300px Earth City is a music track featured in Halo 2, and is track seventeen of Volume 1 of the Halo 2 Soundtrack.
The song combines deep strings with a piano rhythm to create an imposing, suspense filled piece. Towards the end, a higher string set creates a building crescendo, accompanied by a vocal set reminiscent of the one at the end of The Last Spartan.
Though its' title suggests its association with New Mombasa, the 'Earth City', it is frequently played as the theme of the Covenant's Scarab walker. It is first played when the Pelicans launched from In Amber Clad encounter the Scarab in the cinematic before Outskirts. It is later played in Metropolis when the Master Chief encounters Wraiths outside a Marine Command Post, just before the Scarab arrives there. Shortly afterwards, it is again played as the Prophet of Regret's carrier prepares to make a Slipstream Space jump, while the In Amber Clad attempts to intercept it.
