Music Samples
Samples of Ermey from Full Metal Jacket are used in several albums:
- Fear Factory's album Soul of a New Machine on the track "Suffer Age".
- Ministry's album The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste, on the track "Thieves". The sound-alike voice credited as "Sgt. Major" on the same band's Rio Grande Blood is not Ermey, but is actually Ermey's own drill instructor from Parris Island.
- Front Line Assembly's track "Millennium"
- Grendel's track "Soilbleed V.3"
- Combichrist's track "This Is My Rifle"
- Modulate's track "Skullfuck"
- Killarmy's track "War Face"
- Terre Thaemlitz's release "Soil", on the track "Yer Ass is Grass"
- Hoobastank track "Born to Lead"
- Quotes of Ermey saying, "Now go home and snuff that bitch!" "Here you are all equally worthless." "Get on your knees, scumbag!" "Who's the slimy little communist shit, twinkle-toed cocksucker down here who just signed his own death warrant?" and others appear on multiple songs by the band Killwhitneydead.
- Samples of the line "Here you are all equally worthless" from Full Metal Jacket are repeated throughout the song "Never Get Caught" by American Head Charge.
- Zac Brown Band's "Chicken Fried", a cut from Full Metal Jacket of him calling cadence for some COD (Close Order Drill) is heard just before the intro.

Famous quotes containing the words music and/or samples:
“I’ve come close to matching the feeling of that night in 1944 in music, when I first heard Diz and Bird, but I’ve never got there.... I’m always looking for it, listening and feeling for it, though, trying to always feel it in and through the music I play every day.”
—Miles Davis (1926–1991)
“Good government cannot be found on the bargain-counter. We have seen samples of bargain-counter government in the past when low tax rates were secured by increasing the bonded debt for current expenses or refusing to keep our institutions up to the standard in repairs, extensions, equipment, and accommodations. I refuse, and the Republican Party refuses, to endorse that method of sham and shoddy economy.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
