In Adventures In The Rifle Brigade, The Piper uses, well, pipes made of human skin (including faces), producing a sound that causes ears and eyes to bleed.

Fairy Tail's soundtrack aims for mix of celtic/folk mixed with heavy metal, and as such bagpipes are featured in several tracks, including the main theme.

It's also obvious during the ending as they're one of the last instruments to fade out.

A strange place to find them, but when the chorus and the musical bridge of the ED of Ragnarok: The Animation, Alive plays, you can hear bagpipes as an accompaniment.

When Scotland finally shows up in the manga, one of his pictures is him annoying England by playing the bagpipe. Technically, they're Scottish, but Iggy apparently represents the whole UK at World Meetings, and Scotland has only ever been alluded to back then.

Hetalia: Axis Powers: England/The UK's versions of Marukaite Chikyuu and Hattafutte Parade contain surprisingly good bagpipes.

Little Wing, the JAM Project-produced opening to Scrapped Princess, opens with bagpipes and has a short interlude with them in the full version of the song.Word of God has it that the bagpipes were chosen because Kazuki Akane thought it was a Rated M for Manly instrument, and J is always bringing up what it means to be a man. Kind of appropriate given J's signature cooling pipes. The music from Heat Guy J is Epic Rocking on the pipes.

The extended version of the The Vision of Escaflowne opening theme has bagpipes.

The last use of bagpipes during a combat situation in the British Army was during the 1967 Aden Emergency, where the 1st Btn Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders occupied the Crater district of Aden without a single casualty, something High Command thought impossible. War piping made a brief revival during D-Day, when William Millin piped the 1 Special Service Brigade onto Sword Beach. Daniel Laidlaw won the Victoria Cross for piping his faltering company out a trench during a German gas attack during the Battle of Loos.

In World War I, the pipes were used early on, but heavy casualties led to the end of the practice. Throughout the 19th century, pipers were a common feature of Scottish attacks. Pipes were carried into combat during the Battle of Assaye, the The Duke of Wellington's first independent command, where he destroyed a European-trained Maharatha army nearly seven times his numbers. Both persecution by Government forces and mass emigration/deportation to British colonies during the following decades led to a decline in the instrument, but the discovery that Highlanders made excellent shock troops led to a revival. It is a persistent but untrue myth that the bagpipes were banned by the Act of Proscription 1746. The first example of a specifically 'highland' version appears in the 1549 work The Complaynt of Scotland. The earliest concrete evidence for the use of bagpipes is a written account of the Battle of the North Inch of Perth (or Battle of the Clans), which mentions the use of 'warpipes'. The oldest known fragment of a Great Highland Bagpipe is a remnant of a set alleged played by Clan Menzies at the Battle of Bannockburn, but this claim is disputed. The origins of the Great Highland Bagpipe are Shrouded in Myth. Other types of bagpipes have different, less screechy sounds. Since the original bagpipes, as well as the modern Great Highland Bagpipe originally were signaling instruments, meant to be heard over the sounds of a couple thousand dudes banging at each other with bits of metal, one can argue that this is the point. How loud? Well, if the wind is in the right direction and you listen a bit, you can hear the buskers on Edinburgh's Royal Mile from a couple of miles away. Also, a lot less painful outdoors than inside, as they are also quite loud. Hearing somebody unskilled learning to play bagpipes, though, is just as painful as media makes it out to be.
