Look, nostalgia is a toxic impulse, I will be the first to admit that. But I can't help but feel a pure serotonin hit watching like ten minutes of this guy blast Slipknot and Beastie Boys tracks in Half-Life Deathmatch through the most blown out mic available.
The video "Nature is Healing" is from uploader Stolid. In it, player "Ryan Gosling" blasts a series of Top 40 radio hits from the 90s and 2000s. Non-zero chance this video gets DMCA'd within a week, thus invalidating this post, so for posterity here is the tracklist.
• Beastie Boys - Intergalactic
• Eminem - Without Me
• Drowning Pool - Bodies
• System Of A Down - Chop Suey!
• Slipknot - Duality
• The Hives - Hate To Say I Told You So
• Korn - Got The Life
• Daft Punk - Harder Better Faster Stronger
• Red Hot Chili Peppers - Can't Stop
• Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
• Axel F - Crazy Frog
• Foo Fighters - Everlong
• Haddaway - What Is Love
"Play some Ramstein." Buddy, I am with you there.
