Have any of you found any especially good music to put you in the proper grim, dark mood of nihilist despair while you frantically hack at the shambling remains of your fellow humans with an axe caked with hair and brain matter, choking back tears of outrage and horror at the bloody abattoir of the tiny corpses of cold, vacantly-staring, dead-eyed children piling up around you like bricks in a wall of damnation?
I used to listen to the Silent Hill Downpour soundtrack, but then I found this really good ambient album that does a great job of replicating the Cataclysm atmosphere. There’s a few other albums on it that do it for me as well.
Personally, I activate a radio in game, and then in my browser, go to Pandora and listen to whatever comes on until the radio dies. Put in batteries, repeat.
Which typically includes electronica, Classical, Hard Rock, and Ambient music
Acoustic Tales - Field Rotation ’Allelujah! Don’t Bend! Ascend! - Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven! - Godspeed You! Black Emperor Yanqui U.X.O - Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Hurtbreak Wonderland - World’s End Girlfriend Palmless Prayer / Mass Murder Refrain - Mono & World’s End Girlfriend Paraphrases - Christopher Berg Stoic - WIFE
Through The Glass Wall - The Invisible Fish Giles Corey - Giles Corey
Some of these may not fit, as I haven’t listened to these all in a long time. All of the ones in BOLD are for sure the kind of music you’re looking for.

Hello new best forum friend with awesome music taste. Godspeed You! Black Emperor and world’s end girlfriend are perfect for the post apocalypse, and the latter never seems to get the recognition he deserves. I’d also highly recommend Magyar Posse - Kings of Time. It’s one of the only other albums that has that epic apocalyptic feel of GsY!BE. Daturah also has a few good tracks that fit imo, like Ghost Track an Hybrisma. Now, off to check out those other albums you mention that I haven’t heard of!
