Golgotha Tenement Blues by Machines Of Loving Grace : This was played in the haven of the West Side Killaz, where Hercule and the Rat met Smith-Comma-Jones.
You Have The Power from the Dark City Soundtrack : The battle music that Space Monkey enjoyed during while swarms of rival gang members attacked the West Side Killaz and Hercule and the Rat got their asses kicked out back.
Knock Me Out by Linda Perry : The subtly dark theme that served as background for Space Monkey's meeting with Navidson.
Grace by Jeff Buckley : The theme for Alabaster's Elysium, and the background music for the meeting with the wacky Prince.
Clubbed To Death by Rob D : Ironically, despite the name this is a calmer song played during the tour, not an action sequence.
Painful by Sin : Background for Persephone's less-than-pleasant encounter with Bismarck in the interrogation chamber.
Don't Panic by Cold Play : Background music for The Rat's conversation with Alabaster in private. I downloaded this song merely because of the name, which I thought might be some kind of connection to the Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy. It wasn't, but who would have guessed it would turn out to be useful in some way.
Single Serving Jack from the Fight Club Soundtrack : Background for Red Lonewolf's hacking scene. I actually don't care for the Dust Brothers' music much, but this worked well.
Dealing With The Roster by Junkie XL : The perfect music for the massacre. I don't know about the rest of you, but that was my favorite part of this session.
Playing With Lightning by Expansion Union : Hercule on wereblood... Need I say more?
Dawn Of The Iconoclast by Dead Can Dance : Creepy music, I think, played while Red was making his way through the pitch black hallway, waiting for a sign of the werewolf he is to destroy, seeing visions of his family murdered.
Thirty Minutes by T.A.T.U. : Calm, serene, lulling and beckoning at the same time. Perfect for the awakening of everyone except Hercule on the second night.
Dig This Vibe by DJ Krush : Stylish and high society sounding, sort of jazzy, good for the Asatru reception.
Jurassitol by Filter : Filter music is good for that slumming feel, which is the obvious setting for Hercule's awakening on the second night.
Rez by Underworld : The soothing kind of techno shit that Hercule heard as he set the munitions about the haven of Jackson and the Slugs.
Afrika Shox by Leftfield : I don't remember exactly where I came upon this little bit of crap, but I just knew it would be useful somewhere. This is the blasting music inside the Slugs' club that played as Hercule chased down Jackson and killed him, the music that Space Monkey and Raven seemed to enjoy dancing to so very much.
Run Lola Run soundtrack : What can I say, it's just the obvious music for those scenes when you're racing through city streets.
Terminal Velocity by The Boondock Saints : Music for Red Lonewolf's fight with Blurry
Wonderful Wonderful by Johnny Mathis : It's such nice, romantic music, so sweet and peaceful and warm... which is why it served to make Psidon's death chamber, I mean bed chamber, all the more twisted.
In For The Kill by Skindive : Background for the Rat's ruthless murder of Psidon in the sewers.
The Best Things by Filter : The Chapter Two theme, and the song which played at the conclusion of that chapter.
To Forgive by The Smashing Pumpkins : The theme of Chapter Three, and the music playing in the tunnels leading to the Nosferatu undergronud city.
The Thing That Should Not Be by Metallica : The song playing as the party approached the water where Immigrant dwelled.
Walk by Pantera : The background music for the fateful encounter with Immigrant.
Hurt by Nine Inch Nails : The music as the party entered the city, fitting, as they were all battered and busted up, especially the Rat.
Color Me Once by the Violent Femmes : I find this song to be darkly hypnotic and irresistable. It served as perfect background for the entire encounter with Wesson.
Blurry by Puddle Of Mudd : Background music for the scenes with... guess who. It also happens to be her theme song, unsurprisingly.
Vow by Garbage : Music behind Red Lonewolf talking to Gold Dust in the Nosferatu city, when he decides he will be good.
Guilty by Gravity Kills : The fight song for the pipe battle that Kathy liked so much.
Blood and Roses by the Smithereens : Waking up on the fourth night and getting to the end of the tunnel.
Bloody Kisses by Type O Negative : Everything from emerging in the town to getting to the Elysium, this is the Chapter Four theme.
Precious Things by Tori Amos : The song behind Red Lonewolf and Gold Dust "feeding".
Terrible Lie by Nine Inch Nails : Behind the chasing and gang raping of the Sheriff.
The Omen Theme : This was the Diablerie music.
Superpredators by Massive Attack : The bizarre, freakish sound that the strange being in the woods made for Gold Dust.
Down With The Sickness by Disturbed : This played throughout the scenes with the insane bloody fecal matter filled orgy of animals and insects in the woods before reaching Sebastian's house.
Where's My Mind by the Pixies : The music behind the rescue of Red, the Rat, and Gold Dust from the insanity in the woods.
Are You Happy Now? by Michelle Branch : From the point that Gold Dust began purposefully walking out of the house until finally reaching town, as the others question her.
Paint It Black covered by Vanessa Carlton : Vanessa Carlton was the voice of Gold Dust as she sang the call in the jazz club.
Rock Is Dead by Marilyn Manson : The music in the farm house where the coterie almost kept Jonas from kidnapping Gold Dust.
Human Wreckage by Sponge : Played in Jonas's neighborhood as Lonewolf and ! entered and found the bodies of... everybody.
Sober by Tool : This is Jonas's theme song, and played in some of the scenes with him.
The Cult Chant from Eyes Wide Shut : I drew a lot from the sex cult in Eyes Wide Shut, simply tweaking the hell out of it to make it uber-vampiric instead of uber-sexual. The song had to carry over.
Symphony Of Destruction by Megadeth : Well, Jonas fighting Black, Lonewolf with his flares, Hercule with his dozens of weapons, the Rat with her phantom werewolves, Exclamation Point with her magnum. This played for the violence, and was also the theme of the chapter.
O Fortuna by Carl Orff : This will always be the song for climactic mind-fucker apocalyptic shit.
Gold Dust by Tori Amos : Both the character's theme and the song playing while she disintegrated.
Welcome Home (Sanitarium) by Mettalica : Played while Hercule awoke in the you know where, and when he was being flashed with UV lights and shit.
Bother by Stone Sour : As Exclamation Point and Lonewolf awoke and tried desperately to figure out what to do next.
Dream On by Depeche Mode : Played while the Rat spoke with I Am and finally learned her purpose.
Paint It Black by Incubus, GOB, and the Tea Party : These were the three different versions of the song that the coterie heard while moving toward the Elysium.
Call Of Ktulu by Metallica : For the appearance of the Antedeluvians in the Elysium.
I Against I by Massive Attack : Played as the vampires all armed themselves and loaded up the trucks, then as they headed through the woods toward the werewolf caern, up until they realized that no one was there.
Ruiner by Nine Inch Nails : Background for the first half of the combat, up until the point where they all got massively FuX0red and split up.
Fuel by Metallica : Played for the last half of the werewolf hunt.
Invincible by the Boondock Saints : This should pretty accurately describe how everyone should have felt following the hunt. "Take, take what you wanna take, and try to leave me low, but I was here before you, and I'll be here when you're gone. Invincible."
Bleeding Me by Metallica : The final chapter theme played during the feeding and the Rat's subsequent dooming of all vampires.
Over by the Boondock Saints : This will forever be my music that would roll in the credits.
