@@CAPSLOCKPRIME Well, its technically written about Light creating Mega Man to kill Wily and stop him from controlling everything, but its kinda the same thing. Lol
@@IzraelGravesno, tom doesn't make mega man until after proto man which he gets the inspiration to make after Joe's death, so this is really a song about starting a riot lol
This has been one of my favorite songs for years, and The Wolf Among Us is one of my favorite games. So seeing it play in TWAU2 trailer made me geek out so much. I love The Protomen and Telltale, what an awesome and unexpected combination
I like the allusion Light makes to Wily's comment in The Good Doctor: "If you replace the working parts what you get is a different machine" to "If you destroy the working parts what you get is a broken machine" Also the comments about the man who turns the wheels. Basically, this implies Light is still haunted by the conversation he and Wily had that fateful night.

"Well, a friend once told me: men, they would follow any man who would turn the wheels" "If you destroy the working parts, what you'll get is a broken machine" Man, I love this callback to The Good Doctor.
Everyone's talkin' about - Gut's 7 year long boat journey - Liquid Ocelet's GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS - Stu Pickles making pudding at 7 AM - VGHS (whoever those guys are) Man, I just wanna see how Joe's doin'...
Me too, never heard of them before i heard this song, i thought of meatloaf meats like sisters of mercy instrumentals on repeat, if i drove, id crash to this song😃👍
Joe...the hero that was left in man. Alas he died fighting to wake people up. He wasn't afraid, because he knew that there were things worse than death. I think that's what makes him such a compelling character. I can only imagine what things plus be like if mega man or protoman knew about joe
This is why I wish there was a protomen comic. I'd love to see these characters and they're stories expanded upon. Joe is definitely one of my faves. Right next to protoman.
I wish we could see some more official art of characters, personally. Like, the art included in the poster that came with the act 1 vinyl. It has a shot of Light building Protoman, the girl from the Hope Rides Alone music video, and Wily's army. Or say, more Protomen themed art from John DeLucca.
ME NEITHER! Thanks Spotify's 'Discover Weekly'. But I'll be honest; I TOTALLY montaged this shit in my head with The Wolf Among Us/Fables before this collab. :D
I'm so glad VGHS used these guys' music so I could discover it! This song and some of the other ones they have have that awesome 80s sound, and I didn't even know they weren't decades old until I looked them up! The guitar solo in this song just has so much awesome feel to it; I love it!
I've watched that video TWICE my dude, and honestly, this song playing over that clip was literally perfect and how it should've gone in the actual game had this song not been about Mega Man
I probably said something here before, but I love the beat. There's a fury, a dispair, a hope, and against all odds, maybe, just maybe, they can make it. if this is isn't the sound track you deserve, this is the soundtrack you need
Omg I’m so excited to come back to this song and see a whole bunch of new comments regarding this song in a trailer?? If you’re new to this band PLEASE listen to the rest of this album and their other works. They’re incredible.
cool song! wouldn't it be funny if it was, i don't know, maybe used as a name for a level in a game about a robot hungry for blood scouring hell to keep itself alive? yeah..
it still gives me goosebumps. whenever I hear this song, I think about how Brian and Law were dancing and Ted and DK were racing. VGHS, best web series ever.

I love how well this band lives up to the game's mythology even while changing the plot and tone entirely. In the lyrics booklet that details the rock-opera like lyrics and stage details for what the actors would be doing in the script, it says that after Joe's fall in the aptly titled "The Fall", that Light picks up his helmet and gets to work on fixing the future. The helmet, I think it implies that the helmet is to be used for Protoman - who becomes the basis for Wily's Sniper "Joe". ; )
When you just want to see people discussing this music but you have no idea who Demo D or Guts is or why everyone's so obsessed with getting off a boat
th-cam.com/video/4VnLY_iQxGU/w-d-xo.html This should clear things up if you still were wondering. Basically there’s a character named Guts in a manga called Berserk who got on a boat. Then the series went on hiatus and when it came back the pace slowed to a crawl, with basically a bunch of filler of Guts doing stuff on the boat. This period of time lasted close to a decade (our time, not in the comic). So when he finally got off the damn boat it was a pretty big deal, and the youtuber linked above made that video to commemorate the Ordeal of the Boat, using this fantastic song in it. So that’s why people are taking about all that stuff.
I got you on the Metal Gear Solid reference. There's a video named Metal Gear Solid 4 Was a Mistake in which this song was used for the climax where liquid ocelot does the thing. There are several timestamps in the comments, but it happens an hour and thirty nine minutes into the video and is fantastically executed.
First time hearing this song, gives 80s rock vibes. Instantly became one of fav songs of all time. One of the best songs I've ever heard. The passion, artistry of music and songwriting, and the message are sublime. #NewFan
I saw The Protomen at PAX prime, back when PAX was good and not just another commercial expo, and lemme tell you, they're amazing live. The day after the main show, they played in a small conference room in the convention center and did a bunch of covers, and it was even better in that small intimate space as opposed to the big theater.
I saw them once at PAX East, in Boston. A friend of mine had been trying to get me into The Protomen for years, and that was the first time I actually listened to them. They blew me away, and thankfully, I got a signed vinyl out of it. One of the proudest parts of my collection.
There once was 1080p, a beautiful creation of man. It's pixel count blew not only the charts, but the faces of the observers. Then, one stormy night, a miracle happened. 1440p! Have you ever heard such a thing? You can now watch a stationary photo to awesome music in the highest definition known to mankind!

This mess we're in, well you and I, maybe you and I, We can light up the night. They made their plans carefully. Spending hours on the details. If Joe could reach the main telescreen on top of the tower in the center of the city - Wily's tower - he could take out the central transmitter. He could stop the broadcasts going out to the satellite screens. He could stop the broadcasts going out to the machines. He could take out Albert's eyes. With Wily blinded, Light could reenter the city undetected. He could complete the task that he had obsessed over for more than twenty years. He could kill Albert Wily. A prisoner caged on the edge of the city, this was Light's chance. His chance not only at freedom, but to exact revenge. To kill his judge, his warden, and the man who'd built his prison. To destroy the man who'd taken everything from him - his life's work, his name, his love. Together: We can light up the night! There is a city that this darkness can't hide. There are the embers of a fire that's gone out, But I can still feel the heat on my skin. This mess we're in, well you and I, maybe you and I, We can light up the night. There is a city that this darkness can't hide There is a fire that will burn through the streets of the city, and we will stand in the light. We will stand in the light, you and I. You and I. We can bring back the light. With Wily's assassin out of the way, they had a small and rapidly closing window. The sniper robot would soon be missed. Their plan finally secure, Light locked the green helmet under Joe's chin and handed him the bag of explosives. "Go!" he shouted.

Lyrics:
This city's sleeping like a soldier
Trapped inside of an iron lung.
Machines can keep you breathing
But what happens when you find a new war's begun?
Flip a switch and turn it off, you won't be able to breathe.
So either way you're a casualty.
I've got this burning like my veins are filled
With nothing but gasoline.
And with a spark,
It's gonna be the biggest fire they've ever seen.
Cut me down or let me run,
Either way it's all gonna burn...
The only way that they'll ever learn
We've got to turn it off,
Flip a switch.
Light up the night!
There is a city that this darkness can't hide.
There are the embers of a fire that's gone out,
But I can still feel the heat on my skin
This mess we're in, well you and I,
Maybe you and I,
We can still make it right.
Maybe we can bring back the light.
At the heart of the city there is a
Building that looks down over all there is.
And the man in the tower controls
It all without raising a single fist.
It's like they gathered up the
City, they sold it to the devil, and now
It's gone to hell and they wonder how.
Well, a friend once told me:
Men, they would follow any man who would turn the wheels.
Now the wheels are spinning out of
Control; what would they do if we held them still?
If you destroy the working parts, what you'll get is a broken machine.
A beacon of light from a burning screen.
Light it up.
Light up the night.
There is a city that this darkness can't hide.
There are the embers of a fire that's gone out,
But I can still feel the heat on my skin.
This mess we're in, well you and I,
Maybe you and I,
We can light up the night.
There is a city that this darkness can't hide.
There are the embers of a fire that's gone out,
But I can still feel the heat on my skin.

this reminds me a whole lot of Meat Loaf, and that is absolutely awesome. The world has a distinct lack of theatrical rock. We need more like this
It was directed by the guy who did Meatloaf's albums.

Protomen are purposefully emulating various 80's rock icons, including Meatloaf, Def Leppard, etc.
We need more stadium styled rock too. Big in the mid 80's... not so much now.
It reminds you of Jim steinman's songwriting
Joe...the hero that was left in man. Alas he died fighting to wake people up. He wasn't afraid, because he knew that there were things worse than death. I think that's what makes him such a compelling character. I can only imagine what things plus be like if mega man or protoman knew about joe
I like to think when Protoman was first built, his AI was modeled after Joe's personality, and after his rebuild, he gained more of his own.
This is why I wish there was a protomen comic. I'd love to see these characters and they're stories expanded upon. Joe is definitely one of my faves. Right next to protoman.
I wish we could see some more official art of characters, personally. Like, the art included in the poster that came with the act 1 vinyl. It has a shot of Light building Protoman, the girl from the Hope Rides Alone music video, and Wily's army. Or say, more Protomen themed art from John DeLucca.
William Zender if you want an expanded Protomen universe, why ask for a comic when you could ask for act III!
Why ask for act III when it's already guaranteed and on the way?
Jesus, this came out ten years ago? I used to listen to this daily. Fuck time flies.
It came out ten years ago I checked
@@The-Big-Boss i love you 4 this
I only discovered it recently and I fucking love it.
@@The-Big-Boss you beat me to it
Holy shit! Never expected The Protomen to show up in TWAU 2.
It's how I discovered this bloody amazing band!
ME NEITHER! Thanks Spotify's 'Discover Weekly'. But I'll be honest; I TOTALLY montaged this shit in my head with The Wolf Among Us/Fables before this collab. :D
Fitting for the 1980s which TWAU is set in.
@Dakota L Black right? It be nice to have a Guardians of the Galaxy style Playlist.
I'm so glad VGHS used these guys' music so I could discover it! This song and some of the other ones they have have that awesome 80s sound, and I didn't even know they weren't decades old until I looked them up! The guitar solo in this song just has so much awesome feel to it; I love it!
That part of the show lowkey went hard as fuck
lol if no one else said anything i was going to. loved that series, especially season 1 and this scene.
“Behold... _The guns of the Patriots!”_
I UNDERSTOOD THAT REFERENCE. I SAW IT AND I CLAPPED
I KNOW WHAT THAT IS!!!
who watches 3hours video anyway ?!
@@siriusql I can't tell u how many times I've watched that video. Idk what's wrong with me
I've watched that video TWICE my dude, and honestly, this song playing over that clip was literally perfect and how it should've gone in the actual game had this song not been about Mega Man
I probably said something here before, but I love the beat. There's a fury, a dispair, a hope, and against all odds, maybe, just maybe, they can make it. if this is isn't the sound track you deserve, this is the soundtrack you need
Omg I’m so excited to come back to this song and see a whole bunch of new comments regarding this song in a trailer?? If you’re new to this band PLEASE listen to the rest of this album and their other works. They’re incredible.
This is the only song I liked
@@Barbaryotaku that sucks
cool song! wouldn't it be funny if it was, i don't know, maybe used as a name for a level in a game about a robot hungry for blood scouring hell to keep itself alive?
yeah..
Truly a 7-2 moment of all time
bzzt
Heard this in the new wolf among us, holy crap can’t wait for the new fans!!!
it still gives me goosebumps. whenever I hear this song, I think about how Brian and Law were dancing and Ted and DK were racing. VGHS, best web series ever.
5 years are passed... and VGHS is still the best web series ever

This city's sleeping like a soldier
Trapped inside of an iron lung.
Machines can keep you breathing
But what happens when you find a new war's begun?
Flip a switch and turn it off, you won't be able to breathe.
So either way you're a casualty.
I've got this burning like my veins are filled
With nothing but gasoline.
And with a spark,
It's gonna be the biggest fire they've ever seen.
Cut me down or let me run,
Either way it's all gonna burn...
The only way that they'll ever learn
We've got to turn it off,
Flip a switch.
Light up the night!
There is a city that this darkness can't hide.
There are the embers of a fire that's gone out,
But I can still feel the heat on my skin
This mess we're in, well you and I,
Maybe you and I,
We can still make it right.
Maybe we can bring back the light.
At the heart of the city there is a
Building that looks down over all there is.
And the man in the tower controls
It all without raising a single fist.
It's like they gathered up the
City, they sold it to the devil, and now
It's gone to hell and they wonder how.
Well, a friend once told me:
Men, they would follow any man who would turn the wheels.
Now the wheels are spinning out of
Control; what would they do if we held them still?
If you destroy the working parts, what you'll get is a broken machine.
A beacon of light from a burning screen.
Light it up.
Light up the night.
There is a city that this darkness can't hide.

I love how well this band lives up to the game's mythology even while changing the plot and tone entirely. In the lyrics booklet that details the rock-opera like lyrics and stage details for what the actors would be doing in the script, it says that after Joe's fall in the aptly titled "The Fall", that Light picks up his helmet and gets to work on fixing the future. The helmet, I think it implies that the helmet is to be used for Protoman - who becomes the basis for Wily's Sniper "Joe". ; )
The Wolf is Back
damn right
Now we're fucking talking baby
I see that trailer brought you guys here too ^^
When you just want to see people discussing this music but you have no idea who Demo D or Guts is or why everyone's so obsessed with getting off a boat
ABSOLUTELY THIS.
Berserk
Brandon Michaels BERSERK
th-cam.com/video/4VnLY_iQxGU/w-d-xo.html
This should clear things up if you still were wondering. Basically there’s a character named Guts in a manga called Berserk who got on a boat. Then the series went on hiatus and when it came back the pace slowed to a crawl, with basically a bunch of filler of Guts doing stuff on the boat. This period of time lasted close to a decade (our time, not in the comic). So when he finally got off the damn boat it was a pretty big deal, and the youtuber linked above made that video to commemorate the Ordeal of the Boat, using this fantastic song in it. So that’s why people are taking about all that stuff.
Lmao yeah this song just popped in the algorithm and me like .
WOLF AMONG US 2 TRAILER LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO 3:20
fire
Can't believe i can think of both Berserk and Wolf among us when I play this song now 😭😭🥰
Ok I love this song, Berserk and Metal Gear Solid. Yet somehow I've missed what seems to be an awesome combination of the lot
I got you on the Metal Gear Solid reference. There's a video named Metal Gear Solid 4 Was a Mistake in which this song was used for the climax where liquid ocelot does the thing. There are several timestamps in the comments, but it happens an hour and thirty nine minutes into the video and is fantastically executed.
"It's gone to hell and they wonder how"
I love that bit. Shit sneaks up on you
OMG I BEEN SEARCHING FOR THIS SONG FOR MONTHS! AND HERE IS IT AS A RECOMMENDATION AT RANDOM!!
I thought I was done with Telltale.
BUT THEN THEY PULLED ME BACK *IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNN*
Silence is a valid option for them, apparently
First time hearing this song, gives 80s rock vibes. Instantly became one of fav songs of all time. One of the best songs I've ever heard. The passion, artistry of music and songwriting, and the message are sublime. #NewFan
Right there with you. If this song had been around in the 80's, it would have been part of a Rocky montage without a doubt.
@@thegreathadoken6808 definitely, this song would have been a major hit
This is one of my most favorite songs ever! This last weekend I introduced my boys to the 2 albums of Protomen. They loved EVERY song.
Thanks bigby, introduced me to my favorite song. Held the podium for 10 months, longer than any other song in years
DO YOU SEE THIS ZERO! WE ARE VICTORIOUS! BEHOLD THE GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS!!!!
😂😂 That video is so good. I fell asleep to that vid every night for like 2 months lol
I knew steak Bentley turned more on to this song besides me. LIQUID!
I just fucking love boats, I could stay on one for like 8 years and i wouldnt get bored!
I saw The Protomen at PAX prime, back when PAX was good and not just another commercial expo, and lemme tell you, they're amazing live. The day after the main show, they played in a small conference room in the convention center and did a bunch of covers, and it was even better in that small intimate space as opposed to the big theater.
I saw them once at PAX East, in Boston. A friend of mine had been trying to get me into The Protomen for years, and that was the first time I actually listened to them. They blew me away, and thankfully, I got a signed vinyl out of it. One of the proudest parts of my collection.
Hakita has such fantastic taste in music. Welcome to the Ultrakill fans.
There once was 1080p, a beautiful creation of man. It's pixel count blew not only the charts, but the faces of the observers. Then, one stormy night, a miracle happened. 1440p! Have you ever heard such a thing? You can now watch a stationary photo to awesome music in the highest definition known to mankind!
And then when you least expect it... It destroys the video!
1440p is not exactly the best quality known to mankind... The cinemas use 4K, some TH-cam videos have it available too.
I'm now blind from watching in 1440p... It was worth it.
And my computer crashed after Haha.
***** 1440p is still not the best quality made yet... I just found out that final cut pro is able to render in 5k.

They made their plans carefully. Spending hours on the details. If Joe could reach the main telescreen on top of the tower in the center of the city - Wily's tower - he could take out the central transmitter. He could stop the broadcasts going out to the satellite screens. He could stop the broadcasts going out to the machines. He could take out Albert's eyes.
With Wily blinded, Light could reenter the city undetected. He could complete the task that he had obsessed over for more than twenty years. He could kill Albert Wily. A prisoner caged on the edge of the city, this was Light's chance. His chance not only at freedom, but to exact revenge. To kill his judge, his warden, and the man who'd built his prison. To destroy the man who'd taken everything from him - his life's work, his name, his love.

With Wily's assassin out of the way, they had a small and rapidly closing window. The sniper robot would soon be missed. Their plan finally secure, Light locked the green helmet under Joe's chin and handed him the bag of explosives. "Go!" he shouted.
a glorious song, now full of ULTRAKILL fans
I was wondering how long this song would take to make it to Ultrakill.
