@@blackpanther3676 wasn’t comparing them. These are metal covers of the soundtrack, I’m saying that song is the closest to metal on the actual movie soundtrack.
Honestly I wouldn't mind more Dune RTS with the old CnC-style gameplay. Even more so if the soundtrack is a mix of the old industrial metal and the modern more alien/ethnic sounding themes.
Exactly my thoughts, listen to David Arkenstone's House Harkonnen OST from Emperor: Battle for Dune, it is awesome (e.g. The Machine). It was a very cool game from the RTS masters Westwood studios. Each house had their own specific, unique soundtrack, The Harkonnen was metal, Atreides was sublime war songs, Ordos was sneaking Acid/DnB/techno.
@@mikerowave1986Emperor Battle for Dune was my absolute favorite RTS when I was a kid. I still play it every few months and just finished the Harkonnen campaign. Absolutely legendary soundtracks
ofc man. hans zimmer outdid himself with this super dark arrangement and tonality. this is an amazing adaptation, feels completely natural. thank you guys
I like Hans too but most of this soundtrack has been recycled from previous compositions of his. The Holy War theme (the low pitched, ominous synth/string motif, not sure of the exact instrument) is just a pitch varied version of the Harvey Dent theme in TDK. The Battle themes are from Gladiator which the man admitted himself. Hans has some bangers and I have listened to all of his soundtracks, but all of his soundtracks post 2010 lacked variety and the soul of 'A Dark Knight', 'Now I am free' or his Last Samurai suite. He's either gone Philip Glass (as he did with Dune, Interstellar and Inception.) or just recycled his previous themes. The only exception is BvS, which has all that's wrong with modern Zimmer but it's still unique and beautiful in its own way.
Majestic work. Not only is this a superb translation of the Dune score to metal, but it's some of the most awesome prog-metal I've heard in a long time.
@@crowkangithere is no DT influence in here for me. DT always has been recycling characteristics from other bands pretty much 1:1. They are not the originators of any of the sounds presented in this vid
Considering that a distorted electric guitar serves as the main solo instrument in the original score, transforming it into an entirely metal track should be easier than most classical-metal conversions. Still excited to hear what it sounds like, though.
That is epic sound, guys, it has volume, harmony, tells a story with tension and release, and it is not pretentious. It is just it. Amazing transcription.
In the Dune soundtrack for part one the House Atreides bagpipes in the very beginning when they get to Arrakis is actually an electric guitar immitating a bagpipe. This is before the chorus of actuall bagpipes comes in.
I’v seen Hans Zimmer twice live in concert, and experiencing his music live is like standing on mount Sinai in the burning presence of almighty God as He carves the Ten Commandments. It’s amazing I’ve survived.
Speaking from the name of everyone here, please make this entire album and super master; my soul needs this so badly! Want this in lossless in my ears🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I saw the length of this video and was like "Oh great, a 9 minute video where they talk about how they made it. Let me just skip to-oshi it's everything but the Bagpipe Song." King shit, right there. Or should I say... Emperor?
I just can't stop listening to Your performances! I didn't think that Hans Zimmer's Oscar-winning music could be even better, but it is. Your performance is H.Z. on steroids. ;) It makes it perfect!
This is great! Great cover songs. Hans Zimmerman should collaborate with ya'll for the next movie. 100% not gonna happen, but I want Paul to be riding a huge worm and your band playing his score.
Thanks a lot! We tried to make it as epic as possible indeed ;) I do love Dream Theater, even though their last couple of albums have been underwhelming imo, but they have been a huge influence for all of us - Flavien
Really enjoyed this! It's so well put together that I can see Lisan al Gaib himself proudly head banging to this on a cool and beautiful night on Arrakis, while riding a Shai-Hulud and being high on spice. 🤟
Simply wonderful! Zimmer+you= Death and Dream theatre togheter! Marvelously impressive! I can't stop to listen! Thanks from the Deepest side of my soul! 🙏🥲

@@johnzachariahg WHAT ARE _YOU_ DOING HERE
dune has always been metal. even before it was a movie.
Sadly Herbert hated metal. He was quite insulting when Iron Maiden asking for permission to make "To Tame a Land" Original title: "Dune."
@@almor2445 I am going to incorrectly apply Death of the Author as a literary concept and say “Since Frank Herbert is dead, we can do whatever the hell we want. The thrash must flow.”
Hans Zimmer is definitely a metal head.
He plays the guitar for their live performances

Funny how that's exactly what is in Dune: Part Two
