CMC 17:
Armageddon
"They say the world will end December 21, 2012. There have been many
theories about how this will happen, such as the eruption of a super volcano,
a giant meteor, black hole, etc. This is your story of how you think the
world will end, or if it will even happen. This is the story of your survival
or the story of your immediate destruction and the annihilation of the
human race... Will all be dead, or is there hope?"

HoboKa - "The
Cool, Cool Demise of Humanity"
"It's a dark day. Richard Simmons has taken over the world and is
systematically turning people into ass-shaking zombies of liposuctions
retardedness. Contrary to this stupid theme, I made this awesome song
to compliment it. Enjoy :D"
quia - "Songmageddon"
"It begins slow and get more intense. At one point when it's like
most intense, Armageddon occurs and the song goes back to a lonely violin.
Soon a piano joins in and makes the end sad."
Nishant Pawar - "War-torn"
"It's the end of the world due to a nuclear war and total chaos
in countries."
Blue.Nocturne - "Land
of Solitude"
"(0:00-1:00) As you awake, there is but a barren landscape with
no one around in sight.
Lost and unsure what happened, you decide to look around.
You see the remains of your past, yet you can barely recognize it now.
(1:00-1:50) Despite the odds, you try to find any hint of another human
being.
You begin running, frantically searching left, right, up, down.
(1:50-2:07) Suddenly, you located the remains of your home.
You head inside, yet to your dismay, you find nothing.
(2:07-end) Depressed and lonely, you sit down.
Try to remember what happened?
You can't seem to, and you don't know how you're the only one that survived.
Disappointed, you close your eyes, slowly falling to sleep... forever."

Spacecowgoesmoo - "Extinction"
"I tried to write this as if telling a story, but I didn't fill
in some of the specifics. I decided to let you all use your imagination
with it instead of trying to interpret program notes. The gist of it is
a grand, worldwide scale battle of Heroes XY and Z vs. Giant Sentient
Apocalyptic Meteor, so just fill in the good guy's details and the ending
as you see fit. I personally saw the instruments on Earth's side as either
anime/video game heroes or as countries in general; massive armies and
scientists trying to invent something to save them.
I treated each instrument as a different and unique individual in this
battle, so there's a storyline behind the instruments and their musical
lines; for example, the piano that starts off the melody really depressed
at the beginning is the first one to despair and give up on survival,
before any of the heroes even start the battle. A few of them will die
off by the end as well ;).
Also, the volume should start where you can hear the very first note
pretty clearly. It's 12/16 volume dots on a mac, in my case. (And good
headphones, there's a helluva lot of bass.)"
Alex Smith - "Our
Souls Will Live On"
"On the eve of 21st December 2012, a devastating virus wipes out
no less than 94% of the Earth's population. Those who survive are filled
with sadness, but must look to the future and cherish their lives."
Virtualshock - "The
Burning of Time"
"It is the future. Planet earth has been transformed into a lethal
array of machinery and factories. This piece has 3 parts:
1. The preparation for battle,
2. The robots, men, and cyborgs march to battle,
3. Every one is nuked and the earths magnetic field sets its orbit to
close to the sun, time is burning away."
Gimgak - "Total
Chaos"
"Explosions in the distance. The city panics. The streets fill,
riots form, shops and houses are trashed. For it is only in times of crisis
that the true evil of our race crawls forth from within us. But some have
hope. Some fight to stay alive and pure.
But either way they will all perish..."
