Final Song
10/10 Alright, good energy to start. It knows how to build up tension for 23 seconds well. The guitar rendition of I believe it’s Team Star’s leitmotif goes real hard. the 1:50 potion is giving me chills holy shit. It keeps building extremely well. Overall penny’s theme was already fire, a metal remix by someone that understands how to make a song is fire. 3:14 is a nice revision of the main melody with higher notes, and I like the falling notes there.
No Ruina…? 
(don’t forget the definitely normal Susie fight remix I posted~)
7/10
takes a long time to get moving past the opening. I like the orchestral parts. Can’t really describe much, good song with a strong main melody
Don’t worry, I got your ruina covered
0/10 (joke)
the only slam jam remix acceptable in this household is Slam Of Jam from phighting
ok the opening was pretty nice. I like high music or however you put it that sound like that, mildly overworldly n whatnot.
Don’t really like the part afterwards, feels too fast for the complete lack of actual strong melody, and too annoying sounding if I can say it like that
5/10, overall saved by the parts where it isn’t breakcore
Currently havent listened to ruina music, probably later but not any time soon
Kinda wanna listen to that music while playing library of ruina
I’m gonna explodonate you
ok loving that opening
this is funky as all hell
getting that 10/10, reminds me of Citrus
Fair, Breakcore really isn’t for everybody.
(for this one, if you dont wanna listen to the full thing then listen from 6:12 to the end)
might post more later
Oh? You know about lianhau?
Iron Lotus
10/10
the opening of Iron Lotus is exactly what I fucking mean by Lamenting Boss theme. The rest of the song IS fire. Has a very consistent energy. It’s really a shame that the library is a deathtrap that you are literally GOING to die thanks to time warping shenanigans, because Nine Sons Of The Dragon should have won. I can’t really say much, Iron Lotus is a masterpiece
Children Of The City
7/10
Do Not Go Home Until You Have Finished Reading The Value Of e
THE RED MIST
7/10
Wish it didn’t take priority over literally every other song except for that’s this, but it goes pretty hard for a theme belonging to a character that can solo literally almost every reception in the game
Another thing I’m pretty hyperfixated on is music from my childhood or teenage years.
For instance:
Hideki Naganuma’s work with Jet Set Radio.
You’re gonna need a bigger ukulele
7/10
The song does some interesting things with it’s rhythms and instruments, but not really for me
also it is L O N G
Yakuza song
8/10
Christ man it’s just some mobsters why does it go this bloody hard with the guitar/synth
…oh… that’s where the phighting crossroads theme gets it’s main melody from…
anyways, a clean 6/10, keeps consistent but kinda boring
You asked for this yourself
I’m gonna put them in categories, each category has 3 songs.
Starting off with
I’m gonna give you three songs from my 3 favorite albums to keep it simple
Live at Pompeii version because it’s my favorite, though the Pulse tour and the studio version are also nice
https://youtu.be/CiXNIjGX1hY?si=IQNVAr8_gO3sdkLK
I would say Eclipse is by far my favorite song on DSOM but I refuse to listen to it if it isn’t directly connected to Brain Damage, so I picked Breath In the Air instead (great song regardless)
https://youtu.be/jcz0YxYl6Ac?si=xBDTnAeSfpD_Up-1
Then I’d love to put any other song from The Wall but I think this one is the best to represent it, the guitar solo at the end is worth waiting for.
https://youtu.be/x-xTttimcNk?si=3DK6unCA1EZ7wpfF
Be grateful I did not put Echoes on here
The synth on this one is just so fucking good
https://youtu.be/p3j2NYZ8FKs?si=Lbi0x9F_5MNHmRHT
https://youtu.be/Hr9GJUcP1-g?si=4jsSGGnKRKYjaI-p
This one is probably my most favorite 80s song of all time, the song structure is simply perfect

(It’s in German btw)
https://youtu.be/NZ6X9EzXaBQ?si=2Wzjg9ZEJ0EmO-Te
I am not forcing you to listen to a 23 minute long song but like hey, you should listen to this 23 minute long song
All I’m gonna say is that if you do listen to it
There is just a bunch going on, this song is a musical masterpiece
For context for you lot these 2 are 11/10s
sorry I have to sleep I’m not reviewing 13 fucking songs for one single post
