TWD Music Appreciation Thread
[This thread may take a moment to load]
Just a quick thread I wanted to whip up in honor of those composers and artists who work hard to give us ambiance and music. Here is my favorite song in the series so far:
This brought music into my life: thank you, Anadel!
I just love this song. Every time he says "In the Water" and the piano plays, I get the shivers... and the depressing look on Clementine's face as the song plays... shivers I get vertigo every time...

one of my favourite songs was this, it was perfect for the badass moment when Lee killed all the walkers to get to the Marsh House.
That moment... when I died in that scene...
What a way to kill the moment! AH HA HA HA (I'm so punny today!)!
This one definitely. With everything terrible that happened in Episode 3, to hear Chuck just play something so mellow but dark and murky sounding was just crazy.
Taioo
I'm a sucker for piano music. There is much skill with this one.
Can anyone find the music that plays throughout the cabin part of Season 2?
Check out MikonReborn on youtube, he/she has all sorts of ambiance and music from TWD.
Thanks
Omg yess! Same here! I loved that moment
How can we forget this moment:
Bad Dog
OK I'm done posting my own stuff; it's all up to you to keep this thread alive: DO ME PROUD!
What scene was this in?
The part where Sam the Dog jumps you for food. It's titled, Bad Dog.
No problem! I like MikonReborn.
That's what I thought by the name but I don't remember hearing any music lol
Heart pumping moments.
RUN!
Can we talk about songs that we feel could be applied very well to the game? I really think that "This is War," by 30 seconds to mars fits the series fairly well.
As long as it applies to the Walking Dead in some way (the video in your case) you can use it. Montages, Tributes, or anything that isn't in the OST is fine as long as it is WD related. All I have to say is watch for spoilers before posting please.
Maybe you panicked to much to hear it? That is the main reason I made this thread: most music in games go unnoticed or unappreciated.
My favourite soundtrack is still the TWD season 2 menu theme
Cool, I was actually going to make a topic of this nature right after I saw this video. Weird timing.
The song is amazing, and the scene it plays over is amazing. Nothing more needs to be said about that one.
Kenny's sacrifice music... haters gonna hate all they want, I think it's a great track to go along with a great scene(or two).
The Last Moments
Probably. It was very unexpected for me and I did panicky! But for most of the other music, I did hear
Can someone help me out?
On the GOTY edition, it gave me the soundtrack to download. I downloaded it and I am confused. Like above, it says track 4 is titled "It's Over" yet on the GOTY soundtrack it is titled "Herschel's Farm". Alive Inside isn't also included.
But yes I love the music dearly. The score is amazing.
plays every video currently in the thread:
Ear is raped:
windows crashes
...Well, I didn't know what I was going to accomplish there...
So, I really like connecting the characters to the "tropes" the song lists.
Here's the song's tropes: The Soldier, The Civilian, The Martyr, The Victim, The Prophet, The Liar, The Honest, The Leader, The Pariah, The Victor, The Messiah
Here's the cast of characters that I would say are the main cast:Lee, Clementine, Kenny, Katja, Duck, Lily, Larry, Doug, Carley, Ben, Omid,Christa
"main" side characters: Mark, Chuck, Molly, Vernon
I'm going by protagonists here as well. I'm interested in who you would choose for each of the tropes.
For me:
The Soldier: Larry
The Civilian: Katja
The Martyr: Doug/Carley
The Victim: Mark
The Prophet: Chuck
The Liar: Ben
The Honest: Clementine/Duck
The Leader: Kenny
The Pariah: Lily (possibly also Molly?)
The Victor: Omid/Christa
The Messiah: Lee

Good one.
Another!
Now you got me crying again ;_;
Good haha jk
I got myyself crying again too
The track playing outside the drugstore with Doug (S1) really gave me the chills. I love that eerie atmo - what is the track title?
I love Clementine's score in any way. Love the new interpretation of it as the opening track of season 2.
Love this song to bits. o3o
Oh god, this song.
I NEED THIS SONG.
Oh.. this song, I love it too much.
The first one.
"DON'T CHU WAWLK AWAY FROM ME LEEE!"
And Kenny's sacrifice.
The Walking Feel.
Yeah I think In The Water is great. Also, for any other guitar players on this thread, here's the only tab I could find. The rhythms are way off, but the notes are all right.
The song that impacted me the most was very short. MikonReborn calls it "Found Them". It plays in Episode 5 when we finally see the outcome of Clementine's parents. But it really hit me hard when the dark version of Clementine's theme comes in.
But my FAVORITE song to come from The Walking Dead is the theme from 400 Days. The mysterious chords combined with all the hype I had for 400 Days and the trailer still give me chills.
