Thank GOD you covered this, it's what I've been hoping for since you started doing Homestuck covers. You really knocked it out of the park with this one!
From an old Toby Fox twitter post, back when the animation this was featured in came out: "hey toby what do you want to call your part of the song?" "hmm, how about you guys come up with a name?"
This is too good. I felt the dopamine hit with every second of this. Literally screaming in have the melodies been in my head since when I first watch collide. Beautiful work my man.
Are you just gradually making your way through the entirety of [S] Collide? Cause I'm okay with this and would love to hear the entire thing done by you. 😁
Jesus christ, man Nothing but respect but like *oh my GOD this looks like torture* ...Also the pacing between these Homestuck songs makes me thing you also fell down the Homestuck rabbit hole long after its popularity phase and that's kinda hilarious
That’d be cool as hell, but I doubt it. Noirscape is essentially just a longer, reworked Black with better instrumentation and some extra Homestuck motifs thrown in.
I started re-reading Homestuck yesterday, and it's the third time I'm reading through it but I still can't believe how the story meshes so well and maintains being both hectic and confusing while somehow still being understandable.
Listened to the original for the first time today. Immediately after I finished listening to this I legit thought to myself "This would make for a killer metal cover......maybe even in a literal sense so maybe it's for the best that never exists" .......yet here it is. Well freaking done XD If Megalovania is Toby's One Winged Angel, then this is his Dancing Mad \m/
Whoah whoah wHAT HOW DID I MISS THIS. Everytime I see a new homestuck song from you I just go "oh shit he did THAT one?? Does he even have fingertips left???"

Never did I think someone would do a GUITAR cover for THIS

Bro has been here since before many of the current homestuck fans were even born
Thank you for your service.
Honestly. This is just one of the many songs to describe Homestuck/Toby Fox. Crazy and nonsensical yet exhilarating and amazing.
Fuck, man, there's something about hearing that "HEY, HEY" for the first time in years that sent me into a complete meltdown.
the chanting makes me feel like I'm going to explode, it's so hype and I hope toby drops a track like it in deltarune
My spiral began at 1:16 tbh
I'm still hoping for a Rex Duodecim Angelus cover one of these days, but that intro will tide me over until then :)
Eternity served cold would be nice too
he better include the honks and stock chainsaw noise
Check out FALKKONE's metal cover of Rex Duodecim Angelus. You wont be disappointed
Also, I want a Carne Vale cover.
The lording better :))
RDA is still arguably one of the best Homestuck songs ever.

I'm really excited for Toby to reuse this song in DeltaRune in some INSANE fashion just like how he reused Megalovania for Undertale

Very epic, thank you Richaadeb
Look, all I'm sayin' is Oppa Toby Style vs Unexpectancy mix needs to happen.
Idk what are you covering but its cool af
y'know that Toby Fox guy, made Undertale and Megalovania?
This was one of the last tracks he did for Homestuck.
Go read Homestuck, then fall into the rabbit hole that is Homestuck music - both the canon and the fan made tracks are amazing.
