Does someone else think that SR 4 has bad music?

[Nino_Chaosdrache]

From all the Saints Row games Saints Row 4 has the worst choice of music tracks. In all other games I licked most of the songs and had one favourite song ( Gen X in Saints Row 1, Final Countdown in SR 2 and Holding Out for a Hero in SR 3 ). But in Saints Row 4 there is really no song or radio station I like to listen to. Most of the stuff is meh for me and even The Mix FM, my favourite station, just plays average songs. The only station I like in 4 is Klassik 102.4, but even that station gets destroyed, because Zinyak is talking on it most of the times.

I know it's all a matter of taste, but in this case Saints Row 4 didn't meet my taste at all.

I actually like quite a bit of the music in this one and I discovered some new artists to enjoy. Some of the songs would be better with different lyrics or no lyrics, but the music itself I like. As usual, I do a playlist because there's also several songs I dislike in the games and I don't feel like replacing song files to put in my own when I can just load up a playlist on the tablet instead. Although if putting my own music in the game were easier (something I think they want to do with Sandbox+), I might do that.

One of the only good songs in the entire game. That and Aerosmith. I'd throw in Song 1 but I've had to do that with a band over and over and over and I can't stand it anymore. Still, it pays the bills.

But yeah, this game has very poor choices in music this time to the point I've completely turned it off until I can find a mod that adds music from the other games into this one.

At least Malcolm Kirby Jr. added some nice tunes to the game.

I liked a lot of the songs, I mean "Bad" is really just subjective, there's a lot of popular artists this time around too. You could just do what I do sometimes and play a youtube playlist in the background or something and mute the in-game music audio.

You probably don't want to do that. Never know where they've been.

Blur, Outkast, Cypress Hill, Haddaway. How was Mix 'average'?

As an official "old person" (I'm 43) I think a lot of the music in SR4 is bad...bad ass! Sorry, that’s a terrible cliché, but I’m serious here. Early in the game, when I was taking down my first Flashpoint and Flux Pavilion comes on, I was like, “Hey, that’s Blow The Roof!” and I couldn’t help but turn the volume to 11.

K12 and Mad Decent are my favorites, but sometimes I activate KRhyme and Four 20 to mix things up a bit.

I will say that I don’t get why Klassic is there because, hey I like some classical music from time to time – but not when I’m playing this kind of game. And you would expect an oldster who was in high school in the late 80’s and college in the early 90’s to listen to his own generation’s music and hook up “The Mix.” But, no, most of these songs I’ve heard hundreds of times already and some I just plain never liked. Except Cypress Hill, because Insane in the Membrane never gets old.

Now that I’ve got about 20 hours in the game some songs are wearing on me, so like others have said I’m gonna pick and choose with the game's playlist.

Because out of the lot, you only named one good artist.

Most anyone who isn't an old school Transformers fan or who is younger than, say, thirty doesn't know Stan Bush. "The Touch" was originally going to debut in an 80's Sylvester Stallone pile of dog mess called "Cobra." No doubt Stan Bush is happy that instead of being part of one of the worst movies of all time, this song has become indelibly associated with one fo the most awesome robots in the history of TV and film: Optimus Prime. As part of the 1986 animated Transformers movie, "The Touch" is a stirring, heroic theme featured primarily when Prime is being awesome.

To note, "The Touch" is also featured in the opening movie for Shadow Warrior.

That being said, I actually don't like the song very much, and only revere it for its nostalgic value.

I like all the music in this game. I do like the actual 'Game' music more than any other saints row too. The city music is brilliant, I do like just mulling about the city with that ambient music playing in the background.
