This track plays during the battle between the [[Brutes]], [[Hunters]], and the [[Elites]] in the [[Mausoleum of the Arbiter]] at the end of level [[Gravemind (Level)|Gravemind]], though it plays with the lyrics almost muted. If you listen closely, you can hear the lyrics proving that is not an instrumental version. It will play on a loop until all enemies on both sides are dead. Interestingly, the intro of the song, with its characteristic bell chime, can also be heard during the tunnel portions of the level "[[Outskirts]]" It also can be heard on the Halo 3 level Tsavo Highway. However, the main part is played on a bass guitar for the Halo 3 rendition, so it is difficult to hear.
