I'm planning a Mörk Borg game with my friends. For the uninitiated, it's a table top RPG game that describes itself as
A DOOM METAL album of a game.
A spiked FLAIL to the Face.
Light on RULES, Heavy Every-thing Else.
The art and setting are very German/Euro metal inspired.
I myself enjoy listening to metal periodically, but I'm a casual fan. I want to build a background playlist to help ground the players in it's art and style.
I'm thinking light/low vocal Black / Doom / Death / Prog metal. Looking for music that drives the listeners to action while avoiding taking over center stage.
So far I have grabbed some Igorr, some DOOM 2016 Soundtrack, some Rigor Mortis, Inferi, Cannibal Corpse, and a bunch of random stuff from Spotify suggestions, though I'm struggling to really make it a cohesive vibe.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Thank you all so much for the help! This is awesome! What a great community.
For low vocal Black Metal, I’d look at Celeste.
Stoner/Doom look at Sleep, Candlemass.
For a more Gothic/Doom feel try Unto Others.
