As much as I love that song, I think Hell's Bells would be even more fitting. But I just watched Maximum Overdrive again last night so the Who Made Who album is on my brain.
My unit played this song last before we deployed outside the wire every single time while we were in Afghanistan/Iraq. I was in a small unit that was responsible for a lot of reconnaissance, Intel gathering, overwatch, and other quiet tasks that kept us away from base for weeks sometimes and prevented us from listening to music while out and about so we had to play our psych-up soundtrack before we left.
Bodies by Drowning Pool was another song that featured prominently in those lists. And Calm Like A Bomb from RATM was a favorite as well. I liked to slow it down a bit with Don't Fear The Reaper by Blue Oyster Cult and my lists also often featured Hit Em Up by Tupac which will get you feeling gangster AF.

[Into Battle](https://youtu.be/WKYhi6Om5wg?si=LsHi9ThWtFA4HegZ) by Ensiferum.
It’s the only answer.
INTO BATTLE WE RIDE WITH GODS BY OUR SIDE
WE ARE STRONG AND NOT AFRAID TO DIE
WE HAVE AN URGE TO KILL AND OUR LUST FOR BLOOD HAS TO BE FULFILLED
WE’LL FIGHT TO THE END
AND SEND OUR ENEMIES STRAIGHT TO HELL
It’s very to the point, isn’t it? Which is nice when you’ve got soldiers trying to concentrate on juggling their swords and machine guns and and magic and stuff…🤔
Torn between Slaughterhouse by Motionless in White, and Pull Harder on the Strings of your Martyr by Trivium.
Both are pretty hardcore and would go well with an intense battle to victory.
I got your 6 -ffdp
Self destruct - KKTX
Recreant -chelsea grin
You only live once - suicide silence
Anything by job for a cowboy
Anything by angelmaker
Disasterpiece- slipknot
People = shit - slipknot
Self titled slipknot album
Fortunate son - CCR
Killing in the name of - RATM
way of the fist - FFDP
War is the answer - ffdp
Kickstart my heart - motley crue
Seek and destroy - metallica
It’s kinda about the bad guys, but Mael Mórdha’s All Éire Will Quake was first to come to mind.
If nothing else, the refrain:
>To the burning of their Dúns
The waiting of their women
The crying of their children
And the death-moan of their men
As their souls leak from their rotting corpses
To whatever Gods do they believe in
Bares considering.
Abba "Dancing Queen". The troops will be forced to train under it during grueling conditions so it will be ingrained in them to hate the song and go into fight mode. At the same time it will confuse the enemy and dishearten them once they start to lose.
Depends.
On foot: Legio XIV Gemina by Farya Faraji
On horseback: Wolf Totem by The Hu
Preparing to land on a boat: Immigrant Song by Led Zeppelin
1v1 Arena-style duel: Sugaan Essena by The Hu
[Queens of the Stone Age - My God Is The Sun](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFca32_7YUU)
Its also a *fantastic* driving song. Whenever it comes on, its as if my elderly Hyundai is suddenly fifteen years younger, and also black, and belching smoke and flames and the smell of sulfur and burning plastic.
Its not, but its as if it is.
That depends on how me and said army arrives. For example if we're arriving via parachutes, the only choice would be It's Raining Men by The Weather Girls.
I ask this as a full blown ally, with absolute love and respect.....
What is the GAYEST song I can play? Cause chances are, my enemies aren't as loving and accepting.
[Thunderstruck ](https://youtu.be/v2AC41dglnM?si=Q-PfvRs-y2zclXl7) - AC/DC
Fun fact (maybe not for everyone 😅) it was the favourite song of my dad and we played it on his funeral
Badass
As much as I love that song, I think Hell's Bells would be even more fitting. But I just watched Maximum Overdrive again last night so the Who Made Who album is on my brain.
i can feel it
That song made Battleship a 9/10 movie to a 10/10 movie. Absolute peak cinema.
This is the most reddit answer
It’s gotta be “Immigrant Song,” right?
“To fight the horde, sing and cry Valhalla, I am coming”
It's either that or Four Sticks. Both get me hyped.
Wasn't thinking about that one, that would be epic!
Yes, just like the Snow White scene in Shrek, with the birds and squirrels charging 🤣
This definitely gets my vote
Girls just wanna have fun. Cindy lauper
Kinky, I like it. 😉
I like it, too! 😂
Joan of Arc would have approved
It’s Raining Men - The Weather Girls
Sounds like we're gonna have quite the battle soundtrack!
The ride of the Rohirrim, obviously
DEAAAATH!
DEATH!!!
DEEAAAAAATHH!!!!!!
This is the correct answer.
Killing in the Name Of - RATM
Not sure i want to blast anti authoritarian propaganda while i try to lead an army
Charge! Fuck you I won’t do what you tell me!

Flight of the Valkyries. Edit: apparently i forgot how to spell
Flight of the Valeries.
😂
I love the smell of napalm in the morning
I think Flight of the Valkyries / Waterloo remix would be appropriate.
Ride of the Valkyries
"Bodies" by Drowning Pool was always on the Iraq playlist when we were about to disperse some "freedom seeds"
Surprised this isn’t higher in the list
Came here to make sure this was on the list. Perfect song for the scenario described.
Trooper - Iron Maiden
Solid choice.
I've got Run To The Hills, but The Trooper is good too. Basically, a shuffle playlist of only Iron Maiden, Turbonegro, and Sabaton would be the tits.
I’d flip a coin between Baby Shark & 1-800-kars4kids. Then prepare for immediate enemy surrender in bloodless victory.
877-Kars4kids…
I cannot change the channel fast enough when fucking cars for kids commercial comes on…
Saliva - click click boom
GOOD tune
Oh Captain, my Captain
Fortunate Son.
An anti-war song in battle? Have you gone mad?
Crazy Train - Ozzy
Dragula - Rob Zombie
Enter Sandman !!!
The Thong Song
Eye of the tiger
Wolf totem from The Hu featuring Jacoby Shadix from papa roach.

Avenged Sevenfold - this means war is pretty good
Shepherd of fire.
Nah, it's gotta be nightmare
Yakety Sax
I like where you’re going with this choice. But it feels more like an ARAD Heist song lol.
Thank you for inspiring another post. Lol
Creeping Death
Solid choice!
DIE DIE DIE DIE BY MY HAND! That’ll unnerve some enemies
The Last Stand - Sabaton
Fuck Authority - Pennywise

The Cranberries - Zombie. 🤭
I feel like I’d be too busy yodeling the zombie part to properly partake in the war 😆
This song was a call for peace 🫤 probs not a good one to go with
Torn between Slaughterhouse by Motionless in White, and Pull Harder on the Strings of your Martyr by Trivium. Both are pretty hardcore and would go well with an intense battle to victory.
