I've been thinking about this for a while, how it would be fun to put together a youtube playlist of songs that you could start up and play in the background while playing the game.
I think there are a lot of classic rock songs that would really work well with TTW's themes. Things that are thematically consistent with the games - nuclear war, guns, bombs, isolation, desolate landscapes, post-apocylpse living, that sort of thing.
By "classic rock" I mean basically anything from the early 1960s to the late 1970s/early 1980s -- from "rock and roll" (early beatles, for example) to "hard rock" (rolling stones, led zeppelin, etc.) to "psychadellic rock" (doors, pink floyd, hendrix etc.) to "progressive rock" (the who, fleetwood mac, yes) to "folk-rock" (neil young, dylan, etc.) to "glam rock" (david bowie).
But those are just some of the big names that everyone knows. There are lots of other artists out there, but I don't know the genre well enough to say, so I need some help!
Here are a few I've thought of:
David Bowie - Bombers

The Beatles - Back in the USSR

The Smiths - Ask

The Grateful Dead - Throwing Stones

David Bowie - Moonage Daydream

I would like to make this pretty long so there's a decent amount of musical content, while sticking to the classic rock vibe, so please help me out and post some ideas.
