This Week’s Theme:
DCeased - Zombie Fighting
Continuing on with last week’s suspenseful trek into the great unknown, DC’s spending this week celebrating our having added DCeased to the service! To do so, we’re going from one end of the spectrum to the opposite, from the ocean and all that’s hidden within its depths, to dry land and the creatures that lurk upon its great expanse.
For those of you unfamiliar with DCeased, it features a world in turmoil as people fall victim to a zombie-like state, and as such, we’re left wondering what your zombie apocalypse playlist would sound like (or sounds like… if you’re like us and already have one, lol). Would you choose songs that lift your spirit, or songs better suited for the long spells of traveling you’d do looking for supplies?
What other parts of life would inspire a theme song or two? Let us know below!
While lyrics must abide to Forum Guidelines, the songs can be anything, of any genre, as long as it meets each week’s theme!
Curious what Mixtape Monday is?
Every week, we’ll post the title of our latest Mixtape, and you post a track of your choice in the comments below! We’ll follow up next Mixtape Monday with the full list of tunes collected from the week before. And if our “What’s the Last Song You Heard?” thread is any indication, you all have superb taste in tunes!

), Dead by Sunrise’s End of The World for the time in it being a zombie outbreak (also as a side note, first heard this song in an episode of Smallville where then Green Arrow was picking up then Plastique to do some good [also fun side note is the actress who then played Plastique turned out to play Barry’s daughter in The Flash]), and finally but not least in these mentions is Breaking Benjamin’s Until The End to listen to when the anguish of taking on the zombies gets too intense.
what music would I be channeling thru a baseball bat in the event of a zombie apocalypse!?
