Songs for Grand Theft Auto kill rampages?
« on: 21 Oct 2005, 06:01 »

So I was playing GTA Vice City one time, and this one song I was listening to (I had the game's car radio turned off) got my blood pumping. Any of you characters have music to murder to?

Oh, and the song was "Us and Them" by Pink Floyd. It made me so sad that I decided to turn it into murderous energy. ^__^

Antistar by Massive attack and Talk Show Host by Radiohead. Not some electronic heavy shit, like Prodigy, but calm psycho stuff ^~.
 I made a playlist to listen to while playing hitman, and it mostly songs by Massive Attack.

"Smack My Bitch Up" by the Prodigy, or "Supermoves" by Overseer.

And whenever I played Vice City, Romeo Void's "Never Say Never" always seemed to come on whenever I got in a police chase. Fit the mood nicely.

Well when I played Vice City I heard The Unicorns, but they are more morbid than aggressive, so I would say RATM or McLusky.

Maybe even Xiu Xiu for more sadistic endearvours ;)

Oh and Karmacoma(the remix version) for brooding psycho fun.

I think these:

Stray Cats - Rumble In Brighton
Liquid Tension Experiment - Chewbacca
Symphony X - Sea Of Lies
Slipknot - People = Shit [no matter how much they suck, this will always be a great song for violnce]
Miles Davis - Orange
Roy Buchanan - The Heat of the Battle [better for sci-fi space battles and fighting dragons]
Faith No More - We Care A Lot
Rage Against The Machine - Killing In The Name Of... [seriously, same as slipknot]
Tomahawk - Sir, Yes Sir

Many more.

*EDIT* The song in Office Space when they are smashing the fax machine is Diemuthafuckadie! by Twiztid. But yeah, that is a great song for smashing face.

Once I had completed Vice City 100%, I kept a save game at the car showroom.

It would always start at the same time, therefore, I'd usually end up hearing the same tunes when I went on a random rampageS.

This meant that most of my crazy Deathsprees were done to IRON MAIDEN!!!

Heh, I always thought "Funky Shit" was an awesome song to kill people.  "High Roller" by The Crystal Method is a good one in the same vein, because it's actually downtempo and driving instead of just balls-out manic.

One time, some friends of mine were playing GTA3.  One of 'em punched in the weapons code (PS2 version), got one of those slo-mo power pills, went over to the computer, and cranked up...

 Vangelis - Chariots of Fire Theme

And, verily, limbs were forcibly detached from their former owners by the wrathful might of the sniper rifle, and yea, the blood of the innocent did spray in exuberant spurts upon the sidewalks.  And it was good.  Amen.

I also have a GTA playlist full of nothing but versions of Havah Nigilia...the Dick Dale surf guitar version, the Ivan Rebroff traditional Russian version, the one off the Snatch soundtrack, etc.

And Russian-style choral music is great too.  The Internationale, The Anthem of the Soviet Union, the Red Navy Hymn (remember Hunt for Red October?), etc.  So awesome.

And finally...Overseer - Supermoves.  Because I said so.

I think when the music is completely juxtaposed to the act it brings a sense of surrealism.

Therefore I would listen to Doris Day or Patsy Cline.

But that's been done to death by just about every bad horror/action/anything-with-death movie that features a homicidal guy who listens to classics. I don't know if that kind of juxtapostion is viable for creating that kind of effect anymore.

As long as the song used for juxtaposition isn't "It's a Wonderful World."  Fuck you, every two-bit hack filmmaker who buried that otherwise great Louis Armstrong (I'm looking at you, Michael Moore).

but the music sucks because the keyboards don't have the cold/mechanical sound they had but a wannabe techno sound that it's pathetic for Rammstein standars.

I do.

Kai mentioned Cattle Decapitation, but for GTA purposes only one of their tracks is really appropriate.

Yeah, agreed.  I listen to music behind most if not all of my video games, and  the music *must* be a non sequitur at some level.  SWAT3 + Mobb Deep, Raven Shield + Basement Jaxx, Raptor:Call of the Shadows + 26 Mixes for Cash, and of course HL2 + Boards of Canada.  Except the last one actually makes sense.

So really, you're subverting that part of the movie culture by playing video games ironically?
