A Nuclear Blast

A Nuclear Blast is Fallout: Brotherhood of Steels main menu theme. The music and lyrics were written by Craig Stuart Garfinkle and his wife, Eimear Noone. A looped, instrumental rendition can be faintly heard in the promotional Vault-tec video: "A Guide to Post-nuclear Intimacy."
==Background==
Craig Stuart Garfinkle was brought on to write the song for Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel. While usually partnering with a dedicated lyricist, this would be the first time writing lyrics himself. 
Time and budgets were tight and after speaking with the games audio director, the lyrics came to him fairly quickly. Jack Segal is noted as one of his main inspirations.Blog post about A Nuclear Blast

A happy Electron, a Neutron its mate
Don't give a damn about apocalyptic fate
They'll party 'til midnight, then boom it's too late, it's a...
[Outro]
Nuclear blast!

The songs melody bears a striking resemblance to the song Atomic Cocktail by Slim Gaillard. The bass chords match one to one with the latter.
