New goal song

[gocanes88]

Get your EDM on.



After initially feeling iffy about it, I'm warming up to the song. I'm sure it'll sound even better when I can hear it in-arena after a goal.

needs more chewbacca, homer simpson, and fred flintstone imo.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

It does sound pretty great in-arena. Certainly better than the various random noises we had before.

The bolded could not be more accurate. The random noise ******** needed to go.

The song? Eh, at least it is not Zombie Nation.

What's wrong with Zombie Nation?

I get that it is played everywhere, by everyone, but it is a solid tune

 

[Navin R Slavin]

That is some corny ****.

I can't stand it, the music, the chanting, I think it's all bad. It makes my ears bleed.

Supposedly I have heard the Wake Forest basketball team began using it circa 2002 before games against Duke/UNC and it took off from there, so I have a dislike for the Deacons now because of that

Sorry to hear that. May I offer this instead to satiate your zombie themed techno:



Actually the entire album is zombie themed and you should get it because it is GOAT.

I bet it'll sound just fine in a big game atmosphere once they finally get there.

These are my thoughts on it as well. Having thousands of your closest friends yelling while it plays makes it sound better in person.

Full disclosure: EDM is hardly my thing, but for some reason, I don't hate Avicii nearly as much as I hate most new music. Maybe it's because he brings in different types of guest vocalists. Based on what I've heard (the 2 or 3 most popular songs), he seems to have a basic format that he sticks to, but bits and pieces of the songs work well for things like this.

If the "HEY HEY" can catch on it's going to be super awesome.

 

[the halleJOKEL]

would be interesting to see an age breakdown of those who like it and those who do not

That's what I'm thinking. Didn't get that full effect in the first home game, but if they stick with it and the team keeps scoring goals, it'll probably be a very popular event by Game 82

 

[Rad ChaLose]

Don't really care for Avicii, don't really care for the song by itself.

However, it sounded really good in the arena, IMO. Like mentioned, if the fans catch on to the 'Hey Hey' it'll be even better.

(spoiler: Hurricanes goals could be literal life savers this season)

 

[caniac247]

I heard it in preseason and liked it. Hearing it in a full building, made me like it even more.

And agreed, if the HEY HEY HEY catches on, it'll be a pretty cool goal song.

 

[the halleJOKEL]

i dont like avicii but i recognize that the song works well as a goal song

 

[Havoq]

Personally have never liked the Rick Flair Wooo after a goal. Just always felt it was out of place.

Not big on EDM either, but could see it catching on.

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

no goal song discussion is complete w/o this

 

[gocanes88]

Like you all have said, EDM songs are really good for goal songs... so I think that's why it'll works quite well. I think we've got a nice little tradition here.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I was fairly neutral on it, but do see some potential. With it being so new, the interaction wasn't fully there yet, and it didn't seem natural at first to try and join in, but that was just because it was new and so unfamiliar. We'll see how it goes.

 

[Cane mutiny]

I'm liking it MUCH better than the old one, at least...vast improvement.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

It doesn't really matter what the song is. We'll be lucky to hear it once a game.

 

[Cane mutiny]

Then again, changing the goal song may be the highlight of our season.

Beat me to it.

I knew there was a new song, pusposely did not try to listen to it before going to the game last night as I had to miss opening night.

To be blunt - I was underwhelmed.
