PC Music to Slay By -- what songs do you listen to when playing 7D2D?

You guys need to broaden your horizons.
Try something completely out of place, like some Big Band from the 30s and 40s or some soft classical.
Don't knock it until you've tried it!


Well not exactly 30 or 40´s but Fallout Radio goes well with a lot of games. Glenn Miller isn´t exactly game music for me, but i like it.

Absolutely, that's the exact you feeling you get. It's hard to put to words, but there's something about it that makes you feel like a badass. Maybe more like a psychopath... but still a badass.

 
WOW, I have seen some great suggestions,  and SEVERAL  from singers/bands/groups that I wasn't familiar with.  I sampled some tracks yesterday and thinking how to best add them into My now growling playlist (pun intended).   I have a game play scheduled with at least 2 of My usual group,  we last stopped play the night before a Hordenight.  I think I will get some good feedback on the extra music I gleaned from the suggestions I've seen so far. 

Also,  I am VERY familiar with the Fallout music,  I became a Betty Hutton fan because of it,  and Sinatra was something I could remember hearing My Dad listen to and I ended up purchasing a few CD's from odd locations maybe 5-6 years ago because of the Fallout exposure (pun intended again).  

I will also very strongly agree that I MUST be able to hear the game sounds too though,  I'm noticing in Alpha 20 that the zombies will 'sometimes' wait to growl or snarl only once they reach out and claw their prey (Me); so for Me at least hearing the game sound is also vital.   So I balance the playlist sound with an eye toward keeping the game sounds still recognisable.   I already have to stay on edge because one of My usual gamers tends to scream  in a high pitch whenever He is surprised during gameplay  (which is freaking hilarious too).

Now THIS is the best music.  Live reactions from people who you play with that scream at the least little thing.

That particular Player  ( who I also count as among one of My best friends)  has an issue with...dogs,  so the bark of the 'rot-weilers' in the game sends him whirling around and calling out..'DOGS,  We GOT DOGS"... then what usually follows is a few words of Expletives and often a Scream  (or two...sometimes three)  as He tends to scramble in a panic to gun them down,  or run away to a better vantage point.   I shouldn't laugh at a friend dealing with some personal issues within the game,  but He really reaches a high pitch of genuine panic for a few seconds.  Often described as shrill, and "other sexist terms" that I don't encourage.  But yes,  I snicker a bit too when he "loses his cool"

 
Nothing like having someone reading you a book while you're killin and lootin..

right now i'm listening to the Reacher series, but previously listened to a bunch from King..

(Dark Tower was great)

good times.

 
I listen to Dark Ambient playlists on Youtube and Spotify, I don't remember most of the artists but one of them is Atrium Carceri I think. They're generally like 15 minute long tracks of quiet ambient horror music, it really enhances the atmosphere of dread and isolation when you're picking through the ruins of a town or city. Make sure to turn the volume to about 1/3, they are not meant to be played at full volume, just as background noise
