Pop-culture references

Conan has insinuated his way into popular culture.

Music

 * Italian metal band Domine's song "The Aquilonia Suite Pt. 1" from their Emperor of the Black Runes album is based on the story told in Conan the Barbarian. The song is primarily an original composition, but parts of Basil Poledouris's film score are woven into the song as well. Since the song is titled "Pt. 1", the band presumably plans to continue the Conan story on a later album.
 * Stoner rock band Electric Wizard feature Conan in their song "Barbarian" from their Dopethrone album.
 * Lyrics at LyricWiki.
