It’s The End Of The World As We Know It – R.E.M
A silly end-of-the-world anthem that will put a smile on your face, just when you need it most.
Aerials – System Of A Down
We don’t know how the world ended yet. Maybe it actually won’t be zombies? If it were aliens, this would be the perfect anthem.
Shame – Wu-Tang Clan
This is for when you need to use a baseball bat to can-open some brains. Undead bashin’ time!
What’s This? – Nightmare Before Christmas Soundtrack
Perhaps this song, where Jack sings about everything being brand new and covered in white (ash in our world) would be the perfect song to spin how you look at your new situation.

Alright, we are taking a step back for this track. A late night song to listen to when you need to reflect and shed some tears.

Lost Cause – Beck
Listen, we might be in over our heads here. We may be doomed, depending on scenario, and we need an incredibly depressing song playing to remind ourselves that our mission may be pointless and futile. This song will do that.
Passenger – Deftones

Listen, the moment will arise when you surely need to stomp on some skulls, Ed Norton style. And when those moments do arise, you want to ensure you have the best song to listen to that will help maximize your damage output. This IS that song.
