Kraken Goal Song

[Burgmania]

As we get closer and closer to Opening Night in Seattle (and as a game presentation nut), I'm curious to see what Seattle faithful think should play when the Kraken score a goal at Climate Pledge Arena.

The last expansion franchise hit the nail on the head with 'Vegas Lights' from Panic! at the Disco. It's a catchy tune & mentions the city (the first point is quite important, the second is gravy).

I had made a concept horn / song using Pearl Jam's "Lightning Bolt". Do you see the Kraken embracing their 90s rock music heritage, or do you see them going in another direction?

I'm excited to see the responses here. Thanks for your time.

My suggestions for goal songs.




(stolen from Sound of Hockey )

Also, my choice while the team hits the ice

 

[Dog]

Maybe viking fog horn(Kraken Norse mythology) along with rotation of Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Queensrÿche,Alice in Chains, and Soundgarden songs?

 

[The Marquis]

WA State Ferry Horn along with an absolute CLASSIC song local to Seattle (No Hendrix please, it's just not that type of music) and you'll have a winning combo. I'm picking Soundgarden's Big Dumb Sex and immediately getting fired, but it would be good for a laugh.

Also.

Penalty for the oppnent ---> Man in the Box by Alice in Chains

WA ferry goal horn for sure, that's a no-brainer.


I agree with the comment that the Tacoma's horn sounds the best, since there is some variation.

Going to go out on a bit of a limb with the goal song and steer away from the usual local stereotype playlist...I haven't thought of the perfect individual song yet, but would prefer something more metal instead of all the grunge I've been sick of since 1995. I know it's going to happen, though.

Alestorm - Death Throes of the Terrorsquid (chorus)

Smells like Teen Spirit

Wouldn't the title be contradictory of the concept of a goal song?

meh, it'd still be better than [insert grunge song].

I'd love it if the goal song was a pirate-y jaunt, heck, do a bunch of pirate sing-a-longs during intermission, get the crowd involved

 

[sigma six]

^I like this idea, feels like it would mesh well with the whole undersea monster thing. Plenty of soundtrack to be found in the pirate/ viking metal genres as well.

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

When the team hits the ice it should be For Whom The Bell Tolls.

 

[ckg927]

Seattle had better DAMNED well use the ferry horn as their goal horn. That will immediately become one of the more intimidating goal horns in not only the NHL but all of hockey.

Tacoma horn or bust

[Toomany7pins]

Was actually thinking the same thing.

song has a killer intro especially when the drums and bass kick in.

 

[Tao Jersey Jones]

Also.

Cracking Up by Nick Lowe

or when they take a lead.

 

[Fisticuffer]

Thunderstruck would work for me.

 

[RainyCityHockey]

Thunderstruck would work for me.

Way too generic IMO and I doubt it would look good to play anything with "Thunder" in it at this arena....

 

[brewski420]

Thunderstruck is best right before puck drop as team comes on the ice. But it is too generic I agree.

My suggestions for goal songs.

The chorus of Song 2 by Blur would be an outstanding choice, but i can't help but feel that Seattle is such a landmark musical town that using a song by a British artist might not go down all that well.

 

[sigma six]

It was staring me in the face the whole time.
Local rock heroes that taught even Nirvana how to do it, and this is their most accessible and catchy tune.



There are even a couple of different parts of the song that would work well as a goal song or an intro.

taste!

What a dream it would be if we were so fortunate to have a Melvins song played at a game. It actually sounds like something that would be great for when the players came out. It'll NEVER happen though.

Oh man, I have ridden on that Kittitas so much .. LOL. That and the Tokitae and Cathlamet. I can complain non-stop about the time I have spent in ferry lines but the ferry horns should most definitely be our goal horn ..
