Mood music

[qhorin]

Hey guys,

I was just wondering if anyone has a playlist or something they use while they play?

I realize that there's a CD in the original game package. I think the idea of specific mood music is great, however the execution is not (my group only lasted about two songs ...)

I think I'm gonna give some zombie movie OST a try next time we play, just have to find the right one.

That was pretty neat idea, wish I was around back then, I definitely would have contributed.... Oh well.

We can always turn this thread into a Vol. 2.

I found most of the songs and made a playlist on Grooveshark:

It's missing a few songs though. I couldn't find Goodbye with Stabbing Westward or Ritual with Amenra. I also included Thriller with Michael Jackson even though there was some dispute about it.

For Vol. 2 I think I'd pick For Whom the Bell Tolls with Metallica. It fit really well in the zombieland intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1uUHamXmUAI

Perhaps Vol 2 could be a compilation where each song is a theme for the different Heroes...

I would go with Red Right Hand for Jake Cartwright.

Take a litle walk to the edge of town
Go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms,
like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires,
in the humming wires
Hey man, you know
you're never coming back
Past the square, past the bridge,
past the mills, past the stacks
On a gathering storm comes
a tall handsome man
In a dusty black coat with
a red right hand


He'll wrap you in his arms,
tell you that you've been a good boy
He'll rekindle all the dreams
it took you a lifetime to destroy
He'll reach deep into the hole,
heal your shrinking soul
Hey buddy, you know you're
never ever coming back
He's a god, he's a man,
he's a ghost, he's a guru
They're whispering his name
through this disappearing land
But hidden in his coat
is a red right hand


You ain't got no money?
He'll get you some
You ain't got no car? He'll get you one
You ain't got no self-respect,
you feel like an insect
Well don't you worry buddy,
cause here he comes
Through the ghettos and the barrio
and the bowery and the slum
A shadow is cast wherever he stands
Stacks of green paper in his
red right hand


(Organ solo)


You'll see him in your nightmares,
you'll see him in your dreams
He'll appear out of nowhere but
he ain't what he seems
You'll see him in your head,
on the TV screen
And hey buddy, I'm warning
you to turn it off
He's a ghost, he's a god,
he's a man, he's a guru
You're one microscopic cog
in his catastrophic plan
Designed and directed by
his red right hand


(Organ solo)

Alternatively, Zombie Zoo by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Oh man, I just started playing but as soon as i got through my first game i new what music would be wicked to play but only if you wanna keep everyone on edge! Look for anything from Lustmord and/or Steve Roach. Mystic Chords and Sacred places is the only album i have from Steve Roach and it's dark stuff. Get the lighting just right and you can create some eerie environments!!

Our group always starts playing with the OST
afterwards we use all kinds of Movie soundtracks as long as it is a bit quiet and creepy or chaotic.

examples:
"an epic age" - The immediate

we also used "Electric worry" - clutch
it was used in commercials with L4D2

L4D 2 was an amazing Xbox 360 game. The first one was good as well.
