Disclaimer: this thread is not an official anything other than the faction descriptions. The theme song concept is just for fun.

Given the official storylines for each of the 4 factions in HMW2, I thought it would be fun to see what theme songs you all think each faction should have.

Here is a synopsis of each of the 4 factions:

Maximals -
They have been in charge for thousands of years only to see order disintegrate before their eyes. The High Council's diplomatic ways of handling conflicts are no longer keeping the peace and now they have to organize themselves as a military power on Cybertron in order to survive.

Predacons -
Only a small political lobby on Cybertron for the better part of a thousand years, the Predacons have waited for the time when they can overthrow the Maximal High Council and take over Cybertron. The recent activities of the Decepticons have opened up the opportunities they have been waiting for.

Decepticons -
Since the dawn of the second Golden Age of Cybertron, the Decepticons have been reduced to nothing more than criminal activities. They are mainly viewed as a criminal organization on Cybertron but in truth they still have as much military strength as the Maximals. Being influenced by unknown outside forces, the Decepticons have come out of the shadows and are attempting to re-establish the Empire.

Autobots -
For hundreds of years the Transformers true to the ancient Autobot faction have been well known throughout the stars. They have travelled far as explorers, protectors and peacemakers. Since hearing of all the brewing conflict on Cybertron, The Autobots spread throughout the galaxy along with the few still on Cybertron have been rallied by an ancient leader to defend the homeworld from impending doom.


Ok....Here are my thoughts for theme songs:

Maximals = Fall to Pieces by Velvet Revolver
Predacons = Bodies by Drowning Pool
Decepticons = Back in Black by AC/DC
Autobots = Hero by Nickelback

Gods of War by Def Leppard could work for the Autobots.

Feelin' like it's all over
Feelin' like there's no love
Feelin' like it's not easy
Breathin' life in the dust
On a countdown to zero
Take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't gonna be heroes
There ain't gonna be anything

Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night
When we all fall down

When we walk into silence
When we shadow the sun
When we surrender to violence
Then the damage is done
Put away that gun

I don't wanna be there
I don't wanna be anywhere

Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night
That's right

We're fightin' for the gods of war
But what the hell we fightin' for
We're fightin' with the gods of war
But I'm a rebel
And I ain't gonna fight no more
No way

On a countdown to zero
Take a ride on the nightmare machine
There ain't gonna be heroes
There ain't gonna be anything

Here it comes, here comes the night
Here it comes, hell in the night
Here it comes, here comes the night
Don't ya know that's right

We're fightin' for the gods of war
But what the hell we fightin' for
We're fightin' with the gods of war
And I ain't gonna fight no more
Stop fightin' for the gods of war
Yeah what the hell we fightin' for
What in the hell we fightin' for
We're fightin' with the gods of war
Heavy

Hi.

I've never heard of any of those.

Maximals: Faith No More - "Everything's Ruined"
Predacons: The Smiths - "Please, Please, Please Let Me Get What I Want"
Decepticons: Ladytron - "Evil"
Autobots: Tomahawk - "Jockstrap"

Gods of War and autobots... In your dream, Evo.

I think Alice Cooper's Poison would be better for Preds.

Maximals or Predacons--Welcome to the Jungle by Guns 'n Roses
Decepticons--Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap by AC/DC or Renegade by Styx
Autobots--Dream On by Aerosmith or We Are the Champions by Queen

And JP's personal theme song will now be Dude Looks Like a Lady by Aerosmith
I'm sorry, but I had to put that one in lol

Metallica 'Don't Tread on Me'

"Liberty or death, what we so proudly hail
Once you provoke her, rattling of her tail
Never begins it, never, but once engaged...
Never surrenders, showing the fangs of rage"

"So be it
Threaten no more
To secure peace is to prepare for war
So be it
Settle the score
Touch me again for the words that youll hear evermore...

Dont tread on me"
