The music aspect of the game draws parallels to the viral "See Dem Aliens" song by CG5, capturing the hype surrounding the Area 51 event. Users express disappointment in Matty Roberts for abandoning the original community in favor of a separate music festival in Las Vegas, which they view as a sellout move. Overall, the game's soundtrack resonates with the themes of excitement and betrayal associated with the infamous Area 51 raid.
- “The game is pretty much like the 'cg5' song 'See Dem Aliens', which was very popular during 2019 before the storm was to happen, with lyrics like 'we want to see dem aliens'.”
- “As for Matty, that jerk of a Storm Area 51 creator abandoned everyone and went to have his own music festival 170 miles away from Area 51 in downtown Las Vegas, aka 'Area 51 Celebration' (which had nothing to do with Area 51 at all). He basically sold out and abandoned everyone in the desert just to have a crappy outdoor rave promoted by Bud Light, down the street from Fremont Street in downtown Las Vegas!”
