SONG OF DESPAIR IS ON SPOTIFY! Use the multilink below for links to that and more platforms.


I'm also partnered with Materia Collective, this partnership will help protect the music on my channel and we have plans to announce more soon. This is the start of some exciting projects!

[Anchor-Supreme]

It’s basically criminal that Kale’s quest was cut from the game. There’s so much emotion and despair in it, probably one of the best written quests From Software had made, in my opinion.

[Haru-spicy]

They both say 'May chaos take the world' but where Shabriri is full of passion and mad glee, Kale holds nothing but utter despair and spite.

[mispap]

You absolutely killed it with this song, I was blown away on first listen when creating this scene. Masterful music makes my job so much easier bc I can just envision the scenes in my head when I hear such moving tracks.

[euronico]

THE CALLBACK TO THIS FROM MIDRA'S BOSSFIGHT IS FUCKING CRAZY

[IncoisaRadio]

"Did you see? What they did to my ancestors?
The whole clan, buried alive.
Sick... maddened... husks of themselves.
...Have you *heard* their moans?
They're hardly *human* anymore!"

[natemartin]

Part of what makes the merchant mass grave hit so hard is how depressingly grounded it is. A religious minority, with no state or army of their own to defend them, quietly disposed of with clinical brutality. All evidence of their existence buried to hide the crimes of the perpetrators, and the survivors scattered to the winds, clinging to whatever scraps of their old culture they can remember. There aren’t mutated, horn-covered ogres being oppressed in real life, but there are many stories like this one.

It makes the howling pit of nihilistic depression at the core of the Frenzied Flame feel tantalizing, for a moment at least. Do we deserve to go on, when human beings do this to one another over and over throughout history? Is there really enough joy in life to counterbalance such horror, or is that just what the lucky and comfortable people tell themselves?

[cheesemuffin]

"If that is what they expect from us, THEN THAT IS WHAT THEY SHALL GET FROM US!"

It's criminal how the best line in the game was cut

[octopusoup]

The song gives me the impression of a silent boiling anger. Not one born of hate, but compassion for those who are unable to rectify wrongdoings with their own hands. Simultaneously beautiful and frightening.

[Gurt_The_Hurt]

The moments in elden ring where you stop and listen to the music of the characters like the bats, the flute page, and the buried merchants are amazing. Amidst the violence and constant struggle for power there's these beautiful quiet moments of calm and it makes me love the games all the more.

[joelsantos]

I felt defeated, when I found the sealed chamber deep in the catacombs, and of course, what was hidden inside. An entire people buried alive and forgotten, with some still clinging to life whilst playing this haunting melody. Great work, Alex, and thank you so much for giving us this rendition! 🙏

[LolKStew]

Vaati did an amazing job on the whole video but this song is what made it for me. I always loved the music down there (kept me sane while failing the jumping puzzle) and hearing a full arrangement is amazing. Well fucking done!

[tamim]

Kale's questline made the Lord of Chaos ending feel justified.

[picman]

Far away my people call
Distant as the sky
From the light of grace we did fall
Never again to fly

Tree of wisdom, tree of light
Golden Order shine
Left us reaching, living in plight
The truth shall now be mine

Tomb beneath the royal home
Sealed away their screams
Seeking answers, far did I roam
Chase the light in my dreams

Endless mem’ries left to rot
Sent off long ago
Search for truth, seems all was for naught
Chasing that distant glow

People spurned from hate and lies
Shunned beyond reprieve
Frenzied flame their only ally
For their deaths none did grieve

Now embrace the yellow fire
These three fingers, furled
Burn their mark, the tree’s our pyre
May chaos take the world

[真情实感]

One thing I really loved about this song is that it's stated that the lullaby the nomadics play was once a song of St.Trina (Miquella) in hopes to give them ease in their slumbers. The frenzied flame route that ends all their suffering really is the most impactful.

[Flakeytie]

"All that there is came from the One Great. Then came fractures, and births, and souls. But the Greater Will made a mistake. Torment, despair, affliction... every sin, every curse. Every one, born of the mistake. And so, what was borrowed must be returned. Melt it all away, with the yellow chaos flame. Until all is One again." - The word of The Three Fingers

[Flora-of_The-Moon]

“Please, a Frenzied flame to melt away the curse’s suffering and despair. And the order entire. May chaos take the world. May chaos take the world.”

[splinter]

This is outstanding. It really captures the despair, anger and sadness Kale must feel learning what his people went through and still do to this day.

[gaarasoren]

Literally tearing up. Music like this really touches the soul.

[arthurdsjrjbr]

It does look like the three fingers are so happy to be freed It gave the main character a genuine hug
