Ogre Tunes

original thread ↗


Hey everyone,

Not sure if this belongs in this category - What kind of music puts you in the mood for ogres?

Gonna have marathon painting session today and I need music inspiration   :lol:

Here's a good one, IMO - Motörhead's Eat the Rich.
"The best defense is a good offense." -General George S. Patton

"Everything in europe is comped badly. ETC is just 7th edition in disguise." -Shimmergloom from Da Warpath, on comp

Hmmm, I for one don't always pick music that feels army specific, but last night I worked on my ogres for a while and in that time I listened to Dvorak, The Vandals, and The Real Mckenzies. I guess if we go with 2 of 3 and give that Dvorak was already in the player then my ogres seem to have drawn on my punk collection.

Ogres don't music and neither do I.

While I agree with Cleavelander "fluff wise" I can't resist playing along.

"I'm Fat" by Weird Al

and if the lads are feeling frisky either "Fat-Bottomed Girls" by Queen or "Big Bottom" by Spinal Tap
 :P
A fifth pet gnoblar?!? So that's George and Gracie; the twins Bud and Lou and their newest friend Groucho.

The LotR soundtrack is always a classic IMO, nothing gets me in more of a motivated mood than hearing some of that stuff. Works for studying cellular biology too  :D

I think my recording of a bunch of fat guys yelling and screaming does the job quite nicely. I had to edit out the wheezing and coughing as it isn't very Ogre-like, but otherwise its exactly how ogres sound.

Disturbed - Indestructible.

I'm a little weird I know. But i can almost see my Tyrant sitting in the middle of the battle field singing.
“Every broken enemy will know
That their opponent had to be invincible
Take a last look around while you're alive
I'm an indestructible master of war!”
While empire thrust their spears into his gut, and him shrugging them off then bashing their heads in like it was nothing. I think it's the perfect song for them.
Come over for dinner, we're having... YOU.

Oh man.  This brought tears to my eyes.  Haven't laughed like that in some time.  Perhaps my slaughtermaster will have to be converted to carry an inhaler.

Lotr, part when the elephants are attacking on the battlefield : )
Who will be the next Khan in the Ogre Kingdoms?
You people have no culture. I say that in the most benevolent and loving way possible.  :P

When my family storm in my room and asks me why I was laughing so hard that it woke them up, I'm blaming you  :P

Another good soundtrack that I though of is the 300 one, specifically the Immortal fight number. Gives me the chills every time.

Finntroll or Ensiferum or Moonsorrow. :) Would listen to those when playing ogres. They just sound right to my ear. :D

Also, one that I've tried is: Yodeling. ;D

'And so did the Ogres march to war, the enemy did not fear the marching horde, but the sound of their yodeling. It stroke fear into the hearts of even the greatest heros..'

Well, who wouldn't want to run away when someone is yodeling. :D

Dear lord...

Yodeling is perfect. The sound of ironshod feet, the thundering pads of Bear-cats, and the yodeling of the Ogres. Many are the thinlings that this has been the last thing they hear.

I just bellow over whatever music my opponent puts on... :lol:
you want some good loud folk metal, try some equilibrium or eisfariam.
This is what I think of when my ogres charge.

That was a link worth visiting!
See These Bones by Nada Surf. It has nothing to do with Ogres but something just clicks.
If it looks like food an' it smells like food an' it sounds like food an' it feels like... oh what the hell, I'll just eat it an' be done with it.

My armies are Tyranids and Ogres. Yes, I was slightly hungry when I discovered the hobby.

Squeaky, my first pet Gnoblar!
Stronky, Squeaky's brother, is here to help any romantically challenged gnoblars... for a very shiny thing of course.
I'd have to say either lord of the rings, bill hicks standup or just kerrang radio
Just make a simple cake, and this time if someone's going to jump out of it, make sure you put them in after you cook it.
