I was just wondering what music you guys would suggest listening to while playing Spiral Knights. I guess I`ll start this off with my list. I would suggest: 1. Trapt - Contagious 2. Three Days Grace - Animal I`ve Become 3. Cocteau Twins - Alice (such a wonderful song) 4. Garbage - Parade 5. Alien Ant Farm - Courage 6. Anti Flag - This Is The End Aaaaand 7. Cold War Kids - Hang Me Up To Dry. I would`ve made the list longer but I wanted to keep it short. Enjoy ~ (:

Why?

Why would you listen to other music while playing this game? Spiral Knights has some of the most wonderful music ever composed for a video game?

I actually like the in-game music for the most part. However, individual song choice is a preference.
I usually listen to anime battle music (such as B13A or "Tsuna's Theme")

Music from The Ocarina of Time.

I don't know how you could possibly get bored of the in-game music, though.

I listen to the in-game soundtrack.

However, I will say from personal experience that the Command and Conquer: Red Alert 3 soundtrack goes well over almost anything, even the game that previously held my record for best OST. I'd recommend particular tracks, but when I tried writing a list it got too long, even if I limited myself to ambient or action tracks.

If I were not as lazy...

I'd personally recommend certain music from the Megaman Battle Network series (The WWW Area Theme from 2 is SO fitting when you're on a tough mission, or lord forbid, a shadow lair.)

The in-game soundtrack.

I listen to the in-game soundtrack. However, I listen to it with the actual in-game music muted and the mix of the in-game music playing on iTunes. Yo dawg, I heard you like the music in this game...

In the unlikely event that I'm not feelin' the knightly tunes, I do what I always do and listen to Stan Rogers, because he has a gorgeous voice that makes me melty in a totally-still-masculine wish-I-could-sing-like-that way. I mean, listen to that. Or this if you're into sea shanties (and I know you are!).

SOAD music fits in fine.
try listening Toxicity fighting a toxilargo, or on those other zombie/slime poison levels.
try Revenga, or maybe I-E-A-I-A-O when against vanaduke.
Radio/Video, maybe, when against the twins.

Don't bother

I don't think there's any music especially suited for playing Spiral Knights (except, you know, the actual in-game soundtrack). People will just list their own favourite music...

silence is awesome sometimes, altho u can hear ur surroundings

Oh hey, this again. Fun topic.

(Even though Mother 3 has already been posted) I've been using Earthbound a lot recently, with a little bit of Blazblue for Lockdown fun.

Trigun for when I feel like getting the guns out. (Hooray volcanic priest buffs!)

Bastion is still the perfect Snarbs music, Although I am leaning towards this for Vanaduke.

Loving this as general being awesome music.

Also Frost*.

My own suggestions.

If you want a dramatic music playing while fighting vanaduke or the Silent Legion boss, then this is what I'd recommend.

Requiem for a Dream - Clint Mansell
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSY4Yi2ypno

Hanging - Craig Armstrong
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ae8Wlzt-lds&feature=artist

Other songs which would apply to different situations:

If Ya Wanna - The Vaccines
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQKjI6395iU&ob=av2e

Pumped Up Kicks - Foster the People (Even though the meaning behind this is sad - it's an awesome song.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDTZ7iX4vTQ&ob=av3n

And some truly inspirational music:

Just a Dream - (Cover by Sam Tsui, Christina Grimmie and Kurt Schneider - all rights to them)
Instrumental (Epic) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QF1FPPS1S7k
Actual Cover - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2RA0vsZXf8

For Vanaduke Level i use:

For Vanaduke Level i use: StarFox 64: Boss battle Theme 2
I wish some of my friend could say "Enemy Shield Analyzed" and show me vanaduke health :c

if i have to spent lot of time on haven either i use Kakariko Village (from Ocarina of time) or Thorntail Hallow (from Starfox Adventures).

For minor boss battles i use: Maverick Boss Battle (Megaman X) Mid Boss theme (ocarina of time) or Into de dark night (Dawn of Sorrow - Castlevania)

idk i have a long list of playlist for some parts in the game. i constantly change the musics with the time.

in for the skrill

Either it's the in-game muzak or Skrillex. Especially on slime-based levels, for some reason. "Devil's Den" is the official Vana run song
