Feeling curious..

[TheLegendOfAra]

So, because I'm usually to lazy to throw an LFM up, and too impatient to wait for someone else to put an LFM up for what I want to run, I end up soloing a lot. And while I've been told I'm an excellent conversationalist, and a wonderful listener, it just so happens that talking to myself isn't as fun as you'd imagine. ;p

Rather than blow through hours of fluff I've heard/read 100 times before with ingame story lines, I've taken to listening to music while I solo in DDO. Usually something like this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7NKQ1Uhfrg Or maybe just some very easy Dubstep, like MtEden or Obsidia. Just something to keep me at pace and awake.

Which brings me to the object of this post: What(if you do) do you listen to while you game?

Also in case you are interested, The name of the band in the video is Coheed and Cambria and here's the other videos from that same concert series/thing. Enjoy

Thanks!

Amazingly we have Yoshida Kyodai in common. I just got back from Japan, and one of my friends there turned me onto them. They've now become a favorite of mine.

Haha I actually like most of what you shared.
I've a pretty broad taste in music thanks to my dad. He forced me to listen to his old record for years and years. Lol
I just have specific tastes for gaming music.
Mozart doesn't exactly jive well when you're trying to kill a Beholder from the inside..

For grinding, I like Damjan Mravunac's Storm, & Strings. Especially when I want to feel like I'm doing something awesome instead of running through a dungeon for the hundredth time.

For some weird reason, I find myself listening to Washington song (somewhat NSFW lyrics) when I run a raid that requires me to pay attention but is going well.

Of course, the internet is full of fine music that enhances my gaming experience regardless of situation.

[Zoda]

While in group I only listen to music if Trix is there, otherwise it is for soloing only.
My songs of choice are:
Enigma Dubz - Hard to smile for soloing on archer (the pace is just perfect for all the jumping around and abundant stepping )
Manowar - Warriors of the World for soloing on melee (it gives a free blitz charge every minute!)

[Cetus]

Motorhead, Disturbed, and Amon Amarth are great to listen to while playing.

Iron Maiden, Black Sabbath, and WASP are cycled in as well.

[TheLegendOfAra]

Seems people on Argo have really diverse music tastes. Just another reason why we're the best I suppose.

This song.. Holy hell that is amazing. Can't imagine listening to this is a raid though.
I'd be laughing way to hard to accomplish anything except dying repeatedly. lol

[TrinityTurtle]

I have all sorts of random music I turn on and play too. Especially if I'm in a lazy mood and am just running around grinding slayers out on a tr for extra xp while I'm waiting for something to happen, like my husband getting home to join me or the click finally saying time to go to work in the morning. Off the top of my head lately I've played DDO to Madonna, ICP, Disney soundtracks, Nickelback, Puscifier, Aqua, and random pandora channels I set up.

[1Soulless1]

I always have music playing. I have not had the in game sounds turned on since day one. Usually I listen to a little bit of everything but lately I have been on a huge Grendel kick

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8NbPVsrU74 <---Invisible Depths from FF-XIII-2 for shroud runs, mainly because its 15 minutes long and I just turn my voice off in there. =o]
