@@mia3033 To add to what the other guy said. Vergil loves a lot of classical things **SPOILER ALERT** In one of the old mangas there was a man that "raised" Vergil (can't think of another word right now) and he said that Vergil was a really nice kid that liked to read a lot, especially poetry. He'd go to the man and read some of his books, that's where V's personality comes from, V is just Vergil's human side obviously, but also his "nobody" because Vergil buries him down deep within him, and doesn't wanna show that side since he considers it weak (More spoilers) since Vergil was outside playing (as seen in DMC5 when V was talking about how he was playing) when the demons attacked and they almost killed Vergil who didn't have enough strength since he was really young to deal with them and that's why Vergil is obsessed with getting more power, so he'd never need anyone's help anymore, because he swore he'd never let something like that ever happen to him again. In conclusion, Vergil is a really nice guy just blinded by trauma.
If you're wondering why people suggested you listen to Devil Trigger first before Bury The Light, it's because the ending of Bury The Light (the final vocals and guitar solo) have a light motif of Devil Trigger. Casey's explained that he did that in order to connect the songs together because of the character's connection to each other in the story of the games. There's even a few lyrics that also connect Nero and Vergil together. Casey is an absolute genius and this song truly is a work of art! Glad you enjoyed it!
Video game music is the most underrated music. People shit on it for no reason when these composers are putting their all into making each song a banger. Like I read someone using “you probably listen to videogame soundtracks” as an insult and it’s so dumb that so many game composers go unknown bec people underestimate the genre
Honestly, I've never met someone in-person who ever trashed Video Game BGM. I can only imagine it's snobbish musicians and related ilk, people I never fucking see. Composers under the Big Three (Nintendo, Xbox, Sony) all have financial access to orchestra of any size, and to an extent smaller developer's too, just with a size (budget) limit. Early VG composing is typified by innovation and intense creativity due to technological constraints. Video Game Music isn't even a genre really, because OSTs vary wildly. From the Classical and (sometimes) Prog inspired Final Fantasy, to Death Metal Mick Gordon Doom, to the purely Rock inspired Megaman, hell indy title VA11 HALL-A (Valhalla) is comprised of various EDM (Electronic Dance Music) tracks from different electronic genres.
@@mikkaelmansbridge5154 it’s just not really mainstream. The people who listen to it like it but people who listen to the radio or follow rap, pop or rock would be like “game music? Weird.”
@@mikkaelmansbridge5154 Yeah, I don't hang out with people who have this mentality, but I do occasionally cross paths with someone willing to let me know they think videogame music is "not real music." Sometimes they're highly competent snobs, but more often it's just people who view videogames as a low/simple form of entertainment, and they associate that view with the music that's paired with games. I'm sure they exist, maybe even in great numbers, but I've never dealt with anyone who vehemently defended that view. They realize quickly that it's deeper than they think, at least when confronted with someone who's willing to point out how silly they were being.
This song literally got me to play DMC5 and i've never even played any of the old games and i can tell you that it is 100% worth it hopefully you'll have enough time to try it someday!
Same here, I saw Bury the Light a few months ago before hearing a bit of the "I am the storm that is approaching" in a video clip and thought it was really good Listened to the whole song and decided it was enough motivation to buy and play the game
Okay awesome but you should play the old games! DMC3 is one of the greatest games I've ever played. All 4 previous games are available on all platforms!
Victor Borba is indeed the vocalist, with Casey Edwards being the composer. And to answer the question of "Is this game footage?" yes. Yes it is, and it's awesome. A lot of people like to say Brutal Legend is a playable metal album cover because the visuals were literally inspired by them, but for my money, DMC is far more metal.
Damn, just gotta drop that thought like napalm, eh? ... I mean, you're RIGHT, but my heart still aches over the fact that Brutal Legend had to take the hit for a very valid, very precise compliment. I guess I could just take solace in the fact it's very difficult to be more metal than Brutal Legend, and DMC is the only one to do so.
Honestly, that's my favourite part of the song. It has this big, epic, menacing sounding to it. The lyrics are cool and all...Then, like halfway through you realize how much is Vergil's mentality, and coping with his past...And the ending, my fuckin god, it get's me every time.
@@mr.cookey especially when you remember in lore Vergil was unfortunate to be stuck defending himself against the demon hordes when he was a child during Mundus' minions raid on the family.
Fun fact : Capcom forbid Casey Edwards to use electric guitars in the theme. To find a compromise, Casey recording a contrebasse (double bass in english ?) and distorted it with sound engineering to make the big Doom like sound. He explained in his interview done by Alex Moukala which is a really good watch and offers a lot of knowledge about the making of this song.
I think this needs some clarification. Capcom set the expectation of not using electric guitars unless it was the chorus, which I did. Next, it's not a contrabass, it's a synthetic bass I made using U-He's Zebra that's been processed to hell and back. Cheers!
The announcement trailer for the Special Edition/Vergil DLC for this game came out on my birthday. I was already having a splendid day with my family, but this absolutely completed it. I was so damn excited and Bury the Light very quickly became my favourite song, period.
This song was what single-handedly got me into the DMC series this year. Combined with some legendary gameplay from SunhiLegend in a 1 minute video uploaded by awonddy simply titled "I AM THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING", it's pretty much everything I could ever want.
Devil may cry, like starwars, is basically super-powered family drama. Main plot point the whole damn time is two brothers (Dante and Vergil) constantly smacking eachother trying to be better than the other.
I think the important thing to remember about video game music is that it accompanies video games. So a lot of it is produced to work in concert with the visuals of the game; DMC music works so well because it really matches the tone of the game visually. I think Bury the Light works so well because of how heavy it is compared to the more irreverent rave music that Devil Trigger has. It's a bit like if you were listening to Paper Planes for a long time and all of a sudden Rammstein broke in through the door and announced themselves by playing Du Hast. Like it feels like a complete tonal shift, really adding impact to the weight of the song.
One of the coolest things about dmc, is that gameplay and cutscenes mix so well. The devs go out of their way to make it to where everything you see in cutscenes can be done in game.
I feel like DMC is a great series for someone who plays an instrument or makes music of any kind. When you really get into a flow state in the game it feels so familiar.
I'm so happy you loved both my requests! :D lol, there was a reason everyone was saying Devil Trigger 1st, it's amazing and 10/10 but Bury the Light is 11/10. XD Glad it lived up to all the hype we gave you for it. :)
You will have much more insight into its lyrics once you've experienced the story around Vergil. Especially the chorus "I am the storm that is approaching" is such a nice reference!
8:18 I had heard of dante but never cared to play this game. but then i heard this song and went "god I need to play this". I bought 1-5 and I absolutely love this series
What's really great is that, though Casey Edwards says it wasn't intentional, the soft-spoken part of the song sort of resembles the last stretch of Devils Never Cry with the back and forth between angelic and demonic voices.
It also has a very obvious callback to Devil's Never Cry, too. The whole song honestly feels like the entirety of the DMC series compressed into musical bliss.
To be fair, anything by Mick Gordon is a banger. Also Andrew Hulshult. I got to the point where if I see a game composed by him, it's an instant buy. Yeah, even the Rise of the Triad remake. I basically bought a soundtrack that came with free janky game lol
Victor is the singer, Casey is the composer. Casey also did come killer instinct stuff stuff mick. Casey and Victor have made another song Vacant surrender. It's not video related at all, but it still rocks
Forget video game songs, this is probably my favorite song period. I've listened to it several times a day since its launch without getting tired of it lmao. I'm so glad you enjoyed it, can't wait to see what's in store for you down the line!
The game has a combo meter in the game that increases as you get hits. The cool part is that the music will ramp up based on your combos for each of the different characters. It makes everything so effortlessly cinematic.
bury the light is the best song in all of dmc across all games imo. also being so entranced by a song that it doesn't let you think is so good. also! i'm sure nobody would mind you commenting on other stuff that isn't just how good the song is lol, even if this is a music channel. seeing any appreciation on any part of games and songs we love is always a great experience
All I did was listen to this song when it first came out 😂 it's like an opera. I would happily go to opera and they can just perform this and standing ovation from me!
This franchise really made a before and after, even bring me into what I am, what I like today and I'm freaking happy with it. Playing the games, get to know the story better and listening to these songs really gives you Goosebumps. A must play for me and my personal recommendation 🎰
devil may cry has had a number of true bangers over the years, ultra violet of dmc1 never surrender of dmc4 divine hate from dmc3 cerberus theme from dmc3 cavillere Angelo of dmc5. all incredible songs. but bury the light is the best song to of come from this series aside from devils never cry. I hope that when this series continues. Casey Edward's remains a composer
The fact that Victor Borba Is involved with huge projects such as ffxiv with endwalker's theme and this, shows how far that man's gonna go. PS: i hear so much of Mick Gordon in this. That bass distortion is sick!
I'm not gonna lie. This is the best song out of all DMC songs, period. You've found the top of the mountain. It's a good thing you listened to Devil Trigger first... shame you didn't hear Nero's other battle theme from DMC4 before now, though.
Devil May Cry is a series known for sadness, heartwarmingness and melancholy, you'll notice this in pretty much every Lyrical theme (minus DmC) that exists.
Devil May Cry 5 is probably my favourite game in the series, I played the others but the this music and build up is a must play on the Vergil boss fight
5:40 I see what you did there. to give context for those who don't know; Arkham, the bald-headed guy, as he walks away from vergil he says the line, "A storm is approaching".
I have been following your channel for quite a while now and I'm loving every single video. As a Final Fantasy fan and lotta other games, I'm grateful for the content you are making. Love your energy and how sincere and passionate you are about what you are doing. Please keep up the good work! My first time requesting something: Subhuman (Dante's Battle Theme from Devil May Cry 5) ^^
@@JessesAuditorium If you take a listen to Subhuman, make sure you listen to the OST version. The most common version of it on TH-cam is the in-game version which is missing certain things from the OST version.
He just heard the song and watch gameplay and it's enough to say "i'm gonna play dmc" we all did the same thing, it's totally worth dmc is a pretty good franchise, and all of it's games has a pretty good soundtracks too
Can’t believe I’ve heard this before you man. This song gets me motivated 😈 jokes aside this song is amazing I’ve used this for background music for so many action games, have had this on repeat at the gym multiple times…it’s just 9 minutes of pure motivation
I love this song so much, that whenever I got out in public, I put this on repeat in my noise-cancelling headphones, and just have it in the background. Just a bit of motivation, and something to focus on that's not that I'm around a lot of people.
you've already listened to three of the best Devil May Cry songs out there, so here's another from me. Shall Never Surrender from Devil May Cry 4. it's pretty good too.
Devil Trigger, Subhuman and Crimson Cloud are the themes of Nero, Dante and V respectively. I'd recommend listening to them all because they're all great.
Plenty of songs in games that hit so hard you just ascend for a moment as your getting folded just to enjoy the music, yes it's worth it without a doubt
Seeing you react to DMC music for the first time is priceless. Such a cool series with such honest don't-give-a-damn tunes. Not sure if you check comments for requests, but I see you react to a lot of FFXIV music. There's another online game out there with a really unique and banging soundtrack called Phantasy Star Online 2. A few of the songs in that game took me completely by surprise, but very few content creators are reacting to them, or even know about the game's soundtrack. If you find the time, check out The Phantom Race - Esca Falz Mother Rideroid Part and Borderless for a couple of absolute bangers.
I love this song so much, I don't know how many times I listen to this song during the day. Some DMC songs I recommend you to listen one day are Subhuman (Dante's battle theme from dmc5), and two songs from the DMC reboot: Never Surrender by Combichrist and Lilith's Club by Noisia. Great channel btw :)
Just in case nobody told you this yet... Even though the video shows Dante and Vergil fighting, this song is Vergils default battle theme in DMC 5^^ Also yes, that was in-game footage^^
Don't know if you'll see this or not but Darksiders 2 themes, like The Guardian OST, The Archon Battle Theme, The Crowfather Battle theme all composed by Jesper Kyd are awesome and definitely worth listening to. They're not songs, they're instrumentals.
Love to see that you got into the groove pretty much from the start haha, this song is a masterpiece. Vacant Surrender is a new collab track by the both of them, can recommend man. (Also you've probably already been corrected but Victor Borba is the Vocalist) :)
YESSS this is one of my faves, so stoked to watch this one I felt that, fastest ten minutes of my life lol 😂 sometimes I keep it on repeat and time just flies by, it's great when waiting for something while having nothing else to do
Since you heard Bury the Light, a recommendation of the Devil May Cry 5 soundtrack is Voltaic Black Knight, although it is only instrumental, it is enjoyed too much. I hope you hear her I love your videos
Loved the video! This is how I react to the song every time I hear it! It's soooo good. Don't know if anyone mentioned it but Victor and Casey have another song together called Vacant Surrender and it is also awesome! :D
Glad you enjoyed it. This is basically an encapsulation of Vergil. The violins are references to V, there's references to some of the Devil May Cry comics, there's a passage adapted from a William Blake poem, and part of the guitar solo is lifted straight from, "Devil Trigger," because Vergil is Nero's father. Next you should do, "Fire Inside," which is also by Casey Edwards and Victor Borba, and, "Bury the Cringe a.k.a. Biboo Delight," by Koseki Bijou, who is a Hololive member and a certified Vergil fangirl who sang a parody version after she completed a Vergil playthrough with Casey Edwards watching in the stream (yes, seriously) with a video edited by Ludokano.
What I like about your reaction is that, even though I was watching on my tablet & covering the visuals with my palm ('cause I want to experience the game one day), just seeing the joy on your face reacting to the song has given me enough entertainment, and it speaks volumes about your expressivity, because we are very visual-focused creatures. Seeing people enjoy this masterpiece of a song is my evening jam, because experiencing it again through people experiencing it for the first time is .... it just transposes me back to when I first heard the song. I've gotta say, during your reaction I had the biggest, shit-eating grin you can possibly imagine :D Play DMC man, I haven't played the latest one, but even so, I hear it's the bee's knees. Peace & rock on! \m/
You really should play it. The sick thing about the combat is that the song plays different verses depending on how well you play. So it matches whats on screen depending on how well you do.

Forget video game songs, this is probably my favorite song period. I've listened to it several times a day since its launch without getting tired of it lmao. I'm so glad you enjoyed it, can't wait to see what's in store for you down the line!
The game has a combo meter in the game that increases as you get hits. The cool part is that the music will ramp up based on your combos for each of the different characters. It makes everything so effortlessly cinematic.
Another really sick song is BFG Division From 2016's Doom. Have a feeling you'll love it.
bury the light is the best song in all of dmc across all games imo. also being so entranced by a song that it doesn't let you think is so good. also! i'm sure nobody would mind you commenting on other stuff that isn't just how good the song is lol, even if this is a music channel. seeing any appreciation on any part of games and songs we love is always a great experience
All I did was listen to this song when it first came out 😂 it's like an opera. I would happily go to opera and they can just perform this and standing ovation from me!
This franchise really made a before and after, even bring me into what I am, what I like today and I'm freaking happy with it.
Playing the games, get to know the story better and listening to these songs really gives you Goosebumps.
A must play for me and my personal recommendation 🎰
This is a generation where new songs are the lead of the world.
Bury The Light is a starter and I'm glad for it. Thank you videogames! ❤️
devil may cry has had a number of true bangers over the years,
ultra violet of dmc1
never surrender of dmc4
divine hate from dmc3
cerberus theme from dmc3
cavillere Angelo of dmc5. all incredible songs.
but bury the light is the best song to of come from this series aside from devils never cry.
I hope that when this series continues. Casey Edward's remains a composer
This is what happens when a fan makes something for what he truly loves.
The fact that Victor Borba Is involved with huge projects such as ffxiv with endwalker's theme and this, shows how far that man's gonna go.
PS: i hear so much of Mick Gordon in this. That bass distortion is sick!
Wait- no way!? That was him?? Victor Borba in EW soundtrack?
Edit: involved with the production but not singing..?
This song is the best Devil may cry song to date, no questions.
Never bored listening to it, I love to sing it but some high notes I cannot reach, damn it !
I'm not gonna lie. This is the best song out of all DMC songs, period. You've found the top of the mountain. It's a good thing you listened to Devil Trigger first... shame you didn't hear Nero's other battle theme from DMC4 before now, though.
Literally one of the best songs I've heard in a game and life. This song is gonna haunt me forever
Devil May Cry is a series known for sadness, heartwarmingness and melancholy, you'll notice this in pretty much every Lyrical theme (minus DmC) that exists.
Powerful music for a powerful being.... a MOTIVATED BEING! >:3
The DMC franchise is one of the video games that has amazing soundtracks.
Devil May Cry 5 is probably my favourite game in the series, I played the others but the this music and build up is a must play on the Vergil boss fight
5:40 I see what you did there.
to give context for those who don't know; Arkham, the bald-headed guy, as he walks away from vergil he says the line, "A storm is approaching".
I have been following your channel for quite a while now and I'm loving every single video. As a Final Fantasy fan and lotta other games, I'm grateful for the content you are making. Love your energy and how sincere and passionate you are about what you are doing. Please keep up the good work!
My first time requesting something: Subhuman (Dante's Battle Theme from Devil May Cry 5) ^^
Thank you! Hopefully beginning of November 🤍
@@JessesAuditorium If you take a listen to Subhuman, make sure you listen to the OST version. The most common version of it on TH-cam is the in-game version which is missing certain things from the OST version.
He just heard the song and watch gameplay and it's enough to say "i'm gonna play dmc" we all did the same thing, it's totally worth dmc is a pretty good franchise, and all of it's games has a pretty good soundtracks too
After hearing this song you have gained POWER AND MOTIVATION
Can’t believe I’ve heard this before you man. This song gets me motivated 😈 jokes aside this song is amazing I’ve used this for background music for so many action games, have had this on repeat at the gym multiple times…it’s just 9 minutes of pure motivation
I think judgement cut-End is probably the sickest fucking final move in any video game
“idk what’s coming after that”
Well I for one am
this song is easily the best track in the entire dmc series
I love this song so much, that whenever I got out in public, I put this on repeat in my noise-cancelling headphones, and just have it in the background. Just a bit of motivation, and something to focus on that's not that I'm around a lot of people.
This one of the best song I’ve heard in my hole life
you've already listened to three of the best Devil May Cry songs out there, so here's another from me.
Shall Never Surrender from Devil May Cry 4. it's pretty good too.
I don’t even listen to rock music and i m hooked to this masterpiece.
Devil Trigger, Subhuman and Crimson Cloud are the themes of Nero, Dante and V respectively. I'd recommend listening to them all because they're all great.
Fuck, love me some Subhuman. Definitely hope he listens to them.
You should listen to Vacant Surrender, another Colab of Victor and Casey on the same vein of this song, amazing stuff
(9:09) I Can't stop hearing This Song. Fuck, I'm listening for the fifteenth time today alone, help this is my favorite part
Plenty of songs in games that hit so hard you just ascend for a moment as your getting folded just to enjoy the music, yes it's worth it without a doubt
I genuinely believe this is the greatest song ever made.
Seeing you react to DMC music for the first time is priceless. Such a cool series with such honest don't-give-a-damn tunes. Not sure if you check comments for requests, but I see you react to a lot of FFXIV music. There's another online game out there with a really unique and banging soundtrack called Phantasy Star Online 2. A few of the songs in that game took me completely by surprise, but very few content creators are reacting to them, or even know about the game's soundtrack. If you find the time, check out The Phantom Race - Esca Falz Mother Rideroid Part and Borderless for a couple of absolute bangers.
Virgil, the beginning and the end
I love this song so much, I don't know how many times I listen to this song during the day. Some DMC songs I recommend you to listen one day are Subhuman (Dante's battle theme from dmc5), and two songs from the DMC reboot: Never Surrender by Combichrist and Lilith's Club by Noisia. Great channel btw :)
BFG Division from DOOM 2016. It'll melt your ears.
The song is dynamic during gameplay as well, with higher skilled play rewarding you with the more bombastic parts of the song.
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH
Get this man all the mainline Devil May Cry games!! Full play through man You will love them!!
Just in case nobody told you this yet...
Even though the video shows Dante and Vergil fighting, this song is Vergils default battle theme in DMC 5^^
Also yes, that was in-game footage^^
This song is the Masterpiece of DMC. My favourite will always be Devils never cry but THIS ONE is beyond perfect...
This is probably the best song to come out in a while and the best trailer for me was endwalker
Don't know if you'll see this or not but Darksiders 2 themes, like The Guardian OST, The Archon Battle Theme, The Crowfather Battle theme all composed by Jesper Kyd are awesome and definitely worth listening to. They're not songs, they're instrumentals.
Love to see that you got into the groove pretty much from the start haha, this song is a masterpiece.
Vacant Surrender is a new collab track by the both of them, can recommend man. (Also you've probably already been corrected but Victor Borba is the Vocalist) :)
When he says "Vergil" he literally sounded like Dante saying it.
YESSS this is one of my faves, so stoked to watch this one
I felt that, fastest ten minutes of my life lol 😂 sometimes I keep it on repeat and time just flies by, it's great when waiting for something while having nothing else to do
"No, TH-cam, I do not agree to your term of service. It is YOU who will follow MY term of service."
Bury the Light is on almost all of my playlists right beside Sins of the Father and Snake Eater (both from Metal Gear and highly recommended!)
if you've never heard "A phantom pain" from MGSV I would highly recommend it, might be one of my favorites from the MGSV soundtrack.
@@Malficious MGSV, while maybe not the best game in the series, absolutely nailed the OST.
love snake eater 🍷
It's funny you mention the MGS songs as I play them together with Bury the Light during my exercise...they give off the same hyping energy...
Since you heard Bury the Light, a recommendation of the Devil May Cry 5 soundtrack is Voltaic Black Knight, although it is only instrumental, it is enjoyed too much.
I hope you hear her I love your videos
I haven't played dmc but I've been looking at the story recently, and the relationship between dante and vergil is honestly amazing
This is what plays when you drive away from changing a strangers tire on the side of the interstate.
Glad you liked this one a lot, looking forward to your other reactions ^^
You are a very bright and kind guy
thanks for that
When you started nodding your head, i was like "Yep it got him just like the rest of us"
Loved the video! This is how I react to the song every time I hear it! It's soooo good. Don't know if anyone mentioned it but Victor and Casey have another song together called Vacant Surrender and it is also awesome! :D
the fact that the song is 10 minutes long and we still listen to it on a dialy basis and never gets old is just mindblowing
Glad you enjoyed it. This is basically an encapsulation of Vergil. The violins are references to V, there's references to some of the Devil May Cry comics, there's a passage adapted from a William Blake poem, and part of the guitar solo is lifted straight from, "Devil Trigger," because Vergil is Nero's father. Next you should do, "Fire Inside," which is also by Casey Edwards and Victor Borba, and, "Bury the Cringe a.k.a. Biboo Delight," by Koseki Bijou, who is a Hololive member and a certified Vergil fangirl who sang a parody version after she completed a Vergil playthrough with Casey Edwards watching in the stream (yes, seriously) with a video edited by Ludokano.
What I like about your reaction is that, even though I was watching on my tablet & covering the visuals with my palm ('cause I want to experience the game one day), just seeing the joy on your face reacting to the song has given me enough entertainment, and it speaks volumes about your expressivity, because we are very visual-focused creatures.
Seeing people enjoy this masterpiece of a song is my evening jam, because experiencing it again through people experiencing it for the first time is .... it just transposes me back to when I first heard the song. I've gotta say, during your reaction I had the biggest, shit-eating grin you can possibly imagine :D Play DMC man, I haven't played the latest one, but even so, I hear it's the bee's knees. Peace & rock on! \m/
:D! ty
You've heard Nero and Virgil next would be Dante's theme Subhuman
Soon hopefully! Need more DMC in my ear holes
@@JessesAuditorium you're gonna like it 😎
This song perfectly represents Vergil's life.
You really should play it. The sick thing about the combat is that the song plays different verses depending on how well you play. So it matches whats on screen depending on how well you do.
