[QUOTE="Kashell, post: 1867313, member: 21398"] Most definatly. Sometimes we go from place to place and those sessions we don't have music. I find songs with lyrics hard to integrate as well. If you space them out and keep the lyric songs limited, though, you can have a very nice set of music. Here's the small but throughly comprehensive list of good songs (with lyrics) that could fit very nicely into D&D sessions. The New Chevelle CD - This Type of Thinking Could Do Us In - is a great CD overall, but more importantly, contains several very 'battle-like' songs for D&D. A good lyric song for battles is "Let The Bodies Hit the Floor" by Drowning Pool. Yellowcard has a handful of songs that I plug in at a few places. Within Temptation 's stuff is all really good, some battle, some not. It's a very Evanescence type of band...goth rock, that whole thing. Our group has personally overplayed this stuff though, so we're sick of it. Besides that however, (and despite the fact that I own tons of music) these are the few songs with lyrics that stand out in my mind for D&D really in a generic sense. Pink Floyd tops my list for number of lyric songs for typical, non-battle type music. Besides that, I use some assortments of Final Fantasy type lyrical music. If you're really on a witch-hunt for some non-battle, lyrical music, you might check out Three Doors Down, Dave Matthew Band, and maybe even some Bela Flec / Victor Wooten. [/QUOTE]
