Brutal Legend soundtrack - what's missing?

[Ansem-The-Wise]

Iron Maiden is definitely missing, but I can do without Metallica.

 

[the protaginist]

I wouldn't have minded "Wild Side" by Motley Crue, but that soundtrack is epic indeed.

 

[Grassassassin]

Aside from Iron Maiden and Metallica I would of liked to see some Kreator,Sodom and Death. The soundtrack is still great though, nice to see Carcass, Skeletonwitch and OverKill as well.

no 'Master of Puppets'!? No 'Fuel'?!?!?!?!?

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I would have gone with "One", or "For Whom the Bell Tolls" or "Fade to Black" or even something from Death Magnetic over lamenting the lack of "Fuel".

Well, it's not that bad...
GIMME FYOO GIMME FIYA GIMME DAT WICHEYE DISYA
OOOOO YEEHEAA

But think of what it could do in the right context! Or even better, get the S&M version of Fuel in there.

yea come to think of it, it would make awesome video game music. i can't help but make fun of his voice, tho. me and the dudes in my band do it all the time.

"right here is where he'd put one of his YAEEEYEEEEAAAA OOOOO EEEYe-HEAAAA"

 

[Grassassassin]

I am disappointed by the lack of Technical Death Metal. Having some Necrophagist or Gorod in there would have made it an amazing game.

But I am pleased that Coroner got in the game, IMHO, the only good band on there.

Also, no Nu-Metal. Hurrah!

This too,it would be amazing if bands like Necrophagist,Gorod and Nile were in there as well.

 

[Ziltoid]

Kyuss or Meshuggah would have been nice. But then again, I doubt I'll play it.

Meshuggah is so good. Also would have liked to see Anata and Opeth.

 

[Bored Tomatoe]

I dunno... They've got Mastodon and Dethklok... Maybe DevilDriver or Rammstein?
EDIT: I'm a bit disappointed that they only have one Dethklok song though... And it's not fucking Hatredcopter!

 

[300lb. Samoan]

OK so here's the list so far of missing bands we want in BL2

DevilDriver
Rammstein
Anata
Opeth
Metallica (maybe, I don't see them agreeing to the rights anyway)
Meshuggah
maybe Kyuss (I love the shit out of Kyuss but I'd listen to them playing Psychonauts rather than a heavy metal murder fest
Carcass
Skeletonwitch
OverKill
Iron Maiden
ManOWar
Corrosion Of Conformity
"Badlands" by Metal Church
Dio
Gorgoroth
High on Fire
Led Zepp
The fuckin Sword (fucking LOVE those guys!)

and I'm adding "Book of heavy Metal" by Dream Evil along with some Electric Wizard

... I think we'd be set at that point.

 

[Lord Beautiful]

They get points for the Tenacious D tracks, but lose points for including DragonForce.

 

[DJude]

A Lack of Metallica (Metal's in the name guys!), Megadeth, and Iron Maiden of Course (You named the main character after their mascot...but they don't get to be in it?)

Other than that, its pretty much a near-perfect soundtrack. Already Downloaded *cough* I mean BOUGHT IN A MUSIC STORE WITH CASH most of the game's soundtrack. I plan to listen to it til I get the game.

me too, after the soundtrack list was released, i went and "bought" most of these songs and have been listening to them ever since

also your right, its a shame that neither Metallica or Iron Maiden is in the game

 

[Shugaazer]

I wouldn't have minded "Wild Side" by Motley Crue, but that soundtrack is epic indeed.

Wild Side would be an awesome addition to this.

I'd say when it comes to the near-impossible task of picking a hard-rock/metal list that everyone will appreciate, this comes pretty damn close. A game that demands that your speaker system be cranked up to 11 and doesn't have plastic guitars? I'm sold!

 

[Fritzvalt]

White Zombie. I understand that Rob's on there, but White Zombie was so much better than any of his solo stuff. I'm taking birth of metal era stuff like "Black Sunshine," or "Thunderkiss 65."

Also, more Maiden.

 

[Fritzvalt]

I am just stupidly pleased by the inclusion of 'The Metal' and 'Master Exploder' from the D themselves. If the latter is not the badass end to a badass bossfight, I will be very, very upset. And if the former is not a theme for something else godly... then... then... You Can't Kill The Metal!!!

"The Metal," was the first song I looked for on that list. Hell, it seems like the whole game is a reference to it.

 

[Nadlice]

Cough *OPETH*cough. Opeth should be a like a drug... FINISH YOUR OWN DAMN SIMILE

 

[TSED]

POINTS GAINED:
"Cathode Ray Sunshine" Dark Tranquillity
"Frost" Enslaved
"Loke" Enslaved
"Witches" Candlemass


POINTS LOST:
"Angels Don't Kill" Children of Bodom
"Crack the Skye" Mastodon
"Free Your Hate" KMFDM
"Goliaths Disarm Their Davids" In Flames (mostly because the later works tainted their earlier works and now ALL OF IT SOUNDS SO TERRIBLE RETROACTIVELY)
"Her Ghost in the Fog" Cradle of Filth
"Murmaider" Dethklok (The only thing Dethklok is good for is lulz, not music. ):
"Progenies of the Great Apocalypse" Dimmu Borgir
"Pure Evil" Iced Earth (I am being unfair, I just can't stand power metal. I know they had to include SOME of it)
"Rip the System" KMFDM (NOT METAL WTH)
"Superbeast" Rob Zombie (WTH)
"The Beautiful People" Marilyn Manson (NOT METAL WTH)
"The Metal" Tenacious D (NOT METAL WTH ok yeah I get it Jack Black is the main character whatever FAIL ANYWAYS)
"Through the Fire and Flames" DragonForce (But SOME power metal does NOT JUSTIFY THIS!)
"When the Night Falls" Iced Earth (see "Pure Evil")




Conclusion: I am still buying this because it's friggin' Tim Schafer. The metalhead in me is sad at the playlist, though pleasantly surprised by not being quite as bad as his worst fears..

 

[Acaroid]

Have to agree, some doom would be good!

also I think they need some german thrash!!! kreator, sodom, destruction!!! imagine hacking people up with pleasure to kill in the background XD

 

[Asehujiko]

here is the soundtrack for Brutal Legend, it's pretty damn good BUT the music director states that she wants it to represent all categories of metal and I'm a little peaved that my favorite genre isn't very well represented:

What do you think, metalheads? What's missing from the Brutal Legend soundtrack? Tear it apart now, while they still have time to secure rights!

It is severely lacking in Amon Amarth, as said above. Also, it needs a PC version with WinAMP/VLC plugins.
