Somehow I feel that Blackmore's Night feel appropiate to this game. Don't know why... I also like the music of Nightwish when slaughtering big ugly Niefelheim Giants in my cuurent 1-1 MP game against my friend.

Heh, two of my favorite bands. I also find Sorten Muld fits quite will with dominions. |

Re: What do you listen to while playing Dom3?
The game's music 
Dominion 3's music is actually really good, especially since there is more than one track (Yep, looking at you dom2), and I just haven't reached the point when I just have to replace it with something else.
Also, I don't have anything thematic to replace it with, so I'd just end up playing with AC/DC in the background O_o

Re: What do you listen to while playing Dom3?
If I were to show my age Id mention Yes and Uriah Heep. Particularly Uriah Heep has pieces which totally fit the RPG side of this game.

Whatever iTunes, Lord of the Sound, Keeper of the Albums, the Silence Ender tells me I should listen to.

Re: What do you listen to while playing Dom3?
Don't think I've ever listened to a game's music for more than 20 minutes or so, and have uninstalled / thrown away (console) games that didn't let me disable the music.

Re: What do you listen to while playing Dom3?
To anyone playing R'lyeh or another spooky enough nation, I recommend
Octane soundtrack by Orbital
mostly great soundtrack from bad thriller.
-------------------
You can't go wrong with Dead Can Dance,you get enough material for several nations.
Amateur celtic flavored bands, like polish Open Folk, Czech Dun An Doras, Tredrez Trio, Bal Kuzest, Ula Kapała.
Other folk bands like Stara Lipa.
Bauhaus. 'Bela Lugosi is dead', 'All we ever wanted was everything', 'In the night', 'King Volcano', 'The three shadows' part 1 and 2... + some XIII Stoleti pieces would make great Ulm:Black Forest soundtrack.
By the way: my last.fm site: http://last.fm/user/jazwiec
Last.fm is great if you're interested in discovering more music you like. And don't mind being pretty much glued to your computer. It lets you choose your own station, skip and ban tracks without limitations, tag them as 'loved' etc. Listen to your musical neighbors' music etc.
If you use Linux, I recommend using older client and OSS, otherwise it's very hard to run.

Re: What do you listen to while playing Dom3?
Therion and folkearth, mostly therion since they have so many fitting songs. The album secret of the runes fits very well when playing vanheim and jotunheim and the crowning of atlantis works well when playing certain underwater nations.
