About VIKING mode

Take the VIKING hardstyle mode and override any of the 14 customisable dimensions with your own free-text. The base VIKING prompt below already passes through GENPROMPT's quality scoring (avg PREMIUM tier across the 18-field canonical contract); your overrides surgically replace the values you care about while everything else keeps the curated pool depth.

VIKING mode is viking war hardstyle — battle horn stabs, massive 808 booms, folk-metal undertones. It belongs to the Hardstyle universe (Hardstyle · gregorian · viking · raw hard dance).

The 14 customisable dimensions

Each row below names one of the canonical dimensions you can override with your own free-text. The tip suggests the kind of descriptor Suno responds well to. Combine 3-7 overrides per prompt for best results.

Pro tips

  • Use 25-40 char descriptors — anything longer is auto-truncated to keep the prompt under Suno's 1000-char budget.
  • Pin the fields you love with the 📌 LOCK button (Pro) so RE-ROLL preserves them across iterations.
  • Combine with HYBRID in the WORKBENCH to override fields ON TOP of a 2-mode blend — maximum custom control.
