Dragonthunder - Left 4 Dead 2's Special Infected Themes (Metal Remake)

[@slavicjericho4543]

this is what the members of Midnight Riders hear if they're the survivors

[@gojirashea2020]

The warning themes sound like someone's tuning their guitar.

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Gotta have one clean and one distorted to be able to tell if they are far or near you, hahahah

[@dantebegay7256]

Charger sounds as if it was written by Rob zombie AND Mick Gordon. Love it!

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

My god, now that's something I feel really proud of reading, I appreciate a lot for your feedback! The idea was brought by someone who also loves those mods and follows it. Thanks for commenting here! :D

[@danielscomentclub2636]

Same as smoker

[@Box-Chan]

2 whole years later, I cannot describe how amazing and badass every single one of these is, and using them in game is amazing Tremendous work!

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

2 years later, I come back with a new mod, check out my latest videos, the escape theme is up and running :D Thanks for your words, I appreciate it a lot!

[@Palladium1010]

That's amazing! They are all great soundtracks, but mortification theme is just something, my guy.

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Thanks a lot, that one is surely a powerful one, probably the most fitting among all those themes I've made

[@Karma-Rv]

This is not a peak of your talent and yet, this is still your masterpiece. Love it.

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Your words are like gold, thanks a ton for your comment!!!

[@HeraldOfMediocrity]

fucking damn is this entire lineup of metal remakes absolutely amazing

[@flashstormer1353]

this is very good, i might suggest you to make a metal cover of Skin On Our Teeth since there isnt any metal covers for that song that i can currently find. Very good SP themes though, keep up the good work.

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

I'm definitely on my way for it, but I'm being incredibly slow due to other works and some other more personal struggles...but no need to worry, the escape theme is the current one I'm in..and then I'll work on the Death Themes!

[@Mr_Lunatic_Mr]

​@@AcidDragonGraugh Are you still working on those?

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

@@Mr_Lunatic_Mr Yes, I recently re-aquired some plugins necessary for the orchestral elements, and I'm already trying to make the cover with multiple attempts to make it sound awesome ;) (or at least try to lol)

[@Res94_72]

Dude the phsycowitch is just amazing

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Very psychotic! Thanks man! You gotta be careful, or else she may rip your skin while the song rip your ears, then R.I.P. in the game

[@mazou5808]

I did the tutorial you made and added it to my game and I love that it even works in versus mode so I feel like it makes things more intense

[@doomguy1949]

Honestly as soon as I've listened to these I had to download them in game, absolute headbangers.

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

I appreciate it, I hope you're enjoying those themes so far and hopefully the tutorial on how to install them isn't too confusing too

[@jeanfoxgamer]

god, the Charger attack one is my favorite, it's just so GOOD but the Witch attack just sent shivers down my spine, you did such an amazing job doing this, keep 'em coming!

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Thank you man, I'll keep them coming for sure once I recover, which I hope its going to be in some weeks. Please stay tuned!

[@TheGamer6969Xx]

Holy shit that jockey theme.. it’s so awesome.

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

I felt that "galloping" drums from Power Metal would fit the jockey, even more because it rides you, hahahah, thanks a ton for your comment though

[@lonelyceetee21]

holy fuck that witch theme is awesome

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Thanks dude :DD I did want to create something to fit the entire pack, but at the same time...a theme that wouldn't go too far away from the original feeling of a creepy moment you gotta go through (even more if the Witch is IN A DOOR AND THE DOOR IS THE ONLY WAY TO PROCEED IN THE CAMPAIGN RIGHT [I also know if you use a Shotgun and approach enough from the witch and fire at her head, it's an insta-kill no matter with difficulty you are playing in {but hey, it's the failure ratio, how many times did it work and how many times did it fail? It's your life in the line afterall hahah - okay I'm out of brackets here -}])

[@RoyDJ1069]

holy shit dude, this is gotta be the best metal representation for the special infected, I love the chaotic nature of the hunter and jockey themes playing while you're dying lol. its P e r f e c t. the smoker and charger pinned themes are okay, nothing special. The Boomer puke and Spitter Acid themes is just too good. I love your work bro, also I hope you get well! :D

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Thanks dude, it is so good to hear this after working with those mods for so long...those are very important rewards for me...also, thanks a ton for commenting, and enjoy the mod, it's out!

[@theghosts32]

Man I downloaded all of your Metal themes it's good man keep it up

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Thanks for all the support man! I am working my best on them! The one I'm working now is the escape themes, and then I'll proceed to the death themes!

[@brookestarr7571]

As a fan of L4D this is dope as fuck! You match each of their unique warning and attack singles perfectly!

[@ELIKTRIK11]

hi... um im working on a zombie game that has a dynamic music system and would you like to make the ost?

[@derdeutschlp8593]

1:31 is awesome! I need a full song based on this

[@dashhurry4363]

Those were totally insane!!! You’ve must’ve worked very hard making those I bet? I love it!!! Edit: the tongue Drag sounds so scary, but awesome at the same time

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Had tons of work, yes! But I'm having some help! This one was very difficult due to looping, so I had to send it to the workshop in a different way :/ But I'm glad people are enjoying!!

[@MattTapes]

I mostly love the smoker's and boomer's far away themes, it sounds so clean 🎶😎

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Thanksssssss!! I do like the Boomer and the Spitter too, I was able to give the atmosphere of the original soundtrack together with the remake!

[@commander_eaa2862]

Some of the special infected callouts for some reason make me think they would fit a Greece based champaign. Regardless I love also how you keep the horror and gameplay intent of the music in mind! But this time it feels like the zombies WANT to kill you and were MADE to

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Oh yeah! I tried to keep the horror stuff in there, since the game kinda mix horror, humor and action...there were a bit of a challenge to make it sounds metal without dragging off too much from the original intent, since that's more a Remake than a Remix...but thanks for the feedback! :DD ...they want you and they'll run even on the walls to get you, run

[@mandiec3149]

man i really want an extended version of mortification on its own because holy shit the song is so good

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Noted, I may extend it in the future after I finish doing the relevant themes, becaude Mortification doesn't use any melody of the original song...so I am able to extend it without copyright issues!

its sad that if u max volume game to hear these songs, u will explode ur ears because of the guns :(

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

I always thought about the same, actually the Main Menu music has the same issue, I think I even tried increasing the volume and it didn't work, or it clipped too much. For some reason, my songs for main menu became kinda silent comparing to the original and I have no idea why...whenever I start working for the other Main Menu themes, I'll try fixing it again Thanks for your commentary by the way :D

Some of the bacterias are too grating on the ears but the rest are awesome

You should make some of the pinned on their own cause installing is a bit confusing

I know, and this will be the only Addon that will require this kind of installation due to some metadata not being saved when sending items in workshop through ".vpk" format...those are essential to make the Special Infected themes to work...so I had no choice but to do it this way :( I simplified the How To Install video as much as I could so people could follow D:

hey man this is great but why it doesn't containe the spit sound and boom one? am I doing it wrong? great music

[@AcidDragonGraugh]

Hey dude, I apologise for the enormous Delay All of the sounds should be included, take a look and see if you have no mods conflicting (mostly soundtrack mods, or specific mods for the Spitter or Boomer), I've heard people say about thinks not working, and in the end it was some other mod conflicting...I suppose that could fix the problem! If not, someone made a version of my mod that doesn't require that whole manual installation, although I think the song is still going to cut since a very important metadata doesn't get carried over with a .VPK file (this format is like a .rar, but for Valve), and I need to make a .VPK to publish in the workshop :/ So, manual installation is the only way for now, sadly :/
