video game osts
this list may/will have spoilers for the games due to song names giving stuff away; peruse at your own behest
games (click to jump there):
hollow knight
honestly all songs are genuinely amazing but:
- title theme -- it sets the mood perfectly; no joke, i had no interest in hollow knight, but when i heard this when vinny vinesauce started the stream i actually went to the switch store, saw that it was only like ~$17, and bought it immediately
- radiance
- greenpath
- city of tears
- godhome
- grimm/nightmare king
- deepnest insect-in-your-ear noise 10 hour loop asmr
silksong
silksong isn't even out yet and it has some of the best songs from anything, ever:
- bonebottom
- lace
- there are only two songs released and they are both here deservingly
devil may cry
- devils never cry
- shall never surrender
- devil trigger -- obviously
- bury the light -- when i heard this song for the first time i was like man how boring a song i can't even jam to and now i listen to this 10 min dad rock-core song daily
- crimson cloud -- no rhythm in singing, very little instrument variation, a million little things i normally don't like in songs, and yet i love this for some reason
- roar, roar, roar!! -- why is this russian edm hardbass club song a boss theme and why is it so good
- silver bullet -- okay the context for how this song starts playing makes it 10000x better but the song itself is good too
