I seriously can not wait to get my hands on this soundtrack!
Creator Christopher Todd on May 8, 2012
Beautiful piece! I'm so happy you guys decided to give kickstarter a shot, and am not surprised that it's already exceeded its' goals before i even had a chance to be a backer. I hope that, as you stated, this funding will be put to great use in hiring more artists - but at the same time, i hope that these additions don't homogenize the output at all and that Grim Dawn has a style all its' own when it arrives. All of the videos shown thus far are very nice looking, but i do think that perhaps it could be a little more stylized and unique. In any case, i voted with my dollar and am totally on board for this game - Keep us posted!
Creator Eric Freeman on May 7, 2012
Titan Quest rocked!!!
Creator Antonidas|Archmage of the Obsidian Order on May 7, 2012
I also had a blast in the D3 beta and are greatly looking forward to release, just as I'm greatly looking forward to Grim Dawn. Must play all ARPG's, all loot must belong to me! :P
Creator Tor-Eilif Hargaut on May 7, 2012
Nice. Too bad you didn't enjoy the D3 Beta cjnenke, I had a blast! I'm still supporting this, and want it out there. Goal is so close now, might have to up my pledge a bit if it seems like it'll be just below the amount.
Creator cjnenke on May 4, 2012
Nice work guys, after a disappointing time on the D3 Beta i came across this, so stoked! Cant wait to play this looks awesome
Creator Alexander Chard on May 4, 2012
Oh man, this is going to make for one of those awesome relaxing moments in ARPGs. No idea how but the routine slaying of monsters becomes quite soothing after a while.
Creator DrHelvetica on May 4, 2012
beautiful... great work guys!
Creator Virsalus - Obsidian Order, Sorcerer on May 4, 2012

Bravo. Eerie yet demands attention.

wow awesome.
Creator james adam callahan on May 3, 2012
This track had me hoping that I bought a digital sound track!!! i had to go back and checK!!!!
Creator Christian Daigle on May 3, 2012
So....awesome!
Creator james adam callahan on May 3, 2012
i have literally listened to this 16 times in a row. thank you for your artistic amazingness. yes that's a word. deal with it.
Creator james adam callahan on May 3, 2012
gorgeous. keep it coming.
Creator Ian on May 3, 2012
It depends on where they use it. It would be great in town and decent enough between groups of mobs.
That said, I would love to kill thousands while listening to calm tunes on occasion. It's like the movie scenes where they play the slow music while muting the violence.
Either way, good stuff.
Creator Monsignor on May 3, 2012
Disappointing, not suitable for this kind of action game.
Creator Kyle Tamayo on May 3, 2012
..... Alpha out yet?!
Creator Greg "Scorpio" Myers on May 3, 2012
Damn, there has been not one throwaway track yet! Not only can I wait to play the game, I can't wait to chill out to this soundtrack. You guys are doing an amazing job on this project!
Creator Nathan on May 3, 2012
Wow, love it. Beautiful.
Creator Gábor Avadí on May 3, 2012
Amazing song! Very emotional.
Creator Kenneth Bækkelund on May 3, 2012
No doubt, this game is already on the path of great.
Creator David Bridges on May 3, 2012
Lovely sound track. When it stopped it seemed to leave a void in its place. More please :)
Creator Josh Piercy on May 3, 2012
This is beautiful.
Creator Kyle Wag on May 3, 2012
man if you guys keep making good song i might have to up my pledge to something with a sound track.
Creator Beau Hansen on May 3, 2012
Sent shivers down my spine, nice work.
Creator Noray1987 on May 3, 2012
Reminds me of Akira Yamaoke's work (from Silent Hill). This is intended as a huge compliment!
Creator eman.russ on May 3, 2012
Lovely track. Raising my pledge to 35.
Creator david kay on May 3, 2012
Everything I've seen/heard from you guys sounds so tantalizing! I cannot wait to see what the game will look like with all the layers of polish you guys intend to put on it. Keep up the excellent work.
Creator Robert Bowen on May 3, 2012
Very nice track, starting with an almost 'reflective melancholic' atmosphere and building up to hopefulness. Really liking the mix of instruments on this one. Great work, and looking forward to hearing more.
Creator Paul Dunnells on May 3, 2012
Wow, it really was haunting, yet, hopeful. Never overlook that you can have a simple melody convey a great deal. I personally thought the mix of instruments worked really well for this. Strings, with some guitar, and the tune carried by the piano. With some very nice woodwind highlighting.
Creator Davyd McColl on May 3, 2012
Keep up the good work!
Creator garkham on May 3, 2012
That's totally what I expected. Be inspired. Don't hesitate with the wind-brass too ! :-)
Creator Kenneth Getz on May 3, 2012
If I wasn't dumping all my cash on various kickstarter projects I'd up to the $35 for the soundtrack. Still might. Great tune. Keep it up guys.
Creator Neill George on May 3, 2012
With this track you've inspired me to increase my pledge - nicely done!
Creator Matt Robertson on May 3, 2012
Wow, that was awesome. I'm really at a lack of words, you guys have so much great stuff going into this game, it makes the wait harder and harder.
The music has REALLY been impressing me, and the amount of updates you guys are giving to the community, i'm not surprised since I've been on the GD for a while now and your constant activity is always reassuring.
thanks for everything Crate!
Creator FloodSpectre on May 3, 2012
Love the vaguely post-rock guitar work :)
Creator Rakimou on May 3, 2012
Loved it. Your sound team means business.
Creator Steve Pardo on May 3, 2012
Glad you guys are enjoying the track! This one was composed mainly as a theme, for use as town music or during non-combat/desolate gameplay. No bloody baddies croaking over going on behind this. And to clarify, all the music is still kinda in "alpha". Expect mastered/final versions of everything you've heard so far. Thx again all!
Creator Ryuketsu on May 3, 2012
Towards the end I felt like playing Silent hill again
Creator Ryuketsu on May 3, 2012
Very nice. I really hope this gets the green light!
Creator Zebra3 on May 3, 2012
Very moody and... mournful. I'm loving this music :)
Creator Suzie Q Sailaway on May 3, 2012
I really, really love it. While I agree it's not so much a "Kill ALL the Things" sort of tune- it definitely has that "trekking through a desolate land" sort of feel. I'm generally not a fan of instrumentals in and of themselves because they tend to feel lacking. I love this one though. :D
Creator Lauwie0 on May 3, 2012
WOW!.... this is incredible.
Totally agree with ZJAT on this too, on the minecraft thing.
Creator getoz on May 3, 2012
At first, it's just a beautiful sad music but it starts to pick up some spookiness. Thanks for the wonderful music!!
