'N.W.O.' (New World Order) is a song by American rock band Ministry, released as the opening track and second single from their fifth studio album Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed and the Way to Suck Eggs (1992). An industrial metal song, it was co-written and co-produced by the band’s frontman Al Jourgensen and bassist Paul Barker, and is widely regarded as a protest against then-President George H. W. Bush, featuring samples from his speeches.[2] The song was nominated for a Grammy Award under the Best Metal Performance category in 1993,[3] and was featured in the soundtrack album of Ralph Bakshi’s 1992 film Cool World.[4] In 1994, the song was used in a Spin Magazine commercial which featured Jourgensen, among others.[5] In 2015, 'N.W.O.' was ranked #10 in the VH1 'Top 10 Hardest Hitting Heavy Metal Political Anthems' list.[6]
The promotional single, featuring two mixes of 'N.W.O.' and a non-album instrumental track 'Fucked', has been released around the same time with its parent album,[7] and topped out on the BillboardModern Rock chart at no. 11.[8]

Nwo Wolfpac Theme Song
The music video for “N.W.O.” was directed by Peter Christopherson. The majority of the video is a mix of police beatings, riots, and gunfights. It also includes a scene in which a woman dressed as the Statue of Liberty is beaten by police in a manner similar to the famous amateur video of Rodney King being beaten by police.[9][10] The video was featured on Beavis and Butt-Head along with another track from Psalm 69, 'Just One Fix'.
The songs were written and produced by Jimmy Hart. Only a few of these songs were actually used as the wrestler's entrance music. If you were a wrestling fan during the late '90s, you will remember the original 'nWo Theme', 'nWo Wolfpack' and 'Buff Daddy'. C-Murder Nwo Wolfpac Theme Lyrics. Nwo Wolfpac Theme lyrics performed by C-Murder: (HOWL) Wolfpac is back causin' mass destruction.
The song was featured in the video game Need for Speed: The Run.[11]
Samples[edit]
Samples from Apocalypse Now are included in this track: Dennis Hopper's character exclaiming 'It's alright!' as the patrol boat is approaching the colonel's fort, as well as the siren that was used during the scene. There is also a loop of the guitar solo coming from a transistor radio in the grenade launcher's bunker.
Footage from the music video of the Octopus is from the Japanese film Space Amoeba. Footage of the turtle is from the film franchise Gamera.
