What songs you listen to when playing Lotro?

[cryles]

Usually I don't listen to music while playing Lotro, but when soloing some Rare Elite or some instance I like to get boosted with uptempo tracks form Korn...

ARE YOU REAAADY!? -- korn (Blind)

If I am in a raid I will turn sound off so I can hear the leader at all times. Sometimes I can't hear him over the sound affects during battle and with music on I never hear him.

If I'm just wandering around Middle Earth, doing a solo skirmish or an old school instance solo I'll just listen to whatever is on TV. I have my PC set up in living room right beside it so I can watch Hockey while gaming

[Eartholloth]

I dont listen to music while playing cause for me it's too distracting.

[Hirandiel]

Sometimes I pick something random from my library but generally it's folk metal/ death metal/ thrash or something similar.

- Eluveitie's new album "Helvetios" has been getting lots of play in the past week
- Amon Amarth's discography, particularly the albums "Versus the World", "With Oden on Our Side", "Twilight of the Thundergod", and "Sutur Rising"
- Battlelore (some of their music has Tolkien themed lyrics, plus there is a nice instrumental called "Horns of Gondor")
- Ensiferum has some pretty epic sounding songs, my favorite being "Into the Battle"
- Demonaz's album "March of the Norse"
- Kreator's classic "Enemy of God"
- Wolf is a cool Swedish metal band with sort of a throwback feel to it, songs like "I Will Kill Again" are nice for orc slaying.

There's also some random stuff in there like Crashdiet, Versailles and Airbourne.

I listen to Lotro's music while playing Lotro. I'm still not tired of it. :P

[StickyPits]

There's nothing quite like slaughtering orcs to the tune of 'All You Need Is Love'! I mostly listen to Beatles stuff, or alternatively a loop of the intro of Baba O'Riley and Requiem of a Dream. I used to listen to Star Wars music too, but after so many people in my kin ran off to SWTOR I cut down on that...

Pure epicness. Great to listen to in fellowship/raids.
Add rep if you like

[Iyalim]

When my hubby walks into the room, he can tell what I'm doing based on what's playing on my Ipad 2.

At this point there are only 1 of 2 things I am doing.

1. Gathering mats for alts. I play some nice jazz radio.

or

2. Leveling up an alt. I play some classic rock radio.

[Ceremony]

I'm a rocker, and lived the life until i was about 30, and i have all in game music off all the time. I don't like anything soft or easy. I am liable to be listening to a lot of things when playing the game, but i whipped up the following playlist as it relates to the game or myself personally.

http://pl.st/p/1000237579

Track 1 - My sexy hunter out cruisin' around
Track's - 2,3 are definitely when i think about Turbine.
Track 4 - Me, as i am different than anyone i have ever met or known, and most people dont get me.
Track 5 - My first wife "backstage" Barbara, evil you were.
Track 6 - Tamara. Been a lotta' year's, such a waste. RIP baby.
Track 7 - Me and my Tascam noodling around with an old Dokken song a few years ago. Yeah, i got chop's.

Creative lmao +rep

I usually listen to the LOTRO soundtrack, as I like all the music and the sounds etc. But when playing with a Warden, I turn on iTunes and put it on shuffle just to drown out his incessant shouting. -_-

It's usually a mix of 70s and 80s rock.

[Anarkhos_PT]

When im on a killing rampange i like to have in the background Take No Prisioners(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9UeLylS_eA) from Megadeth or Holy Wars... The Punishment Due(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9d4ui9q7eDM). Makes me feel more invencible lol

[Kerkat]

For the most part, I listen to the game soundtrack while playing. It's lovely and I hope they commission more music from Thomas for the upcoming expansion. I was disappointed to discover Isengard had no new themes to play.

Other times, I put my iTunes on shuffle and everything from Mozart to disco to punk to old rock plays for me.

[mephysto777]

In-game music bores me to death, especially during prolonged gameplay in the same general areas. Variety is the spice of life. That having been said, I listen to Pandora mostly (I'm subbed to it, so no commercials either).

During the fall festival, when burrowing on way-to-many alts, I created a station based on Ghosts N Stuff by deadmau5... that was epic - made the destival for me pretty much by itself.

In general, I usually listen to trip hop (Tricky, Massive Attack, etc) or dubstep (Skrillex, Foreign Beggars, etc) depending on what mood I'm in, I have stations set up for both. Both types of music have a nice get-things-done drive to them. =)

[lotrofan97]

I listen to the LOTRO soundtrack for the most part.

However, if I want to listen to something else I usually put my personal library on random. I listen to anything from classical, to rock, pop, jazz, folk, pretty much anything.

I really like to listen to Thousand Foot Krutch's new album "The End is Where We Begin" while playing LOTRO as well. I also like the LOTR film soundtracks.

There are so many things I could name.

[Whart]

Lonely Mountain Band's two albums, of course

[buckins]

Hedwig and the Angry Inch OST

or

Twilight Zone by golden earring, on loop

Cognitive Dissonance podcast

[Aydee]

Not because it's relevant to the game, but good "pump" music.
Drop Kick Murphys
Real McKenzies
Flogging Mollies
NoFX

Lotsa punk and the like.

Something about playing LOTRO and grinding a quest when "The Workers Song" from Drop Kicks starts playing. Irony perhaps?

[stserjtsrj]

I like listening to metal with playing. Anything heavy is good to kill mobs by. If we every make to Mordor I plan on playing "Strorm the Gates of Hell" from Demon Hunter.

[Ceremony]

Hehe anyone listen to A day to remember?

[Lothloriel]

I don't listen to anything other than in-game music. Especially now with the new music in Riders of Rohan which is awesome!

[WhatFor]

i find my way to the strange parts of youtube and listen to a lot of lectures and conspiracy documentaries.
i also listen to online radio personalities such as Tim Conway Jr. and Phil Hendrie.
when all else fails i throw together a playlist.
once in a while i just listen to the game sound.

[Defiant1]

Radiohead and now when I hear their songs I think of the game lol. I also listen to NPR while playing.

[lordzaresh]

When I am leveling, I listen to Nightwish ------->http://youtu.be/8VgLKXD-BoY
Tarja is an amazing singer. She hypes me to get to 75 faster o.o
Someone got me stuck to Nightcore style of music, I also like to listen to them. The style is like Scorpiomist on the 10 cup of coffee, check them out --------->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngLKD8jH2MY
What songs do you listen to?

Soo funny! I saw the title of your thread and thought, "Well, I'll post in here that I listen to Nightwish, and no one will know who they are", and then I saw your post xD I thought it was very neat Listening to Wish I Had an Angel right now mate Cheers

[SjsharksBoy]

Mostly Two Steps From Hell songs. It makes grinding actually kinda fun.

Agree, Nightwish is awesome. I also have a huge soft-spot for Leaves' Eyes -- Liv Kristine's voice is just incredible.

When making items and stuff for the game, its (depending on mood):
A) random trance and house music -- Morgan Page, Deadmau5, etc.
B) Cradle of Filth.
C) Battlestar Galactica soundtracks
D) LOTR / LOTRO soundtracts

[Cithryth]

I usually only listen to non-LOTRO or LOTR music on my hunter, Sagewood, for some reason. When I do listen to non-LOTR music, I listen to:

Röyksopp
Clark
Aphex Twin
Floex
C418

I have yet to buy C418's new double-length album that came out this past Sunday, but I will get around to it this week!
