Well, I was casting about on YouTube the other day and I found a song called 'Panzerkampf' by the Swedish band Sabaton. Interested, I clicked and was rewarded with a heavy metal retelling of the Battle of Kursk.
The song was extremely good, and I followed through with a search. For those who do not already know, Sabaton has loads of songs about different wars, telling the stories through lyrics and music. Very good, and I recommend them.
Anyhow, I eventually came across the song 'Wolfpack'. It details the story of Convoy ONS-92 and the battle with the wolfpack 'Hecht' (Pike) and the attacks on 12 May 1942. Link to the song here...

Also, I recommend that, if you are interested, use Piscator's channel. He gives background on each song in the description and has almost every song on his channel.
Oh, and I'd recommend '40-1', about the Battle of Wizna, where 720 Polish troops dug and held off the 42.200 German troops of XIX Army Corps until the last man in the early days of the war.
