    Old Gods of Asgard is the cover name for the real band: Poets of the Fall. Such an amazing band that I believe can do pretty much any genre and fit in really well. Ollie T (the guitarist) seems like such an amazing dude. He's one of my favorite guitarists. Marko (the lead singer) is my favorite vocalist. They both have ranges in their abilities that you wouldn't believe.

      It's the in-universe band name to be more exact that live in the town that Alan Wake series takes place in.

    Alan Wake 2 has good music in literally every chapter of the game. It's so good. And they made them DMCA free

      @@enenrax Yep. There's no "mute copyrighted music" option in game like CONTROL had. And I remember vaguely Remedy announcing on Twitter that the music was DMCA free. They did partner with the musicians in making the music to begin with though

    Gotta love all the wackyness that the series can bring, the level where the musical was played had the righ amount of campy and cheesyness, can never have enought Poets of the Fall; specially Sam Lake just being there to add some extra layers of self awareness was the cherry on the cake.
    Keep the reactions comming, love them.

    Seems there would be much more Old Gods' stuff to discover. A few on this game as well as earlier ones. My suggestions would be 'Take Control' and Balance Slays the Demon. Children of the Eldergod was a fun little ditty as well, but definitely better in the context of the game.

    Some games/music to investigate:
    Ace Combat 7
    Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
    Medal of Honor: Frontline
    Old Gods of Asgard: Dark Ocean Summoning (also from Alan Wake 2)
    Sabaton (not a video game but a Swedish military history metal band)
