Grand Theft Auto: Vice City launched in 2002, set in a fictionalised 1986 Miami, and its licensed radio stations became a defining part of the game. V-Rock presented itself as Vice City's home for hard rock and metal, fronted by Lazlow, a real radio personality who voiced versions of himself across the series. Clips of the station idents later circulated on soundboards alongside other series favourites like the GTA V notification, and fans still use the V-Rock intro to instantly signal Vice City nostalgia online.
About this sound
The V-Rock radio intro from GTA Vice City, featuring Lazlow's station ident. Used in edits, gaming videos and nostalgia posts for an instant 80s rock vibe.
This is the short station intro for V-Rock, the hard rock and heavy metal radio station in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Hosted in character by Lazlow, the clip has his energetic DJ voice over a burst of guitar-driven station branding, capturing the over-the-top 1980s Miami rock station feel of the game. It lasts only a few seconds but is instantly recognisable to players who spent hours driving around Vice City listening to V-Rock. The sound works as a nostalgic punch, setting a rebellious, high-energy tone before music, gameplay or commentary begins.
