    Lately its been a lot of old school music, which is odd. Its odd because you'd think id be all metal and hard rock, you know, stuff like that.. but lately its been all Kansas, Nirvana, The offspring, 3 Doors Down, Warrent, Queen, Beastie Boys.. a lot of Beastie Boys, Anthrax, , B52's.....

    not like a day to remember and ax7, All That Remains and yeah...

    i know probably a bunch of lame sh**.. but who cares, i love it.

    what do you folks listen to? o_O

    the in game sounds are too good to have music playing over in my opinion. The graphics are obviously excellent, but the sound effects are way underrated. I love just wandering through the landscape and hearing my character run through snow one minute then onto a stone road the next, I love hearing birds chirp in the trees and running waterfalls as I go by, and I like hearing creatures like foxes and rabbits and moose go about their business. There is no game that comes close to the immersion Skyrim offers, I don't need music to be honest.

    Oh, and there's a 5 page thread already:

    haha, why not try listening to disfigured elegance, chelsea grin, whitechapel, carnifex, suicide silence, suffokate, thy art is murder, the black dahlia murder, emmure, acacia strain, oceano, the arcanum effect.

    By the way, this gets warriors pumped


    and for my mages

    Hey, there is nothing lame about Kansas, Nirvana, Queen and the Beastie Boys. We're talking about legends of rock here, that beats the pants off of A Day to Remember any day, though I do like them.

    Nothing like "Paul Revere" in the background when you're getting into a brawl at The Bee and Barb

    I actually listen to the ingame soundtrack. I love them IMO, and they are very suited to the game and it's atmosphere.

    If you play on the pc version, there are mods that improve the sounds, and some even add more realistic sounds, to practically every atmospheric sound in the game.

    The last time I played music over Skyrim, it was Epica's "Design Your Universe" album. Let me tell you, it was an experience I'll never forget! But really, any good symphonic metal band that has a lot of orchestral elements will intensify how the game feels.

    Also if you really want to laugh your ass of while playing Yakety Sax by Boots Randolf makes anything funny, especially if there's a struggling battle or hard effort of getting to something.
