There was ~garage for a few months this year.
Kamil Orman-Janowski and the entire Path of Exile (1 and 2) soundtrack.
Here’s one of my favorites from the first game:
Act 1 boss fight music from PoE2:
Certainly tracks with a lot of the stories I've read e.g., Werner von Braun's warnings near the end of his life.
They began with the Communist threat, then the international terrorists threat, then the rogue nations threat, maybe soon the asteroid threat, and finally the extraterrestrial threat.
Dr. Carol Rosin, an aerospace executive and former spokesperson for Wernher von Braun, has been a prominent voice in sharing von Braun's alleged warnings about the use of false threats, including an alien invasion, to manipulate public opinion and justify military expansion.
According to Rosin, von Braun confided in her during the last years of his life, expressing his concerns about the misuse of space and technology for nefarious purposes.
Also just stumbled upon this paper about the topic:
The Alien False Flag: Historical Perspectives and Theoretical Implications for Government Control by Douglas C. Youvan

I always liked the various MacGuffin's in the PoTC trilogy; the compass, the Black Pearl, the Flying Dutchman, Davy Jones' heart, the kraken, the pieces of eight.
my take:
A compass points to something and is steady, but it does only one thing.
You gotta be like Jack's magic compass and follow what it is you want most, just be smart about it.
