#DevilMayCry5 #DevilTrigger #MusicReaction #SongReview #DMC5 #VideoGameMusic #VGM #Violin #ElectricViolin
Fun little fact: The lyrics "Like a sliver bullet piercing through. I throw myself into you" Is played in Vergil's theme but not a lyrics but as a melody. You can actually say those lyrics and it will match up to a certain point in bury the light
Which part?
@@ragnarlothbrok4748 near the end and then the last part as well.
Isn't that supposed to be "Embrace the darkness that's within me" because it's more inline with Vergil's "Bury the light deep within" melody/instrumental?
@@rosenoire1183 yes. It also works for that one as well.
It's not just that. The entire chorus has the same melody as the ending chorus of Bury the Light.
Another amazing DMC 5 song! Make sure to check out DMC3's "Devils never cry" and DMC4 "Shall never surrender"
this!! please!! :))
Subhman is still bad
@k0modomp3ror39 eh it's grown on me but...BUT it's not Dante
Glory to me, the 300th like
@@Omega-Dan no its not
This song is the perfect venting song! It's not healthy to keep negative emotions bottled up, and sometimes when the pressure gets to be too much, you've just "gotta let it out! Gotta let it out! GOTTA LET IT OUT! GOTTA LET IT OUT!!!!"
Hell yeah!
Oh 500% Whenever I feel like I need to scream and wanna cry from being overstimulated or frustrated just need to pop on this song and jam it out.
My brother, you just described the totality of the neyal genre XD
Thats it! I listen this when ı am depressed to get back to my normal.
I need to get this song (and other characters songs like Dante or Vergil) into my phone, great to listen at work! Up mine work force +100%
Fun fact: the producer sang the intro to the song and his wife does the rest of the vocals
I never knew that, that's actually really interesting
“Where the hell is Dante” Def make the next DMC5 song you react to Subhuman, please
You bet.
Dam right next is DANTE
@@StringPlayerGamerOfficial was about to suggest subhuman lol.
DEVIL TRIGGER LES FING GOOOOOOO!! Never played the game but I LOVE this song!!! So I'm a *little* biased hahaha. Really loved your analysis on this song! It's so fascinating how just using something like a siren can increase the impact. I had never thought of mixes as being "wet" or "dry" but it makes sense! Will keep that in mind for the future!
i have a suggestion: play the game, it's awesome trust me
Play the game! its on sale rn
ALL THESE THOUGHTS RUNNIN THROUGH MY HEAD
I can’t be the only one who’s thought he was wearing Dante’s coat
i absolutely love sitting here and it's as if i'm jamming with you, it's great can't wait for you to listen to the rest of the character's themes! particularly excited for you to listen to V's theme.
Glad you enjoy it!
@@StringPlayerGamerOfficial thanks for giving my theme such praise Next up on your list should be lady's dmc5 theme reaction
I really love the way that the ending fade out is super dragged out because it makes the song itself seem like it's so powerful that it takes ages to dissipate
I feel that Nero is the balance between Dante and Vergil. Dante is chaotic and his personality and fighting style includes random movements and unpredictability. The way you can switch styles on the fly when you play his character seems to support this. While he is carefree in his life and may appear to not take anything seriously he does. He just doesn't let it keep him from enjoying the life his mom sacrificed herself for. Vergil on the other hand is precise and methodical in his approach to life and fighting. When you play him his character is very orderly and seemingly by the book in how he does thing. There is a very strict structure to the styles he uses. He is also very disciplined with himself and expects it of others. Now Nero is calm and cool and approaches things in a serious manner, but he doesn't like being so stiff. He knows there is a time and a place for things but he also knows he need to enjoy his life. With his fighting style he is a bit chaotic like Dante as it throws his opponents off. But he treats each fight as a serious matter just like Vergil.
another detail in this song is at the part 8:27, when it is very similar to bury the light but with almos opposite meaning
Nobody talks about the violin solo which by the way soul taking Edit: please make this into a full song if you can
Its crazy how nero got this masterpiece, Vergil got Bury the Light, they both got themes that suit them very well and then dante got sub human, a good song but absolute not dante's
There is something that made me come around to Dante's theme in this game. I'm not sure if it is just a regional thing, but where I live there is a stereotype of the Metalhead Uncle, and this game's version of Dante fits that to a T. The stereotype is an older man with longish white hair, Who wears a leather jacket, has a beard, who rides a motorcycle, always cracking jokes and having a good time, and always has metal music playing nearby. Dante in this game has all of these characteristics and is literally Nero's uncle. It is probably just a coincidence, because I doubt that Japanese game devs are in the know about stereotypes from a small hick town in Canada, but it fits so perfectly that I find it makes the song fit him, even though it wouldn't normally be my first choice of a character theme.
Same, dante's theme grew on me but I still don't feel it represents Dante as a whole.
At least Dante's got Devils Never Cry if one doesn't care much for subhuman.
People? If I may interject with this scenario. Imagine if Shawn "Shootie H.G." McPherson and Jason "Shy Boy" Arnold did Dante's theme for DMC5?
i would say DMC3's "Devils Never Cry" represents him pretty well still after all these years. I do like DMC5's Dante's theme, but yeah, it doesn't hit like Vergil's and Nero's does for me.@@marvinamor1330
Dmc 3 devils never cry has to be your next dmc song if possible. It's soooo good. Vergils bury the light as you've heard is peak music.
Would love to see a video like this, but about how all of the music in DMC5 is tied to your score; the more "stylish" your score the more "layers" of the song that play. It might be cool to see someone who knows what their talking about analyze how they do it and how effective or good each "level" of the song is.
Ah, my boy's theme song! Out of everyone in the franchise, Nero is my favourite to play as and his music always goes so damn hard. Shall Never Surrender from DMC 4 goes really hard too. This is just such a good song for Nero and the lyrics are such a perfect embodiment of who Nero is as a person. DMC 5 is absolutely peak DMC for me and I put way too many hours into that game 😅
You should definitely check out "Silver Bullet" It's the final boss theme that sort of represents Nero evolving as a character.
i'll never get tired of devil trigger, even after all this time it still slaps so hard
There's like, an illegal amount of hype in this song.
that was a great video of a awesome song and those strings u did at the end sounded amazing! Keep it up!
Thanks so much!
If you remember Bury the light theres the namedrop from the song "Bury the Light Deep Within, cast asid all theres no going home, were bringing chaos in the wake, drifting in the ocean all alone" and that part is supposed to be a mirror to the "Embrace the darkness thats within me, no hiding in the shadows anymore, when this wickedness consumes me, nothing can save you and theres no way out."
I haven't had a proper listen through this soundtrack yet, but I LOVE how you go through these and talk about them. I look forward to many more of your videos!
Probably the thing I love most about this song is the way it contrasts with Nero's battle theme in 4, The time Has Come/Shall Never Surrender. Both the melody and the lyrics of Devil Trigger reflect his character development over these two games.
I've always admired Devil Trigger and hearing such a great analysis of it really was awesome! Hope you enjoy playing more DMC 5!
my favorite music reaction channel love the electric violin and how i find new songs each video
Loved the video @String Player Gamer! Can't wait for the next video man! First video of yours that I'm watching and absolutely loving the content man! I heard about Devil May Cry 5 mainly from the "Revengence Status" Memes back in 2020/2021 and while I was recovering from an upset stomach I started looking into both Metal Gear Rising: Revengence and Devil May Cry 5 and just Absolutely Fell in love with the Music, even Vergil's "Bury the Light", Armstrong's "It has to be this way" and Jetstream Sam's "Bloodshed" gave me plenty of joy in some way and just flat out motivated me. Max0r's videos are a Pretty Wild Ride, definitely worth a watch if you haven't seen them already.
Been waiting for this! Fire upload as always!!
Appreciate it!!
Another Fantastic breakdown of a Modern Classic! So happy to have found the channel and I can't wait to see the next upload! 🙊
15:44 This Chad always jumpscares me with these amazingviolin solos
I love your reactions and solos at the end. Hopefully one day we all can hear the full violin cover.
Man, that violin really added to it, and i like how you kept the theme of "The Siren" on that final long pull of the bow XD
I’ve only heard a couple DMC songs so far, but Devil Trigger is absolutely my favorite ❤️🔥
“Where the frick is dante” ah, a man after my own heart
damn it man, enough reacting to these banger DMC5 songs, we want to see you cover them with those masterful strings of yours!!
Then I spend 2-3 weeks making one cover, pour my heart and soul into it, only for KZhead's algorithm to not to recommend it, just like most of my covers from 2023? Nah.
@@StringPlayerGamerOfficial Unfortunate :C
@@johnduquette7023I have 10 accounts and I will use them all
@@StringPlayerGamerOfficialwhat would it take for just devil trigger? I absolutely love this song and would adore a full cover from you!
Damn, that ending though... Fit so well! Got goosebumps! :D
Love your content, can't wait to see more
Glad i got to revisit this song today. Great stuff!
Id love to see your reaction to music from mech anime like Armored Trooper Votoms, Metal Armor Dragonar, Heavy Metal L-Gaim, Martian Successor Nadesico, and Mospeada. Imo they have such a unique sound that varies so much while still sounding so similar (As you can tell from my username I'm somewhat biased)
God does this entire franchise have bangers not only are these 2 are amazing Crimson Cloud and Subhuman are the 2 other battle themes which are amazing I get people don't like subhuman and normally do devils never cry instead but its good to cover as many as possible to see the differences between one song and the other funny enough devil trigger and bury the light are very similar as Casey Edwards composed both (they are also similar for another reason, but if your playing the game you'll find out why in later missions)
Oh man I've hope you get an awesome job as produscer of videogame or film. Your feelings are for real!!!
Fire inside - Casey Edwards & Victor Borba. In need your review 🤩
Never played any dmc games, but I REALLY like the music! Thank you for reacting to it :D
Please react to the Metal Gear Rising ost. I think you would love it since all of the tracks are legendary especially ones like Red Sun and Collective Consciousness.
that violin is lovely 😤, beautiful work
The YT algorithm has come in clutch yet again and introduced me to another dope channel
Wow. The last part is EPIC!!
That was an awesome piece you did with that instrument. Covers like that can be interesting to hear, where you can either add parts to music, remove parts, or change the instrument to modify the emotions evoked. I dont know everything that goes into music, but now that there's science, social, and emotional understanding that goes into it, and the sharing of information worldwide, music has developed a lot. I feel like if you were to go back in time and play BFG Division (Mick Gordon) to a boxing match some time in the 1800's, it would turn into a fight to the death lol.
Everybody talking about how this shares the chord progression with Bury the Light + the mention here made me learn what "chord progression" means. I've gained so much music knowledge from watching reactions like this over the last couple years, gives me a better appreciation for the craft.
DMC songs are always very energetic. You might wanna check out Answers (Final Fantasy XIV) by Nobuo Uematsu.
7:20 - 100%. it's astounding how impactful mastering may be.
I nearly spilled my drink when you suddenly pulled out that e-violin, awesome :D
the part at the end, were he plays an Instromet him self over it sond's realy cool to
Impressive analysis! If you're interested in doing more analysis of this music genre you should definitively check out some of the Metal Gear Rising OST such as " The Only Thing I Know For Real " or " A Stranger I Remain ". I've appreciated a lot the video!
They really went all out for this game is just about every way. I'll go ahead and be "that guy" and suggest that you check out something from the Silent Hill soundtracks. Esperandote is super underrated, Promise (Reprise) and Theme of Laura are the standard recommendations, and Rain of Brass Petals (either the original or the Three Voices Edit) and Wounded Warsong are a few of my personal recommendations, but really anything from any of the soundtracks would be great.
Great video! I hope you'll react to Crimson Cloud as well imo it's even more energetic than Devil Trigger (which I also love very much)
Bruh, now I need to see a full violin cover of Devil Trigger after hearing that snippet at the end, WHY DID THAT GO HARDER THEN TUNGSTEN!?
DMC's music will be ON forever and EVER!
The song Devil Trigger Revolves around Nero finding his true power and releasing it, along with his rage completely bursting it out in a surge of unimaginable power Nero is releasing something inside his heart that he doesn't know it exists and pulling it out from within him to be able to stand up and fight for what he thinks is right Basically saying "I'm going all out and I'm not stopping this time"
Biiig Yuki Kajiura energy with the electric violin at the end
I swear, I'm gonna find a way to mix in that improv with the electric violin at the end. I will make that a mod that seems wholly innocuous until sick violin intro!
That electric violin at the end earned a sub
The fact that the theme gets louder as you get and maintain higher style combo rating only helps to ramp you up
The purpose of sorrow, is that we appreciate happiness. Well said.
Ultrakill just got new OSTs Layer 7 is out
This song is sooo good. I'm going to play this game again!
Voltaic black night is another track you should check out. it's a banging track With lots of rock and metal influences
You should listen to the Metal:Hellsinger Soundtrack
He absolutely knows when he's pausing. Based.
Devil May Cry 5 is best game of the year even the music is amazing
If you ever get the chance listen to Dante and V's theme. Since you are playing the game when you listen you realize each theme represents their characters in the melody's with devil trigger capturing Nero's energy and Bury The Light capturing Vergil's Motivation. Highly recommend V's Crimson Cloud and Dante's Subhuman themes
when you said 'the singer gets all the credit but the groovers don't get any, I thought of a set of songs you would love that fills the criteria. Its heavy as hell, and its from sonic of all things. its the sonic frontiers titan boss themes.
Nice, I started playing Frontiers but have not quite returned yet.
Ah ok, you'll love the rest of it. I don't know what else to say other than the amount of energy and adrenaline it gives you, I hope to see your reaction! 😊
I just started playing Devil May Cry 5 too.
Personal favorite improv btw
Dante is next OPP
you might love Devil May Cry Shall Never Surrender I have it on my car tunes lol
Yeaah, slay that violin!
The bill trigger
I cant remember the part where it's at but there is a section of bury the light that is either exactly or almost exactly the rythm of one of the parts of devil trigger. This link I always find super cool because of link between virgil and nero(trying to stay spoiler proof in case you play the full game, so I wont say what that link is)
I think is "bury the light deep within" and "embrace the darkness that's within me"
Man, you really need to take a listen to the Library of Ruina soundtrack, I think you'll really love how the music is composed! Listen to the songs like Gone Angels and the floor realization themes. You might really enjoy how the game perfectly mixes orchestral with EDM. Amazing video btw, was great seeing you enjoy the little details of Devil Trigger!
Yes, also Binah, Roland, and the other floor themes
Kether I mean, not Roland
*this guy after a note gets played:* :O WTF
I don't blame him. All of the songs on DMC 5 has this effect on people.
I'm not sure if anyone has recommended Path of Exile music yet, especially two of my favourites the Legion, and the Redeemer theme songs. Now that I think of it there was a third as well the Brine King theme song is also a sleeper. Another that came to mind while just listening to some of them was Fall of Oriath. I encourage looking through them, some of them get stuck in your head on a loop for sure.
8:15 is where he vibes to the memed part of devil trigger if anyone wants to know
Great video! You should listen to the most important theme from DMC3 "Devils never cry" im sure you`ll abosolutely love it
15:44 Electric violin. That's new
1920 isn't new. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_violin
I don't know what it is but DMC music just slaps every time I hear it 😂
My Friend! You should react to fear and loathing in las vegas japanese band, they speak english too
Listen to Korean Guilty Gear ost. More specifically, Ky theme.
I freaking love that you reacted to Bury the Light first, then went for Devil Trigger. If you know the hole story of the game, you'll understand what I am talking about. If anyone else recognizes what I am talking about, no spoilers pls!
Mate, you HAVE to listen to the Killer Instinct soundtrack (newer Microsoft one, 2013)it has the lyricist from Devil Trigger on one of the tracks! Also great music from Mick Gordon on the first 2 seasons 👌
when i first listened to it, i actually didnt like it cuz there was a lot going on. but it grew on me the more i listened to it because its such a catchy song! Crimson cloud was my favourite but this takes the cake
Listen to silver bullet it's nero's second theme song when he fights vergil at the end of the game
You may be interested. To the edge and footfall from Final Fantasy XIV
well fire inside's here, is that gonna be the next dmc song?
you should listen to the new ultrakill music for layer 7!
Devil Trigger, the unexpected break-out song from the game. It's a good one.
Lets goo!!
BURY THE LIGHT FULL VIOLIN COVER WHENN 😢😢😢
Now I need to hear him listen to Ken ashcorps song 'absolute territory'
05:09 This is the most frustrating pause ever
I would love a electric violin cover of this song. holy shit
