Music for the game

Do you guys listen to music when you are playing Go? Well I do. As a matter of fact, I even chose my KGS-name “AmonAmarth” by the music I listen to when I play Go. I used to listen to old classics (like “killing me softly…” ;-) ) but now that I outgrew that phase I listen to Metal mainly, and to be more accurate to “Disturbed”, “In Flames”, “Cannibal Corpse” or, as my nickname implies, “Amon Amarth”.
I don’t know why, but I think especially Viking Metal with its repeated battle calls and stuff like that gets me into the right mood… So, if somebody wants to find out whether or not I am going to play aggressive or calmly you should check out my last.fm-account to see what I am just listening to ;-)

Ah, I thought I’d make a list of songs suitable for playing Go the Metal-style ;-) Well, here it is:

  • “Kill or be Killed” by “Biohazard”
  • “I will kill you” by “Cannibal Corpse”
  • “Make them suffer” by “Cannibal Corpse”
  • “Killing Me” by “Drowning pool” (well, that one is risky ;-) )
  • “Kill you” by “Korn”
  • “Hail and Kill” by “Manowar”
  • “Killing in The Name” by “Rage against the Machine”
  • “Kill the Assholes” by “System of a Down”
  • “Think” by “Drowning Pool”

Well, as you can see, I am more of a kill-all-or-lose-it-all kind of person ;-)… But isn’t that way more fun than playing it safe?
