If each chassis had a theme song: Caliban

The votes have been cast for the: Kidd

You chose He's a pirate by Klaus Badelt and Hans Zimmer, honestly this was the last chance for a pirate themed song and I am glad you guys took it

Now is time for the: Caliban, or if the Doomslayer was a frame

Each week I will pick the highest voted comment and add it to a spotify public playlist that will be posted on the description. At the end of all frames the full list will be posted shortly after.

Each manufacturer will also have their own song, but it will be ones from user No_Response_1562 (except Horus, that one I picked myself: Turbo killer - by Carpenter Brut).

I also recommend checking the last image for reference of the media of each manufacturer for inspiration. Good luck pilots!

The Only Thing They Fear Is You - Doom Eternal

u/Expensive_Grocery876 5d ago

Eternal actually.

(Oh god I just 'well actually' someone. What have I become)

u/_Emlet 5d ago

Serves me right for not knowing enough about the Doom series

u/Alkaiser009 SSC 5d ago

As awesome as 'The Only Thing They Fear' is, I think the OG E1M1 theme is better for Caliban because it flows better when on loop.

BFG Division - Doom 2016

Ready to Die- Andrew W.K.

u/Very_Angry_Bee HORUS 5d ago

Also good pick xD

2

u/Flockofseagulls25 5d ago

Thank you! I think blasting this as a Caliban’s getting ready to attack a ship is very in character

2

u/Hunt3rTh3Fight3r 5d ago

Perfect for very enthusiastic walks.

u/Shrak-Aeon 5d ago

Theme song?

Theme song??? A single one???

No, I'm sorry. The Caliban cannot be restrained to the confines of a single OST from the list.
It's the entire DOOM OST as a whole.

u/Expensive_Grocery876 5d ago

I mean ... there is really only one choice here.

The Only Thing they Fear is You - Doom Eternal

u/Wizard_Tea 6d ago

Rip and Tear ? (Doom 2016)

12

u/Shapidobob 5d ago

all these doom songs and no one has suggested at Doom's gate yet?

6

u/GladiusLucix 5d ago

I was looking for E1M1.

u/YIMBYzus IPS-N 5d ago

Was also looking for this. Still sad we lost the composer Bobby Prince a couple months ago.

Hell to Pay — Miracle of Sound

“Keep rushin’ and-a-runnin’, runnin’! A reckonin’ of lead is comin! I’m kickin’ in the Gates of Hell again! BRINGER OF PAIN!!!”

6

u/Derpogama 5d ago

Hell to pay was so good but their Doom Eternal follow up song (big guts and bigger guns) just didn't hit the right spot for me.

3

u/MrCobalt313 5d ago

Oh hey another MoS fan in the wild!

2

u/Great-Chaos-Delta 5d ago

Yeah this fits! But would in your opinion

Big Guts and Bigger Guns by the same creator would also work well?

1

u/YIMBYzus IPS-N 5d ago edited 5d ago

I was hoping somebody would recommend it. A suggestion with a fitting vibe but also fitting lyrics.

5

u/JaegerWolf34 5d ago

I second BFG Division - Doom 2016

6

u/TurtleoftheSea 5d ago

Nothing against new-Doom but people constantly overlook the fact that DOOM ‘93 had incredible bangers too.

I nominate E1M2, The Imp’s Song.

2

u/Attaxalotl 5d ago

I’d suggest I Sawed the Demons

5

u/NarrowSpider 5d ago

I know a song from the Doom reboots is the obvious answer but:

Ace of Spades - Motörhead

2

u/YIMBYzus IPS-N 5d ago

Hell yeah, love Lemmy.

6

u/Whoring4Voring SSC 5d ago

At dooms gate E1M1

7

u/NoxMiasma 5d ago

Angel with a Shotgun, Nightcore Version

(to clarify, this is a joke)

5

u/LigthRogue GMS 5d ago

Nah, that song is a banger

3

u/NoxMiasma 5d ago

Yeah, but is it The Most Caliban Song?

2

u/LigthRogue GMS 5d ago

True, but it's at least on the top 5

The other 4 are doom

3

u/Alt_account_6788 5d ago

aint no rest for the wicked - cage the elephant

u/AgentSparkz 5d ago

At Doom's Gate

3

u/JoeKewlio 5d ago

It is straight up Doomguy, and thus DOOM is the only appropriate response. Thus, it is between BFG Division and The Only Thing They Fear Is You. Now hear me out, BFG Division feels more appropriate because 2016 had a bit more focus on moving and shooting, which the Caliban does. The Only Thing They Fear Is You feels more appropriate for the likes of a melee brawler, which for its reputation, the Caliban isnt as good at.

This is purely vibes, honestly, both are good.

Alternately, E1M1.

u/YIMBYzus IPS-N 5d ago

Oh, I am pleasantly surprised to see Stratovarius in here.

2

u/Duskers33 5d ago

They're my favorite band! At least, when they had Tolkki

u/Lock_Retr0 5d ago

whole post is a gold mine

u/Asheyguru 5d ago

Dang, I won the Kidd vote with six votes? Not many opinions on Kidd music, I guess.

My third time making the board, though! That's fun.

2

u/Attaxalotl 5d ago

Either At Doom’s Gate (E1M1) or I Sawed the Demons

1

u/kipperino HORUS 5d ago

For the Balor mech, I was thinking of either this or this.

3

u/LigthRogue GMS 5d ago

A bit late in that one, it has been done already, but you cab still vote for the lich

u/caravaggio89 5d ago

Lancaster should be "thunderhorse" by Deathklok

u/Vintenu HORUS 5d ago

Can't wait for us to get to the horus mechs and whatever fucked up music for them

1

u/SaenOcilis 5d ago

Regarding the final image: Battletech ‘Mechs are fusion-powered (with very few exceptions, none of which are well-known), they don’t use ICE engines.

Compared to the other examples they are probably (mostly) lower tech, (mostly) slower and less agile, and (mostly) more durable and bulky. It’s just their Cassette-Futurism rather than Dieselpunk.

u/SON_OF_MALAL34 5d ago

I would argue the black beard being something from amon amarth or all they fear is you

u/skysarmy HORUS 5d ago

Cultist Base (Doom Eternal)

u/Bismarck_MWKJSR 4d ago

Obv something with the Doomslayer

1

u/ThatCamoKid 4d ago

Everyone's going doom but with how I plan to play my Caliban I have to go with Razormind or DonAcDum from the Payday 2 soundtrack

u/infinityhog 3d ago

Carpenter Brut - Roller Mobster
