Welcome back to the Helldivers 2 community. Here's a highlights video of my three favorite songs from the past two HD2 livestreams. Here are the channel guidelines so your expectations are set for what kind of content I'm willing to do and what I'm not, I value boundaries and I hope you respect that. bit.ly/read-channel-rules Suggest the next songs: bit.ly/content-suggest
You have GOT to listen to the leaked illuminate combat theme. Absolute banger and probably my favorite from the soundtrack, save for maybe a cup of libertea
@@dapperpotato4243 Second this. It's a very sci-fi, spooky, almost hopeless theme that really signifies just how hopelessly overmatched a Helldiver is against an Illuminate. Definitely one of my favorites in the game (or not yet anyways).
@@fregatta9243 you're comment is considered treason as it does not align with Ministry of Truth's Honesty Guidelines. A democracy officer has been dispatched to your location.
And sometimes absolutely nobody shows up to attack you, but you still can't hear it well because your bored teammates are throwing stratagems into the abyss. 😂
@@kingblackheart919 And to top it off, it's actually the most dynamic of the tracks you hear in game - it's built up from different segments in sync with the level of threat, you can actually tell what's coming up based on which it's picking!
*Super Earth has reviewed this video and found it to be within acceptable democratic spirit.* *A Democracy officer will be calling you shortly to talk about your recruitment.*
I'm a veteran and served for over 14 years in the Navy and Army Natl guard. Let me tell you, there is no other game for me that best captures the esprit de corps of serving with your brothers in arms. It's about fighting with you buddy at your side. Been there, done that, and something I missed since I got out. Until HD 2.
@@fiercedogfilms6135 No CAS, at least not like in Helldivers. The swarm thing is cool... but there's almost too many enemies for tactics to really play a role. Not bad, but not the same military feeling of Helldivers by a long shot.
an instrumental version of the super earth anthem plays while you raise its flag for one of the missions, the sheer amount of democracy you feel while being swarmed by bugs, protecting the flag with the anthem in the background is overwhelming
I love Liber-tea so much. I forget who said it, but I remember someone had described it where since liber-tea is playing when you enter a drop and while you plunge into the planet, but once you get out of your pod and look around the music fades away, revealing the hell you just dove into its like liber-tea directly shows you what you are in reality once you land, all the propaganda and everything gets stripped away, and that lull of a violin starts to play as reality sets in that you probably aren't walking off this planet you dont get to hear the rest of the song, it simply never gets played you never get that hopeful, 'worth fighting for' ending all you get is war
@@doorsday147 so we'll said. I'm sure many soldiers in the past got this in a slow manner of course. But even more horrifying when they realize they are fighting other humans just like them.
Yeah, same. I do enjoy the songs when deployed, but they're starting sound like a slog after hearing them at least a thousand times now. Unfortunately, the game doesn't let me play my Spotify at the same time.
@Kraton_ The Ministry of Truth would like to remind you no hearing loss spreading the conclusive explosion of freedom is service related. Just your duty as a Super Citizen. -M.O.T. Information. Verification. Enforcement. Service.
If you wanna continue with helldivers music, you could check out the combat music for the different enemy factions. They have varying levels of intensity, depending on the set difficulty of the mission, the alert status of the enemies, and how many you're currently fighting. Those factions are the Terminids, the Automatons, and -the currently unreleased but upcoming Illuminate- [MESSAGE IS CURRENTLY UNDER REVIEW FOR TREASON]
13:50, you can just so clearly hear "pelican one arriving to landing spot, clear the area" as well as the ship landing a few seconds later. The sound quality is just insane
My favorite memory of HD2 was when I and my squad finally made it to extraction on a Super Helldive bug mission. We called in the shuttle, and I look over the ridge, and… I now know why they call them ‘waves’ of enemies. It was a sea of bugs, all crawling along the hillside towards us. It was so epic.
I love how the anthem drops subtle hints in the lyrics of how Super Earth is a authoritarian- I mean, erm, managed and democratic unity. EDIT: I absolutely love Managed Democracy! After spending [REDACTED] days in a local freedom camp, I came out more patriotic than ever! My life for Super Earth!
The soundtrack is so fucking good. Dropping on a planet *NEVER* gets old. And the Extraction Theme always does its job. The "Last Stand" feeling is exactly how it feels in game, you must hold litteral swarms of ennemies waiting for the dropship to pick you up at the extraction point. It's just so on point.
"The queue music is not meant to be heard in its entirety." Oh brother, oh brother that first week. The PTSD, the nostalgia. The Democracy. (They did an exceptional job across the board with the soundtrack. Wrapped everything in an action movie orchestra to make the visuals, the tension... just -pop-)
Yes! The extraction music is epic, tense and thrilling as all hell! You got it exactly right, it is a sort of a last stand music, because this track plays at the very end of your mission, where you need to get to an extraction point and there you call in a pilot to come for you. This starts a timer for his arrival and during this time you must defend yourself as a team from endless hordes of giant bugs or armies of heavily armored and even more heavily armed automaton robots!
My favourite memory in game is me and two teammates standing at the flag listening to the anthem while our 4th teammate fought for his life on a hill about 200 metres away lol
11:05 when a game has good lobby music, such as dying light 1’s main menu music. it is simply illegal to skip it immediately. i shall almost always stop before playing to admire the masterpieces
"Last stand"-you nailed it! A medley of all these bars plays dynamically when you call for the extract dropship at the end of a mission. The beacon also brings on an onslaught of enemies and your team fights for their lives until the dropship arrives. If any of you make it, that triumphant reprise of the main theme swells as the ship whisks you back to orbit-and out of the combat zone below as it's overrun with enemies. Epic every time!
@@Y_ooKang If you think about it, we are in control of many, many planets. Every planet has people living there, so we have many, many helldivers. Sadly, that also means every planet we lose, many, many people die.
it is this one thing, when we called in an extraction that makes us feel like we're going back home, to super earth and yes, the extraction theme delivered it
To be compared to John Williams must be such an honor, but you make a great point! The composer, Wilbert Roget II, has been involved in the making of the music for 9 Star Wars Games and 2 Indiana Jones games : )
god that string solo in Cup of Liber-tea ALWASY gets me tearing up. Absolutely gorgeous synthy orchestral, relaly solidified why i love the genre so much
I don't know how many times that extraction theme has played (Level 150) - but it never gets old in the sense that it always manages to illicit that same "oh shit, oh crap, oh shit, HOLD THE LINE!" kinda moment that the first time hearing it did. (maybe to a lesser degree, but it's still THERE.)
I never realized how much the Extraction music affected me until you hit play. I immediately got ready for a fight... Increased heart rate and alertness. LOL
[Sees him vibing to the first track] Yeah, say what you want about this game's ups and downs, the soundtrack will be the undisputed thing about it that EVERYONE will remember.
@@final_destin4tion Against bugs when they swarm and you are on a high ridge with3 randoms (Jetpacks are so AWESOME) and you all know what to do is the most democratic thing EVER!
You nailed the Extraction perfectly during gameplay it’s technically 3 parts, Let me paint a picture for those of you that might not know, you are a team of 4, you run up to the beacon, input the code and you now have 2 mins of chaos as the game throws wave after wave of Giant bugs or murderous terminator style robots at you. Massive explosions and gunfire in every direction all the while you hear in your coms the pilot counting down until the ship arrives, at 15:48 when you say key change is part 2 that is where you have made it onto the ship and it’s leaving the planet, and you see your scores for that mission. And the final part 17:08 is when you see your team on the lift and see the team does a victory pose.
What I find remarkable, is the fact that he identified the exact moment when the scores are displayed, only through listening to the music. It's that good!
I love how in the extraction theme, the moments deeper into the music signifies how bad things are going with. The strings alone add to the tension and you know If you hear those it means extraction went terribly wrong. The price of perfection is infinite, yet the sound team at Arrowhead somehow did it.
I play Helldivers 2 Almost daily, the feeling of DEMOCRACY in everything you do is awesome. You need yo react to the intro sometime! Great video man, love the way you express on the soundtracks.
this is the first time ive seen your video. beautifully and elequently discribed from just hearing the music from helldivers 2. this brought me joy to watch
Every game is like this epic tense cinematic humorous masterpiece of chaos, their passion for the game shows even if it caused them to friendly fire themselves for a while there, but they're bringing the game back to its golden age, we are so back
I started listening to some tracks of it recently and now became in awe of the whole score and I can't stop listening to it wherever I go. Just the variety and energy it brings from it's main leitmotif in Cup of Liber-Tea, Hellpods Primed, Welcome to the Fight and Mission Review is so grand and energetic and the Extraction track excites me up fr. I don't have the game yet, but I'll can't wait to experience the gameplay on top of an already exhilarating and amazing soundtrack by Wilbert.
I just love when score in games ties so well with gameplay and creates memorable moments. When great music works in tandem with the game it's an amazing feeling. And you can hear gameplay sound effects "missing" during key parts from your personal memorable moments.
I'm a ver active helldiver. I loved these songs way too much, however! Listening to that extract song while driving. Filled me with so much.. Energy. That little crescendo with the violin getting high pitched made me just want to speed up. I can hear it allot better now that I want focusing on staying alone in those last moments, funny enough. I could hear the pelican coming in for a landing even though it's not there... Just in my head hah. Loved your reactions, (first time seeing your video)
I highly recommend listening to the extract theme while looking at a long extraction end of a mission. The music gives you this last man standing and it's incredibly satisfying when you finally win
The main theme def has this initial hype (this is the music that plays at the start of a mission while you are flying down from orbit in your drop pods after all), and then it goes quiet and kind of mournful, like you've suffered losses and are pushing through. Then at the end it picks up again as if celebrating a victory while acknowledging the lives lost. It takes you on a journey.
Bro…you were so on point on everything. If you ever play the game, you will see that it fits every scenario especially that “last stand” whether you “make it or break it”. Love this video!
the extract theme has so much more too it, it dynamically changes with what's happening in game, ive seen the 14 min super cut where someone tried to piece together all the queues, love that song
By far the best music review channel. No excessive talking, speaks facts about the music and what each part makes the listener feel and what each instrument represents, respectfully criticizes the music, and no over the top facial expressions that some people find cringe. Like and sub earned!
my favorite part of the extraction theme is its dynamic, there are different iterations of each part and change depending on enemy count and living players
"This feels like a last stand music" You nailed it. Most extractions are a desperate defense against near-endless waves of enemies while you're waiting for the shuttle to pick you up. I don't often get super "into" games but during extraction i've shouted at friends "GET IN THE SHUTTLE GO GO GO COME ON!!"
You probably already know this but a lot of the music inspiration came from the Basil Poledouris’ “Klendathu Drop” from the film StarShip Troopers with a more up beat melody.
This is my first time at your channel but I am very impressed by how well you sized up the events of the game by its music. Will definitely be coming back for more of your take on sound tracks. Top notch!
Hearing these in my new headphones is incredible!! I can hear every last detail, and that's just of a video, through a video. Hearing it in game is just as rewarding 😍
The Extraction theme is my favorite purely for the drums it sounds so awesome when you're fighting for you're life trying to extract especially with all the stratagems blowing up
As someone with 400 hours in the game (as a musician) the first thing I noticed even just in the trailer back in December of last year when they teased the games release, I noticed the music, and was fascinated, it reminded me of games from the early 2000s that I grew up with that had so much passion… it’s awesome
Oh my ! I don't have the game and didn't even watch any video about it (except this one), and now I want to join the fight alongside my brothers in arms ! The power of music is crazy 😵
I can't help but mention: Wth Cup of Liberty ( and many other sound tracks actually) The game play times events to the music, so the Drop on cup of Liberty is accompanied by your hellpods shooting from the ship, causing a thunderous boom. It hightens the emotional impact of the moment, literally making the players part of the song as they are an instrument. Once you hear it in game it simply doesn't have the same feel or impact after that
starting part 'for super earth!!!!!' middle part 'all air support on cooldown seem we gonna lose' and finally another helldiver join the mission hope is coming
Hearing the extraction theme INSTANTLY gets my mind into a sort of hyper focus mode because of how many chaotic helldivers extractions I’ve been through lol
Hey, just so you know Chris christodoulou made more music for the new dlc for Risk of Rain 2 and it is just as good as the previous music. I recommend checking it out if you haven’t already.
One of the main reasons I play this game besides the excellent combat simulation overall is the music. Dropping from space with this music is something great. It is also great bg music for working, giving you the boost and relaxing you at the same time.
You got it with that extraction music. As it begins your hearing the pilot giving you his eta to extraction. Even as the first waves of enemies begin assaulting the landing zone. There's only four of you, if everyone survived to this point, and the enemies are legion. Wave after wave crashes down on you. Your cover will be blown away in explosions, and large enemies simply crushing them. The pilot radios in, they are close now. More enemies slam into you, your squad makes are calling out last mags, their weapons are out of ammo, no more stims. Your airsupport is forced to leave as they are out of ammo. Finally the ship arrived, peppering the LZ with heavy fire, your dodging it all, returning fire where you can until touch down. Everyone scrambles into the hatch. I love that music. ^-^
Don't know who had the idea and will to make this game so over the top epic and cinematic, but those people need to be praised a lot more. Not only the soundtrack is bombastic, the visuals don't have to hide. Overall a piece of art while tearing everything into pieces ingame

I started listening to some tracks of it recently and now became in awe of the whole score and I can't stop listening to it wherever I go. Just the variety and energy it brings from it's main leitmotif in Cup of Liber-Tea, Hellpods Primed, Welcome to the Fight and Mission Review is so grand and energetic and the Extraction track excites me up fr. I don't have the game yet, but I'll can't wait to experience the gameplay on top of an already exhilarating and amazing soundtrack by Wilbert.
I just love when score in games ties so well with gameplay and creates memorable moments.
When great music works in tandem with the game it's an amazing feeling.
And you can hear gameplay sound effects "missing" during key parts from your personal memorable moments.
I'm a ver active helldiver. I loved these songs way too much, however! Listening to that extract song while driving. Filled me with so much.. Energy. That little crescendo with the violin getting high pitched made me just want to speed up. I can hear it allot better now that I want focusing on staying alone in those last moments, funny enough. I could hear the pelican coming in for a landing even though it's not there... Just in my head hah. Loved your reactions, (first time seeing your video)
I highly recommend listening to the extract theme while looking at a long extraction end of a mission. The music gives you this last man standing and it's incredibly satisfying when you finally win
The main theme def has this initial hype (this is the music that plays at the start of a mission while you are flying down from orbit in your drop pods after all), and then it goes quiet and kind of mournful, like you've suffered losses and are pushing through. Then at the end it picks up again as if celebrating a victory while acknowledging the lives lost. It takes you on a journey.
Bro…you were so on point on everything. If you ever play the game, you will see that it fits every scenario especially that “last stand” whether you “make it or break it”. Love this video!
the extract theme has so much more too it, it dynamically changes with what's happening in game, ive seen the 14 min super cut where someone tried to piece together all the queues, love that song
By far the best music review channel. No excessive talking, speaks facts about the music and what each part makes the listener feel and what each instrument represents, respectfully criticizes the music, and no over the top facial expressions that some people find cringe. Like and sub earned!
my favorite part of the extraction theme is its dynamic, there are different iterations of each part and change depending on enemy count and living players
you should definetly listen to "The Automaton Legion" it sounds like such a corrupted version of Super Earth style music with Robotic elements.
Yeasss
You need to look up the automaton battle music with choir. I do not want to see what that accompanies. Not currently in the game.
That anthem is awesome! Man do I want to play helldivers when I can next year

He really was feeling the democracy coursing through his veins with his reaction to Liber-tea
HOW ARE YOU UNDER A MILLION SUBS? Been seeing you for like five years now, can we please give this man what he is owed?
You know you've had the hd2 music off for a long time when you start tearing up when you hear it again.
"This feels like a last stand music" You nailed it. Most extractions are a desperate defense against near-endless waves of enemies while you're waiting for the shuttle to pick you up. I don't often get super "into" games but during extraction i've shouted at friends "GET IN THE SHUTTLE GO GO GO COME ON!!"
You probably already know this but a lot of the music inspiration came from the Basil Poledouris’ “Klendathu Drop” from the film StarShip Troopers with a more up beat melody.
Isnt there a Klendathu Planet in HD2?

@@Doomguy_74 Yeah that one! Couldn't remember the name.
This is my first time at your channel but I am very impressed by how well you sized up the events of the game by its music. Will definitely be coming back for more of your take on sound tracks. Top notch!
Hearing these in my new headphones is incredible!! I can hear every last detail, and that's just of a video, through a video. Hearing it in game is just as rewarding 😍
everytime I hear that music when you start the missions I get goosebumps
The Extraction theme is my favorite purely for the drums it sounds so awesome when you're fighting for you're life trying to extract especially with all the stratagems blowing up
This track will never cease to get me hyped for the drop into a planet. Doesn't matter the enemy or the objective type.
your addition to "cup of liber-tea" was pretty cool
As someone with 400 hours in the game (as a musician) the first thing I noticed even just in the trailer back in December of last year when they teased the games release, I noticed the music, and was fascinated, it reminded me of games from the early 2000s that I grew up with that had so much passion… it’s awesome
Please listen to the combat themes. They are absolutely insane and probably my favorite game soundtracks of all time
Imagine the speaker inside of helldivers’ helmets actually play these songs! 🤯
You should listen to the themes of both the terminids and automatons from Helldivers 2, they slap tbh.
Hell, do one for the Illuminate one, someone leaked it and posted it on TH-cam.
@@Kentro-p8y especially the unused boss music for the bots
Have not played this game in months. The music drew me right back in. Going home to play.
after you were saved from naovice (factorio) super hearth was made and now we have helldivers 2
Oh my ! I don't have the game and didn't even watch any video about it (except this one), and now I want to join the fight alongside my brothers in arms !
The power of music is crazy 😵
Hell yes brother, we welcome you with open arms. We shall wait for you in the front lines
I can't help but mention: Wth Cup of Liberty ( and many other sound tracks actually) The game play times events to the music, so the Drop on cup of Liberty is accompanied by your hellpods shooting from the ship, causing a thunderous boom. It hightens the emotional impact of the moment, literally making the players part of the song as they are an instrument.
Once you hear it in game it simply doesn't have the same feel or impact after that
I can hear the Hellpods dropping and screaming through the atmosphere
starting part 'for super earth!!!!!'
middle part 'all air support on cooldown seem we gonna lose'
and finally another helldiver join the mission hope is coming

Hearing the extraction theme INSTANTLY gets my mind into a sort of hyper focus mode because of how many chaotic helldivers extractions I’ve been through lol
Woah! Woah! Woah!
This is some serious Deja-Vu!
Reupload?!?!?
@@benjaminrobledo5466 You're just part of the small 20%. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxwEohhwAANrMwtWG_odiVOGmIoWPOuS_5?si=cYTcOJ8-rJr3QavG
Hey, just so you know Chris christodoulou made more music for the new dlc for Risk of Rain 2 and it is just as good as the previous music. I recommend checking it out if you haven’t already.
Definitely a soundtrack highlight of the last few years, it sits among Dune and Alan Wake 2 for me.
The soundtrack is an epic addition to the most fun co-op game I've played in a very long time.
I don’t know if anyone’s said anything about it but in the extraction theme the trumpets and brass instruments feel like exchanging gunfire
One of the main reasons I play this game besides the excellent combat simulation overall is the music. Dropping from space with this music is something great. It is also great bg music for working, giving you the boost and relaxing you at the same time.
You got it with that extraction music. As it begins your hearing the pilot giving you his eta to extraction. Even as the first waves of enemies begin assaulting the landing zone.
There's only four of you, if everyone survived to this point, and the enemies are legion. Wave after wave crashes down on you. Your cover will be blown away in explosions, and large enemies simply crushing them.
The pilot radios in, they are close now. More enemies slam into you, your squad makes are calling out last mags, their weapons are out of ammo, no more stims. Your airsupport is forced to leave as they are out of ammo.
Finally the ship arrived, peppering the LZ with heavy fire, your dodging it all, returning fire where you can until touch down. Everyone scrambles into the hatch.
I love that music. ^-^
Really would like one for the first game too. It doesn't get enough recognition with 2 but has some great tracks in it
Oh, a remake? A saw a reaction video to the hell divers 2 Ost (without down pitch) from you months ago, which I really enjoyed.
Don't know who had the idea and will to make this game so over the top epic and cinematic, but those people need to be praised a lot more. Not only the soundtrack is bombastic, the visuals don't have to hide. Overall a piece of art while tearing everything into pieces ingame
