Music Question

I am looking for songs, hard rock-metal, that include Bagpipes or Bells.
Example: Hells Bells by ACDC
For Whom The Bell Tolls by Metallica
Shutes and Ladders by Korn
I know that ACDC also had a tune that included bagpipes but I can't remember what it was.
That's the kind of stuff I am looking for.

Two words: Dropkick Murphys. Look that band up. They are a punk band from Boston with a very Scottish influence which includes the bagpipe stylings of Spicy McHaggis. Two of their best songs are The Boys on the Docks and Barroom Heroes. You can't find a much better rock band with bagpipes in it than this.

The Dropkick Murphys - Amazing Grace
Buck 'o Nine - Irish Drinking Song (I think it has some, I forget - might be along the lines of what you want anyway)
Flogging Molly - Drunken Lullabies
Try those.. if I think of anymore I'll add them.
Bah, Davel stole my thunder.

While not the same style of music (ie, no bagpipes), Therion puts out some really interesting stuff. While classified as "Death Metal" its more of a cross between Opera and Hard Rock...

Their flash interface sucks ass (I hate people who can't make text buttons properly) so here's a direct link to the album I have:

Has lyrics, music samples and the background on the album...

If you're just looking for specific instances, the beginning (00:50-01:19) of Morbid Angel's "Hatework" has a pretty good bells part.
I doubt you'd like the rest of the song, however

Riiiiight.
Bad Religion.
The Ramones.
Goldfinger.
Flogging Molly.
Those are just four bands off the top of my head that are 200% more musical than half the shit they play on the radio.

AC/DC song is either "It's a Long Way to the Top" or "Highway to Hell" can't remember.
Considering a lot of punk has it's roots in musical dissonance, yeah, if all you can handle is catchy 4/4 time and Enya like voices, you're not going to like punk.

Smashing Pumpkins had a song with bells, only song of theirs that I like, name slips me though.

Smashing Pumpkins have a good track on some bonus CD of theirs I think it's called "The Aeroplane Flies High" it's pretty excellent.

Disarm
Also, Pink Floyd's song "Division Bell" off their last CD has some decent bell tones in it.
EDIT:: Neither of the 2 mentioned above is hard rock. Both are quite calm and soothing actually.
