Alice (soundtrack) - Pandemonium

[LucetTheHedgehog]

"Here's a riddle: When is a croquette hammer like a billy club? I'll tell you; Whenever you want it to be."

[Neveryourbusiness]

As much as i like the new Alice game (madness returns) the music is not at scary/freaky/creepy/chilling as the first game. Also Alice has so much powers in the game..i would've loved it so much more if the new Alice would've been MUCH scarier and also a bit more Silent Hill-like because with all the power-ups and weapons Wonderland is not as scary and insane as it should be. Alice becomes mentally disordered so the game should've been a LOT darker and scarier..i still love the new game though :)

[Raventears12]

@Neveryourbusiness totally agree!

[CatatonicClarity]

The quote at the start is my most remembered. It's when you're in the skool.

[Blacaca180]

My ears lost their virginity to this game \(o_o\)

[BlackPhoenix00280]

Because there is a b in both and an n in neither.

Doesn't even matter what the question was because that is the answer to everything :)

[tweeterbird2009]

um is the game a horror video game cause ive seen the movie and this is kinda scary

[ItsCarmenJones]

@tweeterbird2009 theres not a movie to this game....... Nevermind... The first game in my opinion is scarier than the sequel, the sequel didnt ever frighten me. This game isnt tht scary, but it has suprises that can make you jump, or moments where you say " WHAT THE HELL MAN???? " But its a good game

[tweeterbird2009]

@ItsCarmenJones ok thanks cause i really didnt even know about the game but it kinda freaked me out and i was just wondering what the game was

[TMMLover555]

Whoa, wearing headphones listening to this is creepy put awesome. The music goes from one side of your head to the other! I swear!

[painoftheheart12]

@TMMLover555 XD Yes it does. That effect always gives me chills and has me looking over my shoulder in dark rooms.

[TMMLover555]

@painoftheheart12 Same! btw, I LOOOVVEEE your icon :)

[painoftheheart12]

@TMMLover555 XD I adore your's too XD We peopler always seem to find each other. XD

[TMMLover555]

@painoftheheart12 Oh yeah xDD....friends? ouo

[curiousepegasus]

@TMMLover555

Yeah! The Soundtrack's AWESOME!! I made a FREE CD with all of my fav AMA music!( which is most of them!) I also have a Zelda and Spyro CD. Alice1 soundtrack is WAAAY BETTER than Alice2's!! Thanks Chris Vrenna!! :-D

[TMMLover555]

@curiousepegasus I agree.

[karasuman78]

I freaking love Chris Vrenna

[curiousepegasus]

@karasuman78

Especially THIS OST!! Thanks Chris for an AWESOME soundtrack! pity he didn't return in Madness Returns...:-(

[MrHatnClogsKisuke]

Um.. I'm confused.. Is this soundtrack for the original or new Alice video game?? thx!

[LouisesPointOfView]

@MrHatnClogsKisuke it's from American Mcgee's original Alice.

[FireWolfLovesAxel]

Hee hee hee... *Picks up croquet mallet*

[tHeWasTeDYouTh]

freaking awesome

[Kiki53754]

OK, this is bookish - but I happen to know that L. Carrol himself did not know what the answer to the riddle was. It was nonsense (why is a raven like a writing desk). Inky quills is a great answer though :)

[lizrocks888]

LOBOTOMY!

[Brookie626]

Any true A Mgcee's Alice fan knows these:

There is more than one way to skin a cat, if you pardon the expression.~Alice

Only the foolish believe suffering is just wages for being different...~ Cheshire cat

Bad timing, Pity..reliable help is so hard to find these days! come in my dear, your just in time for tea...~Mad Hatter

Your pathetic attempts to reclaim your sanity have failed...~Red Queen

Do your best alice... you can always do your best...you must always do...best...~Gryphon

[MrKlausbaudelaire]

@Brookie626 I'm not here looking for a fight - Alice Thats a pity, one is certainly looking for you - cat "...and I'm left....TEALESS T.T - hatter you dont know your own mind - queen . . . . . ...OFF WITH HER HEAD!! - Red Queen

[oly355]

dreamingupreality, you failed the puzzle horribly...

[XxAngeliniaxX]

A raven is like a writing desk because they have Inky Quils :D I just figured it out!!!

[Blackemperess]

ever since i heard that riddle years ago i've always believed the answer to be 'because its stark raven mad', which makes sense if you think about it. but i suppose it is one of those unanswerable riddles that will forever plague the world. :D

[webshows100]

I friggin' love this game. Best game ever made.

[oldschoolgamerz]

I think i shall play the game again...just for the awesome soundtrack! thx for providing it. ^^

[tweety70366]

does enybody that lives in da u.s.a can tell me where exactly can i get da game? i want to play it so bad but since it was out 2 years ago i don't know where to find it..pliss.. :D i would be very happy if someone helps me ^_^!

[choconinny]

@tweety70366 I got mine on ebay, but I live in Australia :S it's probably on the American Ebay too

[InvaderMel2]

what does he say at the beginning? .-.

[GrayPhantom13]

@InvaderMel2

When is a croquet mallet like a billy club?

I'll tell you, whenever you want it to be >]

[GodofChaos45]

I love that riddle. haha

That voice actor has a great voice.

[fidykon]

@GodofChaos45 I've heard that the chesshire cat's voice is the same of mojojojo of PPG :O

[GodofChaos45]

@fidykon Thats awesome. That's whey I really respect voice actors.

[vfdsunny9]

@fidykon I know! I was watching PPG the other day because it was on, and I was like "Wait a minute?!" When Mojo Jojo talked. "OMG! Is that the Cheshire Cat's voice from Alice?!?!?!?!?" Me and my sister who both play Alice were very weirded out. We looked it up on the internet, and strangely enough, it is!

[Rob86ism]

i love this song

[Milenko00]

*re-installs alice*

My favorite level. Creeped me out BIG time, and now I remember why

[idlehands28]

I remember this game as extremely hard even with the cheat codes. It look great for its time.

[Starnacle]

Cheshire Cat's voice makes me swoon.

[emogirlanime]

this game is the best! it has a great story and it is scary (LOVE SCARY!).

[calhithespian]

best video game soundtrack ever

[vfdsunny9]

This is one of the best games EVER!!!!!!!!!!

[andyangelsylvester]

is this game on the pc? if so, how can i get it?

[rawwrxlizz]

@andyangelsylvester yeah its for the pc. but it came out in 2000 so it might be hard to find.

[andyangelsylvester]

oh! thx anywayz! =O^O=

[rawwrxlizz]

your welcome (:

[andyangelsylvester]

if anyone has played the game, can you tell me if its good and i should play it?

[VladimirVLD]

Skip it,it's horrible in a good way, though. Confused? Play on, then. I loved the game.

[andyangelsylvester]

@VladimirVLD

so i should play it?

because it looks like a really cool game, like the ones i usually play.

[VladimirVLD]

Of course, you simply must.

[wastagwaga]

this is one of the best adventure games you'll EVER play.

[LoboDeBayamon]

@andyangelsylvester ja!! its more then good ;)

play it play it.. you go insane 0_o .. lol

[reveriehill1614]

This game has the MOST amazing soundtrack!

[omgnowaffle]

They both have inky quills~~ :D

huh, i used to adore this ....idea << Alice in Wonderland FTW

In any way,shape, or form Alice rules *nods* ^^

[NECROHZP]

That cheshire cat's voice is AWESOME!

who's made it?

[Aveilthe]

Who has made it, silly.

[AneaMikota]

@sloppyjoes7 who "has" made it..

Who's = who has?

Hn, poor grammar indeed!

[GrayPhantom13]

Is the love this cat shares, the signs warnings and bewares, to get passed the pair, the Mad hatter and the March hare? Or what is it that he dosn't share, that holds us into his menacing stare... left in trance, without a chance at a second glance, He's gone... but where?

[GodofChaos45]

@GrayPhantom13 Well done.

[Ritarou]

adore this game, the tale, the characters, the music, perfetto

[PurpleHillSeeker]

what goes up must come down the angels of pandora all around, flit and flitter, flitter and flitter beware the billy club, it might just slip.

Damn a poet and I didn't know it XD

[choconinny]

Why is a raven like a writing desk?

[lopolo42]

They both produce flat notes.

Dur hur hur.

[Kelarre653]

They both make flat notes and are almost NEVAR turned backwards.

[Hinsei13]

I loved the NEVAR thing Caroll wrote :D But the publisher's didn't get it and "fixed" it...

[ChibiHoboProductions]

Poe wrote on both.

[SoulCalibrator]

@ChibiHoboProductions There truely was no answer, friend

[xXSpazzyWantsAHugXx]

@ChibiHoboProductions Totally dude. ;D Yur awesome for knowing that. xD People would make fun of me cuz I knew the answer to that. xD

[VladimirVLD]

Because it's black like ink!

[DarkFairy003]

@choconinny

Because Poe wrote on them both!

[deadlyflower13]

@choconinny They both produce notes and have inky quills ;)

[JakanA]

@choconinny They both have inky quills

[chinangel]

@choconinny they were both written on by poe :P

[RuikeiWolf]

@choconinny They're both smart and watchful; while the raven is obvious to explain - the writing desk is as I say because it is written against. Words are carved into its being; it soaks in knowledge?

[TheGIRROX]

@RuikeiWolf lmao u thot ther was an answer? i hav the book Lewis Carrol wrote the riddles in the correct answer is :It's NOT LOL ^-^

[RuikeiWolf]

@TheGIRROX I tried to look at it in a logical way.

[DerOrk]

@choconinny 'Because it can produce a few notes, tho they are very flat; and it is nevaR put with the wrong end in front"

[EatSomeApplePie]

@choconinny why is google buzz like a kitchen sink?

[Brunick34]

@choconinny Because there's an N in Neither, and a B in Both! :D

[YoukoKuwabara]

@choconinny cause poe wrote on both

[Kelarre653]

@choconinny

Both have inky quills and are almost never turned the wrong way around.

[Barbe]

@choconinny

You can write on both. :)

[PaulinaH727]

@choconinny because edgar allen poe wrote on both.

[JollyGothicKid]

@choconinny Because the notes for which they are noted are not noted for being musical notes.

[coggearalex]

@choconinny They both make a creak

get it now? good

[DerOrk]

@choconinny Because they both come with inky quills.



[choconinny]

@choconinny Thanks everyone for replying, even though I wrote this over a year ago, I didn't expect all the replies

[GentlemanAeon777]

@choconinny Theres no answer to that riddle, but the accepted answer is "Because both were poems written by Edgar Allen Poe"

[DreamingUPReality]

@choconinny because they're not the same

[XxAngeliniaxX]

@choconinny They both have Inky Quils!

[DaLilShorty8999]

@choconinny neither one is made of cheese.

[imakeyougoWTF]

@DaLilShorty8999 best answer ever.

[DooriChan]

@choconinny Because they both have wings - a raven has wings (well duh) and a writing desk has wings of imagination with it when someone sits there writing...

[drzax30051]

@choconinny Lewis Carroll. 1896 Preface to Alice in Wonderland:

". . .Because it can produce a few notes, tho they are very flat; and it is nevar put with the wrong end in front!"

Though this was just an afterthought, it wasn't meant to have a true answer really

[calciferILY]

@choconinny Poe wrote on both? (0v0?)

[DarkMiyuki3456]

@calciferILY Edgar Allen Poe wrote The Raven

[DarkFairy003]

@DarkMiyuki3456 "Allan" not "Allen" ;)

[DarkMiyuki3456]

@DarkFairy003 oops lol thanks ^^

[locatixs]

@choconinny Poe wrote about both?

[RyuuFurukawa]

@locatixs

haha! that's funny, I read that poem :)

[imakeyougoWTF]

@choconinny I haven't the slightest idea. :)

[Heavenlea6292]

@choconinny I haven't the foggiest. 

[GentlemanAeon777]

@choconinny Because Edgar Allen Poe written both.

[althrouve007]

@choconinny My answer would be, its because both have legs and both have quills. Both have bills; the anatomical part to the bird, and the bills to sign on the table. Both bear the color black, from the ink to the natural plumage of the bird. And of course, the less obfuscated answer about Edgar Allen Poe who wrote on both.

[Jill4ChrisRedfeild]

@choconinny Because I told it to be like that >:/ haha

[choconinny]

@Jill4ChrisRedfeild haha best reply out of the literal 1000 I've recieved for this comment in a whole year

[Jill4ChrisRedfeild]

@choconinny haha thanks lol :)

[AliceRage1]

oh I LOVE The Cheshire cat's voice!

[PurpleHillSeeker]

i love the cats voice makes shivers go down your spine.

[jetherwing]

If Wonderland had a national anthem, this would be it.

[vivasuperspaz]

What is the riddle he is saying??

[ImSooRadxCore]

When is a croquet mallet like a billy club?

I'll tell you...

Whenever you want it to be.

[vivasuperspaz]

AH! Thanks.

[JungleOasis]

It doesn't matter. It won't make any sense anyway x__x

[vivasuperspaz]

Sure it does- A billy mallet is used for hitting right?? So a croquet mallet can be used for beating when ever you want- Pretty wicked, makes sense to me.

[ikkedoch]

It makes sense but it still a weird riddle. I guess it has something to do with Wonderland, remember the impossible riddles from the March Hare and Mat Hatter in the original?

[ikkedoch]

*mad hatter

[vivasuperspaz]

Exactly! Made sense to me as well.

[XxAndisaurusxX]

when is a cruquet club like a *billy* club?(is tht actually called billy??)ill tell u....wen ever you want it to be.

The Chesire cat is awesome!! (and funny)

[Gaaraismybf]

"When is a croquet mallet like a billy club? I'll tell you: Whenever you want it to be." :)

More inspiring words ffrom the Chesire Cat!

[Kelarre653]

Yes. It's being made by Spicy Horse...

Mcgee had better not fuck this one up...

[CartoonHeroine]

I love the Cheshire Cat's voice. It's so creepy, but somehow captivating at the same time...much like a majority of the game. American McGee's Alice is just awesome.

[purpleblizzard]

Does this song play in any other level besides the mines?

In any case, it rocks and both American Mcgee and Chris Vrenna deserve praise for the game and music.

Pure epicness in each song.

[Kelarre653]

Yes it does. It plays in the Land of Fire and Brimstone level once, too.

[FrozenPeaches]

the best bit imo is 1:52 - 2:03 <3

[RadcliffeRox101]

Oh my god i agree :D

[PasswordFreak]

this game was wicked and now I want to play it again

I wonder if they will buff up the graphics a bit in the next one (don't mind if they don't but still wishing a bit)

[FrozenPeaches]

err... its been quite a while since the release of the original Alice.. so im assuming that they will DEFINITELY "buff up" the graphics.. their obviously not going to release a game that has dated graphics.. that would be retarded and stupid marketing

[chilleliz]

hey you have to admit that the outdated graphics give the game character right

[SuperGuitarDude]

Yay! These stars I shall inherit for my forthcoming generation.

[analockman]

Yes

try search at gamefaqs

I think they are getting start it

[SadyS88]

Best game EVER!

Best soundtrack EVER!

Best story EVER!

Just... breathtaking..

P.s. I have the Soundtrack. :$

[demondevil666]

ummm he's busy right now he can't help you now but the Cheshire cat can :O

[analockman]

Finally This game have a sequel on PS3

[Astharoth06660]

Are u sure? That will b great, do u know wend?

[kaltes69]

A Sequel?! That would be effin awesome

[Agentbromsnor]

Yeah its true, American Mcgee announced it in his blog actually. I couldn't believe it myself! I can't wait for it!

[fullmetalgirl]

Oh, that would be freakin awesome!!

[joelaka3pac123]

yeah and its ganna be for 360(for what i know) too cant wait im ganna get it for sure

[ilikeshinyobjekts]

Will there be one for PC?

[PunkPlushie]

Yeah, also another for the PS3.

Hopefully it shall be as good as this one and they don't rush it.

[ilikeshinyobjekts]

i hope there will be a commercial or something advertising for it so i know when it comes out.

[JungleOasis]

One for the PSP? >.> Or am I being too hopeful?

[PunkPlushie]

I don't think they'll make one for PSP, probably just Xbox, PS3, PC and so fourth.

Nonetheless, whatever they intend on doing should be quite awesome.

[TheIllusoryGentleman]

i totally llooovvee this song!!

When is a croquet mallet like a billy club?...Whenever you want it to be...

That's like my fave quote of all time now!!

[FictionalAffliction]

this is such a beattiful song <3

[paganchick11]

oh christ,there goes my sleep.

[fireorb2]

At 10:8 there is a lot of emotion in the choir.

[TestaXDizzy]

If only the song lasted that long.

[fireorb2]

I meant to say 1:08 LOL my mistake!

[Cute00Vampi]

yay! ^^ <3

[Cute00Vampi]

D:! Can't we share it? T.T

[isallabouthorses]

Oh rly? So awesome.

[Vrione]

I feel as though I've committed a crime by losing the soundtrack to this game.

D:

Beautiful score.

[Gaaraismybf]

OFF WITH YOUR HEAD! D:<

[Cute00Vampi]

I LOVE the cat's voice, it's so....hot ;D

Awsome game ^^! love it

[isallabouthorses]

Yeah pretty much the same here.....EXcept when you have your volume turned up all the way have headphones on and then you hear creaking noises behind you....

That just makes it ALL the better......(Sarcasm by the way)........

[W4RW017]

This song is just so brilliant!

[SasatheShy]

"When is a croquet mallet like a billy club? Whenever you want it to be." That's my fave riddle done by the Cheshire Cat in this entire game.
