    Depends on certain things. Right now though its various tracks from the Valkyria Chronicles games.

    Well, I have a few songs just for combat, Dragonforce's Inhuman Rampage, Ozzy Osbourne's Killer of Giants & Thank God for the Bomb, Megadeth's Symphony of Destruction, stuff like that. For general listening though, well that is a wildly eclectic collection, as likely to be Stryper as ICP, Weird Al or Slayer, from the 60s to today.

    There've been a few times I would just listen to anime themes, like the opening to Arpeggio of Blue Steel. Rarely do I listen to something so totally off the wall that it doesn't fit the situation.

    Right now CSN and sometimes Y.

    Generally while playing I don't listen to music at all because I tend to lose track of things. I'm kind of a one-track-mind kind of guy, and multitasking is difficult for me. And STO requires multitasking. Well, to be any good at it it does. (Hint: I'm seldom good at it.)

      You are indeed a man of refined tastes. I also got to like Godsmack after I saw them at Carolina Rebellion last year (missed their tour with Shinedown, though).

      Try this one, too. Floor Jansen (After Forever, ReVamp, Nightwish) sings hard rock with Jørn Viggo Lofstad (Pagan's Mind).

      'I Stand Alone' is always to hand when I end up taking on whole ground adventure zones single.

      Oh gosh ... I actually have entire playlists that I've made for Winamp to run while doing STO. If it's metal, it might just be in there. XD Thrash metal, hair metal, hard rock. Shoot, even some older rock for variety. For the Winter Event, I also made a playlist that had a lot of classic crooners doing holiday songs.

      A few names to give you an idea: Municipal Waste, Lich King, Krokus, Judas Priest, Revocation, Queensryche, Pantera, Loverboy, Dokken. Even some Night Ranger! I've also been getting into an obscure death metal band called Timeghoul. I also have many tracks from Transformers: the Movie sprinkled into my playlists.

      I also have a thing for listening to the scores from the Empire Strikes Back, and the Black Hole, as well. XD Even Disco Star Wars.
      Resident TOS, G.I. Joe, Transformers and hair metal fangirl.

      Nice picks. Here's another good one:. Burning Witches.

      I'm fond of listening to some powerful voices in music where Marco Hietala is singing either directly or as supporting. There hasn't been many Nightwish songs where he has had his moment but he has been in other bands as featuring or directly in one or two instances.

      Infact i might listen to Storytime, Devil and the Deep Deark Ocean and The Islander on the Nightwish bid again.. and maybe Ghost lovescore? perhaps.

      Been on a Hayley Kiyoko kick lately. One might not think a cishet white dude could find something relatable in the music of an Asian TRIBBLE, but some feelings are just universal, and Hayley knows how to push those buttons. She's like Janelle Monae; not so much is musical style but as in both are pop performers who deserve to be WAY more popular than they currently are.
