What does everyone think are the best mmo sound tracks.  Personally I think Ragnarok Online 2 has probably one of the most beautiful sound tracks of any game in years.

Althought there are some pretty good tracks in other titles that I heard, like the one in Granado Espada is pretty good.  Post some music from some other mmos you find have a good sound track.

Eve Online has a fantastic soundtrack.

I've also enjoyed the soundtrack to Sword of the New World

I tend to shut down MMO music VERY fast, but Vanguard has some really great tunes.

It reminds me of the music used by Cirque du Soleil. I am afraid it will get boring very fast eventhough it sounds appealing at first.

And it certainly is not the best sound of any mmo. What Jesper Kyd did for Spellborn is much better.

EVE is probably my most favorite.

For the short amount of time I played EVE, I was very impressed with the music in the game. It seemed to fit the atmosphere real well.

I would also agree that Vanguard has very good music, it's one of the things  they did very well. The music came with the collectors edition that can be picked up very cheap. Like most things it's also probably available via a torrent.

Places like Stormwind in World of Warcraft was also excellent.

I will make a vote for some songs in WoW that I've heard. Most notable for me are:

1.) Ashenvale - So emotional, fills your senses, and you can 'feel' the music as it plays - Feels very much elvish.

2.) Thunderbluff - Wow! This has such a unique sound to it that I had to include it.

3.) Most of the Inns - Most notable: Brill (Undead newbie town).

4.) Undercity - Walking into the city and hearing the music, then hearing the faint actual sounds from previous Warcraft cinemactics (Arthas, the King's speech, etc when you step into the throne room), very cool.

 

Although not an MMO, I have to throw in some of the absolute best music I've ever heard in video games, period:

1.) HALO series - There is hardly a rival that can compete, IMO, to this absolutely amazing soundtrack (all 3 of them!)

2.) Mechwarrior 2 - Just absolutely amazing music for its time - Made your heart pump!
