Music From and Inspired by the Motion Picture End of Days is the soundtrack to Peter Hyams‘ 1999 film End of Days. It was released on November 2, 1999 via Geffen Records, and primarily contains tracks by alternative metal and industrial rock bands. It features the first song released by the “new line-up” of Guns N’ Roses, the industrial-rock “Oh My God”. During End of Days‘s editing, soundtrack songs were overlaid in scenes that are typically silent in thriller films. A sample from Spectrasonics‘ “Symphony of Voices” is heard in several scenes. The album peaked at number 16 in Canada and at number 20 in the United States.
