    Default Faction Songs

    I may have posted this before, but these are the songs I associate with my factions:

    Protectorate of Menoth: "Inquisition Symphony"/Apocalyptica

    Khador: "Goi, Rode, Goi!"/Arkona

    Skorne: "Through the Eye of Terror"/Bolt Thrower

    How about you folks out there?
    "Is that gasoline I smell, Mr. Gideon?"

    Cygnar: Thundersteel by Riot, thus the user name haha.

    Totally awesome (if a bit cheesy) American Power Metal from the 80's. Lots of talk of lightning and thunder and and smiting your foes and what not. Perfect.

    The obvious choice for Farrow Minions = Black Sabbath - War Pigs


    But I think they need something more death/viking metal.

    Sturm and Drang = ARCH ENEMY - My Apocalypse OR Acrostic - Two Minds

    Arkadius = Degradead - Genetic Waste OR Ripping Flesh - Obsessed to Create

    Carver = Pathology - Creation Of Mass Destruction OR Krisiun - H O G

    Thanks for that - giving it a listen now.

    And for the Talion Charter "A pirates life for me"

    Cryx = We Swarm - The Glitch Mob

    Trying to think of an emo/I hate everything song for the retribution. Something like Glad that its over by 12 Rods. Perhaps The Cells by The Servant. The chord progression is somewhat fatalistic in there.

    Khador - Moskau by Rammstein (someone had to say it).
    Menoth - Don't Tame Your Soul by Grendel (that song actually made me start the faction...)

    Can't really think for Skorne and Legion...

    In general I love playing "Soldiers of the Wasteland" by DragonForce whenever I'm going to a tournament. Kind of gets me into the head space of your basic grunt fighting in these wars among the factions. For Cygnar, I think Stryker's theme should be "Fly with the Black Swan" by Sonata Arctica

    for me what comes to mind is

    Trollbloods "I will Not Bow" Breaking Benjamin
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9P_Um...eature=related

    its hard for mercs with how many and varied there casters are but I thing this one sums it up nicely
    "This is War" from 30 seconds to mars
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXCcb...eature=related

    For Menoth "Lets watch this city burn" by Hollywood undead always comes to mind
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVPq5XxshUM

    Cryx has to be "Hand of Doom" by Manowarar
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ex8dmquJ1o

    for Khador has to be "Die With Honor" by Manowar

    thats all I can come up with ....for now

    I think Cryx would be well suited by Ligeti's "Requiem"

    At first, I was tempted to lean towards Russian composers for Khador (obviously), but I settled on the Dies Irae from Verdi's "Requiem"

    still haven't decided on Cygnar and Menoth, though...

    edit: Retribution would be Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring"

    Cygnar, I think, would be "Night on Bald Mountain" by Mussorgsky. Reminds me of a thunderstorm.

    Finally, Menoth, soundtrack courtesy of Frank Ticheli's "Angles in the Architecture"

    Ahh, of course, a thread about music themes for the factions and it's filled with metal. How klichee.
    I, however, think differently:

    Llaese resistance:
    Steve Jablonsky - It's our fight

    Protectorate of Menoth:
    Clint Mansell - Lux Aeterna (disregard the video)

    Cryx:
    Steve Jablonsky - The Fallen

    Skorne:
    Tyler Bates - The Hot Gates

    Cygnar:
    Reso - Otacon



    Edit: Maybe we should ask the mods to move the thread, it's terribly off-topic here.

    Just listened to Through the Eye of Terror and I thought it would be perfect for pButcher. Gonna have to try it during a game. (Or, you know, whip out some chaos marines.)

    Well most of Grim Angus' spells and abilities are lyrics in Front 242's - Headhunter.

    Cryx/Skarre - On Stirring Seas of Salted Blood (The Black Dahlia Murder) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vi9NeylQfWE
    Ritual Of Condemnation
    Oceans of madness darkened,
    Alone on hell she rides,
    Lichen, undead, and rotten,
    Dripping and dignified.
    She combs with violence upon the wailing storm,
    This spectral ship of doomed purgation barrels on awry.

    On stirring seas of salted blood,
    Condemned to forge her sails forevermore,
    Enslaved, her hull will never reach the shores
    Damning these waters of irony filth

    'Neath the stench of crimson winds,
    Her sails of flesh betorn.
    Red skeletons are oaring,
    The plasma stains their bones.
    Her rusting cannons fire blindly in the mist,
    This haunted vessel lost and damned,
    The prisoners of her endless quest.
    A burial at ancient sea that cannot rest in ****ing peace,
    The crew of wraithlike revenants merely seek peace and reverence from purgatorial permanence.
    Their cursed bondage has no end,
    On they ride through the throes of endless night
    Her will never dies,

    The compass pointing straight to hell,
    And that is where they?re going.
    Beaten by curling waves of red,
    The storm,
    No signs of slowing now.

    On stirring seas of salted blood,
    Condemned to forge her sails forevermore,
    Enslaved, her hull will never reach the shores
    Damning these waters of irony filth

    Scabbed with the blood of ones they have killed,
    The ghosts of war must soldier on.

    For my two factions I would say
    Cygnar - Queen: Flash
    Trolls - Tubthumper: I get knocked down

    Demons and Wizards - the side project of Hansi Kürsch(I don't believe there are people who don't know who he is). It's debut album "Demons and Wizards" just permeated with the spirit of Protectorate - it just runs through the thing. Every time I start painting something, I turn it on. It is a pure genius.

    Heaven Denies - this is the thing and the whole of the thing. Also, for me its a High Reclaimer theme(apparently the time when he left to desert to be reborn)
    Poor Man's Crusade - Vindictus theme
    Blood on My Hands - Testament theme

    And so does the rest of the album, except maybe "Fiddler on the Green"/
    Try it!

    Fixed!

    The Sisters of Mercy has Cryx and Khador covered with "This Corrosion" and "Dominion/Mother Russia," respectively. If not only for their titles.

    For some reason I associate Skorne with Parabol and Parabola by Tool, but I think it's just the whole soul collecting/ pain... thing at work there.
    Also for some reason I imagine that Immortals make the sounds from the intro when they open their mouths...

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_z2O2...eature=related

    I haven't much thought of it for any of the other factions though I will say that Flogging Molly's the Lightning Storm is easily applicable to Cygnar for more than the obvious reasons. And any of their stuff about sailing ships and such works for pirates.
