Scadutree Avatar feels like Living Failures in that it didn't get much love upon release but more have come around to it. Such a good track but in a very different way from most of the rest of Bloodborne.
@@grimmarielle7205there is a person called Ninjabox who uploaded the entire OST in its original format and in way higher quality than the other ones out there. He should definitely listen to that one. Those original versions also don’t fade out at the end.
Si discite tibi vis sacramentum, erit praemium sanguine sanctum. Erit praemium sanguine sanctum absconditum; pervenio humanitas splendor perdere. Sanguine sanctum. Omnes cavete: Sanguine est nectareus de blasphemia; respice intra mysterium, te respice intra et bestia; omnes cavete sanguine, est nectareus de blasphemia, quamvis credo possumus; quam-quamvis credo po-possumus.
Ludwig's and Laurence's themes actually have meaningful lyrics in Latin, unlike most other Fromsoftware themes that just have random chanting. The channel Antonius Tertius has lyrics videos for them with translations.
There is one aspect which elevates some Bloodbornes OSTs to a whole other level: lyrics. Looking up the lyrics to The First Hunter always makes me emotional.
Im just realizing that pre-ER music sounds so much better outside of the games because the phase transitions are not tied to a pause between them. They aren’t separated but instead one big piece with a transition precisely arranged inside of the music itself. Of course in game thats not ideal but listening to the music alone its way more enjoyable.
If anyone remembers the scene in Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End, the music playing when Beckett has that moment of realization before his demise that he massively miscalculated. This has a similar feel of a determined force realizing how it has horribly miscalculated. There's intense tragedy and regret. One of my absolute favorite pieces by FromSoft. 😢 Bloodborne features a host of well meaning but misguided characters, none more consequential those of Laurence. Great analysis highlighting the powerful male vocals and religious tonality of the piece. Thanks, Rob.
I mean, if you start going down the DS3 rabbit hole where do you even begin or end, starting from the Main Menu, Vordt, Abyss Watchers, Yhorm, Pontiff, Aldritch, Dragonslayer Armor, Twin Princes, OCEIROS???, Champ Gundyr, shit even Old Demon King for being such a lame boss has a pretty cool theme, Nameless King, Soul of Cinder, and then don't even get me started on the DLCs with Friede, Demon Prince, Midir, Gael. There's probably a bunch more I forgot but just off the dome that's an insane list of tracks that, for all of them, I would unequivocally say is one of the best themes in any game EDIT: I FORGOT DANCER! See I knew there were gonna be some I missed and that's a big one
This one is my favorite Bloodborne soundtrack! It's telling a tragic story, if you know the content and the lyrics make this 10 times better😂 I always got emotional during the Cello solo. I like to picture this part as the last moment before Laurence turn into a beast. You could almost hear the pain and regret of Laurence for what he'd done.
I'm glad i'm not the only one. It's the combination of sadness and majesty, that paints the story of a man who wanted to save the world but ended condemning it, and himself. This song is how it felt. It's the feeling of your grandiose dreams crumbling down.
The part at 13:07 sounds a lot like the ‘and so he spoke’ part of rains of castomere which is quite interesting. Maybe it’s just a cool melody but still.
Unlike Elden Ring, where the vocals are all some vaguely Latin-ish made up language just to set the mood, Bloodborne's vocals are actual Latin and often tell the story of the bosses (although the musical language From's composers speak in is often enough as-is to piece together their stories)
New to your channel, love what I’m seeing, would love to see the rest of soulsborne as well. Gwyn LoC and Artorias from Dark Souls 1, Sir Alonne and Burnt Ivory King from Dark Souls 2, basically almost every track from Dark Souls 3 bangs, specially the dlc tracks, (but avoid Soul of Cinder and Nameless King till after Gwyn), as for other series, I would very highly recommend some monster hunter tracks, perfectly encompasses masterful composing to really fit the vibe and feel of whatever monster !
@@lynackhilou4865 He's just another Cleric Beast on fire with a boring second phase. You can't even hear the music through his loud screaming and sound effects.
