March 18, 200917 yr I see many MANY players likes to have hours and hours of grinding on runescape while hearing metal music? I see it a common denominator. Heard it several times. Veteran Cape Owner (10 year)
March 18, 200917 yr Indeed we do, although Disturbed and System of a Down isn't something you'd define as metal (plain load of **** for the latter, maybe). They usually talk about softcore stuff you see on the telly.
March 18, 200917 yr i like some metal music but i dont know about most of runescape players liking it. Gamertag: EFs Predator.Games I play: Halo 3, Halo wars.
March 18, 200917 yr My 'scaping library stretches from Bela Bartok to Opeth to Beethoven. I think Metal's becoming the new popular music rather then the music Runescape Players listen to.
March 18, 200917 yr No, not all Runescape players like Metal. Maybe a majority of them MIGHT do, but I've talked to loads who don't. There is no correlation between Metal and Runescape, it's a matter of personal taste. ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢ CAUTION ☢
March 18, 200917 yr Maybe this should go in Off-Topic music forum? But Metal music does get me through the hours of RS : 1593th to 99 Farming - July 08.
March 18, 200917 yr I suppose it depends on the exact definition of metal. For example... Death Metal? I'm not very fond of that. Black Label Society metal? Hells yeah. 8-) My Tip.it goals/achieves blog.
March 18, 200917 yr tbh ive been hearing the opposite... in my pk vids i have put even fairly soft metal and get flamed constantly by people who dont like the music, all the people i talk to tell me to put rap and [cabbage] in my vids.. and yes, while playing rs i listen to some pretty heavy stuff :)
March 18, 200917 yr Trance here, and from Yogosun's youtube vids he is the same It's tough at the top ;)
March 18, 200917 yr Yea I've noticed alot of Runescapers like metal too tbh, it does seem like the most popular choice. I listen to trance while 'Scaping :thumbup: 2376/2376 total achieved - May 2009 Retired Dec 2009
March 18, 200917 yr Not me :thumbsup: But on the subject, reading through Tip.it blogs comes up with evidence to support your theory, but i wouldnt say the whole of Rs null and void

March 18, 200917 yr I'm probably one of the biggest metal heads you'll ever meet, so yea I can vouch for that lol although now days I find myself watching movies or TV shows while playing, it seems to pass the time better. Metal is more for my car, and concerts, and everything else :thumbsup:
March 18, 200917 yr Yea I've noticed alot of Runescapers like metal too tbh, it does seem like the most popular choice. I listen to trance while 'Scaping :thumbup: Loser :P I listen to metal, personally :oops: "It's not a rest for me, it's a rest for the weights." - Dom Mazzetti
March 18, 200917 yr Just lately I've been using friends songs in videos but that's about it, when I play it depends what mood I'm in... Example; If I'm just killing 30 minutes before I'm going out to get my boogie on, some Lady GaGa will be on along with other dancing material.

March 18, 200917 yr I never really set a desired type of music to play when I'm on Runescape. I just open my media player, and leave it on shuffle/repeat. I have music genres such as Rap, J-Pop, Gothic, Alternative, Industrial Metal etc. I just download the music albums I like from hearing it on YouTube, or friends recommendations, and with over 7 days worth of playable music, I just enjoy what ever comes up :D I also disagree with the trend you have decided to bring up - sure, tons of people mention Disturbed and SOAD, but I also have spoken to a handful of people who talk about Fort Minor, Linkin Park etc... Everyone has different tastes in music - simple as.
March 18, 200917 yr I really *really* dislike metal music. I constantly am turning off pk video music because I find it distasteful. It's all pretty depressing and that's not really my thing.
March 18, 200917 yr I do listen to metal while Scaping, but I do listen to other things, like Punk or J-Pop. It's all about what the shuffle puts on.

March 18, 200917 yr Which variety of metal are you talking about? Its like saying, it would seem the majority of players seem to speak English I listen to random songs from my collection, but you could class about half of them as metal, but I call them rock.

March 18, 200917 yr I prefer rock. I get a headache if I listen to all that screamy death metal music. :P Some kinds of metal music I listen to sometimes though. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........
March 18, 200917 yr I dont really listen to 'Metal Music' A-such. I listen to stuff like 'You me at six'(off topic:friday 13th march, was IMMENCE! saw them live! 1 bruised rip and headbutted in the nose... gotta love random appearing mosh pits...-_-) or kings of leon, and im sorry but K.o.L are far from metal lol. But i can see what you mean, Most 'Gamers' do listen to rock music, but thats due to the video's. Gaming videos work better with rock/metal music and if someone starts to like the video they start to like the music also.

March 18, 200917 yr I'm not really a metal fan. I listen to a lot of different types of music, but I guess I'm just not angry enough for metal. 8-) When I'm 'scaping, I try to match my music to my activity: fast stuff if I'm running around an agility course, something more chill if I'm just fishing or something, etc. And sometimes I just listen to the in-game music, which I feel has vastly improved over time.
March 18, 200917 yr Hmm, pretty sure my music would be classed under metal. Other genres just don't appeal to me as much. Example L But I'm pretty sure it's not just rs players, there seems to be a larger percentage of people that like metal under gamers than under 'normal' people.
