For The Giant remix, see Beauty of Annihilation (Giant Remix).

Beauty of Annihilation is the seventh track in the Call of Duty: Black Ops - Zombies Soundtrack.

It is the death song in Shi No Numa, and is the musical Easter Egg for the zombie map Der Riese. A clip of it plays at the end of each Hellhound, Pentagon Thief, Space Monkey, or Jumping Jack round. When the player holds down the use button (or Knife in the IOS version) in front of three jars containing green liquid and spinal cords attached to brains (one in the small room near Teleporter B and two in the hall outside Teleporter A), this song will start to play.

The song was written by Kevin Sherwood and performed by Elena Siegman.

The song can also be played at the menu or in the Safe House using the Music Player in Call of Duty: Black Ops III.

Brain Locations[]

  • First - Located in the room that leads to the Juggernog, near where the M1897 Trench Gun can be bought. It's on the table.
  • Second - Located opposite the first, on the highest shelf of a giant rack.
  • Third - Located in the small room next to the room where the Type 100 can be bought. It is on the table next to the chalkboard with the Stielhandgranate outline.

Lyrics[]

(Bold represents shouting, while italics represent the normal voice.)
Yticorpicer fo yaw yb emoc, seiticorta ym ll-a-a-a. All my atrocities,
come by way of reciprocity,
I'm chewing the bones of my own reprieve.

Death be my dignity,
execute hemlock philosophy,
Poison fills the cup of the carpenter.

NO!
Love lost on me,
MORE!
Life so costly.

No reason,
for grieving.

No,
LOVE LOST ON ME!
More,
LIFE SO COSTLY!

Bring me down
WITH 7.62 HIGH VELOCITY!

I can see them everywhere,
they're all around me,
they're waiting for me.

Descending,
unrelenting,

Beauty of Annihilation.

Your curiosity,
feeding off my animosity,
and the reason,
is treason.

DOWN WITH ALL THAT'S GOOD AND CLEAN!
YOU CAN'T FUCKING ANNIHILATE ME!

Bring you down
WITH 7.92 AND NO IMPUNITY!

I can see them everywhere,
they're all around me,
they're waiting for me.

Descending,
unrelenting,

Beauty of Annihilation.

Death so beautiful,
looks so beautiful,
death so beautiful,
looks so beautiful to me.

I can see them everywhere

I can see them everywhere I go.

I can see them everywhere,
they're all around me,
they're waiting for me.

I can see them everywhere (death so beautiful),

I can see them everywhere I go,

I can see them everywhere,
they're all around me,
they're waiting for me.

Descending,
unrelenting,

Beauty of Annihilation,
looks like your prophet was mistaken.

Is life really gone or just been wasted?

Doom so close that I can taste it!

Trivia[]

  • The original iTunes listing of this song incorrectly spells Annihilation 'Annihalation' and Beauty 'Beaty'. However, that listing is no longer available, and the new listing has the name spelled correctly. However, it is still spelled incorrectly in the "music" application.
  • In Call of Duty: Black Ops, the song finishes a few seconds earlier than it's supposed to.
