Here's a GOG code for Alan Wake's American Nightmare for PC: VUG55FC138352559B7 Go to www.gog.com/redeem/ to redeem it. It will expire on June 27, 23:59 CEST.
i didn't liked this game that much, but that was a cool part, this song encouraged me to keep playig the game, blasting away shadowy enemies in the observatory with an AA12 , like a badass
When I say that I am talking about the original. I own both. American Nightmare is more of an Arcade game and not as in depth but it finishes up the story nicely. The first Alan Wake game is so good I became a die hard fan of the series and pray they'll bring another one out one day.
P.S. Controp just came out and is connected to Alan Wake. In fact its continuing the story. Also at 3:43 theres a hidden message in this song if you reverse it.
exactly! :D when this music came up when you were battling a horde of "takens" inside that telescope laboratory for the imaging array that moment was sick!love this game!
JayDee284 WAIT. WAIT WAIT WAIT. Until like, 5 seconds ago the game was cancled and they had this big "we aren't making a sequel sorry guys" video and everything... AND NOW THERE'S AN ARTICLE TALKING ABOUT A SEQUEL WOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOO *breaks out glowsticks*
This moment obviously tried to recapture the glory of the one Alan wake scene (oh, you know which one). While it may not have reached that apex of epicness, it was pretty awesome and I loved the reference.
Yeah it didn't hit the same high mark but it was still a "Oh hell yeah, it's time to kick ass" moment in what was a pretty meh expansion up to that point.

Reverse the song. At 3:43 theres a secret message hidden. It states, "It will happen again, in another town... called Ordinary." This us where Controls story comes in to Alan Wake.
Agree, i played the game back in 2013 and i thought that would be cool I've been playing it again (ty Humble Bundle) and i think it's now a cooler idea
Just finished American Nightmare, yeah 2 years late. But this song mesmerized me. What a rush this song was, vintage mid-late 80s metal sound. Loved it!
Wow! Just discovered this song. Played through the base came numerous times since its release. Never played the dlc's before this year. What an awesome song
Alan Wake was one of the best games from Remedy, even if they worked 5 years for it it worth it and i'm really sad Alan Wake's not remedy's next game, but i still cant wait for quantum break :)
and now they have everithing they need to make the sequel, got the rights, got the money, and got the liberty to do so, after their next game alan wake 2 will come
@@zizan2071 i know u commented 2 months ago but there is a alan wake easter egg in control wich means its probably is in the same universe so there can be a next alan wake game
This is something makes your head bang even in the middle of utter desperation It is far the best of the 80s mood songs written in the 21st century, even beating Steel Panther :)
+Eric Johnson actually years are considered natural numbers where zero does not represent any value, it represents the lack of value. So there was no "zeroeth" year, 1 AD followed 1 BC, not 0 AD :) and it is the same reason that the period from 1 AD to 99 AD is called the FIRST century, not the "zeroeth". So the period between 2000-2099 is the 21st century :)
Alan Wake is one of my favourite games of all time, i have all achievements in that game. And i get all achievements only in games i enjoy the most. Alan Wake is one of these games, i hope they announce a Alan Wake 2 for the XBOX One. Common Remedy release Quantum Break, announce a Alan Wake 2 and everything will be OK.
I wonder if Control was already planned at the time of this game, considering the reversed spoken part in this song. Ordinary is the name of the town in that game right?
So you think hunting obscure riffs and pointing them out makes you popular? Oh yes. Please continue doing that. Do you have channel for that?.. no wait you're just on of those "Nobody actually cares, but I can talk shit and play games" type. Just like about 50000 others before you. You're just too stupid to even understand that pieces of songs can really sound similar and some will sound exactly like, which should be obvious to anyone, but to the densest of listeners. No need to point them out, unless you want to be a douche. You were a whining douche and that was my point. You can't go over it, can't go under it, can't go around it, so just accept it. Idiot.
Gggmanlives posted really offensive reply to my first comment and then I just mimicked his style. He deleted the comment and that's why there's one post missing in between. Just like Tony Favilla is apparently talking to an imaginary person.
@FatMus2 That's a sticky wicket. In the manuscripts, Alan basically says he overlaid Night Springs on top of another city that was both a thin place between reality and the dark place and otherwise a perfect analogy for Night Springs. So it's simeltaneously real and not-a loophole that allowed Alan temporarily back into reality, but at the same time not.
***** In Alan Wake they "confirmed" Alan Wake 2. They never completely killed it off, just moved onto Quantum Break next since Alan Wake didn't sell on the consoles well at the time, making it not an immediate priority(it sold a ton on the PC version when it finally came on). The sequel is unsure but not completely dead yet.. we'll see what happens once they have Quantum Break out and they can restrospectively look at how the actual value of the Alan Wake franchise is a lot higher than they gave it credit for, particularly when properly released and marketed (no console exclusivity for 2 years killing your game).. But judging by them doing Quantum Break solely on the Xbox One with an exclusive deal... I'm scared too.
***** Are you kidding? Financially it wasn't the best, but that's because a lot of people can't appreciate a good story line when they see one, everyone is so fixated on linear cod shit that they don't stop to pay attention to something that's actually good.
epiclepticgs Good eye seeing that story has become second fiddle to gameplay don't get me wrong gameplay is important but story is what is truly lacking these days even games that seem to have a solid story screw it up some where along the line (I am looking at you Mass Effect) I love Alan Wake it had a new plot gameplay was solid and was a lot of fun to see it all turn out at the end. Wish they would get around to finishing the story however the number of cliff hangers these days are getting on my nerves.
"There's light, and there's darkness, cause and effect, there's guilt and there's atonement. But the scales always need to balance, everything has a price."
with you there.BEST game in story that makes out most of american horror/psychological movies in 1 game.1 DAMN GOOD game with strong story,dialogues and hypothesis.looks like the creators mixed up great elements from tv series like"previously in ......." and great actor voices as well.
so most know about "bALANce slays the demon," but what about when the two lines of the verse are put together. "Deep in the ocean of darkness in the mirror of light bALANce becomes a stranger "And in your fantasies he writes a storm on your peace, WAKE up and smell the danger. and there is also the clever chorus of " Ever the light casts a shadow Ever the NIGHT SPRINGS from the light "
@Djtechno758 From the Alan Wake wiki and a couple of other websites. The dropbox link sounds similar, only difference is, "It will happen again, in another town, a town called Ordinary." I don't have any kind of sound editing software to personally confirm it.
Yes, there will be another Alan Wake game, they're already working on it behind closed doors releasing tiny snippets of info and hints time to time so I'd say it's only a matter of time before a full reveal.
I think it's safe to assume that this song is intentionally meant to have lyrics that reflect the story. The developers aren't trying to keep that a hidden secret. It's still cool when you notice them though; like the emphasis on the word 'scratch' when it's spoken.
I beg to differ although I respect your opinion. Alan Wake kept my attention from beginning to end. And I don't play trash sir. A demon that prays on artistic thought and feelings.. that's pretty freaking epic.
@sab2fan24 That's because the Old Gods are supposed to be a (fictional) rock band from the '70s doing a reunion, so they should sound like one. In reality, Poets of the Fall (a real, finnish band) does all their songs, which are written specifically for the games (with assistance from Sami Järvi/Sam Lake, the games' lead writer and a close friend of them). There is actually an in-joke regarding this in American Nightmare, when a radio host points out they sound differently in their songs.
Does any one think there will be another Alan Wake game? Because at the end of the credits it does say that the story is not over. "Alan Wake's journey through the night will continue."
@JamesCaroso Maybe it means the next game will take place in the "Ordinary" world like the first game did, since Night Springs is supposed to be fictional.
Reversed speech section: "It will happen again, in another town, called Ordinary" Town of Ordinary will be anything but, if you know what I'm saying. ;-)

This song is an object of power
It's so 80's, that's what gives it power.
It did cause an altered world event
i didn't liked this game that much, but that was a cool part, this song encouraged me to keep playig the game, blasting away shadowy enemies in the observatory with an AA12 , like a badass
There is no way this song isn't something supernatural considering it literally mentions ordinary
@@HyperrealisticLuigi the band is a regularly on a inter-dimensional tour
It did, in fact, happen again. In a town called Ordinary.
Now you can take control.
"From beyond the lake he called home
Lies a deeper, darker ocean green"
Wait a sec... Was that Zane's poem?
Yes
Just like "Beyond the shadow you settled for, there is a miracle illuminated" part
With waves Wilder and more Serene
@@piratetv1 "to its ports ive been, to its ports ive been", nice future reference to quantum break
Alan Wake grabbed me in a way that no other game ever has. It is by far my favorite game of all time. This song is awesome!
Did you play AN?
When I say that I am talking about the original. I own both. American Nightmare is more of an Arcade game and not as in depth but it finishes up the story nicely. The first Alan Wake game is so good I became a die hard fan of the series and pray they'll bring another one out one day.
Scott Wolfe Agreed, I'm a huge fan and dream that we'll get Alan Wake 2 one day
I can only dream of the day we see Alan Wake 2. Just an amazing game.
P.S. Controp just came out and is connected to Alan Wake. In fact its continuing the story. Also at 3:43 theres a hidden message in this song if you reverse it.
"(...) As their manager. Barry Wheeler had managed to coax a few hit songs out of them before that. Balance Slays the Demon. A couple of others."
I can't get over Alan Wake's meta-level storytelling, particularly with the music. I love this stuff!
"It'll happen again, in another town, a town called 'Ordinary.'" That's the reversed part.
Yes, rarity, YOU had to figure that out. I for one, think it might also be the setting for the second game ^_^
So I'm playing Control right now, just started but the protagonist is from a town called Ordinary where something happened.
@@DarthThel oh, you'll find WAY more than that..
ya estaban haciendo control desde 2012, sin duda remedy es genial
Ok how the hell did you know that?
"It will happen again, in another town, a town called Ordinary."
That's the reversed part...!!!
+PS4NextGenGamer Tricks xD
Kyon :Nothing interesting happens here
Jesus what a mindfuck, its the name of the town from Control... goosebumps
bro wtf?
Who would have thought YEARS LATER that a reversed message would tie into control and expand the Alan Wake lore. Strange times 😂
Wait, what are you talking about
If you play section backwards it says itll happen again in a town called ordinary
@@vlanson6529 Isn't Alan Wake Remastered already out? Or did I misunderstand this comment?
The perfect song to get pumped up to when battling the darkness.
My thoughts exactly :D
exactly! :D when this music came up when you were battling a horde of "takens" inside that telescope laboratory for the imaging array that moment was sick!love this game!
"Taken" is invariable.
Or the hiss
This and "War" are neck and neck for me.
So we've switched from Stephen King-esque horror to 80's action flick...
Which is AWESOME.
+Thomas Cahyuti The Alan wake 2 prototype looked like it had a similar idea, with the whole twilight zone/sci-fi vibes too :)
+sebastianwillows Good news Alan Wake 2 is in the works :D
JayDee284
WAIT.
WAIT WAIT WAIT. Until like, 5 seconds ago the game was cancled and they had this big "we aren't making a sequel sorry guys" video and everything... AND NOW THERE'S AN ARTICLE TALKING ABOUT A SEQUEL
WOOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOO
*breaks out glowsticks*
sebastianwillows
Yes Sam Lake said they might start after Quantum Break that also looks really good :)
Thomas Cahyuti so basically from a Steven king novel to a Steven king movie?
This moment obviously tried to recapture the glory of the one Alan wake scene (oh, you know which one). While it may not have reached that apex of epicness, it was pretty awesome and I loved the reference.
Control has a new song from Old Gods of Asgard that gets used in a way that just as awesome. Heck, it might even top the concert from Alan Wake.
Yeah it didn't hit the same high mark but it was still a "Oh hell yeah, it's time to kick ass" moment in what was a pretty meh expansion up to that point.
Deep in the ocean of darkness
In the mirror of light
Balance becomes a stranger
And in your fantasies he writes a storm on your peace
Beyond the shadow you settle for
There is a miracle, doom belated
(Song)
Deep in the ocean of darkness
In the mirror of light
Balance becomes a stranger
And in your fantasies he writes a storm on your peace
Wake up and smell the danger
(Chorus)
Ever the light cuts the shadow
Ever the night springs from the light
In the end
It’s never just the light you need
When balance slays the demon
You’ll find peace
In the end
It’s never just the dark you seek
When balance slays the demon
You’ll find peace
Find your peace! Oh YEAHHH!
(Opening Voice)
Beyond the lake he called home
Lies a deeper, darker ocean green
(Song)
Like an evil twin
Feel it scratchin’ within
Like an insane sudden rangin’
And his beautiful face with his leathery lace
So can’t you see the play he’s staging?
(Chorus)
Ever the light cuts the shadow
Ever the night springs from the light
In the end
It’s never just the light you need
When balance slays the demon
You’ll find peace
In the end
It’s never just the dark you seek
When balance slays the demon
You’ll find peace
Find your peace! OH! YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH! AH!
(Chorus)
In the end
It’s never just the light you need
When balance slays the demon
You’ll find peace
In the end
It’s never just the dark you seek
When balance slays the demon
You”l find peace
Find your peace! OH YEAH!
(Voice)
Screaming, new darkness
Descend on this frail frame
I drown in fathomless black space
Will I never scratch the depths of this domain?
I see not, yet nothing could be worse
Than the shades my mind calls herein
Alone, in my own wake
The unraveling
Of reasons schemed
yes, fluttershy had to be the one to post the lyrics for this song, it's TOO badass for her! XD XD
Thank's a lot ^_^

@@SpartanPrimeDSTY117 "Fat" Bob Balder would like a word with you, boi.
Love how Barry was like, 'Gonna make this all 21'st century,' ... Song sounds like 80's metal (not that that's a bad thing).
Barry was the true hero of the game for producing this song.
carlos martinez he didnt
Reverse the song. At 3:43 theres a secret message hidden. It states, "It will happen again, in another town... called Ordinary." This us where Controls story comes in to Alan Wake.
I interacted with a radio, and I was served this song. I had to wait and listen to the whole thing. It's a great song!
They should do the prequel about the story of the old gods of asgard fighting the darkness, that would be bad ass
Holy shit that's a great idea !
David Sun I'd buy that, great idea, btw.
Agree, i played the game back in 2013 and i thought that would be cool
I've been playing it again (ty Humble Bundle) and i think it's now a cooler idea
Hear me out, maybe also one where you play as Thomas Zane?
Odin's eyepatch and Tor's hammer should be objects of power.
I felt the power of this song!!
I too
I feel it! I feel the cosmos!
:D
This song pumps me up like nobody's business.
Songs are like manuscripts, holds great power!
Just finished American Nightmare, yeah 2 years late. But this song mesmerized me. What a rush this song was, vintage mid-late 80s metal sound. Loved it!
An underrated spin off to an underrated game, and I love the soundtrack In both games!

This is the time developers should spend on games, because there are no bugs OR glitches in the game! Gameplay, story and graphics were perfect!
Gurlui Octavian Remedy hasn't made a bad game yet; first Max Payne and then Alan Wake. I'm looking forward to Quantum Break as well.
and now they have everithing they need to make the sequel, got the rights, got the money, and got the liberty to do so, after their next game alan wake 2 will come
Bad news bud, it ain't good, Control has more of the SCP-ish filling. So yeah. No true Alan Wake game for us.
@@zizan2071 i know u commented 2 months ago but there is a alan wake easter egg in control wich means its probably is in the same universe so there can be a next alan wake game
I like imaging this song playing while Alan faces off against Mr. Scratch, like a boss battle theme.
You know, it'll be about 12-13 years after, but you know what? Alan's story will finally close. And you have no idea how much that makes me happy.
cant wait for another cliffhanger
@@wowie1107 to say it was a cliffhanger is an understatement.
My favorite band! Ladies and gentleman, Poets of the Fall! I have all of their albums, OMG they are so good!

oh man it is.
Cryptid undead It actually is though.
OGoA are a fictional band in the Alan Wake universe, but really it's Poets of the Fall.
Eh they're not too good but they did make some bangers Temple of Thought was almost completely dog shit
It sounds like something straight off a 80s movie soundtrack, which is kind of awesome.
ALAN WAKE 2 BABY WE ARE BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK
This is something makes your head bang even in the middle of utter desperation
It is far the best of the 80s mood songs written in the 21st century, even beating Steel Panther :)

No I'm still going with twentieth.
I really don't care what century we end up in, i'l never change, and i'm one of the few people that can actually say that and stick to it.

And years later they finally kind of confirmed alan wake 2. What a prophet
In control, when you listen to one of Jesse's therapy recording, she quotes one of the lines in this.
OMG
i'm just listening to the song 6 times in a row
PERFECT
I wonder if Control was already planned at the time of this game, considering the reversed spoken part in this song. Ordinary is the name of the town in that game right?
This game started as Alan Wake 2, but due the IP owned by MS back than, It evolved into Control.
@@penyuwan Not true. Remedy owned the AW IP for a long time, Microsoft only had publishing rights.
They did plan Control before Alan Wake 2, but then Microsoft didn't want either so they came up with Quantum Break.
This song is so EPIC! Can't wait for Alan Wake 2!! I love Alan Wake!!! :-)
2023, my friend, 2023

Gotta say...this just might be the best fictional band ever. I think I can comfortably call myself a fan of The Old Gods Of Asgard! Also, Alan Wake.
Old Gods Of Asgard are actually Poets of the Fall band from real life.

@DrJuanitor that and they said that a true sequel is in the works. that seems to be hinting at Alan Wake 2 too.
@MsRandomperson1 i hope so too! i hope American Nightmare was just a stepping stone for an Alan Wake 2
@sab2fan24 That's because the Old Gods are supposed to be a (fictional) rock band from the '70s doing a reunion, so they should sound like one. In reality, Poets of the Fall (a real, finnish band) does all their songs, which are written specifically for the games (with assistance from Sami Järvi/Sam Lake, the games' lead writer and a close friend of them). There is actually an in-joke regarding this in American Nightmare, when a radio host points out they sound differently in their songs.
So badass!
@axlhun Yeah, definitely seems like a message from the Old Gods to Alan.
This game has the best songs
this sounds old school as fuck poets should do more like this.
Whole band is awesome but the guitarist and vocalist are so good
@ALocalVandal In the final verse, "Alone, in my own wake". A. Wake.
Does any one think there will be another Alan Wake game? Because at the end of the credits it does say that the story is not over. "Alan Wake's journey through the night will continue."
This makes for an awesome battle track
@ALocalVandal And "Find the peace!" could also be "Find the piece!", as in piece of the signal.^^
Awesome!
The hidden message is "It will happen again, in a town called 'Ordinary'."
alan wake has the best soundtrack ever !
@JamesCaroso Maybe it means the next game will take place in the "Ordinary" world like the first game did, since Night Springs is supposed to be fictional.
@TrojanFoxx - Thanks!
i love the game and the dlc , remedy should work withe them in the entire game soundtrack , wish to have the second one ahead
Reversed speech section:
"It will happen again, in another town, called Ordinary"
Town of Ordinary will be anything but, if you know what I'm saying. ;-)
BANGER!
"Balance slays the demon" refers to the balance between light and darkness in the stories that Alan has to write to fight the darkness.
THE OLD GODS OF ASGARD ROCKS!!!!!!!
