NieR: Automata - City Ruins 【Intense Symphonic Metal Cover】

▷ SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE ► bit.ly/FalKKonE... ◄
Intense Symphonic Metal Cover of City Ruins - Rays of Light / City Ruins - Shade from NieR: Automata OST.
I was busy working on a few tracks with vocalists for the past week (well, 5 pieces to count as of today lol), including this one.
And even though this was a version with some placeholding choir, it kinda sounds nice, hence I'm throwing this in while waiting for dem actual vocals.
Oh, and more NieR is coming.

[@alexandrekuritza5685]

FalKKonE! man, congrats! Finally you've managed to get 100K congrats, man!!! Tbh you deserve way more than that, and surely, you'll get them! FalKKonE, I wish you are as happy with that as you've made us all with yours amazing Intense Symphonic Metal Covers! Like I'm the guy that in 10/28/17 asked for more NieR covers, it was my birthday :D, and you ended up making 3 new covers! ! ! Man I have to say I had a really good time with your channel! (Specially the bad time song and NieR) Don't stop! And OMEGALOL another one?! FeelsGoodMan (I dunno if you already saw this comment because it's the 3rd time I comment this, but you really deserve it :D)

[@FalKKonE]

Thanks, bud :) And, yeah, I saw it, every single time ;) I read all comments

[@alexandrekuritza5685]

AY LMAO OMEGALOL SORRY

[@FalKKonE]

it okei, don't worry, I just don't reply to the majority of 'em, since it takes way too much time unless it's "ur mom gay", of course

[@ChrisMorray]

You've made my day. I listen to your Nier covers almost daily when programming and I feared you wouldn't do more. Will you doing Weight of the world?

[@BishopHavel]

Y'know, at first I was thinking "This song is nice and peaceful, and doesn't need the *intense symphonic metal cover* treatment" I no longer have these thoughts.

[@viniciusalexandretarginonu2225]

How the actual fuck you turn a calm, soothing melody into a final battle theme?! *Are you aspiring to become as gods?*

[@sirgentleman6416]

Vinicius Alexandre Targino Nunes He's already one

[@baconlovingvampire4523]

No he is a god

[@ChrisMorray]

PRAISE THE INTENSE ONE!

[@StarshadowMelody]

This doesn't really feel final battle to me. It feels more... no now I hear it, but it still feels like a mysterious.

[@ChrisMorray]

Lost Melody It sounds like a sad final boss battle. Kinda like Asgore from Undertale. Like you're forced to fight your best friend because there's no other way. Where neither of you hold back, and it's the best fight you've ever had, but both of you know there's only sad endings.

[@warrax62570]

Me : City ruins is such a peaceful song, it can't be turn into metal. FalKKonE : Hold my beer.

2Beautiful for this world

[@pandabatman]

That would have been an awesome ending name

[@PiranhaGamer3]

The "beautiful" boss gets jealous of 2B's beauty, goes berserk and destroys both 2B and 9S in one shot, then goes on a ramage and destroys Pascal's village and the Ressistance camp, leaving no one to match her beauty

Can't make a symphonic metal cover of a quiet, peaceful song you say? It'd be a shame if someone were to, *become as gods*

[@Randhrick]

Whoa.... whoa! Are you kidding me? this is freaking awesome man! This is actually one of the better covers I heard so far . You made my day :)

[@FalKKonE]

Glad to hear, mate :)

[@SnackToxin]

I actually felt some chills down my back listening to this. Bravo as always.

[@scinydeath3595]

The nostalgia train is too strong in this one, you're always the best FalKKonE XD

[@pandabatman]

I love the song, this remix, the artwork..........wut is that giant ass sword, that's not how its supposed "2B" *I'll show myself out*

[@sambony94]

To be fair, that sword can be acquired very early on, is useful, and doesn't look at all out of place

[@pandabatman]

I know, it's just the size in comparison to the Virtuous contract and 2B, The treaty is just the contract but a little bigger, so it does look a little out of place for me, sorry.

[@garth-jester6517]

Thats how her heavy vlade was meant to look like

[@davilong]

An absolutely haunting cover. You're gonna be huge one day.

[@thespoonman4208]

Hey FalKKonE will you ever do metal covers of metal gear rising music? That would be awesome but it's all your desicion. By the way great music man. This is absolutely perfect.

[@StarshadowMelody]

I thought Metal Gear Rising's music was already metal?

[@thespoonman4208]

Lost Melody Yeah, but what if it was even MORE metal?

[@Senko_The_Fox]

Thats pretty metal if you ask me.

[@nikopteros1659]

Oh my god this is just amazing falkkone you are so talented dude this is one of the best covers i've found to this day of this song no wonder it has 2.9 thousand likes and only 26 dislikes that i would imagine are from people that don't enjoy metal beacuse i can't think of a reason to dislike this song if you like metal and this game

[@snakeyesoldier2220]

What an amazing soundtrack

[@MrBowseroppo]

This probably has to be the best cover ive ever heard for this song, amazing. :D

[@saumyagaikwad2248]

Damn even started doing Nier now! One of my fav games of all time has to have one of the best soundtracks, looking real great! keep it up!

[@thelazywanderer_jt]

Saumya Gaikwad We're waiting till you finish it the second time~!

[@knvs2931]

I find that the best Falkkonized music involve SoulsBourne series, Nier Automata & other games with deep & dark kind music. Your covers rock!

[@Wandering_Tenshi]

FUCK YES!!! One of my favorite songs from Nier!!! Was waiting for this for so long dude! Thanks for this and for all of your hard work! Also, can't wait to hear the vocals you picked for this song, once everything goes through!

[@sounddreamer685]

Woooow, amazing work !

[@danielfc3010]

WHY CAN'T I GIVE THIS MORE THAN ONE LIKE?? I LOVED IT!

[@TobyKBTY]

oh God this made my whole month. Thank you for this.

[@gramrandi5130]

This version is so fcking good. Thank you. City ruins soundtrack always tied me with such sadness especially after 2b was gone. This version actually made me choke up some.

[@sulo7658]

I got this game few days ago and now i get this? This is amazing.

[@RaHents]

so epic and intense with the choir, I like this

[@sar_ptolemy]

plans for more two steps from hell? i would suggest Flight of the Silverbird next

[@FalKKonE]

yeh, there's still quite a plenty I wanna do

[@Iluvtopuzzle1967]

Can you please do some more touhou, it does not matter which song you they are all good

[@Lewdology]

A2 >> 2B, play the game to find out why.

[@ChrisMorray]

Agreed, I love both of them though.

[@kupo6905]

A2 is better, she has the saddest secret boss fight ever (ending y), more beautiful, berserk for the win, she's just too good. Kupo!

[@ChrisMorray]

Yeah her berserk mode is the best. If you get offensive healing chips you can keep bashing your enemies with insane damage.

[@timawaviking526]

@Deserve Not Desire I had nothing against 9S. But as he lost 2B and discovered the truth of YoRHa I hated him. At least I feel sympathy for Eve because he loved his brother and just wanted them both to be away from anything that could hurt them. 9S just couldn't process that YoRHa was a lie and uses that as an excuse to go psycho. A2 even tried convincing him and he wouldn't listen. 9S is nothing more than a spoiled brat on a tantrum.

[@wl4810]

​@@timawaviking526 No ... He is a frustrated, conflicted and completely lost, character, who doesn't know what to do anymore. Saying this sort of this is EXTREMELY reductive of the writing of the characters ... Why do people think he just loved 2B ? He also hated her like a mad man ! He wanted to kill her. But he was also super possessive about her, so much that he can't allow A2 to look like her and must kill her. But he also loves her. But he is playing a super dry hacking game with his shota appearance while 2B gets to enjoy her super dynamic ( and pleasurable for android, reminder ) fights with the robots ( and the players ) in her sexy outfit, he feels blue balled as hell. 9S is literally the top 1 character, even if he isn't likable.

[@szymonczorny7410]

great as always

[@Slu5h3]

just found this channel yesterday and i have yet to find anything that doesnt sound bad. and i am very picky with my music

Great work as always. Keep it up! Can't wait for your next one.

[@Noctis457]

after listening to the entirity of your NieR covers, I'm fairly convinced that there is no piece you can't cover, do a load more FFXV covers and I'll be sure!

[@VII0777]
