TBH most Raging Speedhorn would be suitable.
On more than one level, actually. The band was founded in Corby; a DF succession game would be a home away from home for them.

Never used Dwarf Therapist, mods or tilesets in all the years I've been playing.
I think Toady's confusing interface better simulates the experience of a bunch of disorganised drunken dwarves running a fort.

Black Powder Firearms - Superior firepower, realistic manufacturing and rocket launchers!

There's a whole lot of dismembering and immolation going on in my fort.

Dropkick Murphys - take em down
With dropkick Murphys you always get lyrics involving alcohol, which we all know is pretty dwarven, but this tune just has to be the best dwarf fortress anthem they ever made.
If you just choose to hear "when the (clown) bus comes callin'", it's even better.
But dwarf fortress players are known for their ☼Imagination☼, last part should not be a problem.

This is the theme song of my fortress: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bcyVYkTxVu0
It has rocks, metal, fire, Forges, Swords and lots of DOOOOOOOOM...just like a normal Fortress

This is a (rough) translation of the song

In one fort, I modded minotaurs to be tamable and made one of them mayor by chaining him in the dining hall.

The great thing about this song is you can find clips of nearly any kind scene set to it. Action, horror, or drama; this iconic song converts them all to its particular genre...

So, I chose a video wherein not just the theme, but the scene against which it is set, is appropriate for most my fortresses.

Hall of the mountain king (mentioned already) is always nice

I can't believe no one's mentioned this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ygdpo_JevY

Took me a while to think of this one, but now that I have it seems like the most obvious thing in the world.

Seriously. It's like every lyric was tailor-made for Dwarf Fortress.

I'd play it for every new migrant wave. ^.^

My goal is to one day build a fortress worthy of having this as an anthem: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ujzp9ffPwPM

I was thinking about pumping magma up his legs and having a floodgate in his crotch. What could be more dorfy than pissing magma upon your enemies?
