The devil made me do it! You heard it, you cannot unhear it!! LMAO!!! What can I say, I’m all about all things dragons! When to listen: You all know where this song comes from. Honestly, dragonforce is as close to audio caffeine as you can get.

This band is a seriously acquired taste, but they grew on me over the span of a few years. When to listen: This is a powerhouse song. Full with a wide range of emotions… I would use this song as a descent into madness for one of my characters. Listen as you write their final fall.

Temperance is insane in some of the stuff they put out. Highly recommend giving them a listen. When to listen: This is a high stress, high pressure song. Listen to this when writing either during the final battle or during a high stress time, perhaps the initial conflict or something like that.

I hesitated posting this one because… It’s an acquired taste. I know, not for everyone, but it has a very melodic sound to it. When to listen: This is a world building song. You can focus on the lyrics or melody, either way, you’re going to get some kind of idea about the world you want to build.

Not one of their newer songs, but I have to admit, this one grew on me. I’ve never really been a fan of their lead vocalist, but good music, good song topics (history/war), and a sort of neutral take is all something I very much enjoy. When to listen: As with most Sabaton songs, they’re really trying to tell a story. These are brainstorming … Read More From My Writing Playlist #Music #Metal #Writing

Not really on my playlist, but too good NOT to share. If ‘Masked Singer’ gives us nothing else… it gave us music legend Patti Labelle singing one of the best songs from Heart, one of the best ballad bands from the 80s. I’m satisfied with that! When to listen: Stop writing, sit back and enjoy, because this is something we’re not likely to get … Read More From My Writing Playlist

One off the newest Avantasia album… it’s haunting, to say the least. When to listen: Plot building. This is a great song if you’re looking to build a plot line into your story or even if you’re just looking to brainstorm what to right next!

I’m not huge into pop music. I’m just going to throw that out there, but something about this song’s catchy tune drew me in and it got stuck in my head. When to listen: Meh… general playlist I guess? That’s where I have it. I suppose it could be used during the heroes quest. Readers, Do you have a question about writing, publishing, my … Read More From My Writing Playlist
