Imagine Dune, Star Wars, Tolkien, punk and 2000AD put into a blender and made into a wargame. That's 40K (the first edition at least).
The Imperium are the good guys and they are a bunch of fascist, xenophobic, miliatarists. Can you tell it was written by young men in the 1980s?

I never noticed when I was a kid that the jaw of the Emperor of Mankind is distended in an eternal scream. Just as well.
It was the old Thrash/death metal band Bolt Thrower that first drew me into 40k...and I have loved it ever since.
