Music similar to the Metro 2033 OST?

Hey there everybody. I don't usually make new threads, but this is something that has been nagging at me over the past couple of weeks, and I was wondering if anyone here could lend a hand. What I want to know is essentially this: Do you know of any bands that perform music similar to that found in Metro 2033? (I have not yet played Last Light, so I can't really comment on whether that is included).

I've been looking around a bit, but I'm not the most musically savvy individual, and I can't seem to find anything. Now, I don't expect anyone to go and listen to the whole soundtrack just to help me out, so I've included a couple examples of the type of stuff I am looking for. Again, I'm sure there's a way to define this type of music, but I've never been good at describing that sort of stuff.




Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

You're looking for The Last of Us and its soundtrack my good friend.

Just don't read the comments if you haven't finished the game, chock full of spoilers.

Awesome, that's pretty much the kind of thing I was looking for. Also, thanks for the heads-up about spoilers. As someone who does not have a PS3 at the moment (looking to pick up a used one after the PS4 releases), but is very interested in TLoU, I've been desperately trying to avoid any sort of spoilers about this game.

I'm making it very easy for me, considering Metro and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. are more or less brother and sister, but the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. soundtrack is very similar. And bloody fantastic! I think it's what you are after.

Here's a selection:

End credits song for Call of Pripyat.

Plays in various locations in-game. Refers to some of the lore.

Various guitar songs the Stalkers will play around the campfire. Very atmospheric.

Funnily enough this song is soon to be used also in a video-game.

Might be a bit against forum politeness, considering it's an old thread, but I approve of your avatar, ZF. Cryostasis was awesome!
