I need your help creating a playlist

[WhiteNachos]

I have this card game I like to play called Smash Up. The general idea is that there's lots of different factions, like pirates, ninjas, zombies, wizards etc. Each faction has their own deck and everyone picks 2 decks, combines them and then the players fight over bases. So you can have things like time traveling ninjas vs. steam-punk wizards vs. zombie pirates. I think it's a lot of fun.

So anyway I want to make a playlist to play in the background while playing the game. Preferably I'd like to have one song for each faction. I'm going to list the factions and my current ideas for songs for them (if I thought of any). If any of you have any suggestions to fill in the blanks or if you have a better suggestion for a faction I've already done I'd love to hear it.

So here's the list

Zombies - Thriller
Robots - the theme from Terminator 2
Pirates - Shiver my Timbers (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WWdOjxoQro)
Ninjas - ?
Tricksters (think Leprechauns, goblins and gnomes) -?
Dinosaurs - Jurassic Park theme or Everybody do the Dinosaur
Aliens - ?
Wizards -?
Bear Cavalry -?
Steampunk - ?
Killer Plants - Something from Little Shop of Horrors
Ghosts - ? (I was thinking ghostbusters, but that's kind of anti ghost)
Cyborg Apes -?
Shapeshifters - Turning Japanese?
Spies - James Bond theme since the deck is basically the get around copyright version of James Bond anyway
Time Travelers - The Time Warp from Rocky Horror
Geeks - White and Nerdy by Weird Al
Giant Ants - Possibly Killer Queen by Queen since that's what the most powerful ant is called in the deck
Vampires -?
Werewolves -?
Mad Scientists ?

There's also a Cthulhu expansion I don't play with most of the time but sometimes I do.

The factions for that are

Miskatonic University
Minions of Cthulhu
Innsmouth
Elder Things

A couple Cthulhu songs in general could cover it since I never read the stories anyway.

So as you can see I got a lot of work to do, and I could use some help.

Edit:

There's an expansion for the game coming out in March, so I'd also like to get songs for those two (I won't actually put them in the soundtrack until I get the expansion but it's nice to be prepared.

The factions and my ideas are

Fairies - ?
Kitties -?
Princesses -?
Mythical Horses - Wild Horses by the Rolling Stones

Ummmmmmm...I don't know to tell you this delicately, so I'll be blunt. Turning Japanese is about masturbation.

Here, I'll help you out.

 

[Private Custard]

I have a suggestion for wizards.......it's pretty odd, as is anything from Ozric Tentacles. The way they structure their songs is brilliant though.

Depends what sort of wizards you're thinking of though. These ones would be a little on the dark side!

 

[Queen Michael]

Ummmmmmm...I don't know to tell you this delicately, so I'll be blunt. Turning Japanese is about masturbation.

It's not, actually. It's just that people started interpreting it that way, and now everyone's convinced it's what the writer meant. He denied the idea in an interview.

 

[Elfgore]

For vampires you could always do the classic, Cry Little Sister [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9tGjc5_NCs]. The theme from the vampire movie Lost Boys. If that isn't in the alley for what you want, there is We Only Come Out At Night [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aBoX_7vGtw], by Motionless in White.

For Werewolves, you got the awesome option of Werewolves of London [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDpYBT0XyvA], which as awesome.

That's about all I have for you know, I may look through my memory bank for more later.

Everything by Sabaton. BAM. You are welcome dude. And no I didn't read the OP. Once you ask my help for a playlist, the following things happen: I tell you my favorite bands.

Hammerfall, Sabaton, Iron Maiden, 3 Inches of Blood, Amon Amarth, Alice Cooper, ACDC, Rush etc etc etc.

Again you are welcome my young friend.

Whew. that was a bit of searching. Hope it helps.

 

[CrazyGirl17]

I got a few for ya:

Spoiler: Steam Punk

Spoiler: Pirates

Spoiler: Time Travel

Hope this helps!

 

[Hairless Mammoth]

Spoiler: For Mad science

Anything by Doctor Steel

Spoiler: Aliens

I know it's cheesy, but if it's too much I'd suggest: (Skip to 3:08 if your game gets really tense.)

Spoiler: Werewolves

I also second Metallica's Of Wolf and Man.

Spoiler: Wizards

Here's a powerful piece from FF9, except on a grand organ. Not quite magic wizards, but you could get a laugh out of everyone:

 

[WhiteNachos]

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I will comb through them all.

Spoiler: I think the steampunk choice is obvious

This is a great song, my only reservation is that while playing it with friends it might annoy my friends. That's not a knock against your song it's just what I'm guessing based on their taste in music (although I have been wrong about that before).

Again you are welcome my young friend.

You know I've actually wanted to broaden my taste in music so this actually helps me despite your best efforts

LOL. You are welcome my friend. Most of that stuff is heavy metal and hard rock. Yes my taste in music is that. If you don't like it, well that is a different issue for a different day. But I hope you like it. Start off with Iron Maiden, ACDC and Rush, they have a ton of nice stuff.

 

[WhiteNachos]

Oh yeah one thing I should've mentioned is that they're coming out with a new expansion in March

The factions for that one are

Fairies
Kitties
Princesses
Mythical Horses

Now obviously I'm not going to need the songs for these right away but hey it helps to be prepared.
