Gareth The Great Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Have you discovered any great bands or music tracks through gaming? Some games have brilliant soundtracks. Red Dead Redemption led me to the song, Far Away. The Borderlands led me to The Heavy, which is a fantastic rock band. Tony Hawk's games always had great soundtracks back in the day. I found Primus and The Dead Kennedys through one of those games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatman Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 That's a great question. I always thought it was a great marketing move by The Rolling Stones to put Gimme Shelter on C.O.D. to get to a new generation of fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snarky-Guru Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 All the games in the Grand Theft Auto franchise have appealing music, but "San Andreas" and "Vice City" are a cut above the others. "San Andreas" led me to discover Rage Against the Machine. "Vice City" had a ton of older songs that I'd never heard before like Iron Maiden's 2 Minutes to Midnight and Toto's Africa.

Ogmore Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 I discovered AFI through the Madden. I'm usually more of a hard rock guy and wouldn't have found their music had it not been for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
