ok, so you got your sword and shield ready, your plate mail suit is shiny like a mirror, and you're almost ready to go to battle! only problem is, what song should you play for the adrenaline to rush to your head and turn you from bored to supercharged?

my choices are:
-ensiferum-battle song(the intro works all the time )
-manowar-battle hymn(likewise, can't believe how epic a single clean guitar can sound here, this could very well have been on the soundtrack for 300)
-survivor-eye of the tiger(my "gym-song" lol)
-manowar-call to arms(makes me wanna grab a long shiny sword and fight the anti-metal horde)

I don't like the average battle song... Since power, viking or folk was never my favorite genre.

I take Acid Bath, the album When the Kite String Pops. Yeah, maybe Sludge Doom Metal doesn't seem like a battle genre. But I think about a huge fight right on the street. Everyone drunk and pissed off... Now that's a fucking battle.

The perfect soundtrack while you're drunk and stonned and want to beat the shit out of someone with a crowbar

"Where Black Birds Cry" by Amon Amarth is just about battle. its nice. and if i would Sweden's King i chose this song as Swed's anthem .. this song makes my epic soul stronger.

Hell yea! When it starts out going "CHARGE YOUR HORSES ACCROSS THE FIELD! TOGETHER WE RIDE INTO DESTINY!" That gives me a spine chill!

fuck yeah! the first verse is so fucking kickass

RAISE YOUR SWORDS UP HIGH
HEAR THE BLACK BIRDS CRY

You understand Norwegian lyrics or just by your feeling they are fit to be a battle song?

ive read the myth that Windir's lyrics are based on and from that information, i gathered that most of their music is about war and battle and valor and all the good stuff that goes with it, so i think Windir is appropriate KRIEG music hahaha.

Windir lyric is romantic heroism and also self-exaltation and also some mettle for battle. Then I think your choice is not so wrong.

Other song with both lyric and music is very battle, could be: Battle Song of Ensiferum, and also from them Into Battle.

Guys, there are two grand battles left untouched from the Iliad The screams of both Achilles and Hector must have been something quite close to those heroic and yet mighty ones of Eric Adams

And tell me if Rauniolla of Moonsorrow is...already forgotten as well?

Anything from five finger death punch, "wait and bleed" and opium of the people from slipknot is a must, gunshot to the head of tarabithia from trivium, and the soundtrack from the movie Death Race should do it.

Early Kreator does it for me! It's not about swords and shields all the time, but their cover of Ravens "Lambs To The Slaughter" is a real battlehymn: yeah, it's time to fight back!
Also "The Pestilence", "Flag Of Hate", and "Riot Of Violence" do the trick.
Metallica's "Seek and Destroy" is also very supercharging.

Amon Amarth - Free Will Sacrifice

The lyrics speak for themselves:

"?Here they come so raise the shields high
Like wolves they show their teeth
None of us will ever yield now
To the scavengers beneath

We're outnumbered ten to one here
Still I love the odds
We will sacrifice them one by one
Send them off to the gods?"

When I hear this song, I envision a scenario like in the movie 300.
