2. Shriekback, "Nemesis," from "Oil and Gold"
http://www.cleartrails.com/shrk_l4.html#6
....

How bad it gets, you can't imagine
The burning wax, the breath of reptiles
God is not mocked, he owns our business
Karma could take us at any moment
Cover him up, I think we're finished
You know it's never been so exotic
But I don't know, my dreams are vicious
We could still end up with the great big fishes

Priests and cannibals, prehistoric animals
Everybody happy as the dead come home
Big black nemesis, parthenogenesis
No-one move a muscle as the dead come home

5. "Breathing" by Kate Bush
Breathing

Outside gets inside, Through her skin,
I've been out before
But this time it's much safer in.
Last night, in the sky,
Such a bright light.
My radar send me danger
But my instincts tell me to
Keep Breathing

CHORUS
Breathing
Breathing, my mother in,
Breathing, my beloved in,
Breathing, Breathing her nicotine, Breathing
Breathing, the fall out-in, out-in, out-in, out-in, out-in.

We've lost our chance, we're the first and last,
After the blast,
Chips of Plutonium are twinkling in every lung.
I love my beloved,
All and everywhere,
Only the fools blew it,
You and me knew life itself is Breathing.

CHORUS

What are we going to do without
Ooh, please, let me breathe,
Quick, breathe in deep,
Leave us something to breathe,
Ooh, Life is -
Breathing.


Since it's told from the fetus's perspective, "I've been out before but this time it's much safer in" gives me the goosebumps I get from the thought of the numinous eternal intersecting with the temporary and fleeting mortal world.

6. God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind) by Randy Newman
Cain slew Abel, Seth knew not why
For if the children of Israel were to multiply
Why must any of the children die?
So he asked the Lord
And the Lord said:

Man means nothing, he means less to me
Than the lowliest cactus flower
Or the humblest Yucca tree
He chases round this desert
'Cause he thinks that's where I'll be
That's why I love mankind

I recoil in horror from the foulness of thee
From the squalor and the filth and the misery
How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer me
That's why I love mankind

The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree
The Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TV
They picked their four greatest priests
And they began to speak
They said, "Lord, a plague is on the world
Lord, no man is free
The temples that we built to you
Have tumbled into the sea
Lord, if you won't take care of us
Won't you please, please let us be?"
And the Lord said
And the Lord said

I burn down your cities-how blind you must be
I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we
You all must be crazy to put your faith in me
That's why I love mankind
You really need me
That's why I love mankind

7. Discharge-Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing
the whole album

1. Hear Nothing, See Nothing, Say Nothing

Lied to threatened cheated and deceived
Hear nothing see nothing say nothing
Led up garden paths and into blind alleys
Hear nothing see nothing say nothing


2. The Nightmare Continues

And still men and women drag out their lives in misery
The nightmare continues

Blinded disfigured and mentally scarred
The nightmare continues


3. The Final Bloodbath

The smell of death is near
Its presence ever near
The final bloodbath is coming
It is just around the corner


4. Protest And Survive

The savage mutilation of the human race is set on course
Protest and survive
Protest and survive

It is up to us to change that course
Protest and survive
Protest and survive


5. I Won't Subscribe

Kept in line with rifle butts and truncheons
Beaten up behind closed doors

I won't subscribe to the system, the hands that tighten around my throat


6. Drunk With Power

For how long do we tolerate these fools drunk with power

Drunk with power, obsessed with death
Death and destruction, drunk with power

A giant game of chess they play with you and I as the disposable pieces

Drunk with power, obsessed with death
Death and destruction, drunk with power
Power, power, power, power, power


7. Meanwhile

Half the world is starving dying of disease
World military expenditure increases
Half the world is living in poverty
World military expenditure increases


8. A Hell On Earth

A glaring light an unnatural tremor
Suffocating heat, suffocating heat
A hell on earth, hell on earth

Men women and children groaning in agony
From the intolerable pains of their burns
A hell on earth, hell on earth


9. Cries Of Help

Napalm tumbles from the sky
Cries of help, cries of pain
Skin looking like bloody hardened meat
Cries of help, cries of pain


10. The Possibility Of Life's Destruction

Can you hear the sound of an enormous door slamming in the depths of hell
The possibility of life's destruction
Can you hear the cries of pain the mournful sound
The possibility of life's destruction


11. Q: And Children? A: And Children

In agony they cry and scream
And children and children
And children and children
Skin peeled hanging in strips
And children and children
And children and children


12. The Blood Runs Red

Cut down by machine gun fire
The blood runs red, the blood runs red
Hot lead rips through flesh
The blood runs red, the blood runs red


13. Free Speech For The Dumb

Free speech free speech for the dumb
Free speech free speech for the dumb


14. The End

A smouldering wilderness
Mass death and destruction
Mass death and destruction

Millions dead and dying
Mass death and destruction
Mass death and destruction

A smouldering wilderness
Mass death and destruction
Mass death and destruction

Now in darkness world stops turning
Mass death and destruction
Mass death and destruction

9. Armageddon - Prism
There was a full moon over Memphis
National Guard outside thousands wait for Elvis
Waitin' ever since he died for a miracle gonna happen
His eminence to restore
The sound of thunder crackin'
Signals the beginning of the war to end all wars

(chorus)
Armageddon carry me home
Armageddon carry me home

Jerry and Linda in the whitehouse
President sleepin' in his shoes red phones ring in the blackout
Ain't got time to lose U-boats off New England
Enemy submarines from Boston to Miami
On a red alert, you better scramble all the F-15's

11. "Brothers in Arms" by Dire Straits
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Xiqn37dV-9w&search=dire%20straits

These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Some day you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn
To be brothers in arm

Through these fields of destruction
Baptism of fire
I've watched all your suffering
As the battles raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms

There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones

Now the sun's gone to hell
And the moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line on your palm
We're fools to make war
On our brothers in arms

12. This thread is completely lacking hard core doom metal
If we're talking the apocalypse, bands like Katatonia, Bathory, Dissection, Emperor, and so on fit perfectly here!
