My Own Musical Opinion

I think this song just fits the tone perfectly for the Dauntless attack on the Abnegation compound.  Not only does the title, which is what initially grabbed my eye, a no-brainer fit, but the tones fit.  The heavy percussion evokes two ideas: rhythmic marching caused by the serum, and shots being fired.  The discordant strings played throughout capture the chaos the scene quickly devolved into.  As the song grows to a crescendo, Tris and Four break away from the crowd, fighting their faction-mates, as the gong chimes in the background.  It grows to a complete fervor, and then...silence as Tris finds sanctuary with her mother.
