Punk Rocker and the Best Music Themed Slot Games

2 mins read

Even the most DIY, anti-mainstream rock bands have to come up with ways to make extra money when they’re not touring or releasing new music.

That usually takes the form of licensing songs for use in adverts, TV shows and movies, or creating a new line of merchandise.

Online Casinos Provide an Opportunity for Musicians

The methods mentioned above are all traditional but online casinos are proving to be a hot new area for bands and music artists. It’s unexpected, to say the least, but a number of bands have allowed slot game developers to use their music, branding and likeness. These rock and roll titles are available to play as real cash slot games, alongside other titles that feature unique features like Megaways Pays or have large progressive or network jackpots.

So which of these genre-mashing slots stands out from the crowd?

Punk Rocker

A number of historical figures and fictional characters, including Winston Churchill and the Mona Lisa, have been given the punk treatment in this slot game created by NoLimit City.

Punk Rocker features some 46,656 ways to win on its five reels, while special symbols like Anarchy and Civil War – partly named after Sex Pistols and The Clash hits respectively – reveal more of what you can expect.

Features including jumping wilds, re-spins and scatters help to boost your winning chances, and the edgy soundtrack and Vivienne Westwood-inspired visuals will make punks of all ages feel right at home.

Motörhead

NetEnt, one of the premier slot game developers, changed the face of music-based casino titles in 2016 when they released Motörhead, part of their ‘NetEnt Rocks’ trilogy.

The games featured officially licensed tracks, including Ace of Spades in the case of Motörhead, as well as typically dense guitar riffs and basslines when the reels are spinning and certain symbols are revealed. As well as being immersed in the world of Lemmy and co, you’ll also get the chance to spin five reels that feature 76 paylines.

Casino gaming never sounded so good…

Jimi Hendrix

The NetEnt Rocks series also features titles dedicated to Guns ‘n Roses and Jimi Hendrix, and it’s the latter that takes a spot in our rundown.

The game features Foxy Lady, Purple Haze and other Hendrix classics on its soundtrack, and the gameplay is very reminiscent of Motörhead with stacks of paylines and unique special symbols.

The psychedelic graphics will whisk you back to the 1960s too – a decade in which the seeds of punk were first sown.

Megadeth

It’s hard to believe, granted, but Dave Mustaine and co have a slot game dedicated to them!

Produced by Leander Games, players will enjoy Mega Nudges and even expanding Dave Mustaine wilds, as well as some dark and moody visuals and audio. There are features including Hangar 18 free spins and the Head Crusher bonus round.

So there you have it, there are a handful of crypto casino online that have a guitar music theme to them. In addition to boasting outstanding soundtracks, they offer players the chance to win some handy cash prizes too.
