I enjoy metal as much as anyone, one of my favorite bands is system of a down, seen them live 6 times but when I watch someones kill vid with metal in the background it often times becomes distracting. The focus is the kill not the music, the music is really just there to break up the monotony of watching someone elses 10 minute long fight. Also, music without lyrics or at least a very small amount of them seems to generally work better and keep the focus on the fight.
When I choose music I actually try to pick stuff that I feel matches the overall feel of the encounter. For spine I wanted songs that were mellow but still had an "epic" sound to them because I don't view spine as a very exciting or fast paced fight but it's still the defining encounter of this tier because of it's difficulty. Gonna prob be similar for madness as I really don't see that as a very fast moving fight either.
A fight like Heroic LK I could probably picture something faster paced working but not on these fights. Least that's my opinion.
Many don't like when there's any music whatsoever so staying a little low key with it helps to not overpower those people as well.

I actually have an idea for madness that I hope people will like, it's a little outside the box but I think it'll work, we'll see.

amg two metal songs that are tolerable....i didn't think it was possible!
honestly i'm looking for some songs that are roughly 3-4 mins in length, because i feel like as the fight progresses the music needs to become more chaotic and faster, just because the raid is starting to become more unstable as you go along.
Like this song I'd probably use for the beginning and cut it down to 3-4 mins instead of the 6 mins it is:
Also, with this song I would use pieces/parts of for the 4th platform/phase 2 probably, but i'd have to edit the song in Soundbooth and figure out where the chord progression fits together to shorten it, and cut out certain parts of it that I didn't feel was necessary:
and then somehow figure out how to tie them both together, or i'd probably find a 3rd filler song for in between that connected them both.
Edit: (WHAT THE HELL YOU CAN'T EMBED EITHER OF THESE?!)
i just music nerded on you, you're welcome.

Music without lyrics is also really nic for those vids that have vent recorded.

Like with vent btw.. Marle and I were talking on vent and we both thought it was pretty cool to hear the shouts for joy at the end of kill videos.. but the vent narrating throughout the fight might not be worthwhile 'cause its like the same thing over and over on each platform.
Starting at 0:31
Another good option is this:
Then there's these:

Some pretty sweet songs so far imo. Not usually a fan of the metal, but it could work.
@ video makers... this fight is extremely repetitive, I kind of wonder if you guys think including vent conversation other than maybe last platform and/or realm first screams is even worth it? It'll mostly just be "bolt.... bloods... aoe... rez him" over the course of at the very least the first 3 platforms.
Maybe some epic music with lyrics, like dubstep.. not Katy Perry, would work. Then on the last platform we could include your epic beats and Vex's inevitable screams!

To be quite honest I don't know if I can pick and choose when I include vent and when I don't with windows live movie maker. It's a free program and doesn't have a lot of features a higher end editor would.

Flynnt you should make a sweet <Alone> logo we can use for our openings instead of the insanely pixelated one I hijacked off the forum banner. Just sayin.
