I think that "Hourglass" by lamb of god would make a great addition to The Road soundtrack because well, this bassically describes the story. It is either the strangest coincidence or they based their story off each other or something but, the lyrics are perfect for any scene where the man is coughing or they are looking out at the burnt landscape. The entire song is about the appocalypse comming and how its too late to turn back. First, the song says "Each dawn another curse, every breath a twisting blade" that would correspond directly to the man and his coughing fits that lead to bleading. The song would be well placed when the author writes "Slogging to the edge of the road with his back to the child where he stood bent with his hand on his knees, coughing...". The ending of the song where the artist sings "The ashes of the wake, it's only getting worse" would be good with like a pan view of them looking at the destroyed and ash country. I could go on about how well the lyrics fit in but these are two prettey good examples of why "Hourglass" by Lamb of God.

I agree this song would be a great song for the soundtrack. Redneck is also a great song choice also.
