That does it. Turn in your demon whip and prepare yourself for violence and bloodshed.

Dude, you just made me change CDs. That album is amazing, and as you say, full of D&D type imagery. With the lines about prison moons and such I always thought it would be really suited to a moody, atmospheric Spelljammer game. Maybe it's partly the colors of the album cover, but I have a vision of the game world being a habitable moon orbiting a red gas giant, with the prison moons being other, less hospitable moons of the gas giant. The big problem is that I'd wanna use the CD itself (sans the first track) to set the mood as well, and that might give away the plot.Talmun said:'In the court of the Crimson King' by King Crimson

The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
London is drowning-and I live by the river

Irish Traditionals are about as non-metal as you can get. There are some that are D&D-ish, but I've never taken an adventure from them.Samothdm said:I'd love to hear some other non-metal choices.
Headphones are your friend. Unless you work the phones, then hopefully the music you get stuck in your head is the good stuff.Talmun said:I'm jonesing to listen to it myself now, but I'm at work (shhhhh).
I'm surprised no one has listed any ELO or Allen Parsons Project, once you get past the somewhat dated aspects of the music, the imagery is very evocative of fantasy gaming.
