HMKids
HMKids or Heavy Metal Kids is a Russian band which composes music from Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Fantasy themes, in other words they are lyrically made of Awesome, one can certainly say it was about time as nowaday it seems only Touhou has fanbands making songs for their hobby.
Composition and Style
HMKids music may be qualified as metal, tending toward melodic, power and symphonic subgenres, their songs often feature voices and sounds directly extracted from the Dawn of War series which may remind of the Alfa Legion Steamgroup video works, while sometimes this brings truely epic compositions (like using the Dreadnought voice for a song about it) other times it ends in the narmy territory, which is actually a good thing if you have an adquired taste for some of the most strambotic /tg/ creations.
Some of the lyrics are recounts of important events of the Warhammer universe while others describe the nature and style of some of the factions, and then they have some songs based on memetic creations such as the Angry Marines.

Lyrics
Ultramarines:
Lyrics: There is no place for fear, anguish or doubt in our hearts, on our armour the symbol of the Aquila and the dust of distant planets. In the darkest places of the universe we bear the light of the Emperor.
(Verse) Forward Ultramarines, bring holy retribution, forward Ultramarines, our battle cry is COURAGE AND HONOUR! Hordes of Chaos, orks, eldar and tyranid swarms do not afraid the sons of Ultramar, once again into the fright.
(Verse 4 times)
Iron Warriors:
Lyrics: Thunder and Lightning, fire and steel, unlimited power, and iron will.
We don't pray to Chaos, we serve to our Lord.
Loyalist scum, you die by my sword.
(Verse) We are Iron Warriors! We live to win! Iron without, Iron within! (x2)
Hammer and anvil, power and might.
We are made of metal; we live to fight!
With axe of war in iron hand, warlord and warsmith, ruler of this land
(verse x2)
