Thank you
No war still rages within
No A Soul Can't Be Cut 😔
No return to ashes 😔
friendly reminder that the composer of this OST is also the composer of ToonTown's soundtrack, which was the only other "big" song project he'd worked on before this.
Clearly he was toon enough
Those gosh darn cogs
God I should get back into TT rewritten...
He had also NEVER done metal before period, which is insane.
We found him guys, we found max0r
This soundtrack came out alongside the game in 2013, at the peak of dubstep's popularity, which is why so many of the tracks are so wub-heavy. It's a testament to the compositions that this album is still considered to be 100% bangers 11 years later.
Also, the lyrics to "Collective Consciousness" are *terrifyingly* prescient.
Of course they are. The systemic issues persist with the system. And in the 10 years since the song was made they became only more alarming and evident.
i would argue that the game is about cyborgs fighting and quite futuristic that the electronic elements of the song a representation of that
@@ITheWalkingDeadI my man
@@ITheWalkingDeadI so this tells me you either didn't play the game or didn't pay attention to the story.
it also matches what senator armstrong plans to do or in other words his idea, or possibly what he thinks of the current situation. all the songs are relative to the characters views and feeling.
Rules of Nature : You’re fighting a building sized robot
I’m My Own Master Now : you’re fighting a dog
A Stranger I Remain : you are fighting a French person

Red Sun : you’re fighting a bald Texan who uses a big pair of scissors
The Only Thing I Know For Real : White Liberian vs Brazilian Samurai

It Has to Be This Way
A song about how Raiden and the final boss of the game have clashing philosophies pushing them. They acknowledge that each have good points but ultimately cannot come to any reconciliation and thus must fight knowing that neither of them have the best answer to fix the problems being experienced.
In the ends they used violence to decide who's right or wrong
@@austinaldy2150 "violence breed violence, but in the end it has to be this way" literally in the lyric.
@@austinaldy2150just like in real life!
@@knightghaleon if you pay attention, Armstrong has no theme song. Collective Consciousness is how Raiden views Armstrong, and It Has To Be This Way is once again Raidens perspective
@@WillyBillyAfton you're right, I think it's because Armstrong is supposed to be a parallel to Raiden
Finally, my persistent asking for this has pulled off! Thanks for this!
Good job to at least 200 of you.
i did NOT expect you to react to metal gear rising ost

@@cheesegrill I’m glad he did. I think I’ve gone through every MGR reaction on RUclips and I need more.
I love how fluid these songs are, as someone who has played this game multiple times its insane to me how well these songs match their bosses. Even to the point that the songs seem to match how each boss dies.
Ray dies being overwhelmed by a greater predator, completely overwhelmed with Raiden's power
Mistral's charm fails to work and she bites off more than she can chew when Raiden outwits her and uses her own weaponry to kill her, stopping her deadly rampage
Monsoon seems to just give up, finally happy to be dead with a smile on his face, his ending is happier than the rest
Sundowner dies as he lives, embodying the cruelty and hate of war and innocence, he meets his end violently and with a almost childlike glee, and for style points, being slashed in half like he did to so many others
Sam dies still confused, he is a man of principle and will, having such a enormous amount of power despite not being augmented, yet he is bested by Raiden and their dance comes to a sudden and powerful end, completely destroying everything Sam believed in
Khamsin dies believing and fulfilling his doctrine of Freedom, that any creature no matter how small being able to claw freedom and power to break the bonds of slavery is a "damn good mutt"
Armstrong's 2 song fight is incredibly complex and masterful. From starting off as exactly the type of tyrant you expect him to be only so much worse. Then ripping away the facade to reveal the ultimately too human man overflowing with hope and ideals who is Raiden's equal in almost every measure. Both bleeding and tearing into each other hoping to create a brighter future for the one's they protect and trying to get humanity to evolve beyond its current ways. Their legendary fight though extremely close, with both giving it their everything, ends with Raiden metaphorically and literally shattering Armstrong's dream by ripping out his heart and crushing it. Showing that despite everything, despite Armstrong's ideals and words, his heart is too soft to really change anything and that he doesn't possess the true will and desire to do what must be done.
yes
Fuck Blade Wolf I guess.

I love that you dont just give it a one-time listen, but instead rewind and reanalyze the entire track! As a long time Metal Gear Solid fan I really appreciate your analysis of one of my favorite video game soundtracks! 🙇
Only if I find more interesting stuff after the first listen. Otherwise I move on to the next song.
The Hot Wind Blowing - Khamsin's theme , also from Metal Gear Rising. please check it out, you won't regret it. 🎸🔥💯
UP🔥🔥
also make sure to listen to A Soul Can't Be Cut (both versions)
This man is correct, Check it out.

For Collective Consciousness, the base drum continues to be played at a fixed tempo the entire time. Almost like a metronome. Hypnotic. It also works with your militaristic ideas as i can be interpreted as marching.

My Favorites From The MGRR OST Have To Be "The Only Thing I Know For Real" "Collective Consciousness" And "It Has To Be This Way"
So the last three unique songs? I mean they are awesome but i love "i'm my own master now" (i think that's how it's called i don't fully remember)
I love The Hot Wind Blowing more than i admit.
Same but i like Red sun and stranger i remain too
am I one of the only people who likes "stains of time", "a stranger I remain", and "the hot wind blowing"?
@@TGWA101 alot of people like stains of time, don't worry. The hot wind blowing is a bit slept on though.
"let me start again to see if I missed something" bro just wants to listen to the song again and again😂
and i dont blame him
1:32:20 - That's right. Dark skies is one of the regular battle theme. You should listen rest of tham as Return to ashes and A soul can't be cut
And don't forget to listen missed boss theme - The hot wind blowing. It's one of the best soundtrack in game.
Boss of this theme was planned as boss in main storyline but it got cut and used as the only boss of one of two DLC
Since no one has said it and I understand your policy on not having time to play games just for the music, I’ll just explain here:
That big break in Rules of Nature is synced up to play right as you begin a quick time event where Raiden parries a sword the size of a city block, and continues over the playable cutscene so it ends right as the boss dies.
MGR’s ost has many cool cues that loop parts and sync during pivotal moments in the boss fights. Tbh though it could easily be understood from simply watching a playthrough of any one boss fight to get the idea, for anyone who does want to check it out.
To add onto this, the fights take place in multiple phases where the boss' moveset and the state of the arena changes, and the music is designed to follow the changes in each one. The boss fights start with the instrumental version of their respective track, and when the second phase of the fight kicks in, so do the lyrics of the song.
Mistral: This ends now!
The Theme: I've finally found what I WAS LOOKING FOR!
@@deanstuart8667 oh my god my ears and I both came in that moment lol. Total eargasm and hype. This game actually made the music part of the fight
I hope you're going to react to "The War Still Rages Withing" too!
It perfectly sums up the theme of the game.
I can also recommend Geoffrey Day's cover of "The Only Thing I know For Real".
He helped on the original soundtrack and even brings back a lot of other musicians who worked of the original song to create this heavier cover.
Yeah, "the war still rages within" is one I expected to be in this video :D
@@StepOne1 what do you expect when mgr fans think only the boss themes exist
That face you do while listening to rules of nature is the actual need inside of you of going out to some workout by the sheer energy the song injects into your brain "Out here only the strong survives"
51:50 "i thought they were gonna transition to the chill part of the song"
That's the magic...there is no chill part of the song
It’s so funny when you said the songthe vocals sounds like national anthem, because this song start playing when Riden is fight actual America Senator Armstrong
ngl I don't think Senator Armstrong is a real person lol
@@gekinatracksuit9710 He's actually based on the 28th senator who's last name was indeed Armstrong.
My source is that I made it the fuck up.
@@rawrbutnoxd9500 Ha! That's a nice one!
@@gekinatracksuit9710 there was a colorado senator named steven armstrong
I'm so glad you loved Collective Consciousness! It's my favorite song on the soundtrack! It's so good.
I definetly recommend the credits song "The War Still Rages Within", the melangcholic theme is the perfect completion of the long journey the game offers you.
idk if anyone said so n u caught itwhile this was streaming
but the composer for this previously did toontown online, so, pretty insane difference there xD
I had A Stranger I Remain on loop for days when I played this game for the first time. Great freaking song.
13:26 There actually is an acoustic intro for this.
Yea, it's a shame he didn't play that one instead.
@@SapunMan that version used to be my favorite, but i cannot find it anymore on youtube. I had it saved to a playlist, but it seems to have been privated :(
I love the time you gave to analyize a stranger i remain. I feel like of the boss themes it often gets overlooked but i feel it has some of the most interesting musical elements

You missed this.

I love watchng musicions react to music cause I could not tell if he still liked Collective Consciousness during the song just by looking at his face lmao. Ive almost began to learn by watching various other musicion reactors
As great as every single track is, Collective Consciousness might also be my favorite lol. I love the demo version too which sounds very different but also awesome, much lighter on the wubstep with different lyrics and more abrasive vocals. Stains of Time might be tied with it for me.

A stranger I remain is probably one of my top favorite boss themes Ive ever heard.

Such a masterpiece MG RR was. maaaan i wish we got moooreee. im addicted to that style (boys and girls, any recommendations?)
I don't even care about the fact that he's reacting this i just want another reason to listen to these bangers
Great songs, great reactions and analyses
Stains of Time is my absolute favorite.
"It has to be this way"...still is my favorite cause when u play the game and get to that point u would understand it better( story wise) and its just feels awesome listening to it while kicking the last boss ass in the game
aw I keep on missing these streams. That's what I get for being Aussie, hope you are doing well dude
I remember buying the PS3 disc in 2014 and playing it for like 20 minutes...still not understanding the parry system...and grinding through the first level or two. That soundtrack summoned my younger and now dormant 'Beavis and Butthead' self- and it was an F'ing awesome soundtrack! For some reason I didn't play or finish the game, and just picked it up again recently to play through. It was one of the only games that had that kind of soundtrack that phased in with the gameplay!
I don't know why this game has been blowing up recently. The world is finally catching up, huh.
27:28 If you haven't learned blocking while fighting Blade Wolf, you definitely gonna learn it here!

Oh man, I'm going to have a blast watching you react to this bangers, time to ROCK buddy!
OMG you actually noticed Peace Walker in the theme
One of my favorite details is in the beginning of collective consciousness where it sounds like the orchestra/band is booting up, just like the giant mecha that is currently booting up to battle with you. (also underlined by that electric sound getting higher pitched in the background.)

I remember this game i first played when it came out on the Playstation 3, remember about 94% of the trophies completed. Gameplay was more insane than the actual soundtrack.
I love the way the music was handled in this game. Especially the fact that during boss fights the lyrics only start when the boss starts to take you more seriously. My favourite boss that does this is Sam because the first time you fight him he’s not even trying and easily beats you so there is no lyrics at all. But then at the end of the game during your 2nd fight with him his lyrics start immediately showing that’s unlike other bosses he is taking you seriously immediately and not holding back. Speaks a lot about his character too
lets go this is what i've been waiting for!!! great stuff man❤
I like how through all this the chat is just quoting maxor
Love the master sword and hylian shield on the wall
Id love a Hot wind blowing then give a relisten to I'm my own master now compare and contrast. They share thematic elements musically while lyrically are about almost the exact opposite
Perhaps one of the best video game OSTs, all the boss fights were incredible to go along with their songs.
The drummer didnt skip leg day💀💀💀

whats cool is that all the boss musics before this have been all related to the bosses, but it has to be this way is raidens song and his active struggles and mindset, through all hes been through in his past and the current situation in revengeance

This soundtrack is baller but everyone misses the one key thing...
The vocals only ever come in when you're getting the kill.
That's not exactly true. If that was true, you'd have barely any time to enjoy the lyrics. It's sometimes true, but often it's at a critical juncture of the fight.
The vocals for the very last one come in when you have the sword in hand tbh
This is only true for Ray and khamsin.
Bro really listened to "tiene que ser de esta manera"💀🙏🙏
I've heard the overall genre of the soundtrack being referred to as "industrial metal"
I Know I Am 4 Weeks Late but i just realized Something, In "The Only thing i know For Real" Song, One of the Lines are "The man in the Mirror Nods his Head" and If u Listening to that Song it Looks like your Noding Your Head and the Mirror is Literally YOUR SCREAN If this was On Purpose than Jamie Christopherson, Brother is A Genius When it Comes to making Lyrics THAT Good, and also another Fun Fact about The Metal Gear Rising Revengeance OST, All of the boss names are after winds of the world, and all the songs have wind and weather references, THIS MAN IS GOATED!
Not really, it's more about the fact that even Sam himself doesn't recognize himself when looking at the mirror and admitting that no matter what he does, there WILL be bloodshed, and his OWN REFLECTION nods while he probably doesn't, showing he has completely changed as a man from where he started as a crime fighter to the mercenary who kills innocents on a daily basis. Note how he says "the man in the mirror". Saying "the man in (place)" is usually used to refer to someone who's far from being an acquaintance of yours, but he then proceeds to say "in the mirror" which goes to show that the last person he'd recognize now is himself. The only thing i know for real is the best soundtrack in the game, and one of my favorite songs of all times, because even though it's not that special of a concept, a crime fighter turned criminal, it just works SO WELL because of the amount of thought and care put into every single part of Sam's story. Note how Raiden slashed every other boss to pieces, while to Sam he gave a regular human's death with a stab to the chest.
You shold listen to the Forever Winter music, game by Fun Dog Studios, certified bangers for sure!
YO YOU FINALLY DID IT
Playing the game to experience the music is completely different! And I mean it HITS diffrent, you have my word
The instruments used in each song sorta sounds like the weapons thet use, Mistral's polearm sounds like the piano part, Monsoon hits the fastest, Sundowner hits the hardest and Sam's hits echo just like the flute
These musics hits completely different when fighting their related bosses
4:15 i really love this short section.
- Damn, i was to late to suggest hot wind blowing.
Might as well watch all the boss fights to see how the themes are implemented, which is excellently.
Not interested

@@juliuskarki204 I'm sure you are passionate about the games you like, but I am not.
Summary: The vocals start at impactful times in the boss fight improving there impact.
The important part of these songs Is the vocals only start at specific points in the boss fight. that makes them feel much more impactful like the most played part of Rules of Nature Is always played at a specific point during a QTE event end to give a feeling of impact to the player and the other tracs all are unique In when they start or when a specific part plays as I believe In the Sam fight He only uses some attacks at a specific part in the track ( I can be incorrect )
Yup. Also in Armstrong fight at end of the game, the lyrics stop when you are disarmed.
Can you do Viego champion theme, and pyke champion theme?
Fun part is the whole ost tells the story of each bosses
