What's your favorite band(s) to listen to when playing games?

Daber · Mar 13th 2013

Hey Guys, I just wanted to see what bands all the Bros and Broettes listen to when they are in the zone playing their game.

My bands over the years have included:
Coheed and Cambria (WoW and Skyrim)
Rise Against (Timesplitters)
Dragonforce (Dynasty Warriors series)
Asking Alexandria (Black Ops 2)
Thrift Shop (Borderlands 2)

Everything else is random genres and random games.

So what do all of you Bros and Broettes listen to?

I quite like to listen to Three days grace while playing shooters, Iron maiden for Zelda, Trivium for Dynasty warriors/ Mortal combat and that's about it :P

Daber · Mar 13th 2013

Haha when you said Iron Maiden for the Zelda, all I'm thinking of is Run to the Hills.

Run to the hills!
Run for your lifes!!!!!

Upon A Burning Body/Pierce The Veil/Suicide Silence (WoW)
Big Chocolate/Skrillex/Animals As Leaders (Assassin's Creed)
Macklemore + Ryan Lewis/iwrestledabearonce(Kingdom Hearts, GTA, Far Cry 3)
As well as any other metal, punk, opera or soundtrack to movies like Godfather, Jurassic Park, LotR, PotC, also Game of Thrones theme song!

Shoot'em up is probably a lot of System of a Down, Acid Bath(Don't look them up) and Clutch, my favorite metal bands ever.
More adventure is probably Mumford and Sons, Alt J and Lumineers, favorite non-metal bands.

Nubcake-sama · Mar 14th 2013

Depends. For "KILL ALL THESE MOTHERFUCKERS WITH BULLETS." I prefer songs like Whiplash, Seek and Destroy, Metallica in general.
When it comes to RPGs I usually find some random adventuring music, or something slower paced.
When it comes to Touhou, if you don't play their music while playing the game than you shouldn't be alive.
That's about it.

Mxichigan · Mar 14th 2013

Action games/FPS - The ghost inside, King Conquer, Chelsea grin, etc. \m/

Racing games/Misc games (Forza, Need for speed, GTA) - Waka Flocka, Odd future, any hip hop really
