IIRC the story behind this song was Capcom requested no electric guitar and Casey Edwards went "hmm digital electric guitar isn't electric guitar lol" and he fuggin slayed the task
He was told only electric guitars in the chorus, so he used a fuzz bass for the rest. You're thinking of Mick Gordon and how DOOM's soundtrack came to be.
@@LBL_Edzer There's for sure some overlap, I just forget in what capacity. One of Casey's livestreams probably explains his work relation if there is one.
Was it this song, or was it Devil Trigger? I can't remember which song had the Capcom limits put on it and which one Casey had free reign to compose. Could have sworn Bury The Light was the one where he was allowed to do whatever
I love how he dances with the song. At 9:49, he starts his own solo and then leaves the stage to the original part at 10:40. Perfectly balanced, as it all things should be.
Holy God, at 8:35 onwards, when the song slows down and Toxic plays like it's a power ballad? Holy shit I got chills down my spine and tears in the corners of my eyes, I fucking love music, nothing else can make me feel like this!
you boutta kill a boss and he goes BURY THE LIIIIGHT DEEP WITHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN
I have never seen a "Bury The Light" reaction of someone playing with it just improvising and listening to catch on to the chord progressions. The original song actually doesn't have electric guitar in it, it's a distorted bass guitar and some crazy synths to mimic electric guitar! This whole video is EXACTLY what I imagine the song would sound like if Casey Edwards was allowed to use real electric guitar (he couldn't because electric guitar is a big part of Dante's theme and they wanted Vergil's to contrast, which it does perfectly), it would be even heavier than it is now and that's so satisfying. Incredible playing and I loved watching your jamming and improv, what an experience!
@@-antares_ Yeah, cuz Casey Edwards was allowed to use electric guitar ONLY in the chorus, that was a legit specification. The rest really is just distorted bass and synths.
This song gives me chills man, what a banger! The fact it's so long and it's not like it's a loop, it's just changing up for 9 minutes is amazing. Also your ability to play by ear even when the guitar stops and it's just voices, even being able to tell what note the voice is in and match it to where it doesn't sound out of place is amazing, from an outside perspective it's like the guitar is just an extension of your being. On the whole I love your play along videos, the extra guitar on top of the song itself makes for some cool renditions.
NOW IM FEELING MODIVATED. The TH-cam algorithm came at me with a banger, his addition to the song actually elevated this song. This song is so epic that there are countless remixes and covers because in essence, ever version of the song is cannon in my eyes, every time thing song gets played, the musician is burying their own light with their own version on the same epic song
Dude, never have a seen a jam so natural aside from Steve Vai composing a rock cover for Halo 2's theme over the original Halo theme. This was a joy to watch, and I couldn't help but smile through it all! Well played sir, you've gained a new fan!
I love how you react not only with your commentary but with your absolute shredding. It often feels like relistening to the song for the first time and it's amazing.
It's rare that I find such a masterly crafted song like this that still, after several years, still gives me goosebumps everytime I listed to it. Casey goddamn nailed it with this one. Not only this he masterfully crafted the song around Vergil's actual lore, but he also managed to make it a fucking banger. The only thing missing is a cover with your own spin on it. From the glimpse we got from you playing the song, please man, I think I speak for us all, make that cover. Victor's voice and your instrumentals are a mix made in heaven One thing's for sure tho, I think I'll stick around for a while. You're killing it
Justin here. Thanks for doing this! Your videos are awesome. The first video Lawredon showed me was your cover of Lineage of Clan and I was so shocked you hadn’t done Bury the Light yet. So thanks to you and Lawredon for making this happen. The react and jam was great. This was SSS
My god, id kill for a version of the song with that solo and a huge chunk of the overlay you got in while listening. I have not felt that kind of thrill from music in a LONG time. It's like I felt the blood in my veins for a moment-- just goddamned superb.
Gotta say 8:30 is probably my favorite part, I love how you did your own thing but still accompanied the bridge well, also I find it hilarious how it truly did MOTIVATE you and you had to go on a little shredding session at the end
Man it is incredible to just watch you jam to a song you aren't familiar with. Such a work of art. It was fun to see how you reacted to that key change in the main riff. Nobody is ever ready for that. This is such an incredible song with so much happening
I can tell you were having a really great time jamming to this song. I enjoyed every second of your reaction, and I look forward to your eventual cover regardless of how long it will take before you do so. Rock on! :D
Whenever I see you play my favorite songs like this, improvising and just having fun, it’s almost like listening to my favorite songs for the first time and it’s amazing! Almost feel like crying actually :’)
Good GOD DUDE! I've probably listened to this song over a hundred times. And I don't normally like people playing over songs, but somehow you sent me into full head banger mode! Youre freaking awesome!
Devil May Cry. A story about a family with two sons born from a union of a human and devil. When the devils came to get revenge on the one who batrayed them they slaughtered the parents. Leaving one child to cast away his demonic side, decrying anything to do with the powers that took away his parents and the other child to lament the weakness of his humanity, doing his best to seek power to no longer be that weak little boy. This is a ballad of the second child.
It's actually just the mother, Sparda was already gone by then and it's a consequence of being pure demon because separating the Demon World from Human World affects him severely.
I love how his fingers and body started moving of their own accord upon hearing how epic the song is and decided to add his own flavour of epicness🔥🔥😎(subbed 😉)
Hoooooooly shiiiiit, holy shit, holy shit. The fucking flavor you gave this song with your guitar solo was EPPPPIIIIICCCCC, dude. That was fucking WILD. Good shit.
I don't how you managed but you made this song even more epic than it was with your solo, you absolutely killed it, keep going man, you're an absolute DEMON with the guitar!
IIRC the story behind this song was Capcom requested no electric guitar and Casey Edwards went "hmm digital electric guitar isn't electric guitar lol" and he fuggin slayed the task
No Guitar Shredding? Sure. Violin Shredding it is.
He was told only electric guitars in the chorus, so he used a fuzz bass for the rest. You're thinking of Mick Gordon and how DOOM's soundtrack came to be.
Didn't Casey Edwards study under Mick Gordon?
@@LBL_Edzer There's for sure some overlap, I just forget in what capacity.

I'm motivated
Have been motivated even not paying child support
Did you sell the plastic chair to fund to pay for it?
Tax evasion is a crime Vergil!
The epitome of musicianship is bowing out to let other people have the limelight, when you play long enough you get a sense of when its coming.z
I'm impressed at the break at the end, where you played a solo and then the songs ACTUAL solo came in. Felt like some kind of duet, god damn!
Dude 10/10 I actually cried during the end I felt like I was experiencing the song again for the first time
Oh yeah, thanks for reminding me to shed tears, how silly of me to forget.
that's the magic of post hardcore vocals
Holy God, at 8:35 onwards, when the song slows down and Toxic plays like it's a power ballad? Holy shit I got chills down my spine and tears in the corners of my eyes, I fucking love music, nothing else can make me feel like this!
I love the original song but holy SHIT did you bring this from a 10/10 to a 100/10 with your added depth.
Man truly buried his light
Casey Edwards usually pops in the comments in these reactions, bet he'd really love this! Someone tweet this to him!
Give him a few days and he'll show up lol
@@GaminCatto I'm a year late, but did he ever see it?
@@TheNameCannotBeFound not that I've seen yet, we'll just have to keep on waiting
@@GaminCattostill hasn’t seen it yet unfortunately 🥲
9:56 Holy mother of god that was insane
I can chew rocks... and it almost got me :')
You know he's a skilled guitarist when he can't even listen to a good song for the first time without not jamming along with it😂😂😂
Just got DMC5 a few days ago and I'm playing it as Vergil with this song set on loop. It's an absolute blast.
you boutta kill a boss and he goes BURY THE LIIIIGHT DEEP WITHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN
bro u changed devil may cry to devil will cry
Absolutely fell in love with the lick at 10:21, You have an incredibly gifted set of ears my friend.

What are you talking about? There is electric guitar in Bury the Light chorus, pre final chorus, and the final chorus.
@@-antares_ Yeah, cuz Casey Edwards was allowed to use electric guitar ONLY in the chorus, that was a legit specification. The rest really is just distorted bass and synths.
I'm very surprised you hadn't reacted to this song yet! Amazing like always, and I'm glad somebody requested it!
👋 hey, what's the source of your pfp, if you don't mind me asking. It looks amazing
@@SpectreMkTwo Thank you for the compliment! It's art I drew of my vtuber. :)
@@CMY_Kat nice job 😮

Bro I just cried at the final solo guitar, that was... *SMOKING SEXY STYLE!*
6:13 this sounded so good, my god

9:00 your adaption skills are amazing. I heard it all the way through

Dude, your shredding blended so well I feel like Ive ascended by how MOTIVATED I feel
I love how you react not only with your commentary but with your absolute shredding. It often feels like relistening to the song for the first time and it's amazing.
You HADN'T heard this song yet? WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?
He did hear the drop at least, he said "I remember this" I believe.
10:15 This part dragged me to tears instantly.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Your solo is incredible. Props man.
this is one of the first songs I looked for when I started listening to you
It's rare that I find such a masterly crafted song like this that still, after several years, still gives me goosebumps everytime I listed to it.

Came for the reaction stayed for how good he is with the fucking guitar my god !!!!!!
that fucking solo on the crescendo, that was something else. the way you took turns with the original song felt like a duet
Justin here. Thanks for doing this! Your videos are awesome. The first video Lawredon showed me was your cover of Lineage of Clan and I was so shocked you hadn’t done Bury the Light yet. So thanks to you and Lawredon for making this happen. The react and jam was great. This was SSS
that was AWESOME, you went crazy at the end and made a legendarily epic song somehow even more intense and badass
My god, id kill for a version of the song with that solo and a huge chunk of the overlay you got in while listening. I have not felt that kind of thrill from music in a LONG time. It's like I felt the blood in my veins for a moment-- just goddamned superb.
I NEED you to do a full cover of that.
Gotta say 8:30 is probably my favorite part, I love how you did your own thing but still accompanied the bridge well, also I find it hilarious how it truly did MOTIVATE you and you had to go on a little shredding session at the end
The combo of your solo being followed by the song's was so damn good
WHAT IN THE FUCKING WORLD DID I HEARD??? THAT WAS AMAZING WOW, I NEED THIS VERSION ON SPOTIFY ASAP
6:47 dancing knight sync with the song
Just when I thought the song couldn’t get any better 😮💨, you absolutely killed it for a first listen. Please officially cover this
Yo that 3:20 part was just crazy how you add that in. Wish you do a cover on it with that in it
Man it is incredible to just watch you jam to a song you aren't familiar with. Such a work of art. It was fun to see how you reacted to that key change in the main riff. Nobody is ever ready for that. This is such an incredible song with so much happening
Your jamming such on point, rewatched this like 20-30 times!
Went absolutely NUTTY on this, good shit bro!
"that was hella sick"
*Proceeds to shred a lil impov*
I'd love to be able to do that, I'd literally do it all the time
I LOVE THE ADDED SHREDD BY YOU
I love how he’s so into the music he naturally supports the guitar solo instead of jumping on top of it. Real one.
This Is Real Motivation!!
THE APPROACHING STORM HIMSELF
10:40 was actually so sick how you played background guitar for the solo
bro i just want to say your the reason i started playing guitar thankyou for the content your a bad ass fret ripper my guy
damn i love how he plays with it, its even more epic!
Oh my god this is amazing. Dude you just earned a sub forever!!
Yo your solo was so sick and went so well with the song's actual solo right next to each other
I badly need a full song along of his shredding before the original solo. That just brings me to tears and motivated to full power. 💙
dude, i urgently need a cover with this guitar, it was extraordinary
I just assumed I gaslighted myself into thinking you heard this already.
God DAMN. This is what "reaction content" should be like. Absolutely FIRE
I can tell you were having a really great time jamming to this song. I enjoyed every second of your reaction, and I look forward to your eventual cover regardless of how long it will take before you do so. Rock on! :D
Loved the way you bring your input to this song. You are a certified badass with the guitar.🤩
Bro this was awesome you had me smiling the whole video. Makes me want to pick up my guitar and try to learn again.
Whenever I see you play my favorite songs like this, improvising and just having fun, it’s almost like listening to my favorite songs for the first time and it’s amazing! Almost feel like crying actually :’)
Good GOD DUDE! I've probably listened to this song over a hundred times. And I don't normally like people playing over songs, but somehow you sent me into full head banger mode! Youre freaking awesome!
Jesus!!!! This track was already so good. With your added level of depth this is now god tier....You need to make your own cover of this!
GoDDAMNNN THAT JAMMING THROUGHOUT THE SONG IS AWESOME I ENJOYED THE RIDE

Technically Vergil is the first child, but I know what u mean
thats so amazing how you can just play along to stuff like that. holy crap. you added to something already amazing and made it...extra amazing haha
Duuude! This was awesome! I had a very well spent lunch break listening to this. 🤘🏻
Could u make a full cover for this, this was one of the best guitar side by sides I’ve ever heard to a game song especially one as epic as this!
I love how his fingers and body started moving of their own accord upon hearing how epic the song is and decided to add his own flavour of epicness🔥🔥😎(subbed 😉)
Yesss dude! I’ve been waiting for this
You're so talented man
Random video find one night.
Fuck Yeah dude.
You just earned a sub.
This is how u do a reaction!!! this is nuts bro!!!
Wow you are awesome. I got chills
Daaaaamn, Toxic has some serious creative chops!
The absolute skill and mastery that went into this song is on levels that only few can begin to comprehend. It's... Motivational.
holy shit this blended so well with the song
Came for bury the light, stayed for you, I want this overlap please
Bruh your solos over top of the actual tracks are so good and somehow fit in so well
Hoooooooly shiiiiit, holy shit, holy shit. The fucking flavor you gave this song with your guitar solo was EPPPPIIIIICCCCC, dude. That was fucking WILD. Good shit.
you made it sound so much cooler with the extra guitar sounds
10:24 lawredon knows what's up with the devil trigger reference
it was so perfect at 8:07. btw good cover
This is amazing.
I would love a full cover of this at one point by you. You are one of my inspirations to one day learn how to play
Much love ❤❤❤
Beautiful melody cover!
Your cover should be on spotify man!
I need a remix of this now 😭❤️
I love this clip so much dude I keep coming back to it
You gotta release a version of this song with your added playing. I would listen to that every day
Never seen someone play with a song, be so in sync and make it sound even better!
Damn dude it's incredible how you could play while just listening the song at the same time! You just earned your sub and like!
SO good. another banger, man. keep up the killer work
This man not just react, but he also playing it. Love that
at 10:15 is when Vergil showing off his new DT mode :Sin Devil Trigger
I NEED THIS COVER NOW
9:40 onwards was absolutely fire. it's like a solid 2 minutes of eargasm
I’ve been hoping you would come across this song! Btw I’m always loving the positive vibes from you 🤙
the fact that you jam with this and add to it completely is wild, it sounds awesome
I don't how you managed but you made this song even more epic than it was with your solo, you absolutely killed it, keep going man, you're an absolute DEMON with the guitar!
I really enjoyed that. Keep it up bro
Dayummmm, fit so well your performance!
GREEEAAAATT!!!! Fantastic!!!! :D Motivation!!!
I've probably told you this but man you are fucking AWESOME! 😎
