How about “Bodies” or “Rise Up” by Drowning Pool, or “The Game” or “King of Kings” by Motorhead? Or heck, go with “The Ecstasy of Gold” by Ennio Morricone. Maybe Metallica’s “Damage, Inc”. Maybe Avenged Sevenfold’s “Hail To The King”.

Ok, I’m over 50 and even I know that some of those songs are really really old and wouldn’t pump anyone up these days. Listen to “Indestructible” by Disturbed. Now this one will PUMP-UP any WARRIOR and may even peel the paint off your walls! LOL
