Normally I probably wouldn't this here since there don't seem to be many Armored Core fans around, but I had a question about it.
So first off, this is a fairly awesome (to me anyway 
) music video someone made using the CG footage from the various games in the Armored Core series. The music (insturmental rock thing) is by Chimaira, and it all combines to create awesomeness, particularly around 2:50 and onward (the stuff from AC3 and Last Raven fits particularly well with the music).

spiffy spiffy.
And that brings me to my question: I know it says the music is by Chimaira, but does anyone know the name of this song, and where I might be able to find a legal download for it that doesn't involve iTunes? The track is pretty nice, and I'd like to have a better quality version of it to listen to.
EDIT: Ah. Partly answered my own question, turns out the song title is in fact Implements of Destruction. I thought that was just the video title.
As for obtaining it, does anyone who already has iTunes installed happen to know if this song (Implements of Destruction by Chimaira) is available there? Since I don't know where else to look, I'm considering breaking down and installing iTunes just long enough to get this track, but I'd prefer to not waste my time installing it if it isn't even there.
The song is available on Itunes.
Zero, If you don't want to buy it, I'd gladly download it, Burn it to a CD and then email you an MP3 ripped from that CD. I love how Apple and the others spend all this money making protected formats only to include CD burners with their products >>
So yeah, If you want to do something like that, let me know and we can work it out.
Or you can just use Torrents.

I just installed iTunes to go ahead and get it from there, but as it turns out, they say that one is "Album Only". 
All the other tracks are available singly, but that one requires you to get the whole album (which I certainly don't want). Dang. >_<
Fortunately for me I refused to install iTunes on my system normally, and instead stuck it in a Virtual PC where it can't touch anything else. 
So no harm done to my system at least.

Thanks a ton for the offer, but I wouldn't mind buying it if I could find a place to buy it from. Since iTunes doesn't seem to have it available as a single track download, I'm considering just being shameful and trying to find it using the route Wonderbat suggested. >_> But definitely thanks again!
And I'm also still open to suggestions if anyone knows of another place to buy it from, since I'd still like buy it legally if I can (short of buying the whole CD).
One random thing about this track, I find it somewhat amusing that all the samples I've heard seem to be from the first minute or so of the track. If someone were to buy it based on that they'd be in for a bit of a surprise, since things change radically after a 1:20 or so. (soft acoustic to heavy electric guitars and stuff) Also didn't realize that it's full length is 13:30 (the video cuts off just under 10:00). Maybe that's why iTunes won't let me get it by itself, they want me to pay more than $0.99 for it.
