This for when a party is going on, this for when you start, and finally this for goblin seiges.

And here is some random songs for other occasions...

Eluveitie - Inis Mona
Thyrfing - Home Again
Ensiferum - One More Magic Potion

These songs work for Dwarf Fortress.

I find the (modern) Battlestar Galactica soundtrack works well most of the time. Especially if you can time a siege with the right track.

FINNTROLL - Trollhammeren

Wouldn't Grottans Barn be a more fitting Finntroll song to DF dwarves?

[English translation:]

Children Of The Cave

Between black shadows there is a place without sun
Where the birds have never sang
Below the earth live a damned people
Long ago banished

"Now the time has come to peer through
The door that has always been closed.
Like wolves we shall eat
Out in the lands of Man."

Axes in hands, rotten teeth in mouth
The throng gather at the edge of the forest

The ravens scream from the darkness of the forest
"The children of the cave have come!"

After a thousand moons the crowd march forward
Nothing can stop this hunger

Not here yet, but closer than yesterday
Hear how they sing.

Children of the Cave!
Hungry Wolves!
Children of the Cave!

The ravens scream from the darkness of the forest
"The children of the cave have come!"


Of course you people might be playing the game the sissy way. :P

( Done )

If you replace all mentions of " daughter" with " masterwork" this is effectively the theme song to your average trantum spiral.

Youtube was so kind to delete almost all their videos, even those on their official channel and that of their record label because WMG believes that the original artists and their record label have no rights to things they created in the first place and started swinging with lawsuits for people who didn't see it their way so no youtube link for this one. For the record, WMG are the ones demanding that they should be reimbursed every time one of "their" songs is played on guitar hero or rock band.

Enough off topic ranting against corrupt corporations, here's a song about stuck-ins, weapon twisting, [blood covering], and martial trance.

This makes me think of DF now:

Maybe it's the name. There are other songs from the same soundtrack that would probably fit as well.
