Oil_in_my_veins 09-27-2003, 06:03 PM enough of the Comrie crap, now onto really "important" topics...
what is your pick for the Oilers new pregame song?
I liked the Vines song they played last year and that animated intro was cool but got old really fast (especially with the outdated Motley Crue theme song)
Here's my pick:
Gasoline by Audioslave
any suggestions?

Hate that song. That's what was played against Minny.
s7ark 09-27-2003, 06:56 PM Danko Jones - I Want You :yo:
I really hope you're joking... I have season's tickets this year and if i have to hear Danko at the start of each game I may have to start showing up late...
IceDragoon 09-27-2003, 08:40 PM "For those about to rock..." :yo:
:handclap: ...and roll ;)
*Shudders at the thought of the Oilers racing video*
Ugh.. that **** made me cringe :(
Oh yea... forgot to add my song
Metallica - For whom the bell tolls http://www.liquid-area.com/images/smilies/headbang.gif
Digger12 09-27-2003, 08:53 PM 'Snowbird' by Anne Murray?? Any takers?
Just once, I'd love to see it. :joker:
Digger12 09-27-2003, 08:57 PM Metallica - For whom the bell tolls http://www.liquid-area.com/images/smilies/headbang.gif
Like the smilie. :handclap:
Have to say no to the song though...starts off a bit too slow for me.
I'd go with Ride the Lightning myself...starts intense, never lets up.
thome_26 09-27-2003, 09:12 PM Gasoline by Audioslave
no
need something to get the crowd really into it - not get them tappin their toes on the floor and heads bobbing back and forth - needs to be MUCH quicker!
Party Hard would be ok, but still needs to be... I dunno.... catchier.... Party Hard sounds corny doesn't it?
for whom the bell tolls is also to slow....
Danko just is annoying IMO, lol
I'm trying to think of something... will post when I do...
Must say, lasts years song was great - kick start the heart was perfect
the video was cool the first time - so-so the second time, and painful everytime after that.....
nikeisevil 09-27-2003, 09:21 PM Umm...
How about "F**KED WITH A KNIFE" by Cannibal Corpse?
:rolleyes:
thome_26 09-27-2003, 09:34 PM Umm...
How about "F**KED WITH A KNIFE" by Cannibal Corpse?
:rolleyes:
lol, remember kids go to the games too..... you don't want to make them **** their pants before the game!
Digger12 09-27-2003, 09:46 PM Umm...
How about "F**KED WITH A KNIFE" by Cannibal Corpse?
:rolleyes:
Out of morbid curiousity, I looked up the lyrics for this 'song' on metrolyrics.com...
Oh dear.
I don't think we'll be seeing Faith Hill doing a cover of this ballad anytime soon. :blush:
Easilee 27 09-27-2003, 10:11 PM I'll go with "Faint" by Linkin Park. Although "For Whom The Bell Tolls" would be my choice.
PS: I called "Get Free" last year, so I'm like 1-4 since I boughts seasons.

dunno about Faint - I mean remember when your picking songs it has to be something that you can put hockey clips with good - and it needs a chorus that can be repeated again and again.
How can people think for whom the bell tolls would work? WAY WAY WAY to slow
Easilee 27 09-27-2003, 10:39 PM Not the video part, the entrance.
Guy Flaming 09-27-2003, 10:46 PM I always thoguht "Seek & Destroy" (Metallica) was a great hockey song, also for the entrance and not the video.
gretzky2kurri 09-27-2003, 11:36 PM Dust in the wind - Kansas
gretzky2kurri 09-27-2003, 11:42 PM Seriously though.....
Van Halen - Mean Streets
I know it's not current and Halen is dead, but that tune packs a pile of energy. :yo:
Yanner39 09-28-2003, 05:09 AM Seriously though.....

Yeah...Van Halen...I would go with Unchained personally...
Oi'll say! 09-28-2003, 09:32 AM They just used a Van Halen song a few years back, "right now".
They should go with nine inch nails, "closer". Just send out BG to glare menacingly at the other team :yo:
Whitenoise 09-28-2003, 09:38 AM How about Bullet Ride by In Flames?
TheBrew 09-28-2003, 09:42 AM Du Hast-Rammstein :)

Again way too slow. I really think something high energy would help. And I am not thinking NIN "Big Man with a Gun" or "March of the Pigs" would be very accepted by some of the older fans, lol. Although both are great songs.
I really thought some Andrew WK would be perfect. If not maybe something So-Cal punk-like? Maybe a nice Offspring or Rancid or Bad Religion song.. I can't think of one off the top of my head that would be very fitting though... Any suggestions? Bad Religion tends to be fairly political so maybe they aren't the best. Although they do love hockey and I am sure would be more then willing to lend a song as an intro to an NHL team. Maybe they wouldn't be bad, something like "I Want to Conquer the World"?
I really would like to stay away from 80's hair bands as it really gets corny after you hear it once...
Oi'll say! 09-28-2003, 09:47 AM Rob Zombie - Superbeast
s7ark 09-28-2003, 09:49 AM Du Hast-Rammstein :)
Now that isn't a bad idea at all.... :bow:
Hellström 09-28-2003, 10:03 AM No way - keep your hands of Rammstein. If you would understand the message of those songs really nobody would repeat the refrain - bad bad music, worst lyrics.
Hellström 09-28-2003, 10:10 AM Fu Manchu - Evil eye
Drowning Pool - Bodies
Pantera - Cowboys from hell :rolleyes:
oilerdynasty 09-28-2003, 10:10 AM ACDC Shake Your Foundations
Also look at Motley Crue Wild Side
mudcrutch79 09-28-2003, 10:21 AM Just wanted to express my horror at the Cannibal Corpse song that was suggested. I'm a young guy, consider myself pretty hip, but I can't for the life of me see any value or artistic need for a song like that. Those lyrics are appalling. And this is coming from a guy who liked Marilyn Manson, thought he provided some interesting social commentary. I'd love to hear some Bruce Springsteen at the start of the night, but recognize that its probably not hard enough.
Freakey Styley 09-28-2003, 11:21 AM welcome to the jungle,
we got fun n games,
we got everything you want,
hon we know the names we are,
the people that can find,
whatever you may need,
if you got the money honey,
we got your disease...
or maybe they could play "don't look back in anger" once comrie gets traded
Lowetide 09-28-2003, 11:25 AM Hell's Bells, or one long loop of the opening riff from Up around the Bend from CCR would be good. Hmmm, How about Smoke on the Water?

Whoa, Buddy
I was kidding when I suggested that one.

OYLer 09-28-2003, 01:00 PM "Life in the fast lane." maybe the 'Oil' could soar like the Eagles.

ROB ZOMBIE -- Dragula
Sum 41 -- pain for pleasure
shoyen 09-28-2003, 01:34 PM I always thoguht "Seek & Destroy" (Metallica) was a great hockey song, also for the entrance and not the video.
I second the 'Seek and Destroy' idea! I think that would be a killer start to a game
also a few other songs that might work:
"Bleed for me" by Black Label Society
or
"Time to go" by the Dropkick Murphys
VayaConDios 09-28-2003, 05:53 PM How about Janes Addiction - Just Because?

The New Dynasty 09-29-2003, 12:27 PM I am going to say
Faint by Linkin Park that is bloddy good song to get pumped to
