These days there are video games and slots based on almost anything, and fortunately that includes music.
Whether you’re a pop fan or a metalhead, there are music-themed slots out there for everyone, many of which are considered some of the best online casino games ever released.
What Are Online Slots?
Before we begin, it may be a good idea to quickly explain what online slots are for anyone that is yet to journey into the world of online casino gaming. Like their brick-and-mortar counterparts, online slots usually feature five reels packed of symbols that spin. The aim of the game is to wager money on each spin, and hope that correlating symbols line up. If they do, you could win money, free spins or multipliers. Really, it’s that simple. For more information, here’s a great breakdown of the most popular games available, as well as a more in-depth guide on how slots tend to work. Now, on with the show.
1. The NETENT Rocks Trilogy
Let’s start with arguably the biggest, best collection of three – yes, three – music slots ever developed. The NETENT Rocks Trilogy was released over a period of nine months back in 2016, with each title completely rocking the iGaming world. First, in the January of that year, came Guns N Roses a slot themed entirely around the epic band and featuring their greatest hits. In April this slot was followed by Jimi Hendrix, a psychedelic, visual masterpiece packed with nods to the age of flower-power and, of course, Hendrix himself. Finally, in September the trilogy was rounded off by a Motörhead release which really did bring the song “Ace of Spades” to life in an entirely new way. As these releases are so popular, they can be found on almost all leading online casinos.
2. Michael Jackson: King of Pop
Everyone loves the late, great King of Pop Michael Jackson, and he is represented extremely well in this premium slot. Developed by Bally Technologies, this title is also available at the majority of top casinos. As the five reels spin, Michael Jackson’s entire catalogue of hits plays in the background with everything from Beat It to Smooth Criminal on the roster. Jackson himself even features in the reels, representing two of the most important symbols the bonus and the jackpot. Other symbols include the singer’s hat, gloves and moonwalking shoes, while even the letters don a number of jewels and crowns.
3. KISS
There just seems to be something about slots based around rock legends, doesn’t there? Well, it may be down to how exciting they can be, which is certainly the case with this KISS-themed slot created by Williams Interactive. This isn’t just your typical music slot either, as the developers decided to use a unique Colossal Reels layout, meaning that there are two sets of reels and plenty of wins. Inside those reels you’ll find each of the band members representing wilds, which could be anything from free spins to multipliers. As we’re sure you’ve guessed, KISS anthems play on a loop throughout the game, creating an epic atmosphere.
4. Karaoke Party
Now, we thought we’d finish with something a little different. Instead of focusing on one specific band or genre of music, Microgaming’s Karaoke Party takes the best elements of the music scene and merges them together to create an original music slot. While our previous mentions tend to appear at most online casinos, this one can be a little trickier to find. It is available at operators such as Roxy Palace casino, a popular site that operates from the EU and provides a whole host of games according to this Canadian Roxy Palace review. Once you find Karaoke Party, spin the five reels, keep an eye out for the red dice scatter symbols and have fun.
There you go: four (or six if you count every individual NETENT release) of the best music slots that are available to play online right now. Are there any that you love that we haven’t mentioned? Let us know in the comments below.
