Thematic Music for Games

By Ebonrook, in Arkham Horror Second Edition

Someone should make an Ancient One card for Billy Joel

So far, The Mummy, Alien(s), and Sleepy Hollow soundtracks have turned up with good stuff.

Midnight Syndacite also turns out to be quite good. :)

The light at the end of the world seems to be a very lovecraftian title, indeed

Not to mention:

Like Gods Of The Sun

2010 marks the 20th anniversary of the UK doom titans My Dying Bride
Aug 26 2010

2010 marks the 20th anniversary of the UK doom titans My Dying Bride, and to commemorate two decades of doom & gloom, the band embarked upon a project to re-work familiar melodies & themes from My Dying Bride's extensive catalogue into long, flowing symphonic compositions, including new vocals & passages from Aaron Stainthorpe. These arrangements have been brought to life in co-operation with keyboard maestro Johnny Maudling (of Bal Sagoth fame) & will be released as 'Evinta', as both a 2 disc & special 3 disc set, each disc its own sprawling classical work spanning a large period of My Dying Bride's album material. The 3 disc set will also be accompanied by a specially limited 72 page hardback book featuring rare images & photographs from the band's personal archive from over the years.

"Evinta. A project almost 15 years in the making. An idea that has sat smouldering and never really had a reason to burn alive until now. 9 CDs worth of darkness recreated anew to mark 20 years of MDB. Music arranged to the soundscapes of sorrows past. Finally the 20th anniversary allows us to release this music in a form it has been desperately, woefully waiting for.
Enjoy the Darkness."

Sonds great :-) I'm always happy to listen to them. They're like a good wine, with the passing of years the quality of their music increases

I prefer post-metal / -rock.

To all fans of gothic/doom metal, I also highly recommend Tristania- Widow's Weeds. An excellent album.
