Playoff theme music
 

Not sure many of you guys know the band Throwdown, but I think this should be our theme song for the playoffs. This is our team "Forever". Tell me you dont get pumped after watching this!!

Heh, I've heard of the band Throwdown, not my style. I'm more of a fan of this:



That Throwdown song you could barely understand what they were saying.

Always gets me pumped and with such a fitting title


(Skip to 41 seconds)

Tongue-in-cheek comment on great playoff tunes:

This is so totally not my music - it's not even funny. That said, if the Yotes ever wanted to switch the whiteouts for sandstorms... this'd be *the* tune to go with:

I guess I'll keep the theme going

not gunna lie, I really liked the "Ali in the jungle" song they played during the 09 playoffs. It wasnt hard core, but it still got the blood pumping because of the message of the song. I think it's fitting considering our group

Isn't it pretty obvious?

This would be a good choice:

Dragonforce - Operation Ground and Pound.



Fitting. Indeed.

Or if you're into "Old time hockey"

Comedy answer:

100% THIS!

Songs that are screaming and loud are just meh. Songs that have a tempo that quickens and gets the place going.

A combination of a longer edit of The Black Keys Howling For You



Transition into the intro for The Who - We Won't Be Fooled Again


Hell, I wouldn't mind a finish on Jump Around while everyone was in white with the pom poms going.



That's my 6-8 minute intro (in line with what we've done in previous years). The key is to have songs that sound good in arenas. Things where the lead guitar dominates the song or a powerful drumbeat are key, in my opinion.

fun thread

agreed. screamo songs dont really work for hockey in my opinion. You can't hear half of what they're saying and while the beat may be fast and upbeat it doesn't really inspire me and give me that fuzzy feeling of camaraderie with my fellow fans. that's why I like ali in the jungle..."everyone gets knocked down, how quick are you gunna get up; its not how you start it's how you finish" etc. IDK, just my two cents :)

Never been a big fan of Van Halen with Sammy, but this popped on my vehicles stereo through my IPod before the San Jose game that started the recent streak and the rest is history.

Needless to say this is cued up and ready for play at as close to the same driving point (as the original) on my trip to every game. In fact I won't even listen to the IPod until I reach that point! After I park I cued it up again and get ready for victory!

Well, anywho.... was supposed to be Van Halen's "Right Now"

Not the goofy video, just the tune..... could be my being an infracted "
bad boy" or could be I don't know how to post the youtube link????

In that order.
Every Game.

Part of a very complex victory ensuring routine.

You only need this bit between the YTs: vyGzPmgR1QY

Thanks!

Here is the proper version, with the full intro of the players included.
Most of the youtube versions are camera phone shots this one is actually good.



Not sure I've seen a better done video of this type.

Also us fans need to bring that same atmosphere to jobbing for game 1. Last season coming into town down 2 games it just wasn't there.

Not really a fan of rock, but I suppose that's what works with hockey. This is about as far as I'm willing to go:

This thread needs more Finnish metalheads singing Tina Turner.



we don't need another hero
we don't need to know the way home
all we want is life beyond
round one

haha that's that straight edge band. I haven't really listened to them much but the whole idea of straight edge cracks me up. I'm HARDCORE goody-goody mother****er! :biglaugh:

Anyway, it would seem from this thread we need a mix of aggression and adrenaline fueled stuff combined with singing you can understand and a uniting theme. Hmmm....I'll have to think about this one.

These remind me of a quote from the movie Braveheart:
