Favorite war - themed songs

Iron Maiden-Where Eagles Dare

As for metal, I couldn't even wrap my brain around this question since it's like a good quarter of the entire genre. I'm thinking of my all-time favourite songs, and if I'm gonna pick one it's:

Annihilator - Epic of War

Edwin Starr is an absolute legend where I live! He moved from Detroit in the '70s to a village called Tutbury just outside the town I'm from, as you can see Tutbury got da funk!




So this meant that over the years I saw him a ton doing PA's at local clubs and Northern soul nights and to be honest, he was nothing short of amazing ever!

Thin Lizzy-Emerald, Massacre

Always liked this song.

That Warefare song- is outrageous ! Very old school pure !
Sounds like Venom, Motörhead and Sabbath....played by 80's teenagers !

Yeah they got a lot of hype back in the 80's, but I never got around to really checking them out. I own that Bonzai Axe tape and that's really the only song I've heard of theirs, except for a few on youtube over the years. They do have a Venom/Motorhead sound about them though.

I was gonna say Paschendale by Maiden, but someone else beat me to it. Afraid to Shoot Strangers is another of their war-themed ones that is amazing, not excluding Aces High or Where Eagles Dare of course. They like to write about war a lot, it seems, haha.

Fields of Valor by Titan Force is one of my favorite war songs, as well.


i'm sure there's a million more i'm forgetting at the moment though.

Jag Panzer's Warfare, off of Ample Destruction is awesome too.

Need to pull out some Titan Force.

94 demo is split beetween both albums issued by Sonic Age. My Winner/Loser has two tracks, as well as 90' demo. I guess thats the best option. Honsetly though, its not THAT good.

oh, hmm. i didn't know that. i think the 90 demo is the one I've heard, and it was on youtube in poor quality. i think i read about them on metal archives. thanks for the advice.
