I doubt if you have heard of this before, and no, it's not Hell March 4.

Obviously, this song is probably the answer to Frank Klepacki's Hell March 3 (released as DoD album, October 2008; to the Internet as a free download, November 2008 ) by arranger and performer (Tony Dickinson) who made the best remake Hell March song with significant new novelty I have ever heard. The song also combines the versions of HM1, HM1 remix and HM2. IMO, the song is 3 times better than Hell March 3 due to its orchestral usage and better rocky music, but still HM1 is better than this combined remake of the theme. Length of this song is better than anticipated: 5:37.

The song name was titled.... "Hell March to the Apocalypse" as a sequel theme to RA2. Hopefully soon, this will be the song to be put in one of my RA3 mods as a permanent replacement to Hell March 3. Why? Because it's the best HM remake ever heard from all HM songs so far. At least it's HM1 remake with the orchestra, whereas HM3 is a HM2 remake with the orchestra.

Here is the last edited and extended version of HM to the Apocalypse:

I added the march chants and some music parts from HM1 FFTL remake. I also edited this song on the beginning and ending parts.

Its definitly better sounding and better paced than HM3. I enjoy it

We already know about this.

Ugh... Parts of it I like, but I think it's on par with HM3.

its uh.................different

too much orchestra TBH

It's also missing the 'Die Waffen - legt an!'

lets save it for RA4.

I like it, but not any more than HM3. Though I like some orchestra, I think there was a little too much early on.

Updated the first post with a new download update.

Maybe it's time for me to surprise both Apoc and Frank Klepacki to see what they think about this song.

From what I thought about this music, it sounded better than HM3 and HM1 FFTL combined. Thus, this music score would have been the best in RA3 if EALA makes this song official.

Also the title of this song may or may not be referred to Apoc, since the usage of the word Apocalypse in a HM song puzzles me.

Heh, as i said, save the song for RA4!!!

Let's not, as I am already suggesting Frank Klepacki to compose a HM song better than this in the future when RA4 is announced.

Maybe we should tell EALA to make this song official to RA3 in a future RA3 patch.

I'm still curious about that bit of a Hell March that plays at the end of the campaigns. I think the name of the full song is Hell-Tech from RA3: Future-Shock...

To the OP, thanks for this. I havent heard this as of now.

Awful. The orchestra did not fit the main melody really well, and generally sounded like a cheap knock-off cover (Which it was). Reminds me of SnM by Metallica, except that SnM worked, but this did not at all.

It appears we have an article about this song: http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR01884/

Since we don't have enough opinions about this cover them, the guys commented there seemed interested in the song as well as myself. Even the main artist to this song speaks out my thread!!
