There's a time and a place for everything. Sometimes when playing Episodes From Liberty City, it’s nice to steal acquire yourself a boat and just cruise the ocean and waterways. This is usually a good time to throw on The Journey and relax to the soothing sounds of ambient music. You know, get away from all the mayhem and hecticness of city life, take in the sunset on the horizon. When you’re ready to return to a life of crime on the mainland you need the right music too. If you’re dealing with the world of corrupt nightlife as Luis Lopez, it makes sense to get into The Beat or San Juan Sounds to soundtrack your activities. But if you’re riding around town with Johnny and The Lost you’ve gotta ride to Liberty City Hardcore.

While listening to LCHC, a great record to rampage to is Sepultura’s “Dead Embryonic Cells”. It's a mean track from their seminal 1991 album Arise, landing in a perfect middle ground between thrash and death metal. Basically, it’s fast enough to make you want to ride a motorcycle recklessly and it's heavy enough to inspire you to try and aim a shotgun while speeding on your Revenant. Honestly, that’s gotta be somewhere in the charter statement for thrash. Plus, it features dudes playing inside ruins which has been metal since Slayer killed it in front of the great pyramids.
