Music to listen while waiting for Skyrim

Wagner's Ring Cycle? What the...

The Ring Cycle is an epic saga conceived by Wagner. It is based on ancient Teutonic and Scandinavian legends. The same legends that influenced the work of Tolkien. The fourth part Gotterdammerung is particularly epic. :)

Sorry, I can't say I share your opinion. Orchestra sounds a lot more epic in my ears. Just listen to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrIYT-MrVaI.

Also... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZVebSr-MFM. Orchestra + metal band.

Edit: I'm not saying the Apocalyptica version is bad, I just don't think it's a epic as the original piece... or the other version I posted. :disguise:

The original sounds awesome too, i'm a band student and respect that kind of stuff, but I'm a metalhead so :P

If Ozric Tentacles are in the game I think I'll be looking for mushrooms, or floating seeds. One of the best band I ever saw live. :foodndrink:

This is my favorite musician/band of all time that suits Skyrim perfectly (there is a lot more of them tough) :whistling:

Bathory

Song to Hall Up High
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnYcK8Q6nqA
The Lake
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZMaqXMArTg

for something more battle suiting and overall brutal listen to Amon Amarth :tongue:


Bathrory- Added to list of favourite bands after listening to every song of theirs on YouTube.

Thanks!

The Sword.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vf57N_W3ZYU&feature=related.

Spoiler
A sword of fire and an axe of cold
Vision of the Sibyl has foretold
Armies gather on the battle-plain
All will fall and earth will die in flame

Here on the battle-plain
We will die in flame

In falcon's feathers soaring overhead
Choosing warriors among the dead
Twilight written in the runes of crones
Freya weeps upon her golden throne

Upon her golden throne
We wait for her alone
Call us unto you hall
Take us into your thrall

The battle rages, but they fight in vain
When all is done it must begin again.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tngP3QLkoHY.

Spoiler
So many men have fallen
So many more must die
Cut down like wheat beneath a scythe
And through our limbs may be weary
of ripping, slashing, cleaving blows
We face an endless host of foes

How heavy this axe
Burden carried from birth
Wrought in Stygian visions
By the gods of the earth

Upon the hallowed mountain
The gods convene
To mourn the death of our ancient queen
Keepers of sacred fire
Awaken from your sleep
Drink from the cup of memory


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RK0T30p86c0.

Spoiler
Waiting for dawn on the snow-covered tundra
Your foes lying dead at your feet
Look to the sky for a good star to guide you
And pray that the morning you'll meet

Tresses of fire
Skin white as snow
Promising pleasure
She brings only woe

In the far northern reaches
Where dark mountains rise high
Enchantress beseeches
That you give up your life

Witch of the wastes
Dancing on snows
Lord of the gallows
Takes what he's owed
A wisp of gossamer is all that remains...

I actually am listening to a lot of Ensiferum. Particuarly the more folk metal songs.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9h7j6BLUdc&feature=related (Which I was ironically listening to just before I saw this thread, and even thinking "Man, someone should start a thread about music that reminds them of Skyrim.)

And also:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKZd4U397M4&feature=related
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqZDJhnIxzc
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5T4wmpSFlHg&feature=related
And http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDT2Wq5z2bA

There are other songs of course, but those are the main ones.
