A couple of these were more for personal reasons than anything else, but I did get a few suggestions from you guys that I really liked.

1. Phil Collins - In The Air Tonight
2. A Perfect Circle - Judith, Renholder Mix
3. Reel Big Fish - It's the End of the World as We Know It (Yay for the bouncy pop apocalypse! Okay, so maybe this is a little too poppy, but ... uh, bite me.)
4. Dave Matthews Band - When the World Ends (I wanted the slower version that was at the end of Reloaded and ended up getting the jazzier version, which it turns out I like better. I like my apocalypses peppy.)
5. Aimee Allen - I'd Start a Revolution (Okay, so it's not about the end of the world. But it makes me think post-apocalyptic, so it stays.)
6. Johnny Cash - When the Man Comes Around (After seeing "Dawn of the Dead", with this set to the credits, how could I *not* put this on the album?)
7. Gerard McMann - Cry Little Sister (Shut up.)
8. 30 Seconds to Mars - Welcome to the Universe
9. Muse - Apocalypse Please
10. Lounge Against the Machine - Down With the Sickness (Well, come on! It was there! I had to use it.)
11. Toad the Wet Sprocket - Fall Down
12. Cibo Matto - King of Silence
13. Evanscence - Imaginary (Again, shut up. I like this song bunches and bunches.)
14. Johnette Napolitano - Suicide Note
15. Renholder - Death Dealer's Descent - Underworld Soundtrack (It's short, but I liked it.)
16. Dashboard Prophets - Ballad for Dead Friends
17. Jump Little Children - Close Your Eyes (I don't know. This is apparently where the apocalypse gets depressing.)
18. Saint Saens - Danse Macabre (I like the orchestral version better, but I was thinking about it yesterday and the piano version sounds lonelier.

EDIT: Volume 2 needs Pennywise's "Fight Till You Die". I can't believe I didn't put any punk on the first CD, and this one so counts.

EDIT: OMG, Chumbawumba did a updated-for-Iraq version of the Fixin' to Die Rag. *mind boggles* (Did I mention that they play kazoos?! It's sick that I think I love this song, really. Because of the kazoos and all.)

If you want a little more classical, try "Dies Irae" from Benjamin Britten's "War Requiem." It's like "O Fortuna" from "Carmina Burana" only not as overused.
