Xyg's Quake CD Recommendations

You're probably asking what this part is about. Well, this is about the original Quake game. As you may or may not know, you have the option to not use the music you're given with the game. I think it's pretty bad music really, even though I am kind of a nine inch nails fan. I discovered by accident that you can use any CD with the game, and there are CD out there that work a LOT better than the given music.

Well, you're probably asking what CDs I think work well with the game. Well, before I get to that, here's what you need with the CD:

• A CD with at least 11 tracks
• Tracks that aren't really short (the disk should be at least 45 minutes in total length, and the tracks themselves should be at least 1:45 each)
• a disk that you won't mind hearing over and over

once you have that, then just put it in before you start the game, and then beat the hell out of the zombies and such all you want. As for my recommendations, here they are:

• Chaos A.D. by Sepultura
• Astro Creep 2000 by White Zombie
• Supersexy Swingin' Sounds by White Zombie
• Metallica by Metallica
• The soundtrack to the movie Spawn

I'll be putting up more albums as I go back through them. If you have an album that you want to see listed here, e-mail me them, along with what name you would want listed by them, and I'll put them up as soon as possible. In the mean time, to help you decide what album to use, here's the default track usage for each level:
