Warfare has provided inspiration for a catalog of songs written to express anger and despair but also of hope and reconciliation. Most anti-war songs promote peace in some form, while others sing out against specific armed conflicts. Some tracks warn of the dire consequences of going into battle, while a few serve as eye-witness accounts. All, however, are recorded as reminders of the futility of war, and just how senseless and devastating it can be.
