Gentlemen. I hope you have arrived. I am hoping to create the official Anthem of DF. After voting ceases (About a month) I will send the top 3 to Toady, for him to choose. We must do this game right men! I have already compiled several runners. Feel free to submit your own.

Misty Mountains Cold- Urist likes this for its Terrible Majesty

Diggy Diggy Hole- Urist likes this for its lyrics (Though we may have to talk about this with Yogscast)


GhastlyCrumb Tinies- Urist likes this for its realistic slathering of death

Tankard Basher- Urist likes this for its plentiful Booze 2 votes (Loudwhispers, Pisskop)

Strike the Earth- Urist likes this since its just too perfect 2 votes (Me, NAV)

Now, invite whoever you wish to join. The end Goal is for Toady to officially make this the Anthem

[NJW2000]

Ghastlycrumb tinies, heh - nope, that would just be a dwarven nursery rhyme.


PTW. Anyone thought of asking MiracleofSound about this?

If you want a realistic DF adventuremode quest, "they're taking the hobbits to Isengard" would be appropriate.

[Amperzand]

Right then.

Dwarves do not "dig holes". Kobolds dig holes. Dwarves dig legends.

I wrote a DF poem a long time ago, but it's nothing close to song, and the timing gets wobbly near the end anyway. Plus, to make it fit in any traditionally-sized time slot, it would have to be rapped instead of sung, and I don't think rap music fits well with dwarven culture. ...well, I don't think it does, anyway.

MUST... RESIST.... URGE.... TO DRAW..... BREAKDANCING CACAME......


No but seriosuly your right

[Loud Whispers]

This is a favourite. I'll try find the Kogan one, it's more sombre.

[Amperzand]

For that matter, a simple upgrade to the default music is pretty good.

E: This person put all the variants in a playlist here.

[NAV]

I nominate Strike the Earth by Booze Control.

Dude. That is sung by...by.... One of....THEM

[Andreus]

This list does not contain Korpiklaani - Wooden Pints. I therefore declare it invalid.

Glorious. Absolutely fantastic.

[LordPorkins]

Meh. I still think Strike the Earth is simply beautiful.

I vote for Misty Mountains Cold (If I can vote that is)

Never associated dwarves with heavy metal (Googled "Booze Control") music. I'm weird like that... huh.

I hope we are having fun here ;p I would hate this actually going official ;p Dwarf fortress should have an original nice, majestic soundtrack made by Hans Zimmer, John Williams, Paul Romero maybe? or someone awesome like that not some metal band song (my opinion, when I'm killing goblins and Elfs I don't have electrical guitars in my head xd weiiird) , someone should win the lottery and buy those people to make a few compositions ;p

[LordPorkins]

Well, the Official is kind a a pipe dream. Anyway, how did You not associate df and Metal? Death, Drunks, Depression, Depravity and Dementia! They are practically identical!
