Finally, a Diablo-inspired song! This one's structure & pacing is a little more progressive & weird than my other recent work, so it may take a few listens to properly vibe with the off-kilter way it ebbs & flows. Enjoy and don't to forget to like, share, comment & all the other things that the algorithm demon demands of me. \m/ Big luv. Gav
@@delco999 Thanks! I love making symphonic metal :) Were I creating more of a character piece, for example from the player's or Lilith's POV, I'd have gone for a darker, more sombre tone. But as a kind of all-encompassing overture on the epic, grandiose Diablo lore, I felt that a big, over-the-top symphonic metal song was a nice fit
It's pretty good if this is outside your wheel helm! I re-watched/ listen to it, it could go 30% harder something about the audio just makes it sounds like someone is holding back their rage in the instrumentals and singing. I did listen to another video/song in the same sentiment as this to make sure the audio making things sound like the kid gloves are on wasn't on my end. If you do something like this again let loose, don't be scared! I want to hear the drums, guitar and any rage singing coming in loud and clear.
It's still beyond my understanding how someone can consistently do something so beautiful and at the same time always diverse and unique. Gav is truly a gem!
@@miracleofsound Awesome bro, this song is something WOW, im listening to it whole day over and over again. And i absolutely love that you included the black metal part :O YOURE THE BEST!!
Nah, needs more gurgling, doom-filled deep bass-lines, screaming and symphonic insanity. LOL (Cradle of Filth fan)👍 To me, this was pretty standard Dark Metal, but it was still fun. I liked it.
@@DocBenson I felt very similar about the movie "Paint your Wagon" featuring Lee Marvin, which was referenced in "the Simpsons" It's pretty funny if things you thought were a joke turn out to be real
How can you combine the style of Powerwolf and Dimmu Borgir in one song while also still being a recognizable Miracle of Sound song and nailing the Diablo vibe on top of that? Gav, you fucking genius. You outdid yourself, and I've been a fan for over 11 years 😄
That's the one! Powerwolf! The band's name sliped my mind. Listened to them way back. During this song, among unmistakable Miracle of Sound vibes, I even remembered a couple of theirs. Damn, good stuff. I'll go now, and refresh my memory of Powerwolf days :)
if i have to follow what i know already its the paladen. in diablo 3 i fucking turned the land INTO A BLOODBATH as a walking engine of war with no equal. i had enough regine to out heal what ever i did. my abilities are just for overkill moving crap alonge
For people who never played Diablo Only lore you need to know to better apreciate this music is this. Angels and Demons split from the same entity eons ago, eventually forming Heaven and Hell, they have been at war ever since. Then an Angel called Inarius and a Demon called Lilith got tired of the conflict and created a world called Sanctuary where they and like minded angels and demons could hide. The angels and demons eventually had children with each other called Nephilim, which were more powerful than either. Heaven and Hell both found out and made a deal to put a limiter on the world to diminish the power of the Nephilim over time, so they got weaker and weaker until they became Humanity. Both sides fear Humanity may turn the scales on the conflict. So mankind was born between the love between Order and Chaos, Good and Evil. "We are noble and we are craven, we are beautiful and we are vile." The events of Diablo 4 mark the return of both Inarius and Lilith, so the whole conflict basically revolves about who's getting custody of the kids.
@@leonmillan6261 Present day Blizzard stuff, had to make the demons sympathetic and the angels hateable. I miss Tyrael and fighting the corrupting influence of Diablo as it slowly took over Sanctuary, not these "oh good and evil are actually subjective". Diablo is not the game to play these stories, never was, no matter how good the writing it just doesn't fit with I and II.
Wow... I've never seen Gavin make music with such a distinct and aggressive style. A very thrilling opening. Like Powewolf and Sabaton, this is a masterpiece and I really like it.
It's a testament to your skill that I can still get chills listening even though I've never been interested in Diablo games. Your way with lyrics tying into the themes and elevating them are what has kept me a fan for years. This one in particular makes me wonder what a Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous song from you would sound like.
Never touched any diablo but when you hinted this was your next song I was insanely excited you always deliver and if there's one person I want to hear make a song that conspires against demons and angels stories it's the miracle himself. Big luv to you too Gav I'm looking forward to listening to this many times to pick up everything you're trying to throw down at us! 💜
I like to hope this one can be relateable for people in real life a little too. So many people struggle with the ideas of good and evil, heaven and hell, gods and demons, belief and unbelief... the great unknoweables in life are a lot for us to deal with sometimes!
@@miracleofsound I love it, very relatable even though I never played Diablo. It does get weird looks when I catch myself singing "mother reborn, to free the torn" at work though. But then, that's an opportunity to share your great work

There are so many different vocal styles on display here, it is so impressive! I don't think I've heard you do whistle screams before! Plus the song as a whole is fucking incredible. Absolutely fantastic work here man.
I absolutely LOVE the infusion of iconic instruments from the source materials in these songs. I'm not a musician so I may get some lingo wrong, but with the acoustics in the beginning of this which evoke the original Tristram theme, or with the guitar riff in "The Moment" mimicking the original Wonder Woman theme, or especially with the entire instrumentation of the Witcher songs, the use of media specific instruments alongside the signature "gavrock" creates this perfect blend of familiarity of style with individuality for each song. It's the thing I love about these (other than the banger vocals and lyricism), that each song retains the strengths of all the others while providing something unique with each new inspiration. Absolute bangers, absolute art.
I cannot stop listening to this. What an absolute masterpiece. I firmly believe MOS is the greatest artist of of our time, and he hasn’t disappointed a single time in over a decade.
I can usually get a feel for where a song is going with rythm and keys, this one kept me guessing almost at a TOOL level, loved it. Also did you do the bat-like screeches with your own voice? They are amazing
It is now a day after release and this song has been on my mind the whole last 24+ hours. This is honestly so damn good. I mean Symphonic metal is my jam, but aside from that the musical and poetic craftwork behind. It is truly outstanding!!
I do not know how or why this affected me to the extent it did. Something about the symbolism of being torn between heaven and hell mixed with the concept of rebirth. Been playing this on loop for two hours now. Thank you Gavin
I can't tell you enough how happy it makes me to see a new release from you Gav :) also, the writing reminds me very much of your other work, it sounds like you through and through. I hope this is the compliment I intended it to be
Due to picking up some older games recently, I've been listening to levels 1-3 a lot. What a musical evolution. I still think that those songs fit those games and movies but its still amazing to see the way this art changes
"It's not my fight. If they try to force me into making it my fight, they will naturally have to pay an equal price." -Yulian Provoke, Chapter 266 of the Red Storm manhwa
I love the so many references hidden in this song. Even for those who haven’t played or familiar with the story line can hear so much from this amazing song. Has some influences from the greats mixed here. Love it! Keep it going!
When you said it was gonna take a few listens to get it to stick, you weren’t kidding Listened to it twice the day of release thinking “eh, it’s ok” Few days later, woke up with it in my head Haven’t been able to go more than a day or two without this ear worm wriggling in my head
I always get so excited to see new songs. Its made me interested in video games more than I used to be, watching these scenes and listening to interpretations.
Getting a lot of different metal vibes with this one, mainly from hearing some Powerwolf-style vocal melodies, black metal guitars...and even a nice little death metal BLEGH! in the middle. 😄 Loving the more complex structure of this one, and the trademark that is the earworm Miracle of Sound vocal melody of the chorus will definitely keep me coming back to this one. 😁
I absolutely love the what's-his-name angel vs Lilith army fight, it scratches an itch for demons getting impaled by a spear wall I didn't even knew I had. It's just so good.
I don’t know why, I must’ve listened to this song several dozen times, but 2 out of 3 times when I sing this to myself, I’ll say ‘We are Pitiful, we are Wise’ instead of ‘We are Beautiful, we are Vile’. I haven’t played D4 so I’m not even sure that line would even work. Still a gold star song.
Fantastic as usual. Including Leah and her uncle fits the theme of humans being collateral damage so well, but that's a punch i hadn't fully recovered from after all those years. Very nicely weaved in ! And again you make me buy a game i was trying not to acquire for the sake of my wallet and sanity. Damn you !
Granted it took me maybe 3/5 of the song to start to vibe with it but god damn it hit good when I did, especially how the chorus flows and especially *especially* 'feet of our mother' part is fantastic! Good job, Gav! Also, probably the first time I've even heard the word 'multifarious' and it works really well.
It feels like several of my favourite metal bands just made a child and it is beautiful. Its amazing how well these styles matches the Diablo feeling. This is a masterpiece. Listening it daily, haha.
Absolutely amazing! This will be on repeat a lot for sure. I feel like you captured the spirit of the franchise really well. I knew I will love it at the moment the Tristram-like guitar made an appearance and it only got better from there!
My favorite thing about the lyrics is that it entails the plight of humanity in the world of Diablo when it comes to Eternal Conflict. They want to be left alone from both sides, even the High Heavens (such as lyrics such as "turn off the blinding light"), but unfortunately, they have to side with the former due to the latter, the Nine Hells, poses a worse if not equal fate for humanity ("If the heavens high shall fall, the abyss shall swallow"), they have no choice but to rebel and fight against them, sometimes with the High Heavens, sometimes even against them. And on its own, it's a kickass song to boot!
Great song as always Gav. I think what amazes me is how diverse your music is. You see a game and can use the perfect genre to create your music. yet each song is distinctively you...Well done!
2:36, I lost my mind when I heard that moment, it sounded a lot like the moment from Open Air, the moment at the 4th minute, I thought my head was all messed up:) But the song is great in general, lately all the songs are straight up catchy, though, always has been.
Hoooooly wow, this absolutely rocks. Absolutely in love on first listen, I think this'll definitely be a long time favourite and a go-to audio caffeine! :D All the different parts with different tempos, levels of engery and overall feel just flow into each other perfectly keeping the song interesting from start to finish (and multiple repeats). Thank you so much!!!
This is really tasty Gav. A mix of old school Gav, and I *adore* the blastbeats in the verses. I love when you go this hard. I honestly don't play Diablo, but this is so ear-caressingly nice that I have nothing but love for the gothic vibe you display here.
Amazing work as always Gav. While it’s got quite a lot of new flavours it’s right up my alley music wise. It’s got everything from symphonic power to black to trad metal.
Miracle of sound is hands down my favorite. This particular song is something i greeatly enjoy vibing to whilst i game. Not a usual structure so it took me a listen or two, but it is wonderfully complex and very very well done.
I just gotta say Gav. Diablo has been an integral part of my life since I was a toddler (not that diablo was ever a game for kids haha) and this song really captures the essence of the diablo story. I don't know how you manage to grab a game and replicate its vibe and feel through the musical medium so perfectly and make it your own, but you do. And that's why you're one of my favourite Musicians of all time
While Miracle of Sound is my favorite individual musicial mastermind, (I'm gonna make an epic bard NPC in DnD based off of you if thats ok) Sabaton is my favorite band. The opening gave me weirdly strong Sabaton vibes and I loved it. The storyline in the song is also awesome, and kinda encapsulates all sides of humanity. Truly another great song, and thank you for it.
Finally! Love this shift towards progressive, almost rupturing rhythm. Diablo 4 is in my top ten of this year, especially considering we still have almost half of it. It's gotta be some kind of magical ablitiy of yours to create such diverse songs over the years. This deserves a well earned like button! By the way. in august it's gonna be ten years since i discovered you, Gav)
Omg this is one of my favourites in the first few seconds. You have really hit it out of the park here and shown your skill for all to see. Love you Gav, please make more like this! I imagine Diablo 2 would also have something to say too or even 1 for a more haunting song. I can't wait to see what you do with the rest of the franchise!
Finally, a Diablo-inspired song! This one's structure & pacing is a little more progressive & weird than my other recent work, so it may take a few listens to properly vibe with the off-kilter way it ebbs & flows.
Enjoy and don't to forget to like, share, comment & all the other things that the algorithm demon demands of me. \m/
Big luv. Gav
The music style chosen is just perfect.
Thanks for your work!
Yeah, there it is!
makes the weekend even better

The part after "Heirs of heaven and hell entwined" has strong Cradle of Filth vibes. That scream and melody. Love it
Ha, I was listening to a lot of black metal while making it! Immortal, Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, Dissection and yes, Cradle too!
@@miracleofsound Awesome bro, this song is something WOW, im listening to it whole day over and over again. And i absolutely love that you included the black metal part :O YOURE THE BEST!!

As always, the answer is "custody is stupid, external decisions are stupid, the kid's choices should be prioritized".

Going to war for your kids sounds weird, but it fiiiiiiiiiiiine :D
Wow... I've never seen Gavin make music with such a distinct and aggressive style. A very thrilling opening. Like Powewolf and Sabaton, this is a masterpiece and I really like it.
This could easily be a powerwolf song and I fuckin love it
If you missed out on it, listen to his DOOM song - "Hell to pay".
Not *exactly* the same vibe but kicks hard, too.
@@KubinWielki I think it's a mix between "Hell to Pay" and "Ascend" (Divinity: Original Sin 2 inspired song).
My very first thoughts exactly! Thats a powerwolf song!😅 But still awesome tho
Anyone else remember Superhuman
Never a boring project when mixing for MOS. This one was next level for sure.

Diablo IV is an epic tale of the universe's bloodiest custody battle.

What's a whistle scream?
@@bromthebard4160I think that's the name for the scream you can hear at 0:27 for example. The high pitched one sounds like whisteling

Part starting on 3:00 with this "Return..." have most epic effect for me. Incredible!

I can usually get a feel for where a song is going with rythm and keys, this one kept me guessing almost at a TOOL level, loved it.

That's a big compliment for me, I'm a huge Tool fan :) And yes I did the screeches!
@@miracleofsound have you ever considered making a black metal track? those screams are amazing
This feels like a Miracleofsound song but at the same time it's fresh and unique, a banger nonetheless
"Even if heaven and hell collide tonight"
First thing that popped into my head with the title.
"Multifarious." Miracle of Vocabulary, one of the only places I can still learn new words. Plus this song rules. Thanks!
Yay learning vocabulary with Gavin together!
1:05 Ugh that line is so good! 😣🤍
"Human grain, sown in pain, harvest it comes for us all"
God daaaamn man, loved taking the journey through this song!

The transitions in and out of the softer "human grain" parts were really well done. This song is amazing!

You’ve captured The Eternal Conflict so well! It’s brilliant!
Due to picking up some older games recently, I've been listening to levels 1-3 a lot. What a musical evolution.
I still think that those songs fit those games and movies but its still amazing to see the way this art changes

Gavin, this is amazing! This song is both a hellish and heavenly delight! Thank you for another masterpiece.
Wish the game had this level of work and respect. Gavin, this song by itself justifies the existence of Diablo 4.
Each lyrics is a masterpiece, like a storyteller putting together his greatest masterpiece, hats off dude great job.
When you said it was gonna take a few listens to get it to stick, you weren’t kidding
Listened to it twice the day of release thinking “eh, it’s ok”

I’ve never played any Diablo game but I am sure that this song will be in my head for days.
I was waiting tightly for this, all is now perfect

Gav, seriously. How do you keep making my favorite song of yours with each release?
Absolutely beautiful song. I've had it on loop for about 3 hours now. I love it. Keep it up Gav. You are a musical genius!
Oh my Diablo! This was awsome! You never disappoint Gav!
My favorite thing about the lyrics is that it entails the plight of humanity in the world of Diablo when it comes to Eternal Conflict.
They want to be left alone from both sides, even the High Heavens (such as lyrics such as "turn off the blinding light"), but unfortunately, they have to side with the former due to the latter, the Nine Hells, poses a worse if not equal fate for humanity ("If the heavens high shall fall, the abyss shall swallow"), they have no choice but to rebel and fight against them, sometimes with the High Heavens, sometimes even against them.
And on its own, it's a kickass song to boot!
Great song as always Gav. I think what amazes me is how diverse your music is. You see a game and can use the perfect genre to create your music. yet each song is distinctively you...Well done!
Through heaven or hell,
Miracle shall come of sound.
Awesome song. Always enjoy your music.
2:36, I lost my mind when I heard that moment, it sounded a lot like the moment from Open Air, the moment at the 4th minute, I thought my head was all messed up:)
But the song is great in general, lately all the songs are straight up catchy, though, always has been.
As always, I'm blown away. This is absolutely fantastic!
Hoooooly wow, this absolutely rocks. Absolutely in love on first listen, I think this'll definitely be a long time favourite and a go-to audio caffeine! :D All the different parts with different tempos, levels of engery and overall feel just flow into each other perfectly keeping the song interesting from start to finish (and multiple repeats). Thank you so much!!!
This is really tasty Gav. A mix of old school Gav, and I *adore* the blastbeats in the verses.
I love when you go this hard. I honestly don't play Diablo, but this is so ear-caressingly nice that I have nothing but love for the gothic vibe you display here.
Gotta love some black metal blasties 🤘
@@miracleofsound 🤘
I love the fact that this song still have reminiscent parts of diablo 2 theme song. Love it and keep up the good work ❤!
Came here to write the same! The Tristram theme in undertones is so nostalgic!
This man just can’t miss
Incredible! It's amazing to me how someone can hop so flawlessly from one genre of music to another, but you make it seem easy.
good lord, just the first vocals give me huge powerwolf vibes
I love how you keep making banger songs based on games I couldn't care less about.
2:45 BLYATT!
Put this bad boy on repeat for sure, awesome new song
miracleofsound is easily my favourite musician, but I've never love a song so quickly
Amazing work as always Gav. While it’s got quite a lot of new flavours it’s right up my alley music wise. It’s got everything from symphonic power to black to trad metal.
Your music always captures the essence of the subject so well, I had chills the entire time
Both the music and the lyrics is first class. Love your music Gav, its so layered and refined, nothing matches it honestly.
Ah nice I love it when Powerwolf drops a new single
This is a whole saga in one song. Absolutely incredible.
wow... a new style for the master... Well done!
Miracle of sound is hands down my favorite. This particular song is something i greeatly enjoy vibing to whilst i game. Not a usual structure so it took me a listen or two, but it is wonderfully complex and very very well done.
Bro this songs slaps. how do you never miss??????
I just gotta say Gav. Diablo has been an integral part of my life since I was a toddler (not that diablo was ever a game for kids haha) and this song really captures the essence of the diablo story. I don't know how you manage to grab a game and replicate its vibe and feel through the musical medium so perfectly and make it your own, but you do.
And that's why you're one of my favourite Musicians of all time
While Miracle of Sound is my favorite individual musicial mastermind, (I'm gonna make an epic bard NPC in DnD based off of you if thats ok) Sabaton is my favorite band. The opening gave me weirdly strong Sabaton vibes and I loved it. The storyline in the song is also awesome, and kinda encapsulates all sides of humanity. Truly another great song, and thank you for it.
Not only a great song, but has the world ‘multifarious’ in it. Absolute Chad.
Beautiful !
This is one of your best songs ever. You never fail to make a masterpiece.
Getting home from work. New Miracle of Sound song. Life is good.
New Miracle of Sound song? Absolutely epic birthday present. Thanks Gav :D
You outdid yourself with lyrics this time around. 10/10, perfect theme understanding
amazing song as always
This is SO AWESOME!! I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve listened to this already! 😁
Finally! Love this shift towards progressive, almost rupturing rhythm. Diablo 4 is in my top ten of this year, especially considering we still have almost half of it. It's gotta be some kind of magical ablitiy of yours to create such diverse songs over the years. This deserves a well earned like button!
By the way. in august it's gonna be ten years since i discovered you, Gav)
Wow here comes one of those songs that explodes and leaves an unique mark!! this song is amazing Gav! i love it!!
So much Powerwolf in this song, hearing the two of you together would be too much for any mortal ear. Worthy of the history books as always Gavin
Fantastic drum work! The rhythms absolutely drive this one!
Omg this is one of my favourites in the first few seconds. You have really hit it out of the park here and shown your skill for all to see. Love you Gav, please make more like this! I imagine Diablo 2 would also have something to say too or even 1 for a more haunting song. I can't wait to see what you do with the rest of the franchise!
Now, this is the Diablo 4 song we've been waiting for
