I listen the dishwasher, because I am banned to the kitchen when playing a game with a lot of killing sounds and shouting in strange languages. Nothing for a relaxing evening in the living room....

Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
I listen to Death-, Trash- and Heavy Metal. This kind of music combined with the mass slaughtering of pixelsoldiers, creates a potential for running amok far superior to what a ordinary FPS-player is able to achieve.
I like to conquer.
Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
In the strategic map, it's always the vanilla EB music. The same usually goes for the tactical map, but there I sometimes throw in "Fortunate Son" by Creedence Clearwater or "White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane. That's, uh... EB-music, rock and psychedelic rock, respectively.

I must say, Britpop doesn't fit EB, but that's my flaw.

... from time to time one the operas from G. Puccini.
Towards the end of the book, the Moties quote an old story from Herodotus:
"Once there was a thief who was to be executed. As he was taken away he made a bargain with the king: In one year he would teach the king's favorite horse to sing hymns."
"The other prisoners watched the thief singing to the horse and laughed. 'You will not succeed,' they told him. 'No one can.' To which the thief replied, 'I have a year, and who knows what will happen in that time. The king might die. The horse might die. I might die. And perhaps the horse will learn to sing.'"

I must say, a bit of CCR is a f**king brilliant choice!!! One of the most under-rated bands ever in my opinion.Originally Posted by The Vicious Monkey

Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
I listen to the EB music. I just wish i could figure out how i could change the battle music to that of the SPQR mod... that battle music really gave me a rush everytime.

Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
EB music, since my PC doesn't take kindly to running other programs with EB
Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
I agree. That is on the part about my choice being good. I'm not of "their generation", so to say - so I can't really say much about whether they're underrated or not. But in any case, they're good, and that's good enough for me. ;) (And a positive thing with this is that my dad's a fan of them, and he had a "Best of CCR-CD", so I didn't have to go through the pain of aquiring it myself.)
I completely agree with this too. Horst might jump at the idea that someone might like CCR AND rap, but I do.I don't consider that real rap at all. The hip hop that I listen to never talks about money, cars, or hoes. They rap about everyday life things, each persons life story.
(...)
This is real old school classic. Common rapping about how he misses real hip hop, how now its all about gangs and shit. Listen to the whole song, you'd think he is talking about some girl but at the end is the twist.
Seriously I get embarrassed saying I like Hip Hop because people right away think of that stuff on the radio that is horrible and unoriginal. It's crazy how pop and rock and even rnb now have better and more clever lyrics and word play that rap.
Although it is fun listening to "MOVE B!TCH GET OUT THE WAY" while charging cavalry into a flank
Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
I'm not of "their generation" either, believe it or not I'm only 24. I can believe that some people like CCR and rap, just as I can believe that some people like cabbage and marmalade sandwiches.
To be honest though, one of the best gigs I ever went to was Ice T when he was touring with Body Count! I really got caught up with the atmosphere.

Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
Then I take the cake from the caketable of age. Only 19 and still able to sing "Fortunate Son" in my sleep.Or, at least I would, if the bloody song was in Swedish. And I could sleepsing - or sing at all, for that matter. Meh. At least I've got the lyrics memorized.
I think I will experiment a little more with music-unthought-of next time I get around to play. Which should be tomorrow. Ain't no way to win the jackpot without placing a wager, you know.
Re: What do you all listen to when playing EB?
While playing EB, I listen to what I usually listen to, my collection of heavy metal/punk whatever you call it : Metallica, Motorhead, Iron Maiden, AC/DC ....
