Drunkard's Walk Forums

Not for me - for another GM.

The setup: GURPS In Nomine, Mercurian with Weirdness Magnet. The GM wants to have Lucifer (and a few of his Princes) drop by uninvited for a poker night. What's the appropriate music?

Ideas so far:

• Sympathy for The Devil, by The Rolling Stones [size=smaller](obvious song is obvious)[/size]
  
• The Devil Went Down to Georgia, by The Charlie Daniels Band
  
• Spanish Train, by Chris de Burgh
  

Any more?

them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of
the same sovereign, servants of the same law."

The song that served as the soundtrack for the video of the RC Blackbird model in the General/General videos thread -- "Angels" by Within Temptation -- might be worth considering.

The Angelzoom cover of Linkin Park's "Crawling in My Skin" has a beautiful sound that becomes positively creepy when contrasted with the lyrics. Actually, given the subject? Anything by Angelzoom fits with In Nomine. A fair amount of Epica, and if you can find it, Coven 13 should also be good. Also, I love the name of Coven13's label: Akashic Records.

Oh, and the Xenosaga soundtracks! The Testament theme and the Jin/Margulus fight theme from Xenosaga II are particularly good, thouhgh the latter is a little energetic for a friendly game of cards.
