Default National Anthems/ or bands

I was playing around with this idea about having a National Anthem for each nation or at least a national band and here's what I've come up with so far:

As far as Anthems go I only found one that really fits it's an obvious one for R'lyeh is The Thing That Should Not Be by Metallica.

For national bands I came up with these:

Ermor - Megadeth
Jotunheim - They Might Be Giants
Atlantis - God Lives Underwater
Pangaea - Deep Forest

Let's see what else we can come up with!

Cute thread if we can keep people from just putting their Favorites. Something where the band name fits, and they arent TOO unknown. Hmmmm....

Something "heavy metal" for Ulm?
Armored Saint? Metallica? Armor of God?

Cthulhu Dawn by Cradle of Filth suits R'lyeh far better.

In The Raven-Haunted Forests Of Darkenhold, Where Shadows Reign And The Hues Of Sunlight Never Dance by Bal-Sagoth is perfect for Carrion Woods Pangaea.

Blind Guardian's Another Holy War for Marignon.

Fukai Mori by Do As Infinity would be a perfect anthem for the regular Pangaea or even Man.

Well, I'd prefer the Primus Version of the Thing that Should Not Be - they are still making worthwhile music

And:
Pan Carrion Woods - Return of the Giant Hogweed
Pan other - Bulls on Parade
Ermor undead Versions - Children of the Grave (especially with a Lich Queen)
Pythium SC or Ctis - Baby Snakes

Uh, Vynd, a great many Dom2 players weren't born when most of your suggestions were released - so its hardly fair to chastise them for failing to make them on their own
