Get Eaten (by some pigs)
Liner Notes
#fullproduction #deathmetal #oddtimesignature #drumplaytroughvideo
Kemböle: "Roope played some drums with me last FAWM so I wanted to do something with him this year too. Out of the dark Roope sent me a drum track and told me to compose something on it. I came up with the guitars and the bass, Henri sang and wrote the lyrics, Riki Sorsan veli played a guitar solo. Only chopped a extra part to fit the long guitar solo, otherwise its all there from the original drum track. Odd time signatures and all. Thanks everyone, I'm so happy to make music with such talented folk!"
HMorg: The first time I took a listen to what Kemböle and Roope had done so far, I happened to be watching the Twitch streamer dinossindgeil's stream, where he was in the middle of a challenge run called God Run 3 SL1 (that's 7 From Software games hitless on level 1 in a row, he finished the run the next day after nearly 2 years of tries) and was in the home stretch of Dark Souls 2. As Roope was counting in the song with his sticks, dinos finished the game and yelled out jubilantly, which sounded like "click click DARK SOULS TWOOOOOOOOOO!" And that gave me an idea. Was it a good idea? Perhaps not, but it kinda worked. For anyone uninitiated, the places and characters named in the lyrics are very early game.
Drums: Roope Puumalainen Guitars and Bass: Lukas Pearsall @kembole Vocals and lyrics: Henri Harell @hmorg Guitar solo: Riki Sorsan Veli (guess who?)
Lyrics
It is my day off And I'm ready for some good gaming Load up a classic From 2014 Then fall into a pit before The character creator I've made a huge mistake I've chosen to play Dark Souls 2
Make my way to Majula Say hi to the Emerald Herald Snoop around a bit Get eaten by some pigs Fall into the hole In the middle of town Then accidentally join The covenant of champions
Dead angles On the controller Incredibly janky And doesn't look too good to boot Hitboxes Not where they're supposed to be They drain the life from me And again the screen says "you died"
I've finally reached The forest of fallen giants I'm on a roll it seems The enemies fall before me But then I get hit And hit and hit again And I realize I didn't level adaptability
You died.

Love the title, great concept! Great grooves and excellently heavy riffs. Lyrics and vocals pull off the concept perfectly. I could see this going viral in the gaming community.
This is not my kind of metal but I do appreciate the sense of humor and the brilliant craftmenship. Thanks 🙏
This is fire 🔥 love the shredding
This is absolutely slamming! Drummer is fantastic...great playing all around and that guitar solo simply slays. And I can't help but laugh at "get eaten by some pigs"...that's so great! 😀
Hard hitting! Great drumming (I would have loved it up in the mix), sick guitars, amazing solo. Obviously a work of very skilled musicians.
