DarkKnightCuron Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 As usual, a friend has asked me to paint another model for him, this time it's a Wolflord. Typically, I listen to a wide range of music, but I'm curious as to what you members of the pack listen to while you're painting your Space Wolves. Right now, I've managed to find some decent music from TURISAS (example: Holmgard and Beyond), but I'm eager to find more music for my (rather large) collection. Naturally, let's not break any rules here with the shady side of obtaining music, as I try to get music though 'legit' channels first. Just suggestions as far as groups and songs would do, methinks.

Hjaertrr Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Ah, there was a thread like this when I joined. Turisas of course Tyr Leafy green and mutton (youtube) Finntroll Alestorm Viking Skull ManoWar Blind Guardian Sonata Arctica Ragnorok Moonsorrow Korpiklaani Jormundgard Iced Earth Crimfall Ensiferum Dimmu Borgir Dragonforce Battlelore Amon Amarth Right that's my playlist exhausted. Some are more Norse-y than others, but they all do the trick.

stinkenheim Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 might get lynched for this but its what i listen to when i want to concentrate on my painting; Pink Floyd otherwise its Rise against, billy talent, gallows, system of a down, the clash, fall of troy... anything really. but i find Floyd is nice as you can hear it but you don't have to focus on it so i can still concentrate fully on my painting Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185831-space-wolf-ish-music-to-paint-to/#findComment-2197712 Share on other sites More sharing options...

magnusthetraitor Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 The Sword: Age of Winters Songs about battle, supernatural enemies, Odin, and all sorts of inspiring topics. You might have heard their song, Freya, on Guitar Hero. I can't recommend them enough.

Pink Floyd is the best, ever!!!! Led Zeppelin is good too. Any metal band is good for painting wolves, apart form Pink Floy, obviously ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185831-space-wolf-ish-music-to-paint-to/#findComment-2197961 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Bjoern Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I´ve found something (for me) new. Maybe Max will know them: Heidevolk Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185831-space-wolf-ish-music-to-paint-to/#findComment-2197983 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hfran Morkai Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I like Sabaton, not very Space Wolfy but most of their stuff has a war theme. Metal ftw!

Balroth Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 See, I'm the exact opposite. I can't listen to loud, hard music when I'm painting. I have to listen to something chilled out. And ideally it'll be something that I associate with the theme of the thing I'm painting. So for my Ultramarines, I'd go for songs with Gregorian chanting in them (volume quite low of course). For the Wolves (if I were to collect them) I'd probably go for the snowy winters of Fenris, and pick something like Sigur Ros. -B PS: Bought the first Ragnar omnibus trilogy yesterday and have finished the first book. Damned good read. William King really seems to understand the Space Wolves in a way that McNeil doesn't with the Ultramarines. Looking forward to getting to grips with the second book now.

Oddly enough, as long as the theme of the music fits what I'm painting, it really doesn't matter the tune or the volume with me: It all helps in the long run!

Terrahawk Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Interesting to see so many Finnish bands mentioned. Guess we have nailed down the harsh yet honourable northmen-attitude. ;) My recommendation: Dawn of War II Soundtrack. Edit: 400th post!

Natanael Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 When I panit I mostly listen to either Matisyahu, kind of reagge-rock, or something soft lite Joshua Radin, Taylor Swift or Regina Spector. Not what the usual "wiking-SW-stereotype-thingy" usually goes with :D But I seem to have left those days behind. No more heavy metal for me. Especially not when I paint. Cheers. !

Some are more Norse-y than others, but they all do the trick. Alestorm? For real? That's awesome. Mine is paltry compared to this.

Keercrevlis Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Believe it or not but Guns-n-Roses: Use your Illusions I & II. Especially "You could be mine" Have the whole image of the Terminator future scenes going through my mind while painting and thinking of the whole Apoc future thing, gets the blood flowing.
