Guitarist Reacts: "Alive" - Arknights OST

[@HurtboxTV]

Due to the way it was recorded the video's shadows are really dark even with post effects. Don't know why but it came out like that, so sorry about that!

[@gravityjumper2241]

Don't worry m8, anyway did you know this song and the band itself paying homage to linkin park as the wiki states : "Alive Until Sunset" is the antonym of "Dead by Sunrise," which is the name of an American rock supergroup founded by Chester Bennington, best known for being the lead vocalist of Linkin Park until his death in 2017 - the same year Arknights was announced. -Wiki

[@amaterasu697]

Fun Fact about the fictional band playing this track: "Alive Until Sunset" is an inverse of "Dead by Sunrise", referring to the late Chester Bennington's supergroup of the same name. The logo of AUS is also upside down version of the logo. Furthermore, the description of the band in game also said that "AUS is notable for keeping their lyrices completely clean", which is referring Linkin Park's early album.

Another thing is this band communicate to their kind with music this also keep their humanity

[@rimurutempest117]

wtf that's so dope, I've been a fan of Linkin park and Arknights for so long! I couldn't notice this!

[@DragonKnight90001]

Wait so this band is basically Arknights Linkin Park……….. bloody hell no wonder I’m liking this music.

[@amaterasu697]

Great to see you reacting to more Arknights tracks! I'd love to see your reaction to "Field in the Light", as that one *really* kicks up the pace and intensity with the guitar. Some other tracks I recommend would be "Evolutionary Mechanization", "Real Me", "kingmouse", "Aflame Avenue", "Cannot Wait For", and "Bridge to the Dawn". As for your question, yes! That was Christina Vee on vocals again! She is featured prominently on a good handful of Arknights songs. Cheers!

[@RokiDam]

And "Real me" too

[@vignasimp2835]

[@ryuku2]

The way I Understand it, Arknights has multiple fictional music groups, and this one, Alive Until Sunset, was the same band as the one that did Rock The Night Away, and Christina Vee is basically the official character voice for the lead singer, the name of which I can't remember off the top of my head. But my guess is that they're either the first name that gets listed off on the video pre-roll credits, Aya, or the second to last one, Frost. I know it's not Dan because I remember that the name of the drummer is Dan.

[@NareshSinghOctagon]

The problem is that the characters used for Rock The Night Away are not the same ones used in this,the former are playable Operators whilst the latter are NPCs(but the same singer was used in both). So far,there's three named music makers we know of,DDD,AUS,and Emperor.

[@VyraNightingale]

C. Vee is not the only one they have for rock/metal songs. I recommend checking out "Operation Pyrite" featuring a vocalist from Four Year Strong, Alan Day. And also "Operation Pine Soot" featuring the vocalist from Life Awaits.

[@werderlork9056]

Wow, this is a great video! As an Arknights player, it's awesome to see someone outside of the community taking note of the amazing music the game has! People usually don't take mobile games seriously, even though some of them have insane soundtracks. That said, Arknights uses a lot of musical genres, so the only other straight metal song I can immediately think of would be Can Not Wait For. I probably need to refresh my memory, haha.

[@zomfgroflmao1337]

Burn me to the Ground? Granted, it is more drum heavy and vocals focused, but certainly a heavy song. Also, Aflame Avenue is also in game from Alive until Sunset.

[@Amaryllis6731]

@@zomfgroflmao1337 If operation blade works then operation pyrite would also works . Also real me

[@firesturmgaming]

Fun Fact: Since "Alive Until Sunset" is an inverse of "Dead by Sunrise", the video references this by having a small snippet of a Linkin Park album cover pasted on the side of one of the TV screens you see in the background. Its Chester's hand holding a mic.

[@markazmaxima]

ah yes, Arknights that game that was created by a "music" company...

[@Piquliar]

Seeing you learning to emulate the riff put a smile on my face despite not knowing much about making music lol.

[@darkrealmlight92]

As an Arknights fan, this reaction is such an awesome thing to see. Sick looking guitar by the way.

[@SoulWhiteAngel]

A song I recommend from arknights as a guitarist that you are I say try 'March On' Arknights Chap 10 Shatterpoint song

[@gamefaqser]

Can't wait to see which Arknights song you'll react to next! A lot of the ones I like are made by the same artist too. I think C. Vee sings most of the rock songs but there are other vocalists for the not-rock ones

[@hereticloli2476]

You also have to check out Arknight's "All Hail Savior" they just dropped it a few days ago in their Chinese server youll probably like it

[@humorm4152]

This song needs more love tbh and your good my guy

[@demodon2198]

Great vid! Would love to see you check kingmouse, Field in the Light or Real Me all these tracks are awesome Arknights tracks.

[@senormooples2354]

Actually hype

[@dalgona4819]

It's even more amazing listening to this song knowing that it changed an entire civilization of reptilian tribesmen in Arknights XD

[@ehhmehh6049]

If you're looking for more Arknights music to listen to, try checking out Aflame Avenue, Captan, Iron Guy, Don't Make Trouble, Evolutionary Mechanization, Real Me, Chasing etc. Honestly, there's too much to check out from this game.

[@Eniteee]

*I feel so ALIVE*

[@khol1611]

How about "real me"? That's instrument are f*cking good
