TOWW: "Give me the red crown now" The Lamb: "You were a symbol of inspiration for me, with your guidance i've learned to use others for my own avantage" "That's why.. i said YOU WERE =)" *Menacing Lamb's Satanic Laugh*
In hindsight, it all makes sense. The One Who Waits with all his power was defeated by the Bishops and imprisoned, but the Lamb with that same power (arguably less) is able to kill all four of them. He was no longer a worthy god the moment he gave the Lamb that crown.
To be fair to Narinder, it's implied the four bishops attacked him as a group and he did give all of them everlasting injuries. To be less fair to him, he didn't manage to kill any of them before he got sealed away.
@@appeli1 Except that doesn't make much sense when Narinder's the god of death meaning Narinder would of had plenty of followers hence why he wasn't killed but sealed away, you can't kill death.
@@RatchetSly yes. To be even less fair to him, the best he could do is cause significant brain damage to Shamura, and even then I wouldn’t be surprised if the Bishops set up a trap for him, with Shamura as bait.
@guy who exists Well, he *did* blind Leshy and cut Heket's throat as well, which even with godly power, did still affect both of them. Kallamar losing his ears seems like the only injury that had basically no effect, haha.
Narinder: Okay, you did what I told you to, now give me the crown. Lamb: No. Narinder: But I don’t have any need for you anymore… Lamb: We spit on your family. *FIGHT BEGINS*
Narinder: Dear diary, today I was betrayed by bishops and was sent to world outside of death. Dear diary, today I saved the last lamb and gave him instructions and my crown. I hope they do their job. Dear diary, today I was betrayed by lamb. Now I'm powerless, standing in line to join cult that was my idea. Dear diary, today I married lamb. And they forced me and Shamura... I don't want to talk about this... Dear diary, there's two of them!

@@Aceleo209 that's why all 4 bishops were needed to keep him down there. and if i had known what he did to them I would've been like "Fair enough" but nooooo they had to slaughter thousands of lambs, involve my most loyal followers, and tried to get me to bow to them in attempt to humiliate me.

That choir is not only godly, but tells the story of the game in a short 2 minutes, practically. In the beginning, there's only a deep, evil voice that overtakes nearly everything, showing just how imposing Narinder is. The soft vocals then contend with his, showing The Lamb fighting back. The chorus that comes in after completely drowns out the deep vocals, representing The Lamb's cult cheering him on. The choppiness of them could show that the cult is either tired as all hell or Narinder is trying to keep them from giving any kind of support. When the dark vocals come back, they have the same choppiness of the chorus, but the soft vocals do not. It shows that Narinder is on the brink of losing while The Lamb is still fighting with all of his might to dethrone his former god. But that's not all he's doing. The chorus comes back after and once more drowns out the dark vocals, showing that his cult still has fight in them too. After The Lamb kills his sons, Narinder only has his own power to rely on. The Lamb, however, has an entire group of followers behind him. He once lost everything, and he will be literally be damned before he sees his newfound family and power go to ashes. But that's just my take on it. The track is fantastic either way and is always a bop.
@@SableTheCrazyPersonwho says you can't make your children your disciples and considering their songs quite literally say first and second son they very well could be his kids
The song make a perfect summary of how to feel when you meet The One Who Waits, he waited, until this point. He wants to be free, but you denied to sacrifice yourself and now you have to fight, The One Who Waited long enough. But to build up to the moment, you have to fight the other 2 guys first (forgot their names). The OST contains godly sounds with imply that the one you are fighting has godly powers, just amazing to play and listen to/with. Amazing job on making the whole soundtrack, one of the biggest reasons the game is so amazing imo.
Ever wonder why, when you receive him as a follower, his name is "The One Who Waits" instead of his true name Narinder? Because he's back to waiting... again. And with his immortality, but no one left to oppose the Lamb... This time, he will be waiting forever.
This power has chosen a new bearer. One, that is now far more powerful than the One Who Waits. Nothing but a hollow husk, chained for an entire millenia, their mind and might has decayed like flesh in the woods of the old faith. Trapped by bishops that fell like pawns to my blade... Pathetic. Their flocks gathering around me like the weak, mindless critters they are. But with their blind devotion, I nourished this power. With a single glance I break their will. They eat out of my hands as if they were blessed goblets. And gift their life to me when it is my wish. In just a few weeks I have conquered these woods, have slayn hundreds of heretics, build a commune that towers above the ones that came before it. I do not need the gift of immortality anymore for I have forged it myself. The One Who Waits believes me their sacrifical lamb, reaping the rewards for what I have sown. But I will make sure the prophecies will be fullfilled and a faith more cruel than a thousand years of imprisonment smites their feeble being. The red crown cannot sit upon two brows. And it. Belongs. *_To me._*
Damn, this made me think that in the end, even after killing The one who waits, the Lamb got so many followers that they can keep sacrificing them endlessly to return stronger, basically turning themself 'immortal' by taking one life after another without needing the power from The one who waits. ... How can such a cute and innocent looking lamb be this evil?

I like how Narinder had his final straw with us and then dropped this banger while my anxiety took over because I had only 3 hearts left. I kept this song on my Spotify playlist and it’s still there along with the exploration themes too.
For ones saying this boss was weak,it was perfect for me. Like in Dark souls 1,the final boss is Gwyn, which is just the freakin most empowered thing in the universe...But he seems different,a fallen creature that one time was more than a god. The exact same happens here,you are fighting a creature that waited milleniums for something good,that asked for your sacrifice. This isn't Narinder anymore,but a creature in ruins that sometime was one of the 5 most powerful things to ever exist,a consequence of his own action. I love it.
this music (whole ost) makes my brain go brrrr in the best way. it's quickly become a favourite and will be in my playlists for months. very very very fun and vibe-y!! amazing fucking job!! also, i need to hear any future projects you make!!!
I'm not sure if you intended for this, but I had an interesting take on the choirs? Chanting? I dunno I'm gonna call em choirs. The deeper, more evil sounding choir could represent The One Who Waits, being a giant deity and all. The deep choir takes the lead in the song, being the first voice you hear, setting a menacing mood for the battle. This is after all, the fight against the one those vocals represent. Then there's the higher pitched, more human-ish choir, which represents The Lamb. These vocals are less powerful at the beginning compared to The One Who Waits, having less presence compared to the deep choir. The Dark Choir even overtakes the light choir during the middle of the song, but like before, is overpowered by the light choir for the remaining segment of the loop. Whenever the light choir takes over, it gains a doubled layer on itself, seemingly empowered by an unseen force. This track is literally the two figures of power, The One Who Waits and The Lamb, fighting while they're actually fighting in game, and personally I find that amazing. I'm not sure if this was the intended effect but if it was, it proves that you are a musical genius, great work River Boy!
Wait that's actually a really great analysis??? Now that you mention it, you can hear Narindar's growls here in the OST Sacrfice. Probably indicating that all these sacrfices are made in his name
The Bishops of the Old Faith were quite prominent in the old days. They seemed to work together. To be kind to one another. To appreciate one another’s help, regardless of how much one hated another. But it wasn’t long until that changed. The 5th sibling, Narinder, wasn’t happy. He instead, after being gifted the Red Crown by one of his siblings, to use it to create his own cult. But it wouldn’t be easy. Eventually, his siblings figured out what was going on, and tried to banish the Beast That Was Once a Bishop. They succeeded in doing so, but not without consequence. Leshy, the youngest of the siblings, wanted the approval of the rest. And because of that wanting, it led to him losing his eyes. Heket, the next, was regarded as “The Voice of the Old Faith. And, as revenge, Narinder slit her throat. Even though this wouldn’t rid her of her voice, the wound wouldn’t leave. Kallamar was the next one. He was the first one to figure it out, to try and warn his siblings. But nobody listened. And, as if it were some sort of joke, he wouldn’t be listening either, as he would be the one to lose his ears. And finally, Shamura. She was the wisest and oldest of the siblings, the one that gave Narinder the Red Crown originally. And she took the worst injury of them all, as her skull was shattered, leaving her brain vulnerable. With this, she gained pain and revelations that would be important. Narinder was sealed away. Bound to his own realm, tied up by four chains, each one guarded by a bishop. It seemed like it was over. But it wasn’t. Shamura received a prophecy. That the Sacrificial Lamb would come to kill the bishops and free Narinder, now known by a different name. Heket and Leshy immediately decided to hunt down every single lamb, until only one remained. Kallamar, still terrified of his bound brother, his in his territory, Ancheodeep. Eventually, the last lamb was taken to the sacrificial pedestal. But the bishops made a miscalculation. They killed it, sending it to the realm of death. What they failed to realize was that that was the realm of Narinder himself. Narinder, following the prophecy, gave the lamb his prized possession, the Red Crown. The Lamb followed his instructions, killing each of the four bishops. But when finally close to being free, the lamb refused to give the crown back. Enraged and filled with betrayal, he sent out his two “sons” to kill it. They both failed. He then went for his last resort. Fighting the lamb head on. Narinder, the Beast That Once Was a Bishop. Narinder, the sibling that gouged Leshys eyes out. Narinder, the sibling that slit Hekets throat. Narinder, the sibling that sliced Kallamars ears off. Narinder, the sibling who shattered Shamuras skull. Narinder, the sibling bound for over a millennia. Narinder, the sibling who finished what he had started: by killing his siblings. No, not Narinder. The One Who Waits.
I am literally trying to harvest blue hearts so I can get past that stupid part where Narimder becomes an eldritch and starts creating fireball walls. It's always the one from below that brings me to half a heart.
TOWW: “Lamb you’ve been a good sheep but time to give cat daddy his toys back so he can be free.” Lamb, cocking blunderbuss with murderous intent: “THIS IS NOT A DEMOCRACY! I HAVE A GUN, *THAT MEANS IM IN-CHARGE!* “
Narinder: well done my most devout follower, you've done a great job freeing me, now i just need you to give back that crown Lamb: yeah... well about that... personally, i think it looks better on me
just finished this game and it was a fucking rollercoaster! The bosses and the enemies were so hard and that’s what made this game so good! Thanks Devolver for such a badass game!
this makes me feel a certain way about the fight now, the god who gives you a chance to then betray you, but their are still mixed feeling toward him in a way, it kinda feels like when you find out your father is the bad guy and you personally are the only one to take him down, but he is still your father..you're doing the right thing but but you still emotionally attached towards him. singing together as you both must leave alone. and be only one victor
Ironically is what Shamura directly warns you about. He said that Narinder betrayed the Bishops and even brought a follower to turn against you just to give you a taste of how Narinder will betray you will feel like. Even the beggining text of the game warns you about a crown being unable to fit on two heads.
I wish mega satan in the binding of isaac had a big theme like this, instead of just reusing hericide otherwise. love this song so much, best in the soundtrack
Narinder:YOU WILL GIVE ME WHAT IS MINE BY RIGHT LAMB! lamb:...no. im done being a pawn. In only a few weeks,i made the woods run red in blood,and now bear a place for all. The one who waits will wait no longer. Because you will fall. You want My crown? Come and take it. Lets see whos truely worthy. I am the new god of death,and no crown can sit upon 2 brows. Narinder:you dare!? I WILL FLAY YOUR SOUL FROM YOUR CORPSE! Lamb:you will try. And you,will. *FALL.*
Honestly I feel like Lamb would give the crown back easily if the requirement wasn't death and he was simply promised rewards for his service. Keeping his cult in the name of the one who waits and keeping some power even if Narinder would hold most of the power. Then Narinder could kill lamb or stick to his promises. He was just too overconfident to see just how powerful Lamb had become.
I really love how back and forth the story goes. You are supposedly doing holy work by killing these bishops, and have been sent by the one who waits. At the beginning, we (lamb and one who waits)are assumed to be the good guys, however once you get to silk cradle, shamura starts telling you what happens, and it sort of turns into bad vs bad. Then once you fight narinder, you have eliminated one bad, you find him left and makes you the deity now.
I feel like Lamb is killing the Bishops for his own agenda as vengeance for being sacrificed and for his people that was slaughtered, or doing the work of the one who waits depending on what the players motivation is. Then Lamb naturally rebels against the one who waits since he is no different than the other Bishops who want to use Lamb and kill him.
Slapped harder than uuh... *finds something original* SCREW it, your music slaps hard, thank you for changing my favorite song from mainly Fnf to this, I'm FREE!
Is it just me or is the main leitmotiv the one in Faith Up? I didn't go through the OST again to see if that tune is present in other tracks, but as someone who loves narratives told through music, that's so cool! I haven't played the game yet, so I don't know the details of the story, but if Faith Up plays at the Lamb's base hosting their followers, and the track "TOWW" plays when we fight him, this could imply that this soothing chant repeated in the safe haven is way more than that: it's a fighting incantation that was merely being taught to unsuspecting believers as an innocent choir song until its power needs to be unleashed (a bit like the magic spells taught to Sheeta in Castle in the Sky). But TOWW also sings this chant as a counter, so it could also mean that just like Lamb's powers, it was given to them by TOWW. Using his own spells against him, a bit daring, possibly dangerous if TOWW knows how to turn it against Lamb. Just thinking stuff up, as I said I barely know anything, but it definitely makes me want to play the game once I have the time and a better computer.
This has to be the chillest final boss theme I’ve ever heard and we’re talking about fighting literal god of death here. Haven’t brought the game yet but this may be just the push I need to seal the deal
"Return the crown to it's rightful bearer, all that remains is for you to lay down your life so I may return to my former glory above life itself" Yes -----> No "You insolent, insegnificant worm... I gave you a second chance at life and you will soon find out that all can be taken away as easily!"
Even though Narinder was betrayed by the lamb, Im sure that there is some peace he can get from finally being free. Well, depends on the player ofcourse…
satan: *chilling on his throne* *this song starts playing* satan: WHY DO I HEAR BOSS MUSIC?! me: *bursts the doors open* SUP BUDDY HAHAHHAHAHHAHA!!!!!! satan: *starts screaming like a little girl*
Now we are here, my little Vessel, my chains are no longer, for I am free. Narinder, the one who waits No longer do I wait for my chains are shattered, The crown you wear is rightfully mine, So give it to me and I will make short process with you, Little lamb, your destiny was laid in your cradle, Eons before you were born, your fate was woven Thousands of years, you have no idea, my siblings betrayed me Called my idiology wrong, but it was Shamura who opened my eyes The old faith can no longer dwell in this world. Can't you see it, lamb? The crown, it yells for me, asks for my head. Narinder, the one who waits, No longer do I wait for my chains are shattered, The crown you wear is rightfully mine, So give it to me and I will make short process with you, Lamb, submit or know what it means to incur the wrath of the god of death There can only be one who wears the black crown, Lamb
Used to have no combat knowledge, depending on the game you play a bunch of days pass, in my case that I took it slow and enjoyed each part it took 100 in game days.
I really think they would’ve been better off naming this track “false prophet”. It would fit cause 1: Narinder calls the lamb a “false prophet” 2:due to us fighting him, and ya know…taking over his role, he’d become the false prophet, the entire song is set up for our fight against him, so this makes more sense to me

Also lamb: Why do i hear boss music?
I think that's the opposite
THE LAMB IS THE FINAL BOSS
GLORY TO THE LAMB 😈
@nadgel5939 the one who waits: wait minutes why I am hearing boss music?!
I like when the lamb said "Its cult'in time" then proceeded to swing His axe at the one who wait's.
Oh yeah I also loved the part where Morbius had to help him
@@PAMA_mcsm Agreed upon
@@PAMA_mcsm When morbius helped the lamb...damn that scene was legendary
@@inakiberumen8209 I KNOW RIGHT?!
Didn't he proceed to Cult all over the one who waits as well
I like how Narinder had his final straw with us and then dropped this banger while my anxiety took over because I had only 3 hearts left. I kept this song on my Spotify playlist and it’s still there along with the exploration themes too.
By the time I got to his last form I was on half a heart 😅
@msdanteng FR I WAS PANICKING
The One Who Waits: IM UNSTOPPABLE! IMMORTAL! I. AM. DEATH!!!!
Random Lamb: are you sure about that?
This kind of reminds of the final boss from Donkey Kong Country Returns and that OST freaking ate...
For ones saying this boss was weak,it was perfect for me. Like in Dark souls 1,the final boss is Gwyn, which is just the freakin most empowered thing in the universe...But he seems different,a fallen creature that one time was more than a god.
The exact same happens here,you are fighting a creature that waited milleniums for something good,that asked for your sacrifice. This isn't Narinder anymore,but a creature in ruins that sometime was one of the 5 most powerful things to ever exist,a consequence of his own action. I love it.
It was weak before the update, after the update the fight became amazing
@@ArceTheTroll lmao i cannot replay it
Or i can now? Need to reinstall it
None of what you just said has anything to do with the difficulty of the fight
@@Fo0516 yes but it would be a cool detail If the dificultou was due to his years stuck, and not just "easy because easy"
@@Fo0516 It does if you were paying any attention lol. They're saying the underwhelming difficulty is okay.
this music (whole ost) makes my brain go brrrr in the best way. it's quickly become a favourite and will be in my playlists for months. very very very fun and vibe-y!! amazing fucking job!!
also, i need to hear any future projects you make!!!
I'm not sure if you intended for this, but I had an interesting take on the choirs? Chanting? I dunno I'm gonna call em choirs.
The deeper, more evil sounding choir could represent The One Who Waits, being a giant deity and all. The deep choir takes the lead in the song, being the first voice you hear, setting a menacing mood for the battle. This is after all, the fight against the one those vocals represent.
Then there's the higher pitched, more human-ish choir, which represents The Lamb. These vocals are less powerful at the beginning compared to The One Who Waits, having less presence compared to the deep choir. The Dark Choir even overtakes the light choir during the middle of the song, but like before, is overpowered by the light choir for the remaining segment of the loop. Whenever the light choir takes over, it gains a doubled layer on itself, seemingly empowered by an unseen force.
This track is literally the two figures of power, The One Who Waits and The Lamb, fighting while they're actually fighting in game, and personally I find that amazing.
I'm not sure if this was the intended effect but if it was, it proves that you are a musical genius, great work River Boy!
This is a perfect interpretation, I had not even thought if it that way
Wait that's actually a really great analysis??? Now that you mention it, you can hear Narindar's growls here in the OST Sacrfice. Probably indicating that all these sacrfices are made in his name
The Bishops of the Old Faith were quite prominent in the old days. They seemed to work together. To be kind to one another. To appreciate one another’s help, regardless of how much one hated another. But it wasn’t long until that changed.
The 5th sibling, Narinder, wasn’t happy. He instead, after being gifted the Red Crown by one of his siblings, to use it to create his own cult. But it wouldn’t be easy.
Eventually, his siblings figured out what was going on, and tried to banish the Beast That Was Once a Bishop. They succeeded in doing so, but not without consequence.
Leshy, the youngest of the siblings, wanted the approval of the rest. And because of that wanting, it led to him losing his eyes.
Heket, the next, was regarded as “The Voice of the Old Faith. And, as revenge, Narinder slit her throat. Even though this wouldn’t rid her of her voice, the wound wouldn’t leave.
Kallamar was the next one. He was the first one to figure it out, to try and warn his siblings. But nobody listened. And, as if it were some sort of joke, he wouldn’t be listening either, as he would be the one to lose his ears.
And finally, Shamura. She was the wisest and oldest of the siblings, the one that gave Narinder the Red Crown originally. And she took the worst injury of them all, as her skull was shattered, leaving her brain vulnerable. With this, she gained pain and revelations that would be important.
Narinder was sealed away. Bound to his own realm, tied up by four chains, each one guarded by a bishop. It seemed like it was over. But it wasn’t.
Shamura received a prophecy. That the Sacrificial Lamb would come to kill the bishops and free Narinder, now known by a different name. Heket and Leshy immediately decided to hunt down every single lamb, until only one remained. Kallamar, still terrified of his bound brother, his in his territory, Ancheodeep.
Eventually, the last lamb was taken to the sacrificial pedestal. But the bishops made a miscalculation. They killed it, sending it to the realm of death. What they failed to realize was that that was the realm of Narinder himself.
Narinder, following the prophecy, gave the lamb his prized possession, the Red Crown. The Lamb followed his instructions, killing each of the four bishops. But when finally close to being free, the lamb refused to give the crown back.
Enraged and filled with betrayal, he sent out his two “sons” to kill it. They both failed. He then went for his last resort. Fighting the lamb head on.
Narinder, the Beast That Once Was a Bishop.
Narinder, the sibling that gouged Leshys eyes out.
Narinder, the sibling that slit Hekets throat.
Narinder, the sibling that sliced Kallamars ears off.
Narinder, the sibling who shattered Shamuras skull.
Narinder, the sibling bound for over a millennia.
Narinder, the sibling who finished what he had started: by killing his siblings.
No, not Narinder.
The One Who Waits.
Shamura is they/them nonbinary, that's not up for debate
@@victoriaasenjo524 I love how of all the things that can be discussed in this comment, you just decided to point out the gender of Shamura

Do I feel like if everyone forgets to say that actually River boy is a great musician.
And he did a great job with the whole ost.
For real, the last banger full game soundtrack I heard like that was Persona 5
I love this game, I actually finished the game by defeating The One Who Waits today!
I am literally trying to harvest blue hearts so I can get past that stupid part where Narimder becomes an eldritch and starts creating fireball walls. It's always the one from below that brings me to half a heart.
@@higgz2036 roll
Did you spare him or kill him?

We defeating the one who waits with this one🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥
This is amazing. Flow and the beat!! FEELS GOOD AS HELL!!
TOWW: “Lamb you’ve been a good sheep but time to give cat daddy his toys back so he can be free.”
Lamb, cocking blunderbuss with murderous intent: “THIS IS NOT A DEMOCRACY! I HAVE A GUN, *THAT MEANS IM IN-CHARGE!* “
suchh a good song for such a good ost. i somehow don't get tired of the constant usage of the choir voices and that amazes me
That music started playing when i said "no' to My mother haha
"BE GONE, LAMB! I SHALL REGAIN MY POWER AND THE CROWN OF THE WORLD ITSELF! YOUR SUBJECTS ARE NO LONGER THE CULT OF THE LAMB!"
Narinder: well done my most devout follower, you've done a great job freeing me, now i just need you to give back that crown
Lamb: yeah... well about that... personally, i think it looks better on me
just finished this game and it was a fucking rollercoaster! The bosses and the enemies were so hard and that’s what made this game so good! Thanks Devolver for such a badass game!
"Did you really think yourself above a god?"
*Says the man who hired us to kill four already*
The chanting-singing stuff in all this music has been great, *but this demonic chanting is insane.*
Gotta admit this song is such a banger
Holy shit the final theme goes fucking raw-
"The crown cannot sit upon two brows"
Doesn't say which one its required to sit on.
Perfect track for battling an eldritch chthonic monstrosity of a death god in the bowels of Hell!
this makes me feel a certain way about the fight now, the god who gives you a chance to then betray you, but their are still mixed feeling toward him in a way, it kinda feels like when you find out your father is the bad guy and you personally are the only one to take him down, but he is still your father..you're doing the right thing but but you still emotionally attached towards him.
singing together as you both must leave alone. and be only one victor
Ironically is what Shamura directly warns you about. He said that Narinder betrayed the Bishops and even brought a follower to turn against you just to give you a taste of how Narinder will betray you will feel like. Even the beggining text of the game warns you about a crown being unable to fit on two heads.
Sparing him, make him join your cult, MARRY HIM
I wish mega satan in the binding of isaac had a big theme like this, instead of just reusing hericide
otherwise. love this song so much, best in the soundtrack
I know this comment is old, but modding isaac to have cult of the lamb soundtrack sounds fire
Narinder:YOU WILL GIVE ME WHAT IS MINE BY RIGHT LAMB!
lamb:...no. im done being a pawn. In only a few weeks,i made the woods run red in blood,and now bear a place for all.
The one who waits will wait no longer. Because you will fall. You want My crown? Come and take it. Lets see whos truely worthy. I am the new god of death,and no crown can sit upon 2 brows.
Narinder:you dare!? I WILL FLAY YOUR SOUL FROM YOUR CORPSE!
Lamb:you will try. And you,will. *FALL.*
Narinder: "Cool i can have my crown back"
Lamb: "Damn thats crazy, anyways imma fold you"
Honestly I feel like Lamb would give the crown back easily if the requirement wasn't death and he was simply promised rewards for his service. Keeping his cult in the name of the one who waits and keeping some power even if Narinder would hold most of the power. Then Narinder could kill lamb or stick to his promises. He was just too overconfident to see just how powerful Lamb had become.
I really love how back and forth the story goes. You are supposedly doing holy work by killing these bishops, and have been sent by the one who waits. At the beginning, we (lamb and one who waits)are assumed to be the good guys, however once you get to silk cradle, shamura starts telling you what happens, and it sort of turns into bad vs bad. Then once you fight narinder, you have eliminated one bad, you find him left and makes you the deity now.
I feel like Lamb is killing the Bishops for his own agenda as vengeance for being sacrificed and for his people that was slaughtered, or doing the work of the one who waits depending on what the players motivation is. Then Lamb naturally rebels against the one who waits since he is no different than the other Bishops who want to use Lamb and kill him.
This song is so fire it should be considered arson 🔥
Slapped harder than uuh...
*finds something original*
SCREW it, your music slaps hard, thank you for changing my favorite song from mainly Fnf to this, I'm FREE!
I'm guilty of jamming to this
What?
I hope someday we get a way to refrigerate this guy. It’s the one boss fight you can’t replay as of now and that’s sad because it’s so fun
Is it just me or is the main leitmotiv the one in Faith Up? I didn't go through the OST again to see if that tune is present in other tracks, but as someone who loves narratives told through music, that's so cool!
I haven't played the game yet, so I don't know the details of the story, but if Faith Up plays at the Lamb's base hosting their followers, and the track "TOWW" plays when we fight him, this could imply that this soothing chant repeated in the safe haven is way more than that: it's a fighting incantation that was merely being taught to unsuspecting believers as an innocent choir song until its power needs to be unleashed (a bit like the magic spells taught to Sheeta in Castle in the Sky).
But TOWW also sings this chant as a counter, so it could also mean that just like Lamb's powers, it was given to them by TOWW. Using his own spells against him, a bit daring, possibly dangerous if TOWW knows how to turn it against Lamb. Just thinking stuff up, as I said I barely know anything, but it definitely makes me want to play the game once I have the time and a better computer.
The one who waits be like : how are you so stong lamb?!
My brother in old faith you literally gave him your crown
Bro this track goes dummy hard
Me when I wait
When I'm in a waiting competition and my Opponent is narinder
This has to be the chillest final boss theme I’ve ever heard and we’re talking about fighting literal god of death here. Haven’t brought the game yet but this may be just the push I need to seal the deal
"Return the crown to it's rightful bearer, all that remains is for you to lay down your life so I may return to my former glory above life itself"
Yes -----> No
"You insolent, insegnificant worm... I gave you a second chance at life and you will soon find out that all can be taken away as easily!"
this song sounds to me like a sort of mix between baal's and aym's themes. the melody part from baal's, and the vocals from ayms.
THIS ACTUALLY SLAPS
"Its just backround music dont make it hit to hard" type ah soundtrack
and for my next phase... I am a flower.
Even though Narinder was betrayed by the lamb, Im sure that there is some peace he can get from finally being free. Well, depends on the player ofcourse…
Im still waiting
this, first son baal and praise the lamb are probably my favorites. thinking about lamb god
This beat go crazy
The song hit heard
This is the only bishop theme that hasn't been remixed.
They are planning something...
Or I'm just going more insane than Sharmura
satan: *chilling on his throne*
*this song starts playing*
satan: WHY DO I HEAR BOSS MUSIC?!
me: *bursts the doors open* SUP BUDDY HAHAHHAHAHHAHA!!!!!!
satan: *starts screaming like a little girl*
Earthworm jim in cult of the lamb!
Two player is coming to COTL!
narinder: can i have my crown back?
lamb: nah
narinder: bruh.
Holy hell this is good
Now we are here, my little Vessel,
my chains are no longer,
for I am free.
Narinder, the one who waits
No longer do I wait for my chains are shattered,
The crown you wear is rightfully mine,
So give it to me and I will make short process with you,
Little lamb, your destiny was laid in your cradle,
Eons before you were born, your fate was woven
Thousands of years, you have no idea, my siblings betrayed me
Called my idiology wrong, but it was Shamura who opened my eyes
The old faith can no longer dwell in this world.
Can't you see it, lamb? The crown, it yells for me, asks for my head.
Narinder, the one who waits,
No longer do I wait for my chains are shattered,
The crown you wear is rightfully mine,
So give it to me and I will make short process with you,
Lamb, submit or know what it means to incur the wrath of the god of death
There can only be one who wears the black crown, Lamb
Lamb is like: "finish, i killed him, now, lets play GOW, KILL MORE GODS!"
Banger
When Narinder was imprisoned, The 4 siblings set to kill or convert every one of his followers. Although one follower proved to be very problematic.
I am not one to laugh in the face of death… however, I will stare at him in defiance…
sounds like Narinder spitting bars
Imagine being killed by a small lamb with no combat knowledge
Used to have no combat knowledge, depending on the game you play a bunch of days pass, in my case that I took it slow and enjoyed each part it took 100 in game days.
I really think they would’ve been better off naming this track “false prophet”. It would fit cause
1: Narinder calls the lamb a “false prophet”
2:due to us fighting him, and ya know…taking over his role, he’d become the false prophet, the entire song is set up for our fight against him, so this makes more sense to me
He calls Lamb "False Idol" not prophet. As in the one who claims the spot of Godhood not the messenger
@@cloudshifterProbably should be called False Idol then
This honestly fits as a theme for The Lamb in general
rename him to "the one who serves" after you recruit him
I stayed with the one who waites because he's still waiting,for the mercy of the lamb >:)
i just named him narinder bro 😭
My soul left mybody
I love this so much
only thing i wish is that it was longer
En ingles: The One Who Waits
But en español: Aquel Que Espera
Español thegrefg: El Chabal De Las Esperanzas
XD
Maybe if Narinder asked just for crown and spared Lamb's life things might went differently
See no, Speak no, Hear no, Think no..., EVIL!
You forgot the final one, Do no...
I feel that the names of the themes should be reversed, this theme feels more like "narinder", and phase one feels more like "the one who waits"
No it's exactly how it should be. First you face Narinder, then you face his actual title, the one who waits, the God death.
How dare you in-prison Heno! All my other followers I don’t care about, but heno? Your going down
Ale banger
Que buena canción para un jefe final muy difícil 😎
the british are coming.
Dam i remember daying over over over
He really thinks the lamb would die again when they are the last of their kind?
