John dies on his birthday, only wanting to find his father. When he does find him, it’s but a corpse. In an attempt to avenge him, he fights Jack Noir and dies again. When his friend Rose attempts to avenge John, she withers away. A sudden shift in tone, from a funny story to a tragic dance of thorns.
This is why I love Rose. To me, even when she can clearly see something is hopeless, she will fight until it kills her, and that's what makes her such a compelling, inspiring character. She had to know what was going to happen by conversing with the Noble Circle of the Horrorterrors, yet she did it anyways. She's a fighter. tl;dr, I LOVE LALONDES!
@@lubomirpacheliev363 Homestuck! It's worth reading! You might not like the first act, but it gets better!!! It's a really good series with absolutely stunning music, and it's one of the big inspirations behind undertale/deltarune, alongside earthbound.
according to ancient Greek notions, being forgotten, oblivion was the most fearsome thing that can happen to a hero. and through a heroic death, you'd achieve immortality. bards would tell the tales of your heroic death. homestuck is like a literature student's heaven with all these references just wow.
If you like refrences to classic literature i recommend the detective pony fanfic by sonnettstuck. Its the full version of the book jane got as a birthday gift from dirk and its filled with greek mythology. The best fanfic i ever read by far.
im really upset because i used this music for a flash i had to make for a school project and every time i hear this fucking song i think of hamlet and claudius fighting to the death
+Fuwanka Ever though of uploading that on your channel? I just found it humorous that I am going through the same play, might as well look for some inspiration on fighting scenes and such!
holy shit, I must hear more, cause that sounds amazing. If you havn't animated that yourself, I now want to. I'm no pro, but someone needs to make this a reality.
When everything else is lost, and death is certain, then fight to your death as hard as you can. That's what the song means to me, and I'd bet it's what Rose was thinking too. She really understands what kind of situation the kids are in, and she's still willing to go on, and that's why she's awesome.
The scratch as a concept is so interesting. I know we as a fanbase has distanced ourselves from hussie, but seriously what was he on when creating the game’s mechanics. Genuinely sburb is one of my favorite scifi concepts. All the mechanics, consorts and denizens.
at the price of oblivion is about $1.15 now i calculated this by taking the price (4.13) for homestuck vol. 7 & 8 with cherubim, divided it by the number of songs (72), then multiplied it by the songs originally from at the price of oblivion (20), then rounded it to the nearest tenth
Does anyone understand why none of the homestuck songs, no matter how many views they have, ever have ads preceding them? This has mystified me for some time, though obviously I'm not complaining.
I believe it's because they're submitted by non-monetized channels, and in at least some cases, with permission of the composer, but then since Homestuck and stuff associated with it is an internet-based IP, these channels posting that stuff without permission are a lot less likely to be sued over it.
I looked for this song for so long and couldn't find it. I gave up. A day or two later I'm absently looking through the Homestuck soundtrack and I find it. My joy is immeasurable.
I used to listen to this on repeat, then when I listened to Rex Duodecim Angelus, I was like, "Wait, this really reminds me of THIS piece" and then i came back here and like it's not exactly the same but a small part of it sounds similar like a leitmotif fdjhfds
Until 0:30 I thought of Chorale for Jaspers because they use this song over and over, and depending on what instrument they use makes me think different shit I thought Chorale for Jaspers was sad This is bad ass IM NOT GOING BACK TO THE HOMESTUCK FANDOM LET ME LEAVE GOD DAMMIT
The motif starting at 1:01 intrigues me. It comes from Black Rose, but this version of it, adapted to 4/4 time, sounds exactly like something I've heard accompanying the "English" leitmotif. I'd say they were the same leitmotif, but what's the contextual connection it bridges between Eternity Served Cold and Lilith in Starlight?
woodfur00 I don't think that they're the same motifs; they don't serve any connection to each other. I think that the Lilith in Starlight leitmotif is a section of the Dark Rose in a major key mixed with some of Darling Kanaya, but the motif in English just sounds a bit like the aforementioned- it isn't the same though
This would've definitely fit a good Strife scene with Rose and John fighting Jack, sure the end result would've been the same, but they could've at least put up more of a fight
+Odd Khan Yeah, the one after Seer: Descend. It looks like John and Rose are about to have a dramatic confrontation with Jack... and then he frickin' stabs John and the music stops
@warob2000 Welp, it works. Particularly for people who feel that their lives are going nowhere and there's nothing they can do about it... of course that's wrong but sometimes they won't listen and refuse to accept that they can change things if they want to. So then I basically say your quote, and say that they got nothing to lose as WELL as nothing to gain, so would they rather have an awful experience or just void of no experience? And they get up and fight.
@DoomsdayOdd I dunno, man, that sounds like a pretty legit fan theory to me. He's probably the only one who's guessed the true ending to Homestuck. Hussie will be crushed.

How much is fucking oblivion?
$14.99
AT THE PRICE OF OBLIVION 2X COMBO!!!
So the answer is 14.99 on Steam for Oblivion and some of the comment are making me sad
Rose's silhouette forms the numbers 4 1 3 with herself as the 1 and the ribbon as the 4 and 3.
...holy shit.
I get the feeling it wasn't particularly intentional, as that's a bit of a stretched observation, but it's pretty cool
I dunno man, those shapes are exactly how I write my 4 and my 3.
I think the artist would've at least represented them more symbolically... 0_0

Dave silouethe makes a "4" symbol and Rose's makes "1" and her scarf makes a "3"

i dont see the 4

That little bit of Aggrieve near the end makes this even more awesome.
So, this is what would sound if there would be a real fight between the Heir and Jack...
Awesome.
Try not to die next time, John.
the good homestuck music is like a pokemon shiny, you dont find it, the music find you
Revenge is a dish best served cold.
It's almost like eternity.

this is a remix of chorale for Jasper, pony chorale is also remix of chorale for Jasper
"at the pony of Jasper"

if anyones wondering RDA is at 0:56
It's the drums you're hearing. Great drumline tbh.
Never mess with the husband of someone who's gone grimdark.
Just played this on loop to beat Messmer in Elden Ring. Took me 80 tries across about 2 days! Really hard, but really satisfying boss.
For like 3 years I have been reading the title of this song as At the Prince of Oblivion
That awkward moment
Wet-Hands from Minecraft in the minor key sounds hauntingly similar to this
I literally just realized that it says Price and not Prince.
zoey something something elder scrolls
in THIIIS ecocnomy.... and with the prince of oblivlion ready to SKYKROCKET
All the Alpha and Betas disliked, and vriska squeeled since there are 8 dislikes.
whole time thought it was saying prince. wowzers made me take a double look
Me too rn
At the beginning with the bass I can feel the vibrations in my head when I wear headphones and listen to this song. Fuckin awesome
I love how this song is so intense and yet so subdued at the same time
This song still goes hard
It sure fucking does.
John getting killed right before fucking jack's shit up got me like
After listening to Hardchorale, I keep expecting there to be meows xP

I specifically turned up my volume just for the low bumps in the beginning. AMAZING
Holy shit, I KNEW I heard that melody before, but I never could remember where.
Thanks.

Literally the first Homestuck song I listened to
that's a good start.

A Sacrifice
20 bucks on steam
It's not worth the 20 dollars, just wait until the Steam Summer Sale if you really want it
Bout tree fiddy
YellowFellow Everything probably becomes somewhere near $0.00 when perished.
The Price of Oblivion is £12.99 on steam, 14.99 if you want all the dlc.
Ah ?
I was looking for the cow spinning meme song but found this and it’s kinda boppin
