You may or may not have heard that the end of the world is nigh! Again!
There's been a number of lesser apocalypsies recently but the really BIG one is due to occur on December 21st of this year because some Mayans made a prophesy or somesuch a few millenias ago. This has already been debunked many times now on grounds of logic, historical reasoning and even that it wasn't really a prophesy to begin with. But that hasn't stopped hoards of panic-enthusiasts from readying themselves for our all-encompasing non-spesific doom.

I too am preparing! Just in case the world really does end (and hey! December 21st is as good as any other day for it) I'd like to go out with a bang. So I'm putting together a massive End Of The World party!

My question, ladies and gentlemen, is musical! I'd like a thematic soundtrack for our apocalypse. Something up-beat and catchy! Here's what I have so far:

R.E.M - It's the end of the world as we know it (obviously)

Johnny Cash - When the man comes around

The Aquabats - Chemical Bomb

Muse - Apocalypse please

Randy Newman - Political science

Any other suggestions? <3

need more?

Sure all you have! Though idealy something party appropriate. While I actually really like the japanese chiptune one, it might take explaination on a playlist. Trying to avoid anything really slow or metal sounding (which is a shame because there's tons of apocalypse themed stuff like that) as it's not to everyone's taste.

But I'll go for quantity over quality. I'm happy to filter them out myself later. And hey! maybe other people want to arange their own end of the world bash!
Come on guys! let's get into the unending doom spirit! :D

Smashing Pumpkins - The End Is the Beginning Is the End
Tool - Ænema
John Lennon - Imagine
Metallica - Nothing else matters
Last Millenuim - The end of the world will be secret
Frank Sinatra - My way
Pendulum - Hold your color
Europe - The final countdown
Anti-Flag - This is the end for you my friend
Queen - Another one bites the dust

Guys, none of these songs are about the end of the world :V

EDIT: okay, a bit pretencious of me. some of them are hard to call. Technically the R.E.M. song I put at the top was about the Nixon administration :V

you didn't specifically ask for songs about the eotw :P
"I'd like a thematic soundtrack for our apocalypse." <-- can be pretty much anything, as long as it's depressing...

This German song isn't specifically about the eotw, either, but it's very catchy:

Stephan Remmler - Alles hat ein Ende nur die Wurst hat zwei

Gottlieb Wendehals - Alles hat ein Ende nur die Wurst hat zwei 1987
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8PPYNxhLCU

Bonus points for also being christmas themed! (four days later!)
