I love how in the beginning it sounds almost disjointed and random, like a single insect scuttling around minding his own business, but once Bombshell and Skrapnel show up, it gets a discernible riff and that awesome melody. Like the hive has been stirred, and has come together with one mind to focus on a single enemy.
Considering the lack of feats the Insecticons actually have in terms of power the Devastation Insecticons might be their most powerful iterations since they can hold their own against Optimus and Grimlock. And canonically can take on all 5 Autobots at once in a fight

That bit that starts at 1:11 is so good like what the hell I know its Platinum Games but its a licensed transformers game for Christ's sakes you did not have to go so hard.
Optimus: whos next Bombshell: I’ll take this dance Kickback: no bombshell report back to Megatron he’s mine Bombshell: your the boss Kickback: maybe I misjudged you you are like a decepticon after all
+Commander Convoy Well here is a fun fact. The folks who made the soundtrack for this game also made the soundtrack for Revengance so its not surprising if some of the music sounds similar to that game.
AnthonyTheAwesome500 ...what? You said the same people made the soundtrack, and I said they didn't because they didn't. I didn't say anything about "taking inspiration".
I actually managed to SS rank Shrapnel, Bombshell and Kickback (plus the sequence where they tag team you ) simply by using a sniper rifle and aiming for their heads since it does a fair amount of damage. However I was doing this on Warrior, so sadly loot drops won’t be god-like, but it works.
I freaking love this ost! The Insecticons' theme has got to be my second favourite because of that intro, with the rest perfectly blending in and that sudden silence at the end of the piece. My top is Starscream's theme. I have yet to play the game itself since I don't have a console. I only play on PC, mobile, and Switch, sometimes Wii but it's very dusty. I do not wish to watch a playthrough because one day I want to play it for myself to get the full experience. I always love the music style from Transformers, it's always that crazy fast- kind of rockish, metalish style with the robotic jingle and electric guitar tune. I was always so fond for true intense- not crazy intense like too much screaming and screeching- just something you can really, truly enjoy aspect kind of intense.
Something interesting about this song that I really enjoyed, was how there are twitches and buzzes in the song like insects. Very intriguing and cool, just pure awesome
Fall of Cybertron Kickback's dialogue was just him repeating the end of his sentences three times. e.g. "is it something to eat eat eat?" "oh, you won't get by me me me."
We need an insecticons combiner. Of course, sense there are only 3 of them, they couldn't make a giant robot like the others. This is why I think they should have a beast mode combined form and make a giant insect. Also it should be called Hivemind.
According to Kenji Saito, the original plan was for all the songs to have vocals like MGR, but they didn't have enough time and resources to make it happen.
Since then. The 3 were all enhanced thanks to the plasma core. Making them bigger than an autobot. And stronger than an autobot (Not as strong as megatron, Optimus Prime. or the combiners tho). But in terms of physical strength. Super insecticons are the vastly superior versions off the average insecticon.

Someone's favorite transformer growing up was clearly Kickback.
Yup
Phase 1: Kickback's theme
Phase 2: Theme of the Insecticons!
0.75 speed: Waspinator's theme

i was confused when this didn't play for the other 2 but when i started the fight with the first ancient kickback i was like "oh that why he has his own theme" but when you get him to half health the hell really starts i had to restart a lot of times
I think it's because in G1, Kickback seems to be leader of the Insecticons.
“The Insecticons are in our way.”
“Wrong, they’re our way in!”
"Delicious, eh scrap-mate?"
"Eh, a little heavy on the elections-electrons."
Shrapnel wait look in the mirror 🪞we're the size of real bugs 🐛
Kickback then recieves an in-promptu brain surgery
The comment section is mostly just people being absolutely baffled that this banger of a theme goes to the insecticons
What’s that supposed to mean
(This is totally the real bombshell talking)
The whole game's full of bangers.
can't blame them, who knew it would be THE INSECTICONS of all characters to be getting this banger of theme
@@Skylanceras the #1 bombshell fanatic, I am extremely grateful
The Stains of Time vibes are strong with this song.
Kinda reminds me of heat of the desert tbh
You do know both games are made by platinum games
everyone does@@Vergil_sparda1987
I like how when all of the insecticons are present, that's when the theme is at it's best.
"So this is Optimus Prime's terrifying true form?"
Ha ha ha ha ha ha excellent my shrink ray works it shrunk kickback to the size of a real grasshopper
AND IT WILL COME
@@MrbackblowerLIKE A FLOOD OF PAIN, POURING DOWN ON ME

How can one track slap harder than the entirety of Dark Souls, and why is it for Kickback?!
Fun fact: this was made by the same studio that did Nier: Automata, Bayonetta, and Metal Gear Rising
metal gear eh?
well that explains it
THEY GAVE THE BUG A KICK(back)ASS THEME
This sound like monsoon theme.
it was made by their b team not their main team that worked on them
The bayonetta inspo is definitely there
The part when Bombshell and Skrapnel join the fight is beautiful
Like 2 voices merged in perfect harmony
"We have won this!"
AND IT WILL COME
They didn't have to go so hard on this soundtrack. 2:06 has no right to be an absolute banger.
It totally can. It needs no entitlement.
Kickback jumps over the statue of liberty

Nah bro, the fact that it is a licensed Transformers game is why it needed to go hard
It's precisely BECAUSE it's a Transformers game that it shreds so hard. In particular, a G1 Transformers game.
This image captures the song perfectly
The theme that transforms when you do. I love that so much.

You said the same people made the soundtrack, and I said they didn't because they didn't. I didn't say anything about "taking inspiration".
This should be a mini boss in Super Smash Bros Ultimate called the call of the “Insecticons”
