Heavy Metal feeling spells for Heavy Metal Themed Lore Bard?

[werescythe]

I've been experimenting around with the idea of a Goblin "Heavy Metal" Lore Bard, so I figured I'd ask what type of spells might fit the theme for the Magical Secrets (as well as Additional Magical Secrets)?

I figure that Fireball makes sense and maybe Spirit Guardians.

Besides obvious illusion spells and cantrips for producing sound:

Thaumaturgy for a booming voice and sound effects.

Then Shatter, Cloud of Knives, Hypnotic Pattern, Pyrotechnics, and Gust of Wind (Flavored as sound), all sound good to me.

Spikes are good too, so maybe spike stones?

And Heat Metal is well….just metal related so that makes it Metal.

For bonus points use Summon Beast to call for an Angry Red Panda, and Aggretusoko of sorts to be your backup singer.

Maybe get Reverse Gravity at a high end level.

Summon Demon if your one of those bands…

Pulse Wave: Could be a large speaker that pushes or pulls enemies with music.
Haste: Your metal music amps up someone.
Erupting Earth: Your metal music shreds the area in front of you

This thread reminds me of a Gwar show that I survived.

Thunderstep for explosive entrances and memorable exits.

Well I would go earth genasi or shadar kai or goliath rather than goblin, personally. Having some kind of effect that makes you able to face-tank damage while playing music is the most metal thing I can think of.

But beyond that?

Shatter is a must. Strum a power cord and blow someone up.
Spirit guardians is awesome. Go on a massive rift and rip the enemies apart.
Armor of Agathys lets you take hits while playing.
Synaptic Static is what happens when you play your music too loud
Thunderclap is also great.

I suppose I could also take Call Lightning so the enemies can be Thunderstruck. ;P

Oh not a bad call at all, not a bad call at all.
