Beast Wars Theme Songs?
I am a fan of music of all kinds, and I was wondering what songs would fit with each of the Maximals and Predicons? I might cook up a list myself but I would be interested to get your ideas for theme songs for them as I think of some.
Wars go beyond what we know...Evil is everywhere, Heroes are non existent, and the truth is far beyond our understanding...

I'll agree with you there, Linkin Park is great and all but Im trying to stray from the typical bands. Still thinking of tunes here but am starting to paint a fuzzy picture.

I hate to say this but Linkin Park and Dinobot have been done to death to the point that it is nigh impossible to find a Dinobot AMV that doesnt feature the song.
Reducing Dinobot to a stereotypically angsty song is a debasement of his awesome character. We have to remember that Dinobot above all else was more then just an angst ridden character.
A few alternatives I'd associate with Dinobot are:
Manowar - Call to Arms
Nightwish - Tenth Man Down
For Overall Ambience, Batman Theme - Molossus
For his periods of Melancholy, Judas Priest - Alone
Strangely, Madonna - Frozen
Random Smatterings for Other Chars:
Tigatron - Nightwish - Creek Mary's Blood
Rampage - Lordi - Blood Red Sandman
Rampage - Apocalyptica - Path
Rampage + ? - Nigthwish - Beauty of the Beast
Yet Another Rampage - The Avalanches - Frontier Psychiatrist
Optimus - Cold Chisel - Khe Sanh <--- I dont quite get it myself. Dont ask.
Cheetor - Initial D - Speedy Speed Boy
Cheetor, When he's not hyper - Sort of, Dunno, Nothin' - Peter Denahy
Rattrap - Fatboy Slim - Weapon of Choice
Megatron - Clint Mansell - Requiem For a Dream
Now I'm going to throw in some Shameless Plugs
Rattrap Vid - Act On Instinct
Dinobot Vid - Into the Darkness
General Vid (Started off as a Megs video) - Sharp Dressed Man
Another General Vid - Judas Priest - Painkiller
The Painkiller one was actually a bit hilarious. The first minute is the straight up intro from Beast Wars unedited, and it matches up PERFECTLY to the song. I was so blown away at the time I discovered this I had to make the rest of the video

Yeah, as much I like Linkin Park, I have to agree that it's been done to death.
I like that song Frozen by Madonna, thought I never really thought of it for Dinobot before.
Though one time, one of my friends on DA suggested the song, "Where Will You Go" by Evanescence as a theme song for Dinobot. I like Evanescence, but I've never heard it before, so I've have to see if can find it on Youtube or Playlist.
Also speaking of Evanescence, for some reason Scorponok sometimes come sto mind when I hear thier song Missing, and I'm not really a fna od Scorponok. But I guess in a way the song kind of works in a way since no one really mourned for him when he died. Here's a link to song and you can tell me what you think: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UV2sxGmZDaA
Also sometimes the song, I'm Still Here by John Rzeznik http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rtNcaQvFvI kind of make sme think fo Cheetor. I think he kind of works with how he matures, but I think it probably work better with his BM personality.

Ahahah, there is alot of good songs I am hearing from you guys! I hope the input keeps coming!
With all these songs thought up and the library of tunes I got this makes my choices much harder to make!
