The machinery is not part of the original track, "Betrayal". I added them as a remix 15 years ago that I called "Twin Red Pyramids". This guy found MY version online, looped it 3 times to "extend" it, and called it his own.
@@joecitizen4116 The machinery sounds were removed from the original soundtrack. They were more like game soundFX in the background, although I desire that they were part of the music track.
I was weak. That's why I needed you... needed someone to punish me for my sins... but that's all over now... I know the truth. Now it's time to end this.
SH2 Pyramid Head was awesome! He’s a terrifying representation of James’ thirst for punishments and basically an icon of the game. Though later on he only appeared as fan services and basically served no purpose.
I just finished the game for the first time today and comparatively to how beloved this character is he barely gets any screen time in the game. I was kind of surprised since I expected him to be a little bit more like RE3 Nemesis (not that I'd need that lol) but a bit more exposure would have been cool.
@@Buuhuu19 i felt the same way, but it just shows how much of a truly infamous, terrifying, and influential creature pyramid head is. two boss fights and not a whole lot else yet hes one of horror gaming’s most iconic monsters. goes to show how impactful this game as a whole is
@@bers6666 hey not all western things are bad this game didn't do to well in Japan until 3 came out I understand downpour and all that but homecoming was one of the strongest American versions of the series can't knock that genius of a game reminds me of 2 as well
Yup, that’s why I like it.. this track helped me get through a dark period when I was on the brink of thinking I was done with life. I felt like I finally saw my real self and my inner universe open up a little and relit the flame for me, not a lot of music has had that impact on me. Thank you Akira Yamaoka 💜
Yep. This is literally what I'm like every single day. It's like the "angel" type singing is what life should be like and then the mechanical whirring is constantly there showing that no matter what I do I will never have a life like what life should be as it's constant pain and suffering to me and nothing I do can stop that. It's like I'm looking through the hell of what could be but will never ever have a chance to experience it
Nah it'd be more like Black Fairy. From my own experience. Depression isn't something overly dramatic. It's just. Emptiness, the feeling of being hollow.
I’ve never even played this game, yet I’ve become absolutely fascinated with Pyramid Head and Silent Hill in general. It’s fairly obvious that this was way more than just a video game
Your comment is 2 years old, but let me say this: I just finished the Pyramid Head part where this song plays and it was amazing. Downloaded the game and installed Silent Hill 2: Enhanced Edition on the PC. It holds up very well and I am certain you would enjoy it, if you haven't played it yet. It's not a hard game either, but very heavy with imagery.
The original still proves superior. The screaming from those industrial saws and that sadness inducing choir is just far more impactful than the remake's version of this soundtrack. The other makes the player's adrenaline rush through their veins in it's themes of determination, which is epic in its own right. But this one- this one hits the player in the soul with the mechanical sounds of pain, depression and madness.
One represented the old blood, the past and regret, while his brother represented new blood, and the sacrifice of forgetting all the pain. The both torment you to make you remember what sins you've commited in your past and remind you that you can't run from your past. That's why one is covered in brown, dried blood, and the other is covered in fresh blood. This also explains the color of the eggs you collect from them. Their suicide means that you understand why they came and they relize you don't need them anymore. You've remembered yourself and know what it takes to change. SYMBOLISM EXPLAINED!
To add to the symbolism, do you think it would be really neat if they ever did a proper adaptation of Silent Hill 2 and had the same actor, who would play James Sunderland, dress up as Pyramid Head, to have the monster's footage spliced with James'? That way, when people look behind the scenes and realize that the actor was playing both characters, it would further solidify that Pyramid Head is a manifestation of his own repressed guilt and desire to punish himself, through suicide.
+Murder of Crows I think it would also work because Maria is a doppelganger of Mary, whom James sees being repeatedly killed by Pyramid Head. So if the same actor played both James and Pyramid Head, then it would be like James is watching himself kill Maria, reenacting his past crime against Mary even more accurately. And it would be an even more direct reminder of James' own temptations towards infidelity during his wife's illness, when he sees Pyramid Head assaulting the other monsters sexually.
Melody Hines wait so the dried bloodied one is the one who represents James killing his wife in the past and the fresh bloodied one represents James's attempt to run away from his guilt. Cool. I think thats a pretty good symbolism theory.
I love how the tone is more of a "victory" moment but it still has horrible screeching just so you don't forget that what you are fighting are your fears, sins and punishment, that's hiw I see it
Agonising fear, that heavy feeling of dread when someone brings up abuse you suffered and how much it still hurts. But the damage is done, there's nothing to fix, nothing but hatred and sorrow holding you up like burnt match sticks. You're beyond crying, past feeling sorry for yourself, nothing inside but pain. Blinding, numbing pain, it becomes hard to breath like you're inhaling smoke. The memories and flashbacks swell up like plumes of fire, your skin blisters as you walk further into the light. Fire is all you see, charring and blackening your skin. You can't run away, the memories cloud your judgement and engulf you. Nothing left, ash and soot darken everything, endless black. Nothing left, scattered to the four winds. So what did you think of the song? I'm curious to know, I want to see inside
I am 100% positive that psych students and psychology fanatics enjoyed this music too. I am sure, from this music alone, they were able to create multiple conclusions. Silent Hill 2 is a masterpiece. The best "Psychological Horror" game for me.
I will always love this track. I may be reading too much into it, but I always saw it as an auditory manifestation of what James had been through. At last, he came to terms with his guilt and what he did, and now he was ready to put it to rest. Despite this, the fact that it had previously happened can never be erased from his mind, and that same tragedy will always have happened, but he is on top.
Even if it's just a game, to be able to triumph over the greatest obstacle ever in your life- to literally face and overcome the rival of your destiny, in order to understand your destiny... that concept is just so chilling. I just completed Silent Hill 2 for the first time few days ago, and it was just so intense I haven't been able to stop thinking about it. This, in my opinion, is peak storytelling.
This soundtrack strangely gives me alot of nostalgia because of the way it sounds. Every time i listen to it I think back to my old elementary and middle school days and even preschool. Im a sophomore now and listening to this after im out of high school will be even more sad.
That organ/keyboard/whatever it is... It just gives me chills whenever I hear it; such a weird sensation I can't even explain. It almost reminds me of Soul Reaver 2's light and air forge, along with the final part of the fire one. It's almost like hearing one's life sufferings coming to a realization - it's the truth in its pure form. Just beautiful
Honestly, I like the version we have now. Betrayal, to me, feels kind of like a “final” type piece of music. Like youre done running and you’re facing your demons. In dbd, you’re more running from the killer than anything and in my opinion wouldn’t fit
The Game Knight's Bestiary Silent Hill Demons Pyramid Head Height: 6 foot, approx. Weight: Unknown Description Pyramid Head seems to be a high-ranking entity in the hierarchy of the demonic creatures that infest Silent Hill, Maine. A strange, perverse entity, he has a sickening desire to punish the sins of the townsfolk. I unfortunately know little else of this depraved demon. Physical Appearance In its physical appearance, he resembles a muscular man with a strange robe covering it's lower torso. But the most obvious and admittedly disturbing trait is that he wears a triangular, pyramid-shaped helmet, made of a strange ore I haven't seen in any game world. This helmet is the reason this entity is known as Pyramid Head. Personality This depraved and sickening creature lives to punish guilty humans in a disturbing and warped myriad of ways. He tends to manifest and revel in tormenting those who deserve punishment, by using more symbolic means as well as physical. His favorite method, to my horror, is to appear with a female Silent Hill demon and appeat to "assault" it to punish depraved sexual frustration, and push them along towards the next perverse punishment of the victims sins. But it serves to have the victim come to realize their guilt, crime and then repent for their sins. Noble, but a sickening way to go about it. Abilities: Teleportation(?) Superhuman strength Ability to sense guilt and sins Telepathic sight Hierarchy The Pyramid Head that James Sunderland fought seems to be the head of an entire species of Pyramid Heads. These executioners, also called Bogeymen, serve the same role as their patriarch. Tactics This demon and his spawn(?) tend to be rather slow, BUT they can sometimes be surprisingly quick. Because of his superhuman strength, he tends to wield a giant sword, oft called the Great Knife, with one hand, though it still requires effort. When he want's to fight faster, he wields the Great Spear, a staff that has sharp points on both ends. Both do immense damage, but are unwieldy for even him to use. In spite of being a demon, he is quite susceptible to conventional weaponry. He takes an unfortunately IMMENSE amount of damage before he can be defeated, though, so be careful. Strafe and run quickly, and you should have little trouble in vanquishing him. Most important, though, is this: REPENT. Pyramid Head hunts only thouse that have repressed guilt about horrible crimes and other darknesses within the soul. You admit your guilt, he won't come back to try and punish you. He may be twisted, but he doesn't go after innocents.
Note: when pyramid head was hunting a corrupt officer he killed those in his way swiftly and made let's say "example" of his intended target. most likely a message
@@StronkKronk16 Yeah you right. However the town it is based on is actually in central PA and is named Centralia. Even the history of silent hill matches the towns. For the most part anyways.
Unfortunately, I've never played any of the Silent Hill games. I will say, however, that after finding out what it really was, I have to put this game up there with Amnesia for defining what horror really means in a game. Outlast presented to us unfiltered explicity that tore our minds apart. Amnesia presented to us atmosphere and a monster we couldn't look at, but saw just enough to fear. Silent Hill presented to us the fear of what's inside of us, and I think, regardless of graphics, revenue, or budget, that is truly the most frightening; because while you may never walk into an insane asylum with sociopaths, or try to kill an extra-dimensional being who made you perform ritual sacrifices, you'll always face the reality of escaping and coping with the sins of your past. ~Ken
>I never played any of these games but I'll proudly make an opinion about them whilst discussing non-games that helped to ruin horror even worse than Re4 did
Everytime I get to this boss it's like a duality of sorts. Both peace and misery existing all at once. This music seems to personify that, you have come to terms with your sins and your misery. They both kind of blend together. And you just drown in them. This music used to scare me. But no it simply makes me feel empty.
I like this alot; To me, the melody feels like healing by accepting the truth it and at the same time, the sounds of grinding and grating machinery is you finding it so hard to do it.
the brilliance of the pendulum clock sounds gave me the feeling it was the final boss fight, or maybe it sounds like repeated church bells. it's like time has stopped at the moment of redemption...
A little too powerful. He's the only killer than is able to perform his "final judgment" on his prey without having any objects or skills. I guess he extremely likes to punish the guilty.
The fog’s Entity recognize that he might come face to face with PH. Therefore, the Entity realized that he needs to please PH for making him punish the sinners over and over again. PH can punish the entity if he wanted
@@the-expertstreetb-racer5832 There is a theory that PH is punishing the entity, by not following his rules and not using hooks and executing instead of sacrificing. He is basically starving the entity in a way since the entity needs those sacrifices and hooks to live.
@markjackson5333 I know your comment is a year old but Masaharo Ito implied that the 9 save points represent the 9 monsters James faces in the game - Lying Figures, Mannequins, Bobblehead Nurses, Flesh Lips, Mandarins, Abstract Daddy, Creepers, Maria, and Pyramid Head.
For some odd reason I see pyramid head as my Guardian angel. The protector, and collector of all the negative things of life I have experienced and will. And for that purpose he will defend me from being murdered by someone else, so more negative things life has to offer can be collected. And when the day comes that I die he will be waiting for me, to guide me safely towards the afterlife for my eternal rest. as a "thank you" for his collection of negative things, when I was still alive. before he goes to find a new person to protect, and collect now from. or he stays/becomes this angel again if I ever got reincarnated so he can go back to the whole circle of collecting negativity again.
_Yo era débil, por eso te necesitaba; necesitaba a alguien que me castigara por mis pecados, pero eso ya ha terminado; sé la verdad; terminemos con esto de una vez por todas._ - James comprendiendo el verdadero propósito del monstruo Pyramid Head.
Let's just say I have a little bit of a sleeping problem and I noticed when I'm actually playing this it actually helps I heard ambient noise actually helps you go to sleep honestly so I would let this play in it would help me sleep seriously
The fascinating thing about Silent Hill is that each person can interpret it for themselves. In Silent Hill the notion of reality is constantly called into question, the brutality of this universe is not free, but the element that pushes us to die; pursued to be reborn pure. The darkness of Silent Hill is a blinding light.
Well, if you listen to it with the intent of finding out the mood it conveys... It's both unsettling and terrifying, even with the slow pace, and it fills one with dread and terror. ...But it's also... _So somber, so sad and depressing._ There's a massive, melancholy overtone, one that makes the song both more unsettling and gut-wrenchingly heartbreaking. _Fear..._ *And Sorrow...*
I can see the two different stock footage glass shatter patterns they used for the pic and the fact that they both are not at the same perspective is driving me insane
Behold!! A Man has become like one of us... knowing good and evil! For it is said.. “Whoever believes in the Son has Eternal Life, Whoever does not believe in the son does not have eternal life but the Wrath of God Remains in them..”
You gotta keep in mind people are listening to this while running for their lives in the game, and the machine sound constantly reminds you of the giant metal cleaver dragging after you.
It's not intended to be scary. It's a boss fight theme that takes place after the main character has overcome his fear, well more so guilt, but fear of his past and future. The soundtrack can be scary when it needs to be, but most times, it's calming or just sad.
Listening to this kinda makes me sad that Silent Hill 2 didn't have more Other World environments. It is one of the few big complaints about the series.
This should have been AT LEAST the menu music for Pyramid Head, but I guess I understand they wanted dead by daylight vibes to it and the menu music is the same for everyone except with different themes in it.

Ever since I seen this. “Thing” I will never forget the sound of metal dragging against the floor.
Agonising fear, that heavy feeling of dread when someone brings up abuse you suffered and how much it still hurts.

The Game Knight's Bestiary
Silent Hill Demons
Pyramid Head
Height: 6 foot, approx. Weight: Unknown
Description
Pyramid Head seems to be a high-ranking entity in the hierarchy of the demonic creatures that infest Silent Hill, Maine. A strange, perverse entity, he has a sickening desire to punish the sins of the townsfolk. I unfortunately know little else of this depraved demon.
Physical Appearance
In its physical appearance, he resembles a muscular man with a strange robe covering it's lower torso. But the most obvious and admittedly disturbing trait is that he wears a triangular, pyramid-shaped helmet, made of a strange ore I haven't seen in any game world. This helmet is the reason this entity is known as Pyramid Head.
Personality
This depraved and sickening creature lives to punish guilty humans in a disturbing and warped myriad of ways. He tends to manifest and revel in tormenting those who deserve punishment, by using more symbolic means as well as physical. His favorite method, to my horror, is to appear with a female Silent Hill demon and appeat to "assault" it to punish depraved sexual frustration, and push them along towards the next perverse punishment of the victims sins. But it serves to have the victim come to realize their guilt, crime and then repent for their sins. Noble, but a sickening way to go about it.
Abilities:
Teleportation(?)
Superhuman strength
Ability to sense guilt and sins
Telepathic sight
Hierarchy
The Pyramid Head that James Sunderland fought seems to be the head of an entire species of Pyramid Heads. These executioners, also called Bogeymen, serve the same role as their patriarch.
Tactics
This demon and his spawn(?) tend to be rather slow, BUT they can sometimes be surprisingly quick.
Because of his superhuman strength, he tends to wield a giant sword, oft called the Great Knife, with one hand, though it still requires effort. When he want's to fight faster, he wields the Great Spear, a staff that has sharp points on both ends. Both do immense damage, but are unwieldy for even him to use.
In spite of being a demon, he is quite susceptible to conventional weaponry. He takes an unfortunately IMMENSE amount of damage before he can be defeated, though, so be careful. Strafe and run quickly, and you should have little trouble in vanquishing him.
Most important, though, is this: REPENT. Pyramid Head hunts only thouse that have repressed guilt about horrible crimes and other darknesses within the soul. You admit your guilt, he won't come back to try and punish you. He may be twisted, but he doesn't go after innocents.

You're guilty.
Who ya suffocated with a pillow?
You've got some sins to repent my friend.
I like this alot; To me, the melody feels like healing by accepting the truth it and at the same time, the sounds of grinding and grating machinery is you finding it so hard to do it.
I was so disappointed that the OST didn't had the machinery SFX, it adds a very haunting touch, thanx.
When your world is crumbling all around you only to realiz its only your mind
the brilliance of the pendulum clock sounds gave me the feeling it was the final boss fight, or maybe it sounds like repeated church bells. it's like time has stopped at the moment of redemption...
Perfect timing for drawing a Pyramid head picture
Very atmospheric boss music
It gives a feeling of tragedy and really fits a final boss
This one seems stronger than the others, The Entity will be pleased to see his new plaything.
A little too powerful. He's the only killer than is able to perform his "final judgment" on his prey without having any objects or skills. I guess he extremely likes to punish the guilty.
@@squeakythecat1076 But I love the way he simply slashes you once and imagine hearing a voice trough the helmet going "Ok I'm sick of your shit".
@@ASH_HYPES_ALONE yep, that's how he is
The fog’s Entity recognize that he might come face to face with PH. Therefore, the Entity realized that he needs to please PH for making him punish the sinners over and over again. PH can punish the entity if he wanted
@@the-expertstreetb-racer5832 There is a theory that PH is punishing the entity, by not following his rules and not using hooks and executing instead of sacrificing. He is basically starving the entity in a way since the entity needs those sacrifices and hooks to live.
So many memories... the nine save points, the way they commit suicide, the long walk down that hall...
Yeah what's with the 9 save points
@@markjackson5333 The devs saying "your ass better save" is what I always heard.
@markjackson5333 I know your comment is a year old but Masaharo Ito implied that the 9 save points represent the 9 monsters James faces in the game - Lying Figures, Mannequins, Bobblehead Nurses, Flesh Lips, Mandarins, Abstract Daddy, Creepers, Maria, and Pyramid Head.
Recommandation from youtube after his release of silent hill announcement on Dead by daylight.
For some odd reason I see pyramid head as my Guardian angel.
The protector, and collector of all the negative things of life I have experienced and will.
And for that purpose he will defend me from being murdered by someone else, so more negative things life has to offer can be collected.
And when the day comes that I die he will be waiting for me, to guide me safely towards the afterlife for my eternal rest. as a "thank you" for his collection of negative things, when I was still alive. before he goes to find a new person to protect, and collect now from.
or he stays/becomes this angel again if I ever got reincarnated so he can go back to the whole circle of collecting negativity again.
Interesting take on the guardian angel trope and it sounds like movie material Imo.
wtf.
This guy is high as fuck
Edgy
Sounds like a poem ngl
_Yo era débil, por eso te necesitaba; necesitaba a alguien que me castigara por mis pecados, pero eso ya ha terminado; sé la verdad; terminemos con esto de una vez por todas._ - James comprendiendo el verdadero propósito del monstruo Pyramid Head.
Exacto
Let's just say I have a little bit of a sleeping problem and I noticed when I'm actually playing this it actually helps I heard ambient noise actually helps you go to sleep honestly so I would let this play in it would help me sleep seriously
The fascinating thing about Silent Hill is that each person can interpret it for themselves. In Silent Hill the notion of reality is constantly called into question, the brutality of this universe is not free, but the element that pushes us to die; pursued to be reborn pure. The darkness of Silent Hill is a blinding light.
This helps me sleep 😴
The English language is ill equipped to describe the feeling this song gives me
Just use screaming, that usually conveys the message in all languages
bruh same
Well, if you listen to it with the intent of finding out the mood it conveys...
It's both unsettling and terrifying, even with the slow pace, and it fills one with dread and terror.
...But it's also... _So somber, so sad and depressing._
There's a massive, melancholy overtone, one that makes the song both more unsettling and gut-wrenchingly heartbreaking.
_Fear..._ *And Sorrow...*
As haunting as it seems this music is just genius
The theme of battling your personal demons
That sound of him dragging that Giant Knife around.
Leave her alone
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHG
LEAVE US BOTH THE HELL ALONE!!!
Leave my elevator alone.
I was weak.
I hope they use this in the remake
How we feelin, bois?
The metallic background noises are awesome
This sums up where I'm at in life.
I come here whenever i feel hurt by someone i care about, and somehow it relaxes me
1:17
Ewerybody end lisend this song know how life is hard end hardeest wait for silent hill 2 remake only for PS5 end pc excelent for you im waiting
I can see the two different stock footage glass shatter patterns they used for the pic and the fact that they both are not at the same perspective is driving me insane
I need this to be the chase music for him in DBD
That would sound very VERY weird…
@@KamilSupinski41 they could prob edit it to make it fit as chase music
@@EvilDebt2 There are many songs you could turn into a chase theme but this is 100% not one of them lol.
@@KamilSupinski41 a fan can dream
I feel like this is the music that would play if you ever managed to lay eyes apon a Lovecraftian creature.
Behold!! A Man has become like one of us... knowing good and evil! For it is said..
“Whoever believes in the Son has Eternal Life, Whoever does not believe in the son does not have eternal life but the Wrath of God Remains in them..”
What is human
What is this line from?
Shitting yesterdays chili and beer rn, torture
It's like watching everything around you burn, no escape
Thank you
You are welcome :)
Playback at 0.75x speed somehow makes this more unsettling at some intervals in the track.
God I gotta play Silent Hill...
love the song,love the game
ah yes this brings back memories
good music, very tasteful
Triangle-Man, Triangle-Man,
Triangle-Man hates Person-Man,
They have a fight, Triangle wins.
Nobody knows Triangle-Man.
I love him 💟💟💟💟💟💟💟
Pyramid Head won't move anymore.
And I thought this was the final boss fight, probably due to the music and sound effects. It’s just too much for me to take in.
James...James...James...
I use this music to go to sleep,am i weird?
Rodrigo Araújo no that not weird
The weirdest and coolest . . . Other than that, it makes sense. Idk, but I find it low pacing and soothing.
No not weird, until you dream of what he sees or experiences... sweet dreams
Despite the mechanical sounds, the song is strangely calming
Yes.
Black fairy just hit so prefect after Betrayal
I don’t find this theme particularly scary. Granted I’ve never played the game, I just think this sounds cool
You gotta keep in mind people are listening to this while running for their lives in the game, and the machine sound constantly reminds you of the giant metal cleaver dragging after you.
It's not intended to be scary. It's a boss fight theme that takes place after the main character has overcome his fear, well more so guilt, but fear of his past and future. The soundtrack can be scary when it needs to be, but most times, it's calming or just sad.
Sir Punchnut i always see it on top scariest video game songs so I thought it was supposed to be scary
cloud doesnt have too much trouble with his sword, a little showing of this guy in my fanfic
pyramid head could fit perfectly for a cameo
This should have been pyramid heads chase theme in dead by daylight.
Agree
Man I prefer this music in the original I didn't hear it well in the remake
old but gold
Listening to this kinda makes me sad that Silent Hill 2 didn't have more Other World environments. It is one of the few big complaints about the series.
this some berserk stuff right there
Weird if you remember that people didn't like it that much when it released in 2001. Tool the public view a few months/years to understand the game
They need to make this backwards compatible for the Xbox one and the original one not the remake since I saw original Xbox games in the store
The hd collections is backwards compatible
Utter genious
Does anyone know what the notes of the background vocal choir are???
I wish this was on spotify
It kinda sounds like a saw in the background.
Okay why the fuck wasn't this used in DbD as chase music, it's brilliant.
I disagree, while this is a great song it doesn't give off that pursuit vibe that the current version has.
@@AxisChurchDevotee it gives off “you are trapped here with me” vibes
I need him in my life
You need an executioner and a Judge?
lovin' it
This should have been AT LEAST the menu music for Pyramid Head, but I guess I understand they wanted dead by daylight vibes to it and the menu music is the same for everyone except with different themes in it.
Angel's sounds like this.
whats the song title on the cd?
This one is better then the original.
