The Soundtrack To The Apocalypse

[HereForFreeFood]

The whole Gutter Twins Saturnalia album, but mainly "All Misery/Flowers".

 

[Berserker119]

I've always felt this song was somewhat apocalyptic

 

[Bob the zombie]

"requiem for a dream remix" "world without the sun" and "the ink spots"

 

[Hawgh]

Johnny Cash: When the man comes around.

Frank Klepacki: Hell march.

 

[Lord_Panzer]

Sinatra, My Way.

Go ahead. Try to top it.

 

[spectrenihlus]

I win

 

[SquirrelPants]

The entirety of Homestuck Volume 5. [http://www.whatpumpkin.com/]
For such a time, a lot of calm and subdued music backed by the occasional intense song(as well as having 'Descend', an amazingly intense and cool song, followed by Homestuck, a nice calm one, right at the end)would just make for a great soundtrack.

Also, it is three hours long, so that gives us plenty of time.

 

[Zepren]

Kill Tomorrow - Mushroomhead
My Apocalypse - Arch Enemy
Late Goodbye - Poets of the Fall
Running up that hill - Placebo
The End of The World - God Forbid - This one is the must.
Nobody - Skindred
Anthem of our dying day - Story of the year
Fall to Pieces - Velvet Revolver

Enjoy downloading all thoses for when the nukes are incoming!

Edit: Top two i'd say-

 

[Zepren]

I win

I hate that that wasn't on the soundtrack CD that came with the special edition

 

[Gaderael]

I think the Apocalpyse calls for a good mix of Metal and some quiet sombre affairs. nice and bittersweet.

Spoiler: Apocalyptica - Farewell

Spoiler: Dead Can Dance - The Host Of Seraphim

Spoiler: Nince Inch Nails - A Warm Place

Spoiler: Dimmu Borgir - Progenies Of The Great Apocalypse (How can I not include this in the list)

Spoiler: A Marilyn Manson Threefor! Arma-Goddamn-Motherfuckin-Geddon {Teddybear remix). Cryptorchid Antchrist Superstar

Spoiler: The Smashing Pumpkins Age Of Innocence & Thirty-Three

This is all I can think of, at the moment, as I have now been drawn in to a Nostalgia Spiral. Pumpkins away!

same here but they had the poet and the muse on it which is an awesome song

 

[Hollock]

it will probably be wham

 

[Cynimod]

For me, it would be the entire Demon Days album by Gorillaz

 

[Dapper Ninja]

AC/DC (particularly Highway to Hell)

Fixed that right up for you.

OT: Probably some very upbeat classical music, something like Orpheus in the Underworld. For some reason, it works really well with things involving horrific death.

I like Hell's Bells more. XD So there!

While I prefer Highway to Hell, Hell's Bells is also a good song both on its own and for an apocalypse. So there!

 

[Azazcyh]

Kinda surprised this isn't up here yet.

My pick is this:

 

[Hyperactiveman]

Too many songs to think of in the metal department... Pretty mush anyone and everyone of them would be best suited.

But if I was pushed to choose then I'd pick albums like:

And Justice for All
Ride the Lightning
Master of Puppets
Leviathan
Blood Mountain
Crack the Skye
The Blackening
The Dethalbum
Rust in Piece
Peace Sells
Horror Show
The Glorious Burden
Overture of the Wicked
Night of the Stormrider
Clayman
Come Clarity
Ten Thousand Fists
As Daylight Dies
The End of Heartache
Hellbilly Deluxe
Show No Mercy
Seasons in the Abyss
Reign in Blood
Christ Illusion
All Hope is Gone
Vol 3: The subliminal Verses
The Formation of Damnation

 

[Bravo Company]

To everyone to put "I Don't Want to Set The World on Fire"....

 

[Blueruler182]

Wouldn't they be doing bad stuff? Killing people and all that?

It's Rick Roll. And Numa Numa. I can see children being butchered to Numa Numa. But my flashbacks are nobody's business, I say Numa Numa.

Jesus someone beat me to it.

I think the 'How Do I Live (Bunny Back In The Box version)' is perfect for those tearful goodbyes.

Some of the tracks from earlier Homestuck albums would be good too. Particularly the 'Showtime (Imp Strife Mix)', 'Aggrieve (Violin Refrain)' and 'Skies of Skaia' from vol. 1; and 'Carbon Nadsat/Cuestick Genius' from the Midnight Crew: Drawing Dead.
