“Jump Around” -House of Pain, an Irish-style hip-hop group in the early '90s. (Does that count, even though it’s not quite “rock”?)

That high pitched noise, while probably possible with bag pipes is actually a piccolo trumpet hit. I think they show a piper in the video, but the majority of that whole song is sampled from the song “Harlem Shuffle” by Bob and Earl.

I think there’s a short sample of pipes that’s constantly repeated as a backing track. It’s not the high-pitched part, but the drone underneath everything. I’ll admit that my first reaction was to think “WTF is she thinking?” when Guin posted that (because I didn’t remember any bagpipes in it when it first came out), but after listening to it a couple of times, I think she’s right.

I think Pink Floyd’s “Chapter 24” from Piper at the Gates of Dawn has bagpipes, but when I advanced-google “bagpipes” + “pink floyd” + “chapter 24” I get a zillion hits not one of which seems to contain the word “bagpipes” (go figure).

So no confirmation. Could by synthy stuff that just sounds like bagpipes.

I hate to be the constant party pooper, but no, no bagpipes here. Definitely.

At least one track on Blackout in the Red Room by Love/Hate has bagpipes on if I recall correctly. Although it has been a while since I listened to it.
