Impact On Popular Culture
There are several musical adaptations taken from the War of Wrath:
- The power metal group Blind Guardian, in their album Nightfall in Middle-Earth (based on The Silmarillion), recorded a track in which is performed a short conversation between Morgoth and Sauron at the end of the War of Wrath. The track's name is, exactly, "War of Wrath".
- The epic/gothic metal group Battlelore, a Finnish band whose every song deals with Middle-earth, in their album Sword's Song have a track entitled "The War of Wrath". The lyrics tell the tale of Morgoth's demise.
- The progressive rock band Ainur has written a song titled "War of Wrath" included in their first album From Ancient Times (2006).

That purity built up the State
And after kept it from decay;
Admonish us to cling to that
And let all base ambition be,
For intellect would make us proud....”
