Man... I love 'End Of Small Sanctuary".. Such a simple song, played in a really short part of the game... but it's insanely perfect... Could listen to it all day *-*
I love that theme. I really like the beginning of this game and how it starts completely normally and builds up to the sh Horror we all know and love. I'm not really sure how to describe it but I really like the atmosphere and "vibe" of the Portland part of SH3.
"A Stray Child" is extremely underrated. The intro doesn't begin to describe what the rest of the track is going to be like and that really makes the entire rest of it stand out. God, Yamaoka is an Ambient genius.
I really like the part right around 1:00:00 after all...There's a reason the cult does all these terrible things. They would only do it for a great reward. Hearing their story about "paradise" with perhaps the most soothing music of the entire series is oddly hypnotic...It shows you why the cult does what they do. Even if they're terribly wrong.
I just saw the Silent Hill band at San Japan the other day. Mary Mcgylnn was super charismatic and sweet; she still sings like an angel, too. She and Mr. Yamaoka had such great chemistry. There were two other dudes, the drummer and bass player. I'm sad I can't remember their names, but the bass player was Japanese and the drummer was Mexican. They were all crazy-talented. I SUPER reccomend going to see them play live if they show up at a con in your area. They started up the show with air raid sirens... then the lights went out. Instant chills. :D
***** Googling "Silent Hill Band" will get you a list of appearances they're planning. They travel all over, so maybe they'll play at a con where you live? :)
SOMA is pretty smart. Tackles a philosophical question, albeit nothing original. But yeah, there's not a lot of art in games nowadays. Games have devolved back to being mindless cesspools of gore and explosions - see DooM 2016. And they score well, because people are fucking stupid.
Doom 2016 is a good shooter game, don't pretend those kinds of game weren't coming out in 2005. You're taking one example, comparing it to a completely different genre, and you're saying that games nowadays are stupid because of it. Did you even look at the indie fucking scene? Lone Survivor? Fran Bow? You even mentioned SOMA. Also, Dark Souls works fantastically like a horror game in the initial 1st playtrough. There are tons of games to marvel at when it comes to them being smart, creative or being presented as legitimate pieces of art, you just have to know where you look, and looking at balls to the wall 1st person shooters is a bad start.
+Ridley On Steroids late 90'sto early 2000's : Legacy of Kain series, Drakan, Thief series, Gothic series, TES 3, Silent Hill series, Resident Evil 123, Half Life, System Shock, Warcraft 3, Diablo 12, Prince of Persia series, and a bunch of others I can't think of at the moment. 2010-present : The Witcher 23, Bio Shock Infinite, Dark Souls 1 and Bloodborne. That's it. And LIMBO and Ori for art style. I mentioned SOMA, but that's a forced call. It was decent, but only because I have learned to lower my expectations. Lone Survivor?! Pffft. Finished it. Rubbish 'would be' artistic game. Sorry, ripping off Silent Hill and resident evil in a sidescroller is not smart nor original.
I wouldn't say "so underwhelming". But you still make a solid point. Fairly underwhelming is how I would describe it. A lot of our feelings is just nostalgia. We were younger and more impressionable back then so this stuff hit us harder than it would right now. BUT Clearly the 90s up to about 2010 was the golden age of gaming where you saw the most risks get taken and the most creative/innovative game experiences go down. So it's not all just nostalgia. It was a time where gaming was just that good. For obvious reasons. More attention to detail and memorable games. Less focus on wallet rape. What's new today? Some more perfected vr and dirty corporate micro transaction schemes to fuck gamer wallets over? OOO I'm so impressed lol. You're seeing a lot of broken unfinished launches too. Even with big ass games like cyber punk. You didn't see mario 64 launch all fucked up. Just sayin... You can play the remakes and remasters. Games like last of us franchise are very good. Outlast indie type games still kick ass. BUT... You still have a point. Something special about gaming is lost these days. And that something was a closer attention to the gamer's experience. Today it's less about that and more about fucking us over financially... I think the ps1 and ps2 era horror games from resident evil, fatal frame, and silent hill over all OWN the horror game genre. I'd be shocked to see something come along in todays world that makes those old games look like shit by comparison. That being said though... A lot of what resident evil village has shown us looks pretty dope. I'm game : )
I was born in 1995 so I didn't really get a chance to play the Silent Hill games at the time, but I LOVE the game's soundtracks. The songs are hip, stylish, emotional, and I never get tired of listening to them. I even learned to play a few songs on the piano.
They've come to witness the beginning. The rebirth of Paradise despoiled by mankind. Remember me, and your true self as well. Also, that which you must become: the one who will lead us to Paradise with *blood stained hands*.
End of small sanctuary 7:53 es increible. Empezas el juego estas en el baño publico del centro comercial y solo se pueden tener miles de sensaciones como una mescla de nostalgia con esperanza que te da fuerza a empezar con todo ese juegazo.
I remember this game was what introduced me to silent hill. I bought at a game stop while over at my cousin's house. We biked it to the game shop. We just wanted to look at games. Had no plans of buying anything in particular. I bought a used version. And man what an amazing journey. Been like 15 years and I have not ever stopped listening to silent hill music apart from liking the games. It was cool they included a CD of the music along with the game.
I absolutely adore the song "You're Not Here", but I want to point out that "Letter From The Lost Day" and "I Want Love" are also amazing songs as well
Never heard this longer version of Lost Carol before and I have the original soundtrack on cd. Bought an imported Japanese copy from a game shop in Guildford England. It was something like 50 £ but I traded in a bunch of games so didn't have to pay that much. Best purchase I've ever made.
Do you remember an excerpt from your life which resembled the madness of Silent Hill? Loneliness, the loss of someone important, unfulfilled love. Life is full of nightmares. I'm almost 40 years old and music from Silent Hill is with me until now.
TheSilentHillFan666 Heh, I've actually just ordered it on PC today, along with the two Silent Hill films. Watched SH Revelation and decided I wanted to play the game it was based on.
+Ka MiK Here you can watch all cutscene from the game. Trust me if you play silent hill 3 you will be confused. The movie doesnt really explain things like in the game. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QMbNE9Wj6Kw.html
This is probably my favorite video game-themed soundtrack ever. 'You're not here', 'Breeze in Monochrome Night', 'Sickness Unto Foolish', 'Dance with the Night Wind', and 'Rain of Brass Petals' stand out for me. Thanks for uploading this!
AGREED! It was a great game. I liked it more then 1-4 which are the only ones I played. Hell I played them when they were still NEW at the time. Good stuff for their time, but still to this day put many other survival horror's to shame.
Simply amazing soundtrack... Some of the tracks mirror my life and my soul so beautifully... I'm standing, again, at multiple crossroads in my life. I've always been used to change, choice, and living with the consequences of what you do... However, now I am face to face with one of my lifetime dreams... Yes, sometimes they do come true. And I am terribly afraid of not being up to the challenge... For the first time, in so many years, I am very close of fulfilling my dream. But the questions keep pilling up in my head: is it too late? Will I be up to it? Will I be disappointed? What if my dream turns out to be a nightmare? How will I go on, if I wreck my biggest dream? What if the darkness inside me clouds my mind? I'm not sure where I will be one year from know. Maybe deep inside my dream, maybe forever happy... Maybe I'll be a wreck, maybe I've lost all hope and spark and motivation... No matter what, I can't stand still, I have to give it a try. I have to risk it. There is only one constant in my life, and that is that I'm always in motion. A mind, forever voyaging...
+holiggan2008 GO FOR YOUR DREAM, I HAD ONE ONE TIME AND I LEFT IT BEHIND NOW I WISH I COULD GO BACK, BUT IF I WENT BACK OTHER THINGS WOULD CHANGE, SO PLEASE GO GO GO GO FOR IT.
You end up in a trance of your own mind when listening to this, you remember your childhood memories, this game especially awakens some part of my childhood/soul, like it is the definition of gaming during the late 2000s
brooo i feel you. Everytime i lisen to you're not here. Or too End Of Small Sanctuary. I always think about the summer times where the sun was shining in my room and i was playing silent hill 3 all day long :D
@@TheSilentHillFan Yeah, these games despite their emotional horror were comforting and resonated with me alot as a kid. The Silent Hill trilogy made me love music and phsychology. Thank you for uploading this my fellow Silent Hill fan. I Wish you the best in life :)
I found out about silent hill after I heard “lost carol” used in a new grounds animation called “moonlight” in 2004. The vocals were so otherworldly and haunting that I bought the game from CompUSA the same day. Beaten it a few times over the years, everything about the game carries this eerie nostalgia for me.
I know you made this comment a long time ago but I just had to say that I identify very much with what you said. Used to fall asleep to this soundtrack as well. And if you like this stuff you should check out Disparition. His music is very Silent Hill. Or the record label Cryo Chamber. They are a dark ambient and drone label and have released some amazingly atmospheric and cinematic records.
When this album came out years ago shortly after the movie came out on dvd, I use to not be able to go to sleep at night without listening to this album while trying to go to sleep! over and out
+MarcsLab She is miserable, she lived 3 lives where she was tortured to death the first 2 lives and burned alive 2 times and she remembers it all... how can she not be miserable? But, even so she still looks miserably sexy idk why but she just does.
Yeah I agree with Kistune Sama. But also, if you look at her from a metaphorical view in this game alone, she's a teenager. I played this game when I was 17/18. Perhaps this game can also symbolize her growth from teen to adult. She's lived with her dad, relied on him for her whole life, is afraid of strangers, not to mention a lot of the monsters are phallic and she's pregnant with a demon anti-christ. I can relate so much with her cuz as a teenage girl or teenager/young adult in general, you're afraid of loosing your parents, experimenting or being confident with your sexuality and growing up with responsibility ^^ I love Heather! and this game!
All these years later I still listen to You're Not Here like it was just released. This was definitely the best soundtrack for Silent Hill and definitely up there as top for any game. It was haunting, fast, and moody.
+ministryOFmuff I will grant you that i'ts scarier, but SH2 was a stand alone game, to get everything in SH3 you need to play the original (that to be honest hasn't aged very well) so more people remember 2. But yeah i think 3 is scarier and 2 is a more sad game.
Silent Hill 2 has a beautiful story. It explores many realms of the human psyche: from acceptation, to denial, to guilt... you name it. It definitely has a light of its own.
Regardless of the release of another Silent Hill game, I think it would be beyond legendary if Akira, Mary Elizabeth, and Chelsea Wolfe wrote an album together. I would die.
@@mr.rad96 Yeah. It was on Yhe Alligator Hour, a radio show hosted by Josh Homme from Queens of the stone age. It also had some other cool stuff like.....
Ha pasado tanto tiempo desde que juegue este juego aya por 2010, yo tenia 11 años, he recordado esta canción 7:53 durante años y pensé que no la encontraría, hoy 18/07/2021 a las 03:54 am la encontré, y la uso para hacer un trabajo de autosanacion interta y espiritual muy linda, debo decir que pensé que me daría nostalgia al escucharla cuando la estaba buscando, pero no fue asi. Me parece la canción que resume mi vida, sufrimiento, tristeza, felicidad, traiciones, amores perdidos y amor por mi. Dios los bendiga si existe y si no, hagan el bien sin ego y les ira bien, saludos mi gente hermosa.
Великое произведение музыкального искусства, заключенное внутри не менее великолепного произведения игрового искусства! Жаль нашу любимую Team Silent...
They got both pretty hard PTSD'd, and they understand each others Grief and Pain exactly. I, too, believe the Story of Heather was over for Silent Hill with that. After all, Silent Hill is your personal Hell for you to repent your Sins, with the nice Twist of letting you go after you did lol
If the UFO ending is right, she became a young divorced mother of two kids, not the happiest of endings but this girl lost her only paternal figure in the same week she aborted God, at least she has a normal life.
Nothing will ever touch this game because it was the best one. Nothing will ever touch this ost because it is beautifully destitute. No one will ever understand unless you played it. No one will ever make a masterpiece like Silent Hill 3 again. Nothing will ever stand up against the series and the stories. Never again will you be unsettled and enamored by something like this. No one can fuck with Akira Yamoaka. Bars.
Huge fan since it's release! It was on a short list of creepy games I played before I got a taste of Fatal Frame. The SH3 Soundtrack both awed and terrified me like one was trapped in a dream which turned into a nightmare only to wake up in HELL. On another note, it is a shame they did not continue Heather's tale, since hers was truly the most interesting in the whole series.
OMG I had no idea that Lost Carol was actually that long of a song!! I have learned something beautiful today. The rest of this soundtrack is stunning as well. Thank you for the upload
finished already 80% of my global study of laws this music on the game represent most sadness stress or darkness, but for me at this very moment relax me somehow and let me concentrate harder, thanks again for uploading the whole OST. have a good weekend freind.
Er asmus Silent Hill 2 is the best part. SH 3 is more "to your face" horror, SH 2 had amazing story, even though I hate love stories. Well, if you can call it a love story lol.
@Er asmus ummm.... I think you may have not understood what you said... "Screw Resident Evil"? Are you off your meds? Resident Evil had provided more survival horror experiences and at different angles versus the "safe gaming" technique such as Silent Hill. SH is an amazing game but let's never "screw" Resident Evil. And if I'm not mistaken I do believe Resident Evil "birthed" the platform or path for survival horror. Being as they released years before Silent Hill. I may be wrong about release times but not "who came first".
Holy shit. I used to listen to this cd on headphones as a kid. It came with my game and I loved it! You are the yellow god jujinbauru! Subbed, saved and hit the bell.
