Edvard Grieg was the first metal musician. This was an inevitable transition and many have attempted this, including apocalyptica, but I think you went about it the right way and didn't try to change the song's essence. You didn't have to make it metal, it was already metal, that's what others have failed to grasp but you saw it and exploited it. This is perfect in every way. Really great job.

As a person who has a minorly major obsession with classical and metal music and has been listening to this specific version of the song by falkkone for years, anyone who reads this, take my word on this but this man does a fuck ton of dope shit.
When you use everything you have to kill that damn boss that has been getting on your nerves since day one, but then it slowly rises up with a fully recovered health bar.
Borderlands Dr ned Dlc was exactly this, when you kill him as the final boss and jump down to the loot room but he comes back as this giant gory zombie monster, now that scared me
I like how it feels like it pulses rapidly at times. Also the extra part after the middle of the song ends. Feels like getting hit, rising up, and taking revenge.
So at Last night's D&D session someone had to be executed...so they picked a firing squad...of bards. He was sentenced to "Death by Mountain King". You see where this is going...
i was litteraly trying to find an intense "in the hall of the mountain king" for a big battle coming up in my campaign. DM said find some songs you might like to hear in the game
Sounds like it starts like a Monday, crawls into a Tuesday, wanders into a Wednesday, thunders into a Thursday, crashes into a Friday, with shots on Saturday and blackout on Sunday
We in the Warhammer Fantasy Orc and Goblin armies refer to that as an ‘Eadbang. Quite messy. Very loud and destructive since the Waaagh energy blows up too. But entertaining to watch.
I feel like the king of the mountain is reclaiming his stolen throne And at 2:22 after defeating the false king was walking through the throne bloody but victorius.
One of the best songs used to describe things spiraling out of control. Seemingly describing the logical steps of one thing leads to another, and as things overlap, things gets heavier until it reaches a sudden stop - don't be fooled, the sudden stop is only our view in summary, separately same/similar/different versions of In the Hall of the Mountain King still continue.
0:56 when you saved your skyrim file on the part your about to die with no escape 1:33 when you just have to accept the death loop you got your self into
I honestly don't know how you don't have more subs. You have an GIGANTIC plethora of different games,shows, classical, etc. And Metal is a genre A LOT of people enjoy.
Something similar happened at our school. The orchestra was playing In der Halle des Bergkönigs and our band got bored as well as frustrated, because their piece was cancelled. So they just were there, behind the thin wooden wall that separated the stage from the staff room and decided to jump in. The orchestra stuttered for a second, since it was completely unplanned and spontaneous and they didn’t know we’d do it. But then they rolled with it and was amazing. Both for us in the band and for the orchestra. Also for the audience, since we somehow managed to get just about three hundred positive review cards from 250 guests. Don’t ask me how that happened. Everyone got only one card to write down his thoughts. In case You’re wondering, in our school we have these feedback cards. Half the size of a postcard. And we give them to everyone attending an event.
“Welcome Traveler, You dare approach the mountain king” “I’ve came for a battle, I need the princess” “Thou must realise, thoust arch doomed” -Music Plays-
This song is by itself a perfect mixture of both ultimate chaos and overwhelming order at the same time. Give a metal twist to it and it has become one of my all time favorites!!!
I just jumped on my chair when i saw the notification : "FalKKonE posted a new content: Edvard Grieg - In the Hall of the Mountain KIIGJIGNGINGINGINUDI god i love ya" Great artwork by the way, well picked :)
I’m imagining some kind of game that includes a “Mountain King” character, and this song plays during their boss battle, having dynamic levels of intensity depending on what phase the battle is in. Edit: Here are possible timestamps for each phase: 0:00 Phase 1/Introduction, 0:50 Phase 1.5/2 getting more difficult 1:22 Phase 2/2.5 bigger increas in difficulty than the last one, 1:58 Phase 3, the boss will have a big increase in difficulty and maybe some visual changes, introduction of new attacks, 2:21 Phase π, slight calm down, small decrease in difficulty, 2:50 Phase 4, the health bar depleted and a second one appears, another difficulty increase, the climax of the battle new, strong attacks, drastic visual change, and finally 3:34 Phase ☠️, a cutscene starts and the Mountain King starts to die, you have finally beaten them, maybe one of those quick-time events where you have to mash a button could be in this phase, 3:58 the battle is over.
I always picture a couple of the performers gently setting down their instruments, and going to the hidden guitars, undoing their ties/ hair and waiting for their queue to rock
It is one of my favorite musics !!! Truly a masterpiece, one of the best humanity ever did. Not a lot of peoples dislike it. This is proven by the fact than to this day we still use or listen to it.
Not only have I just discovered this channel, I've just discovered my next obsession for the next however long it will take me to binge the entire contents at least 3 times.
So I got a funny story. As I was listening to this cover I was jamming and accidentally slammed my elbow into the side of a table near instantly knocking me out only to wake up like an hour later. Your cover was so good it knocked me out for two hours.
i can imagine this playing as the doom slayer walks into hell holding the super shot gun as it gets faster 1:30 he pulls out the gun and puts two shotgun slugs in it and when it gets to and the first shot fires at 1:32
This is one of the few RUclips videos I have watched more then 3 times. This and Star Wars trailers. This may genuinely be one of my favorite pieces of music.
🤯🤯🤯I'm 40 and it just clicked that the inspector gadget theme is inspired/influenced by In The Hall of the Mountain King. I guess it just never occurred to me, or ever had given it any thought prior to listening to this today. That's so funny that i'd never made that connection so thanks Falkkone!

Yeah, I was looking for a metal version of this song, and I saw Apocalyptica's first. I thought it was terrible. This is much better.

Underrated comment
Totally underrated comment indeed. Totally needed cover.
bramble: the mountain king:
I mean, the original piece already kinda sounds like boss music
I can truly say this classic rocks. Do Beethoven "Moonlight Sonata" next.
I was not expecting the metal part to come in after so long but when it hit ...*Choir of angels*
The riff that came in from a distance at 2:30 is extraordinary 🧠
When people say classical music isn't cool
Is it really classical if you cover it with metal music?
@@justsomeone4347
At its roots, yes.
Heh
I’ll take it over the popular music today
I mean, metal is actually heavily influenced by classical. It's basically classical with louder and electronic sounds. Especially melodic deathmetal.
I dont know why but old classical music just fits with metal
1:20 When you realize you have unfinished homework and try to finish it before class.
me at night searching on my phone how to sleep:
Need more absurd songs....
Do ave maria next xD
I second this notion!
I third

Why don't Maria and Draco
