Re: National Anthems/ or bands
For the Marignish Inquisition: Running Wild's "Dragonmen" or "Genesis".
For R'lyeh, the perfect anthem would be Garden Of Delight's "Realm Of Chaos"... (with such classic lines like: "Cthulhu beckons me... he beckons me... I can't dream at night alone...") Iä! Iä! Too bad noone but me ever seemed to have heared of them.
Machaka: Since most europeans can't distinguish african and indian music anyway, just get the Spiritchaser from Dead Can Dance and play through it.
I like Bathory for Vanheim and Metallica's One for Ulm.
Ermor: Sisters Of Mercy's Temple Of Love. No, really. Listen to it while playing Soulgate or Ashen Empire.
-- edit: Shameful misspelling of a favourite band of mine...

Re: National Anthems/ or bands
I tend to listen to albums/bands rather than particular songs - a few seemed appropriate:
C'tis - Thy Serpent/'Swampsong' by Kalmah
Mictlan - 'Blood Ritual' or 'Ceremony of Opposites' by Samael (Lord Belial or Belphegor works here as well)
Ermor - 'Cause of Death' by Obituary
Marignon - Cathedral (Anathema might work)
Abysia - In Flames
Jotunheim - They Might be Giants !!!???
Caelum - 'Blizzard Beasts' by Immortal
Pangaea/Man - Pantheist/'Forest Poetry' by Ildjarn/Carpathian Forest/In the Woods

Re: National Anthems/ or bands
I'd say the perfect band for R'lyeh is
obvious: the 60's group "H.P Lovecraft".
And yes, it is named after the author.

Re: National Anthems/ or bands
Mmh. I constantly switch through my CD's while playing different nations. Holst' Planets went with Pythyium, and it's a nigood fit. Apocalyptica, goes with just about every battle, but I like'em especially with ermor or abysia.
Therion's ... darn forget the name,latest album goes very well with Ulm (Schwarzalbenheims Gewürm ...)or Hoburg Alliance.
"Sign of the Hammer" album by Manowar goes very well with Jotunheim, Though my favorit for them is definately Finntroll!
With pangea I went with Loreena Mckennitt and Blind Guardian.
Man is also Blind Guardian or Avantasia
Arcos ... In Extremo or Corvus Corax
But to any faction I hear a lot of movie soundtracks like LotR, The Crow, 13th Warrior, Gladiator, Henry V, Conan or Warlock (I)just to name a few.

Yep, Finntroll is just right for Jotunheim, I'm not sure why though...

Re: National Anthems/ or bands
There're surprisingly many mentions of various metal bands here. Is it that people associate Dominions with metal music or is it that dominions players only listen to metal?

Re: National Anthems/ or bands
It would apear that Metal is the preferred sound of Dom2 players. I also like that you can change the audio settings to play metal during the battle sequences.

Re: National Anthems/ or bands
Well, half the Dominions II players are hardcore wargamers, while the other half are crazed fantasy freaks. Most fantasy freaks I know (at least the males) sooner or later make one contact or another with Metal.
I am more in line with Dark Wave, but that's probably my personal preference of dark fantasy things. Ah well. With this little demographic european insight, back to the topic.

Re: National Anthems/ or bands
I'm way behind on the heavy metal knowledge - the only one I can think of is Wheels Of Steel by Saxon, for Iron Faith Ulm.
Enya is a good suggestion - maybe a Clannad album for LoT?
