What is your POTCO music playlist?
 

Just wondering what some people listen to while playing POTCO. I've found that when I'm not chillin' on Driftwood listening to the notoriously relaxing in-game music there, that adding your own music helps to enhance the game experience. Playing fast-tempo music while battling Rem or boarding flags is suitable. Relaxing music (like steel drum beach music :P) helps while fishing or hanging around with guildies and friends. And epic music helps while sailing. I'll break the ice.

1.) Greenskeepers-Vagabond: any GTA 4 fan will know this! I just include it because I like it. :P

2.) Michael Jackson-Thriller: What is better for a game filled with undead and zombie dances than Thriller! (Add to official soundtrack, devs?)

3.) Metallica-Fade to Black: Ok, the epic guitar solo is PERFECT for boarding flagships.

4.) The Ramones-Blitzkreig Bop: I just like this song. :P

5.) The Gorillaz-Clint Eastwood: One of my favorite songs, plus, good for the preparations for invasions, usually because of the (sorta?) creepy intro

6.) Boys Noize-& Down: One of my favorites, my past in electronica music is brought out in this. A sorta dance meets electro song. Good for high-seas adventure! (Can't believe I just said that... :mybadki6: )

7.) Daft Punk-Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger: Another electronica classic, good for "lightning loot" or anytime you need high speed music.

8.) Drowning Pool-Bodies: A little hardcoreness anyone? A high energy hard rock song. Good for pulling a truckload of enemies at a time. Also good for any high velocity crew plunder.

9.) Eminem-Till I Collapse: I don't usually follow any Eminem songs, but this song from the MW2 trailer is alright. (Yes, I know it's older than that, but I like videogames, ok?) Good for any kind of battle that tests your abilities, like pulling two Thralls at one time.

10.) Deadmau5-The Reward is More Cheese: I just like the name. Best name ever. XD

11.) Guns N Roses-Welcome to the Jungle: Old, but a classic. Nice for plundering... well... The Jungle!



Post your own please. I'm also looking forward to googling Tayseth's Modest Mouse songs to see if I like them. :D:piratewheelgo2:

I listen to a number of songs while playing the game.
(Note, Chimera, I love that band too and often listen to them while playing POTCO!)
( I won't say songs, because there is just too many, but I will say some bands.)
The usual bands are these:
A Perfect Circle,
System Of A Down,
The Birthday Massacre,
Imogen Heap,
T.A.T.U.,
Hollywood Undead,
Red,
Celldweller/Pendulum
Breaking Benjamin,
Skillet,
Flyleaf,
And err, many more, haha. That's just a small sample from a huge list ;)

Hehe... the usual for me. Some Lady Gaga, Black Eyed Peas, and of course, All-American Rejects!!!

May be corny but sometimes I'll put on Emerson, Lake and Palmer's song Pirates.

I usually put on Black Eyed Peas, Gaga, Sandstorm by Darude, and Better Off Alone by Alice Deejay.

YAY! More songs from a very great Electronica artist I've found. :D

Deadmau5-Ghosts N Stuff

Deadmau5-Hi Friend (Pretty good beat and high energy song. I likes it in teh Minezors.)

Deadmau5-MOAR Ghosts N Stuff (Nice while trying to kill a Rage Ghost.)

And Slouyx, I LOVE SOAD! Very fast tempo songs, makes me feel alive. Chop Suey is, for some reason, my favorite. Not sure why. :P




NOTE: I only posted a few in the topic. I have an epic list that I am not at justice to add all of. Ohh, speaking of which,

Justice-DVNO

Justice-Waters of Nazareth

I usually play Hard rock LOUD music when i play the game because it keeps me pumped.

1) Owl City: Hello Seattle
Just a fantastic song.

2) The English Beat: Mirror In The Bathroom
Well... it's great.

3) Owl City: Fireflies
Owl City is an awesome band. :D

4) The English Beat: Twist And Crawl
What can I say, I like them.

5) Simple Plan: Generation
Cool trumpets in this.

6) Green Day: Christian's Inferno
Middle of the album, amazing.

7) Songs To Wear Pants To: Robot Pirates
In the almbum sweat pants... I know.

8) Owl City: Vanilla Twilight
I prefer chocolate, but vanilla's decent.

9) The English Beat: I Confess
Nice tune in this.

10) Simple Plan: Me Against The World
Sounds like an explosion of noise.

11) Talking Heads: Once In A Lifetime
Heads that talk. Unthinkable!

12) GLaDoS and Jonathan Coulton: Still Alive
Theme song of Portal, really cool.

13) Owl City: Hello Seattle (Remix)
Double the Seattle!

14) Green Day: The Static Age
Explicit but a nice song.

15) Owl City: To The Sky
I think you can see my favourite band... Green Day!

16) AFI: Prelude 12/12
Short but cool and dramatic.

17) Green Day: 21 Guns
A great ending song.

Overall, I LOVE my playlist. It's an exact hour jam-packed with my favourite bands and artists. :)

I liked Green Day for a while, before they turned all "Pop." :( Guess we have different tastes. :P

I don't really see how they've gone pop, hardly any of their songs are. But I do love Horshoes And Handgrenades for its thrashing feeling, although it's not a very clean song. Also St. Jimmy on the album American Idiot is great.

How did they turn Pop? American Idoit is an amazing album, and the songs are rock. I can see where you're coming from with 21 Guns, though, but IMO it's still a great song.

Anyway, I usually listen to 1813 and 1815 (Music Choice on demand) on Fios.

Ok, that one I like. :D The new album is just too... poppy to me. American Idiot was good, the new one isn't my cup o' tea. Definitely not something I would plunder to, catch my drift? As I said, I used to like them. I had that sweater from that older video. The striped one. Still do somewhere! :D

I can definitely not seeing anyone talking to Mr Sparrow with Green Day, but they are decent songs. I just have those songs because they're personal favourites. :)

I'm looking for that song from Halo 2. "Only the Strongest Shall Survive" or something? Anyways, I could imagine that would keep me going in POTCO. Anyone know the real name?:bookishfj7:

Are you thinking of Blow me Away by Breaking Benjamins?

That's it! - Goes to iTunes - Thanks! :D

Yup, got it. Got the Halo mix too, so an epic choral intro awaits! :D

EDIT: Just realized that I wasted a dollar. I have the Halo 2 soundtrack CD, apparently. Could've just ripped it with WMP. :mybadki6:

Hehe, I've got a bunch of songs up my sleeve for Potco. (no particular order)

1) Iridescent - Linkin Park. I just like this song. alot of people aren't liking the way they've been going with their new music, i just love their songs all around.

2)Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen. What can I say? Just possibly the BEST song ever written.

3) Hotel California - The Eagles. Epic guitar solo at the end, perfect for boss battles.

4) Animal I Have Become - Three Days Grace.

5) Colorblind - Overtone. Heard it while watching Invictus.

6) Wake Up - The Arcade Fire.

Meh, I have a lot more, I'm just too lazy to list them right now, but those are the usuals XD

More though

Some Funkytown here and there... Ya know how it goes ;)

No, usually, The Nosebleed Section by Hilltop Hoods. Like a G6, Just a Dream. Some Lady Gaga or Katy Perry. Mostly Hip-Hop, or Hip-Hop Rap.

Anyone here got The Black Eyed Peas new album? Its called The Beginning. I'm addicted to almost every song in this. Favorites are The Time(Dirty Bit), XOXOXO, Do It Like This (This song is so dirty, but its hilarious), Someday, Whenever, and Just Can't Get Enough.

Break Your Heart, Dirty Picture, and Dynamite by Taio Cruz.

Some Ke$ha is fun to throw in when I feel funkaayy. Lady GaGa never hurts either, and then I like Far East Movement (G6 and Rocketeer namely).

Ok, if I had one song that I had to listen to during POTCO, it would be Eminem's "I won't back down" Featuring Pink. I like to call it the theme song to Black Ops... LoL

That's just a few, I listen to lots of other music from these bands. I usally hate anything thats in the top 100.

I'm adding the Eminem song from CoD.


Won't Back Down - Eminem (Trailer song from Black Ops, also found in a zombie map Easter Egg.)

Also:
Welcome to the Jungle - Guns n Roses. Good for the jungles, I guess? XD
Requiem for a Dream - Clint Mansell. One of THE most epic songs around.
I Thought Inside Out - Chris Lake & Deadmau5. A nice trance/electronica song. It has that really trancey feel that makes you bob your head up and down every time.
Slayem (COD WAW Soundtrack) - Sean Murray. A short, but very epic and haunting piece. Nice for a lot of combat.
Zeros Alt (COD WAW Soundtrack) - Sean Murray. For a game set in WWII, this has a lot of synth in it! Pretty epic, not bad for sailing.

Also also:
The entire Call of Duty: Black Ops soundtrack.

fyi mates... i dont listen to music at all when playing pirates......
