I'm glad you liked the song! This is a one off theme for a hidden phase of the final boss. The other tracks are mostly an ambient stage themes that break down into battle themes. They're all great but this one is the cherry on top and my favorite 🙂. This game is fantastic.
@@rinnnnnnnnnnrinRinOnishi well its basically if you make it to the third phase of the final battle which you only get playing the boss on its 'hardest' difficulty
@@beelzebub33 what do you mean like there's only two phases for you? 1st and 2nd phase are normal except Cerberus makes a cameo appearance in 2nd. 3rd phase is basically identical to second except the stage is very very dark so hard to see and maybe slightly faster
This song basically: Darren Korb (composer): i just finished the song for the final boss, i really went all out, nothing can top that Devs: actually we are planning to add a third phase Darren: ... Got it.... *Calls up two japanese guitarists*
I could be wrong about this but I remember someone saying the in game description of the song is something along the lines of “banned for having too many notes per second”
Yeah. The you can unlock the music in game and the description says "It was banned in the underworld for having too many notes" or something of the like
That’s something that Hades got damn right. The final boss Hades was, in my opinion, the hardest part of the run every time. And it makes sense! And this music just tops it off. 🔥
Top down action game. Basically this plays when you've met certain replay requirements (game gets harder per replay beaten) and final boss is pulling out ALL of the stops throwing everything INCLUDING the kitchen sink. The stakes are high there and the music plays it.
This masterpiece is a duo, played by Masahiro Aoki and Daisuke kurosawa, with God of the dead by Darren Korb in the back. Hades is one-of-the-kind top-down roguelike, mostly based on story, but with amazing soundtrack and game design
As someone already mentioned in the comments, this is a theme for a hidden phase of the final boss. That way it was somewhat meant as a crazy, shreddy version of the original theme for the final boss called "God of the Dead" which would be great to react to as a comparison. Apart from that, my favourites would be "Scourge of the Furies" and "The Exalted", but the entire soundtrack is a banger, and I revisit it on a regular basis. And the game is for me the best action rougelike ever to be made, undisputed 10/10.
It's music for the unlockable stage 3 of the final boss. It's the final part of the fight that goes from part 1: you think you can beat me? ok i'll toy with you for a bit. Part 2: ok you're good, maybe i'll start trying. Part 3: you're my equal or better. Now i've got to use everything i've got, dirty tricks and all. 'Let us fight as Gods do'
Adding to what others have said, to put it a little more bluntly: this is literally the second half of the final boss theme, but with two guitar soloists going nuts on top of it. They literally specifically brought in two extra guys for this one track just to go ham on it.
I'm kind of disappointed he wasn't requested to listen to all three parts of God of the Dead in order. The Unseen Ones, while absolutely magnificent, just doesn't hit quite as well in a vacuum whereas when it is played after God of the Dead Part 1 & 2 those two already incredible themes magnify this one into true god tier levels.
for a good hades track, try Lament of Orpheus (Underworld Mix)! oh, and in the game's own song library the description says "Banned for having too many notes per second!" The song was written by Darren Korb and performed by Masahiro Aoki and Daisuke Kurosawa!
Transistor was sorta designed with the music in mind as the story revolves around a singer and such its a really interesting concept for the game its self.
The King and The Bull is the one song I’d recommend listening to as well, since no one mentioned it in the comments. My favorite battle music from this game right after The Unseen Ones.
This song is the reward for accepting and surviving the ultimate challenge of beating the game and kicking the god of hell's ass to the extent that he's willing to show you everything he has
Another great one of your old videos that I somehow missed, and for an amazing song to boot! I hope you have played this by now truly. For me this game along with another one literally redefined its genre, proved that modern indies can be far better than any AAA title out there, and furthermore has an absolutely phenomenal soundtrack, atmosphere, vibe and overall epicness. Plus the story, narrative and characters were insanely good as well ! Needless to say I hope you have finished this game by now, and if not you have NO CLUE what a GEM you are missing!!! Also PS : Just listen to the whole ost already on this channel if you still haven't. There is no way in hell you will ever regret it.
The two who do most of the hades sountrack (Darren Korb and Ashley Barrett) actually preformed with Imagine Dragons at the game awards last year. Which was unbelievably cool
I can't believe the in-game description of this song is "Banned for containing too many notes per second" Edit: may I suggest the King and the Bull from this same soundtrack?
I was not prepared for the start of this track, and I've even heard it before! Normally, in game, this has more build up in preceding phases of the boss, but this just jumped to maximum.
My personal experience of this song: Oh thank god, I beat it.... A THIRD PHASE???? Then the inevitable instant death lol, but I can barely hear this song when I get this far because I'm white-knuckling the controller the whole way through and my blood is pounding in my ears. Most players never hear this song because it's reserved for the end boss fight's hidden third phase that only appears if you play on super extreme hard mode. It's not necessary to play through the story, but oh boy was it a reward.
Subscribed purely for mentioning Trivium. I've been listening to them since Acendency. I love how Matt's voice sounds and how well the band meshes. You should react to Good Riddence from Hades. with both singers if you haven't already. It's amazing.
I know year old video and all, but wanted to say thanks for the recommendation of Trivium - The Crusade. Absolute banger of a song. I didn't see it going through your list so definitely recommend "The King and The Bull" from the Hades soundtrack.
God I love this song, if you want kinda similar vibes, Guilty Gear's soundtrack is amazing. My personal favorite is between "Let Me Carve Your Way" and "Heavy Day", but other great songs include "Alone Infection", "Love the Subhuman Self", "Roar of the Spark", and many others!
I'm not gonna lie to you, been playing fighting games my WHOLE life, and never got into GG OST, so I'm very grateful for these requests. Which I'll absolutely do some of them.
They bring homages to some amazing legendary bands like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Testament, Sinergy, Guns n Roses, Mötley Crüe, Megadeth, Metallia, Helloween ...etc etc Just crazy soundtracks all around those series.
I will suggest something outside FFXIV for once - NieR Replicant version 1.22 the song "Song of the ancients - Fate". There's a long story to this song and the games it is in, but suffice to say it was played at the Olympics (orchestral version)
Tenebre rosso sangue... You will do it. İts just a matter of time. Btw you gave me the joy of listening the masterpiece called "the crusade". I can recommend the band "Keygen Church"
The Game Awards has an orchestra performing an OST mash-up for the nominees for Game of the Year. Poor bastards had to mash-up Hades AND Doom AND Final Fantasy 7 AND god damn Animal Crossing. (oh and also The Last of Us Pt.2 I guess) But it goes HARD bro. Love your genuine reaction! While playing the game it can get a bit... Hard to recognize how much of a banger a lot of the tracks really are.
listening to the hades soundtrack if you've played the game is always such a fun balancing act between the urge to headbang vs the immediate flood of adrenaline that comes with the muscle memory of getting your ass kicked repeatedly. 11/10 would let the final boss kill me again. 😌
One of the best game I played in a long time, I have 250 hours but never really stopped to just listen to the music, when tracks like this are on you're always in the thick of it :P
The entire soundtrack. I say this is a blind individuals who has been experiencing this game through a friend via discord. I don't know what it looks like but I love the Percy Jackson series so this game is just a giant Greek love letter and the main character is voice by the composer all this music.
From Hades, Final Expanse and Final Expanse (Payback mix). They’re (obviously) very similar but you’ll probably appreciate how they remixed it from shop music to a boss fight
It's _completely_ different than this, but you should check out Orpheus's Lament, one of the best songs on the OST. Keep the lyrics handy, and be prepared to cry.
Might be a good crack for you to hear the rest of this boss' music (God of The Dead), to catch how it connects to this part of the song and revs up as you get through the fight. Theres definitely some videos with all of the phases put together for that reason! :)
Haven't seen anyone credit the two guitarists responsible for elevating this composition of Darren Korb's. Masahiro "Godspeed" Aoki and Daisuke Kurosawa are the duo responsible for this. These two were actually the only reason I even checked out the Hades soundtrack in the first place! (word of warning, if you like this song I would just listen to Aoki-san's and Kurosawa-san's music since this ost doesn't have any other songs at this level)
Hades is such a great game, with great OST... Just discovered your channel and really enjoying it, keep it up ! I would really love if you could react to "Blooming Villain" from Persona 5, I'm confident you'll enjoy it. Even if it's in a long time, I know you got a lot of requests !
The game is about escaping from hell, tartarus, whatever you wanna call it. At the surface, as a last and desperate attempt to stop you, you met Hades.
im not sure how to send you suggestions but one song you should react to is: FFXIV Eden's Promise: Eternity (Promises to Keep) - it has no direct lyrics but its freaking amazing! Pls Pls!!
@@Segmented same here! I also really like "Colors" and "the roar of the spark". They're probably my favourites behind smell of the game. Oh and "requiem"
.....MAYBE A VERY GOOD TRACK BUT STILL NEEDS SOME EDITING......AS THESE TITLE THEME PIECES ARE UNFITTING AND TOO MUCH OF TEMPO CHANGES ARENT NICE TO SUPPORT PLAYER WITH HELPING TO ACTUALLY CONCENTRATE NOT DISRUPT BY ANY MEAN =BUT STILL,THE PIECE OF MASTERY INDEED,STILL.......

wow....thats incredible that its legit a reward for discovering a secret in a fight
@@rinnnnnnnnnnrinRinOnishi well its basically if you make it to the third phase of the final battle which you only get playing the boss on its 'hardest' difficulty
How do you get the 3rd phase, i finished more than 10 times on max extreme measures and still nada
@@beelzebub33 what do you mean like there's only two phases for you? 1st and 2nd phase are normal except Cerberus makes a cameo appearance in 2nd. 3rd phase is basically identical to second except the stage is very very dark so hard to see and maybe slightly faster
@@beelzebub33 are you on extreme measures 3 or 4?
It's crazy that Orpheus can play this on a lyre
He's a royal musician for a reason
Its an electric lyre
He uses another aspect for this one
@@aregularlink5470 Aspect of Masahiro😂
"Lord Zeus, may I borrow your lightning for my Lyre for a bit?"
This song basically:
Darren Korb (composer): i just finished the song for the final boss, i really went all out, nothing can top that
Devs: actually we are planning to add a third phase
Darren: ... Got it.... *Calls up two japanese guitarists*
I could be wrong about this but I remember someone saying the in game description of the song is something along the lines of “banned for having too many notes per second”
Yeah. The you can unlock the music in game and the description says "It was banned in the underworld for having too many notes" or something of the like
The theme of “HOW DID THIS GET HARDER”
Theme of "WHAT DO YOU MEAN PHASE 3!?"
The theme of "Damn i just got DESTROYED!"
Theme of "What do you mean hugging your dad isn't a strat anymore?"
That’s something that Hades got damn right. The final boss Hades was, in my opinion, the hardest part of the run every time. And it makes sense! And this music just tops it off. 🔥
The theme of "WHAT DO YOU MEAN CERBERUS?!?"
Top down action game. Basically this plays when you've met certain replay requirements (game gets harder per replay beaten) and final boss is pulling out ALL of the stops throwing everything INCLUDING the kitchen sink. The stakes are high there and the music plays it.
Ok lmao that makes a lot of sense then. This music is like "you're aboutta die right now :)"
@@what.6099 it’s a rogue like action game lmao. What are you talking about?
@@what.6099 It's an action game and a rogue like, it literally won best action game at the game awards.
@@Sophie2570 It got a Hugo Award too.
2 years later, and here we are. I'm glad you got to play the game and experience this song directly in it, congrats on beating Hades !
Since you asked, Hades is a top-down action rogue-lite where you play as the son of Hades trying to escape Hell to meet his mother.
Funny thing seems Zagreus is the god of rebirth
@@Ladywizard god of blood and so by consequence of life flooding in our bodies. That should also be why he has red blood like mortals
If I were suggesting Hades songs, I think I'd go for either "Good Riddance" or "In the Blood."
Both of these are great, but the first time I heard In The Blood it was such a great moment.
“Banned for containing far too many notes per minute”
This song is "Banned for containing too many music notes per second" in the House of Hades 😆
^Salieri be like

Part 2: ok you're good, maybe i'll start trying. Part 3: you're my equal or better. Now i've got to use everything i've got, dirty tricks and all. 'Let us fight as Gods do'
"Finally, I'm finished."
"HI FINISHED, I'M DAD!"
Adding to what others have said, to put it a little more bluntly: this is literally the second half of the final boss theme, but with two guitar soloists going nuts on top of it. They literally specifically brought in two extra guys for this one track just to go ham on it.
Masahrio Aoki, and Daisuke Kurosawa, just double-checked the OST
I'm kind of disappointed he wasn't requested to listen to all three parts of God of the Dead in order. The Unseen Ones, while absolutely magnificent, just doesn't hit quite as well in a vacuum whereas when it is played after God of the Dead Part 1 & 2 those two already incredible themes magnify this one into true god tier levels.
holy shit i NEED to get this game, ive put it off for long enough
for a good hades track, try Lament of Orpheus (Underworld Mix)!
oh, and in the game's own song library the description says "Banned for having too many notes per second!"
The song was written by Darren Korb and performed by Masahiro Aoki and Daisuke Kurosawa!
It really is like one long solo XD I also really enjoyed the song suggestion you made and see how it's similar to this one
The Crusade is no joke (I'm gonna cover it soon here)
Supergiant Games (people who made Hades, as well as Bastion and Transistor) have some great tracks!
Transistor was sorta designed with the music in mind as the story revolves around a singer and such its a really interesting concept for the game its self.
You should definitely check out some more music from Hades, it's soundtrack is one Tartarus of a banger, and even got some deeper tracks as well.
Reacting to some more Hades today!
The King and The Bull is the one song I’d recommend listening to as well, since no one mentioned it in the comments. My favorite battle music from this game right after The Unseen Ones.
It's fun to see this reaction again now that he has played the game.
This song is the reward for accepting and surviving the ultimate challenge of beating the game and kicking the god of hell's ass to the extent that he's willing to show you everything he has
and then beating his ass a third time (or dying like i do hehe)
Another great one of your old videos that I somehow missed, and for an amazing song to boot! I hope you have played this by now truly.

thank you SOO MUCH for that trivium recommendation
*randomly comes across this* I don't see enough Hades music in this game OST playlist!
I just finished playing it. Currently making an hour long vid on the ost
The two who do most of the hades sountrack (Darren Korb and Ashley Barrett) actually preformed with Imagine Dragons at the game awards last year. Which was unbelievably cool
I love hades soundtrack. I love how the music flows through out the gameplay. Such a badass soundtrack
A personal favorite of mine is Out of Tartarus. There's some fun with time signatures so if you're into that, give it a listen.
I can't believe the in-game description of this song is "Banned for containing too many notes per second"
Edit: may I suggest the King and the Bull from this same soundtrack?
In the Blood is a great tune from this, it's a different style entirely and just sorta shows a huge variance in the soundtrack.
It's cool, because "The Unseen Ones" actually takes snippets from "In the Blood." Like at 1:43 for example
I was not prepared for the start of this track, and I've even heard it before! Normally, in game, this has more build up in preceding phases of the boss, but this just jumped to maximum.
"How did I know?"
Your sixth sense for Greatness is growing.

I honestly can't wait to do more Hades lmao
It's _completely_ different than this, but you should check out Orpheus's Lament, one of the best songs on the OST. Keep the lyrics handy, and be prepared to cry.
I Kinda wished you listened to "God of the dead" first then let it Transition to the "Unseen ones". It really goes from 10 to 11 then 12
Might be a good crack for you to hear the rest of this boss' music (God of The Dead), to catch how it connects to this part of the song and revs up as you get through the fight. Theres definitely some videos with all of the phases put together for that reason! :)

"In the blood"

Through asphodel is another great one
Bro, I had the same face... WTF moments, mixed with 'I wanna cry', It's an absolute metal masterpiece.
I feel like you may enjoy the other side of Hades soundtrack, a more melodic piece, try "In the Blood" or "Good Riddance"
This is basically what it sounds like to fight god
Wow that's a good Song!
I mean it's literally the deepest music of hell...
im not sure how to send you suggestions but one song you should react to is: FFXIV Eden's Promise: Eternity (Promises to Keep) - it has no direct lyrics but its freaking amazing! Pls Pls!!
You should react to "Bullets per Minute" music..it's cheap rogue-like, rythm-shooter game, made by 2 guys from assets, but with kinda cool music.
As you requested... here's the request: Good Riddance, Out of Tartarus :)
One song i recommend is The King and the Bull.
Sounds like a dragon force song
I recommend checking out the orchestral concert where songs from all 4 Super Giant Games Games were played: th-cam.com/video/9qM1BZjz6H0/w-d-xo.html
Hey, you should listen to some Guilty Gear music, They have some real rock/metal bangers there.
