So if Fortunate Son is the theme of Vietnam War films, what is the theme for Iraq War films?

the 2000s just fucking sucked
that decade didn't have anywhere near enough of an identity or anything like that to have something like a "theme song". it just fucking sucked, and sucking was the closest thing to an identity it had.

I think Hammett just stopped caring when they didn't let him solo on St. Anger. All his DM solos are just incomprehensible wah nonsense
>>68940908
That'd be four horsemen
>>68940713
this i agree

The one they added or the one Mustaine wrote
should be a noted distention between 90s wars and 00s wars
> 90s is based zimmer black hawk down

00s iraq and afghanistan is probably shit nu-metal

It sums up the sentiment of the youth during that time

Asking what the theme of the Iraq War is like asking what the Gulf War theme is.
I would imagine it to be stuff from Disturbed and Drowning Pool but maybe that's too obvious

While Vietnam had a far bigger impact on public conscience than both, the whole war on terror is a totally different ball game to the gulf war. A conflict that last a year and achieves a goal vs a seemingly endless occupation with constant stories of soldiers crippled and killed by bombs and ambushes, and Iraqis hating their presence.

>Actually I was talking about 9/11's impact on the military
Your statements do not match up
>>68941622
It's American Idiot, because just like Fortunate Son it reflects the thoughts of the pubescent and young adult listeners
>>68940783
the songs were made for vietnam because of widespread revolt against the war, thats why theres SO MANY vietnam protest songs
nobody cared about iraq
>>68941652
are you retarded? this has nothing to do with muh age
the music fits the time/theme of the soldiers of that era. it's not about my tastes
it ain't me and CCR perfectly fit vietnam because of the counter-culture era
hans zimmer or something similar with guitars fits the 90s
the wars after 9/11 were for the wrong reasons and the surge the military got in recruitment were reactionaries who never would've joined to begin with if it weren't for muh twin towers. which is why something hollow and fake like nu-metal or similar is perfect.
>>68941738
this anon gets it
the music should reflect themes of an era in history, fortunate son might be the greatest protest song of them all. it's truly perfect
Consensus seems to be either Jesus Walks or American Idiot. Which will it be?

Implying that isn't the best thing to happen to music in decades. For once, nobody was defined by any one artist or band. You ask fifty people the best bands of the '60s - '90s, you'll probably get the same 10 bands for each decade. The '00s didn't have that. There's a million outlets for interest and taste, so nobody has to be defined by any one or two radio bands anymore. People who want a rock hero or whatever are le wrong generationers who want somebody to dictate their taste for them.

It's the same war, you idiot. USA setting up its own puppet regimes and coming back to pull in the reins when it starts to get any ideas. It never ends.

Re-purposing classic 80s ska to something you can torture Guantanamo inmates with.
Not long now till we are all dust.
AC/DC, Disturbed, and Metallica were the most common themes amongst soldiers being deployed at the time.

>Song: American idiot

Those two things are what I most strongly associate with the Bush era and its 'texture'.

Such shit taste. Now they probably listen to avenged sevenfold and metal core as well. No wonder the entire situation turned into a never ending quagmire with boots like that on the ground.

This whole album is tied up with the Iraq War really.
