What songs make you think of DND?

[Bupp]

I have a lot, some parts nostalgia (it's what I was listening to at the time), and some parts "hey, that's a D&D song!".

Actually, I actually have a D&D playlist of these songs on my Spotify.

There could easily be 50 more songs on this playlist as well. It's a work in progress.

Alan Parsons project silence and I
Breaking Benjamin so cold ("hollow heroes separate as they run' )
Drowning pool let the bodies hit the floor
Eagles hotel California (basis for a modern adventure I ran)
Ellem kings and queens and vagabonds
Metallica wherever I roam (anthem of the murderhobo)
Ruelle monsters (and most of her other songs)
Rush bravado
Young summer we could be the heroes

The entire discography of Rhapsody of Fire (some of their early stuff was just under the name Rhapsody)

[video=youtube;SejsRiaVRqI]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SejsRiaVRqI[/video]

Starts with voice-over by Christopher Lee. I mean, COME ON!

"It was a good time for all creatures of the earth
But fate decreed that the dark prophecy of a demon knight
Could bring a tragic end to this peace scarring their lives forever
Shortly before his defeat in the last of the primordial wars
Between the heavens and hells the evil son of the Hell God Kron
Known as Nekron, withdrew to his lair in the underworld
There, sensing his impending death inscribed a testament
Of pure evil in seven black books
One by one six of these books were discovered through out the ages
However the seventh, last and most terrible of all contained
The secret of his resurrection
He commanded seven immortal demons to carry out his dark plan
But they were turned into stone by the angels of the crystal realms
And so his dreams slept with them until a time came
When the forces of evil would usurp the earth
Nekron would rule in the unholy name of cosmic chaos
And this time he would reign supreme!"

The Wizard - Black Sabbath

Another vote for the band "The Sword". They have an album called Warp Riders which sounds like a sci fantasy campaign arc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjKI_U9ENwU

But much of their stuff sounds very D&D.

 

[Adamant]

The Pinnacle by Kansas is one for me, also Invincible by Pat Benatar makes me think of Eberron, as well as a party fighting back to back.

Holy Grail - Hunters and Collectors
Unguarded Moment - The Church
The Riddle - Nik Kershaw

Other than artists mentioned previously in the thread, I'd say anything by Ronnie James Dio, especially with Rainbow.
