    I’ve listened to this probably about 30 times in the 14 hours it’s been on RUclips. Mixing Nier’s already good soundtrack with Little V’s epic metal makes a really good combo.

  • @vintagedot8350
    @vintagedot8350 6 лет назад +413

    I think the most ironic thing here is that metal is supposed to be a genre about rebellion and shit. But he sang the song wearing the visor from Neir Automata which is supposed to symbolise being a blind follower and not realising the truth.

    • @Im_Just_A_Dreamer
      @Im_Just_A_Dreamer 6 лет назад +20

      I don’t think that's ironic.

      @MakiMaki. 6 лет назад +17

      Yes, it's guaranteed no edited video and he played everything live as he recorded this footage, because this is how music videos work. :P (Having said that, it is certainly possible to play blindfolded, and as long as there is not too much quick and lengthy movement between frets, it shouldn't even be that difficult :) )

  • @VII0777
    @VII0777 6 лет назад +1

    Damn, I loved how you decided to process your guitar sound. When you opened with the leading riff, I was expecting the guitar to sound close for some reason. So I was surprised and pleased when I heard how distant it sounded. Added to the epicness.

  • @Semuko88
    @Semuko88 6 лет назад

    Your cover is so awesome, and it's funny because one of the first songs I heard from you was 4 years ago was this song without you singing. I'm glad you started including vocals, rock on! Here's to 4 more years!

    • @HiiroRocker101
      @HiiroRocker101 6 лет назад +44

      Tzarvus Most of the Nier songs use gibberish lyrics based in actual linguistic theory and particular languages. For example, Kaine Escape and Salvation is based on Gaelic, and Grandma is based on French. Sometimes the fake words that comprise the lyrics are completely meaningless, and sometimes there are particular real words or phrases injected into the fake words that lend a bit of meaning to it. I read a comment on a video of Grandma by a native French speaker that claimed the lyrics bore certain similarities to French phrases, and they came up with an interpretive translation of the song. I'll have to look for it later when I have time.

    • @RenaRoseheart
      @RenaRoseheart 6 лет назад +34

      Most of the music in this game is in the Chaos language.

    • @Alysana2604
      @Alysana2604 6 лет назад +22

      The singer of the soundtracks, Emi Evans, is a British-Japanese singer who speaks multiple other languages. They asked her to invent lyrics that sounded like some languages, like Gaelic, French, English, Japanese, Portuguese, Spanish etc. This song had no particular language set behind it and these were the first lyrics that she wrote for the game. Kainé is based on Gaelic for example.

    • @neoshenlong
      @neoshenlong 6 лет назад +3

      I'd like to add they didn't ask the songwriter to create new languages based on real ones just for the lols. The concept behind it is "how would languages evolve in the following 1000 years (the setting of the first NieR). The idea is that this songs are each sang in a futuristic version of our modern real world languages.

    • @lennchen5432
      @lennchen5432 6 лет назад

      Nier Automata was confusing with the tracks, because as an example the ending exists in english, japanese and niers world language.
      It's embarassing, because I am not well at all with japanese and this worlds laguage (obviously cus it's a mix of multiple languages), wich is why I don't quite know when a song with japanese lyrics is playing or not - I made a guess.
