. So of there songs just really annoy the out of me

My current girlfriend is in a cover band, so I've been listening to more Queen recently. I agree that a lot of Queen songs are annoying, but some of them are actually really good.

Queen's a great band and if you don't like them you're an objectively bad person.

Some songs are definitely better than others though.

Queen are awesome, but they have 3 songs that get overplayed to death

1. Bohemian Rhapsody
2. We Will Rock You
3. We Are The Champions

Ignore those and it's a much better band

Also, Princes of the Universe is a great 40K Queen song even if it is about Highlander.

Metal all day. Ive only ever lisened to music once while playing and it was Metallica. I like to lisen to music while painting more than while gaming.

Yes there are some, as with all music

Haha those three songs were good at first, but now hearing them for the X time they just annoy me

rammstein all the way get you in the mood for running over an army

Am I the only member of Dakka whose brain and ear drums have not been turned to a consistency of thin gruel by the likes Grungellikilla and Satannika

It is fine if you are all into that but personally would find it impossible to play a game with it in the background.

apologies Grunt missed your post
What is NPR please?

Any ways it is good old BBC Radio3 for me!
Not sure the gobbos appreciate Debussy
maybe they prefer Hugo Wolf

I play whatever comes to mind but me and my friend love to listen to music. I like Cursive, which is Indie but REALLY good. However, I mostly play one band as it is my Favorite, Chiodos.
Best Song Probably


Video is bland but the song is amazing.
I also like MSI, Isles and Glaciers, Gorillaz, and some other stuff.
