Bardcore

I think I have some of this stuff or related stuff recommended to me somewhere on YouTube. Hasn't really caught my interest. YouTube recommends the weirdest stuff sometimes.

@Dannyalcatraz has apparently been waiting for someone to ask this question!

Surprisingly, the thought of using this stuff in a game never crossed my (conscious) mind! And some of it I just found recently.

In fact, until your thread, I didn’t even know hardcore was a genre.

The Harp Twins, their version of Iron Man.. A harp should really not do that kind of sounds, but yes, it would be fitting to have it start playing by itself with that distorted sound in a horror-game. Btw, they have done tons of covers of modern songs on harp.

Some more views:
Corvus Corax with a cover of Twilight of the Thundergod (by Amon Amarth). Live from Wacken open Air festival. Starts about 45 seconds in.


In Extremo - This Corrosion (cover of a Sisters of Mercy song)

Got monks?

I was going to suggest Gregorian as well

Not Bardcore, but two on the Harp

Comfortably Numb

Wish You Were Here

and one that's cheating by laying down up to 5 tracks, but I'd like to find it with 5 violinists...
Immigrant Song

saw that Dannyalcatraz inluded my tip as I posted it.. So I removed my suggestion of "Sweet Dreams" with Patty Gurdy.

If your campaign also includes blackpowder weapons, then this might work (cut the sound just before the 4-minute marka she starts talking)
