    Knights of Cydonia by Muse makes me imagine two identical robot knights on robot horses that only differ in color doing battle with lasers in space. And for some reason, it's in the animation/art style of Kurzgesagt.

    Then the one hundred eighty-nine

    In the service of heaven

    They're protecting the holy line

    It was 1527

    Gave their lives on the steps to heaven

    Thy will be done!

    -Sabaton, The Last Stand

    The fact that nobody said immigrant song by Led Zeppelin shows that society is already doomed.

    The Sword - How Heavy This Axe

    Maybe more barbarian than knight, but any excuse to share The Sword is one I’ll take.

    Interesting that you guys associate guitar solos with feeling like a knight. For me, it's brass and choirs and such.

    Something like this, for example: https://www.jamendo.com/track/1244744/swords-of-fire
    The bass trombone sizzling throughout that song apparently got developed in the late 16th century, so technically not even that is anachronistic. 🙃

    I've never thought whether it's the power chords or the drums. One of my pump up songs is a capella so it can't be guitars.

    I'm doing this for revenge
    I'm doing this to try to stay true
    I'm doing this for the ones they left to twist in the wind
    I'm doing this for you

    That's amazing. Recommend any other songs of theirs?

    Always hits hard when I’m backing out of my driveway at 4am.

    A minute and 34 seconds into Imperials by Ratatat was always the one for me. There's a bunch of the ones, but this one came to mind first.

    The whole Back to Black is sad, but there is a 2 second guitar riff that makes it extra sad for me, so I do this even if it did hit me the way I expected it to.
