Though I do not find them omnious enough for an invasion of HELL itself.

Well generally by the time I'm fighting HFS it will become a very long affair, made worse by FPS killing caveins, water flows, spike traps, prisoners quantum caged being released and finally many squads of very angry very well skilled dorfs with crowsbows, spears, swords and hammers.

Therefore it requires the most well set battle music ever

First we start out with Solenka

 If nothing else I end up listening to Toady rocking the guitar. More often I find I just don't bother to turn off soundsense music or Soma FM. (Soma is just too darned great.)

 Next time I muck up and doom the fortress though, I'll refer to some of the awesome music everyone else has brought up. Which reminds me, I just got Baldur's Gate II on GOG, so I get a free soundtrack to listen to outside of the game. Now to go kill everyone! Boo and I shall bob our heads to the dramatic beats of boss music, and revel in the righteous butt kicking of our demonic foes!

Clearly, this represents six side-by-side wheelbarrows, as indicated by the right half of the icon.  The left half indicates they are carrying babies with hats in these wheelbarrows.

Presumably, they are lining up to dump them into the baby furnaces.

Pink Floyd, Sorrow. That thing has a guitar bit at the end like 3 minutes long.

If I could animate, I'd make an animation showing the life of a dwarf fort, to that song. The way it builds up to total mayhem at the end which in my mind is like a siege and a HFS attack and maybe forgotten beast attack at the same time.

Listen. ARMOK COMMANDS IT, for it is his theme tune.

I think it's the way towns develop now. In the beginning, people move into a town. Then they start producing tables, which results in more and more tables. Soon tables represent a significant portion of the population, they start lobbying for new laws and regulations, putting people to greater and greater disadvantage...
Link for full quote. 'tis mighty funny.

Infected Mushroom - Heavyweight covers about all phases of a hellish invasion.  It's nine minutes long too, in case you're having FPS issues.

Playing a cheesemaker in an average Fortress 'round here would be. Freaking. Terrifying.

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I just like listening to the in game music when I play.

I was thinking more along the lines of this legendary champion, all clad in dented and dinged up steel plate, his blood-drenched axe slung over his back, a notch in the handle for every enemy that saw the swing of that blade as the last sight they ever saw, a battered shield strapped over his arm... and a fluffy, pink stuffed hippo hidden discretely in his breastplate.
