How do!

Yes I’m back and bothering the background and your ear holes.

This time, I’m looking for modern(ish. Emphasis on the ish) music which you see as anthems for Imperial Forces in a given situation.

To try to set the scene and lead by dodgy example?

It’s the late 41st Millennium. After too many worlds lost to spheres of expansion, The Imperium overcomes its inherent inertia and launches an assault on an outlying but well established Sept World.

The fleet exits Warp Transit in good order, regroups accordingly and sweeps aside the T’au fleet and orbital defences. We join the action just as the mass landers begin their descent planetside, landing hot into what is about to become a very, very active war zone. Vengeance and reprisal etched into the heart of every man jack of the Guardsmen about to get their mood on.

Not one Xenos structure will be left standing. No sympathisers or collaborator will spared Imperial Justice. The world will be cleansed. The upstart T’au will learn what happens when Mere Men take up arms.

Not sure if it is within the boundaries of what you honorable sir consider modernish, but sometimes when I hear it I think of some far flung Inquisitor Degtyarev, uncovering some filthy degenerate xenos whorshipping cult in all it's sector spanning horror and getting ready to kick their arses whatever it takes.

"Hold my beer" -Inquisitor Degtyarev

We'll take modern to mean anything post 1900. Sigismund declares the Eternal Crusade:

In Fifteen Hours it’s heavily implied that Eminem’s Slim Shady song is a “classic” in the 40K universe. One of the senior guardsman explains how his great grandfather would listen to a high beat fast paced song about a bunch of slender men arising from a chair claiming to be all the same person, which, the veteran guardsman never understood the lyrics or the context of the song.
