Calamity has a deep and complex lore so let me keep it simple. The boss you're fighting here is Supreme Calamitas, The Brimstone Witch. The song is describing her thoughts and feelings about the state of the world. The god of this world, Yharim, has brought chaos and destruction on it, hence the name "Calamity". You're goal is to kill him to bring peace to the world. At the end of the fight, Calamitas expresses hope that you might be powerful enough to destroy Yharim, as she herself has lost hope. There's a whole bunch of stuff I left for the sake of simplicity, but that's should give you an idea of what this mod is

[@silverstar1614]

Technically Yharim is not a god, but is an INSANELY strong king, a tyrant. He made so many fucked up things in the world just to become strong, he is such a tyrant that he knows for himself that if he should die he will be going to hell.

[@silverstar1614]

And because of this he tries to freeze hell

[@EmeraldEmsiron]

I would reckon the vocals are a third party describing calamitas and the player's thoughts and actions. a litteral greek chorus. the first section is definitely for calamitas, the second section is def for the player, and the third is a grand chorus of the state of the world.

The mod completely changes the game and the level of effort that went and continues to go into it is astounding, gameplay, story, and lore wise but none more so (in my opinion) than DM DOKURO's contribution to the music. The music of calamity breathes new life into the game in a way only music can and there are so many tracks worth looking at there. This is the final bosses theme and its epic composition reflects just how truly momumental the fight is. Your observation about ascending and descending is on point as jumping and flying around is a hallmark of Terraria combat.

to be honest i think calamity would be far better off as its own thing, separate from terraria. the music and story is cool, but if we look past that and see it as just a terraria mod it's actually not that great calamity's bosses are poorly designed, with a majority of the difficulty coming from seemingly random floating projectiles as opposed to unique attacks that align with the boss' theme like certain mods such as polarities do it the progression, for the most part, i think is alright. some weapons and materials are quite grindy to acquire such as life alloys that just require mining or grinding the ravager over and over. i think the early-hardmode rework was very well done, though. it was very enjoyable. the rogue class feels a little unnecessary, since a lot of thrown melee weapons such as the daybreak already fit the category of "rogue" almost perfectly. not to mention how ridiculously overpowered a lot of weapons from the class are. calamity devs limit their own work by putting it within the boundaries of a terraria mod, which is quite a poor medium to use in order to tell a story. they have talent and it shows, i just feel like it's being used in the wrong place.

@@eater9494 I manage to not really get hit in the fights all that much. Exo mechs aside (cause yeah they are just random projectiles) most of the bosses aren’t that bad. I do have to say though, I liked the really old DoG a lot better, the one where it would spawn a second copy in at full health when it got to 30% HP, and you’d have to weaken the second one below that before killing the first, or you’d end up in an infinite loop. That made it much more about strategy and not just skill. Plus it would charge you much more aggressively then, so it felt like a real threat. Now it just sorta moves close to you and you have to make sure you don’t let it get to close. Pretty big downgrade in my mind.

Fascinating that you mention ascending and descending, "flying in the sky" is how you described it. At this point in the fight (since this is a boss theme), you're being chased by very big projectiles and have to fly in slow circles for the rest of the fight to keep them from catching up to you, and the music follows that gameplay loop, you can even hear that circular motion within those parts you were describing and I think it's so cool! You can even hear the projectiles come in at 9:07, and it's incredible that even someone who has never seen the fight picked up on it. As a couple other comments already pointed out, there's lyrics and you should definitely look them up, it gives a lot more context to the actual fight. Love the video, great work as always!

[@noaburr]

Not just that, but the ascension and descension fits in a less literal sense too. As you go through the phases the boss alternates between vulnerable and invulnerable states, forcing the player to fight hard and deal as much damage as they can before they're whittled down, and retreating and trying to survive the onslaught as the boss becomes immune to damage. The whole fight becomes a pendulum oscillating in opposite directions as Calamitas and the player alternate between hunter and hunted.

What I like is that the music simulteniously talks to two persons. The choir section is meant to adress the boss (Supreme Calamitas) as her confidence becomes more and more shaken the further the fight progresses. Meanwhile the solo singer talks to the player, trying to shake them as much as possible, while the player becomes more and more anxious to stay alive, as the fight progresses towards the end. The singer clearly tries to steal the end of the fight hype, hoping to replace it with fear of dying so close to the end.

[@DodgeThatAttack]

That's actually an interesting concept since, as the player, you only get a vague idea of what calamitas may be thinking, symbolised with the harder to understand lyrics Meanwhile the more contrasted pop singing is directed towards you as it actively tries to get your attention

I'm sure others could explain it better but at its core Terraria is an adventure game centred around resource management and crafting systems. You defeat bosses, take their loot, explore the massive world, and search for rare materials so you can defeat harder bosses. Also found it funny that you mentioned the idea of the chords wavering up and down as that pretty accurately describes the character's movement during boss fights, desperately flying up and down to avoid projectiles. The Calamity mod is a modification for Terraria which adds more than double the content of the base game. Most of the music in the mod was done by DM DOKURO as a labor of love with tracks ranging from EDM to orchestral metal and even synthwave. The mod is focused on providing the player with difficult-but-rewarding encounters and stretching the game well past the base game limitations.

The main lore of terraria calamity is about a tyrant(Yharim) who wants to kill all gods. Yharim was saved from exile from Yharon(the dragon mentioned in the song that you kill before this fight). But after all of the crimes the tyrant has committed, he decided to hide and wait until someone worthy can come to kill him. Calamitas(the final boss of the mod and the boss for this song) was trained from yharim. Calamitas wants to protect him at all costs.

[@ze_darku_magician5504]

YES I WAITED LIKE 6 MONTHS FOR THIS! LESSSS GOOOOO! THANK YOU MAN! A little bit of explanation is needed to fully enjoy this song however: First of all the entire choir is made up of english lyrics (very hard to tell for me at least) that give the song much more meaning than just interpreting it as "video game choir". The lyrics are structured in 3 different parts that seperate the song (noticable because of the major tonal shifts). Lyrics go as follows: -=Grief=- No more holding back They'll wish for demise They thought they were invincible But you could see through their hollow lies You've seen how far they've come How many they've slain You will gladly tear their limbs apart All before they start to kill again They were seen as a threat by the moment the dragon was killed by their hand Now you're sent to demolish the foe upon your ruler's despondent demand Something tells you they have scaled in their power Should they win, it shall be your final hour But you still have control of the fight If they mess up, you might have a chance to destroy them But is this the right path that you've taken? Are your morals correct, or mistaken? Are you sure you want to lose your mind From a legend whose power could salvage mankind? -- This first chapter is written from the witches/(bosses) point of view telling how she was sent to kill the player (who was at that point already known as an absolutely manic, undefeated killing machine across the world) against her will and the doubts she has regarding whether she can defeat him/her (the player) or whether it's even the morally correct thing to do for the world at large. -=Lament=- You have known for certain Your path is one of justice All those who try to obstruct shall have paid the ultimate price Yet, upon inspection Your foe is overwhelming But you remember what she tried to sacrifice Signs of self-disappointment start infiltrating (choir: These putrid emotions begin to take control) Symptoms of paranoia begin invading (choir: Such petty emotions have sabotaged your soul) Your mental fortitude is fading Losing trust, ending friendship, and rage escalating Right on the road to your sadness Watching closely as courage turns into madness Are you sure you'd want to lose your life From a witch who had caused you nothing but strife? -- This second part speaks for the player. The choir starts singing of the player's path for justice, defeating powerful foes to save the world but when the singer (who is supposed to represent the player-character) kicks in the tale turns around full 180* and reveals the player's own doubts about how all the killing they'd done on their path for self-righteousness can never be justified and wears them down. -=Epiphany=- The end has come; The witch and the prophecy Deciding fates with the world on the line Who shall emerge From the ashes of calamity? How shall this fable end through these legends intertwined? End of reasoning Carnage and pain A feral sense of dominance As all the blood melts into the rain A clash of history In blood, sweat and tears This war will cause our world to change And will be remembered through the years -- This entire part is played twice. It represents the climax of the piece telling of the epic battle between the player and the witch who are currently fighting over the future of the world and their ideals. -=The final 4th part also has a name but I forgot it and it's not listed in the original description so well...=- This part is only the last minute or so with the trademark DMDOKURO bells (tm). I'd guess it represents the release from struggle for the witch and the players mourning for her death knowing that if he fails now going forward it will have been in vain. (we'll just leave out the part where the witch becomes a npc after the fight ok... lore-wise she's dead at that point). Hope this was helpful!

You have no idea how much I love seeing this music being listened and reacted to. Very much some of my favorite video game music in this and roar of the jungle dragon. So glad to see someone who truly appreciates music reacting to this song.

[@RiptorrZ]

This song shifting around constantly is very reminiscing of the different "phases" of the boss fight in the game too, playing it while listening to this song makes it even better, especially that last bit where the last boss says their final words (didn't wanna spoil too much but its really amazing). Just leaving it here in case no one else mentioned it

[@nitropenguinz]

Shout out to whoever requested Terraria Calamity music, it bangs really hard and it feels underrated because it's for an unofficial mod. This game is also an excellent stream game imo (especially with Calamity). There is a ludicrous amount of cool things to discover, many epic fights, but also a lot of downtime to build, gear up, explore, etc. It's one of those games that once you start you can't stop, it's that good.

[@striderofnorth2368]

This really sucker punched me, damn. We are just having a calamity playthrough with my friends and the music is, yes, really good ^-^

[@Margonxp]

Calamity mod is probably the most popular mod (considered by a lot of people ,,The best mod") for Terraria, which is such a great game. This OST plays during the final boss battle which is literally agonizing (Because of the difficulty level, bullet hell), the song has 4 phases that changes during battle and it fits so well for that epic final, last fight. I really recommend listening to more songs from Calamity Mod, they are pretty awesome.

[@Solesteam]

I feel like there is no best mod: Calamity makes you feel powerful after each challenge you overcome and when you go back to an older foe you can now melt them just to show how much stronger you've become Fargos Souls presents you insurmountable challenge after insurmountable challenge even after you've won you can go back to a recently defeated one to relive the intensity Thorium extends on the Terraria feel making it seem like the adventure continues Split is flashy neon eye candy enough to give your eyes diabetes. In a good way of course.

[@Egghead012]

No, the final boss isnt out yet, and his name is Yharim, The Jungle Tyrant

[@Solesteam]

@@Egghead012 As of now, the sorcerer who holds the mod titles name is the final boss since as you said, the planned finale isn't out, like when Skeletron was the final blss before hard mode was a thing, and then the mechanical trio, and then Ocram, and then Golem. not sure if it was that specific order, I'm not well versed in Terrarian history.

[@convects9656]

@@Solesteam i think that golem was ever the "final boss" of the game, as ocram existed right until moon lord got added. (Im also not well versed it terraria history)

[@Solesteam]

@@convects9656 I heard from someone pretty recently that Ocram was actually a lot weaker than Golem. That pared with the fact that his spawn items were made out of items before and somewhere in the middle of the mech tier of items makes Ocram not the final boss during the time between Golem being added and Ocram's removal.

The choir in this song is actually singing English lyrics, although not so clearly. If you search up the lyrics you will see them describing the battle against you and the enemy and the morals of it.

I absolutely gods damned agree on the classical music's evolution being in videogames. The games Fromsoftware made and their respective soundtracks are the living proof of such a sentiment, honestly. Since we're in the topic, definitely give a try to Universal Colapse. It may not be entirely classical, but it's absolutely worth listening to. Hope you enjoy it!

[@NobleLeader6]

So, this song plays during one of the last bosses you ever fight in the mod, at least for now. The boss herself is a witch named Calamitas and her magic is apparently strong enough to dissipate part of an ocean, and make a portion of hell unlivable. Like, actual hell full of fire, she managed to make an entire section of hell even worse. But she didn't do these things willingly. She had been taken captive by another character from the mod, Yharim. She was essentially broken down by Yharim and used as his personal magical executioner. Eventually she gets free and runs from Yharim, trying to just ignore everything and live the rest of her life in fear. Until the player character, simply called the Terrarian in the mod, summons her to fight them. This theme then plays as Calamitas tries to kill the player, until eventually her will is broken down and you win. The boss fight is hard but rewarding imo, and the theme changes and loops depending on what phase you're on.

[@ryanschulte3742]

This is why I like your Marco, how many other music reviewer‘s will discredit it just because it’s a mod that isn’t made by the publisher, but you sat there and listen to the full thing and gave your opinion on it.

[@Kasai606]

I'll never understand how you can picture such a vivid picture and story while it lines up almost exactly with what usually happens when this song plays, a back and forward, up and down flying dodging and in the end a fall to the ground. A short talk, and the end.

[@truetichma]

In your Le Signora reaction video I watched recently, after you said how little real opera is used in game soundtrack, I instantly thought about this piece of music and how'd you react to it. Glad I'm not the only one, this track is definitely worth your time!

[@TNTspaz]

4:50 One of the Calamity songs actually unironically got a orchestral hall performance recently. The Leviathan Trilogy. Was done by the intermission Orchestra

[@Enneamorph]

Something to note about the song phases: (The choir is actually speaking in English) Phase 1 - The choir follows Calamitas’ point of view, commenting on her thoughts and reservations/doubts about the player (and herself!) and how much of an unstoppable force they’ve become: “You will gladly tear their limbs apart / All before they start to kill again” “But is this the right path that you’ve taken? / Are your morals correct or mistaken?” Phase 2 switches to the player’s point of view, while Calamitas cranks up the heat by attacking faster and summoning her brothers. Despite being a god-killing monstrosity by now, Supreme Calamitas is proving herself to be on par with, or even BETTER than you. The player begins to have doubts, and fear starts welling up in the back of their mind, that they might not make it out alive: “Signs of self-disappointment start infiltrating / Symptoms of paranoia begin invading / Your mental fortitude is fading” Phase 3 is when the player gets ahold of themselves and Calamitas starts to understand that she’ll seriously die if she doesn’t give this fight everything she’s got. She becomes desperate, releasing every summon and firing as many brimstone fireballs as she can muster in an attempt to kill the player. The choir is now taking note of the scale of the battle, how it’s like a war between two deities: “End of reasoning / Carnage and pain A feral sense of dominance / As all the blood melts into the rain A clash of history / In blood, sweat, and tears This war will cause our world to change / and will be remembered through the years…” And Phase 4 is when, having put her all into the battle to no avail, Calamitas gives up, admitting her defeat.

[@Dhapizza]

I love this song, because it aims at a different feeling than most terraria boss music, both vanilla and modded. This track, rather than trying to get you exited or get your heart pumping at 999 bpm, it perfectly embodies the feeling a final boss in a game like this should have, which is the feeling that what you're doing is the final step to a resolution, it works especially considering it's a very important character in the lore of the mod.

[@JosepiThe13th]

YOOOOOO I’ve been waiting for this!!! I’m so happy you actually took my suggestion. People go crazy for Roar of the Jungle Deagon (understandable), but in my opinion, this is Calamity music at its peak. The combining of all these different genres and making them all come together in a way that works both in and out of the game is just brilliant. Truly a masterpiece, and shows just how much freedom you can have when writing a piece for a video game.

[@JosepiThe13th]

To follow-up on this, this is going to involve spoilers for the Calamity mod, but basically, this music is what plays during the current final boss, Supreme Calamitas (they plan to add more bosses after her, but for now, she’s the final boss). Her lore is complicated, but to put it simply, she is only fighting you because she feels like that is the only choice she has. She knows she’s fighting on the wrong side, but it’s the only thing she knows, so she fights you. The ending bit is much more somber because during that part of the fight, she isn’t fighting anymore. She knows you’re stronger than her, so she gives up and let’s you strike her down. It’s kinda sad, because truthfully, she never wanted to fight you in the fight place, but she did it anyway because it was her duty. And in the end, she doesn’t want to die, but knows it’s the only way forward for you, so she lets you finish the job.

[@JosepiThe13th]

The lyrics for that middle section, called “Grief” goes like this: Signs of self-disappointment start infiltrating. Symptoms of paranoia begin invading. Your mental fortitude is fading. Losing trust, ending friendships, and rage escalating. Right on the road to your sadness, Watching closely as courage turns into madness, Are you sure you want to lose your life From a witch who has caused you Nothing but strife? To me, I believe it’s speaking to Calamitas. Maybe her conscience or something telling her that she shouldn’t be fighting this fight. But honestly, it’s up to interpretation, and that’s what I like about it.

Like the biome , the brimstone crags , where the Brimstone Elemental is one of few survivors in the biome , hence the title of her track , “Left Alone” .

Here's the Lyrics: - =Grief - Perspective of Calamitas= - No more holding back They'll wish for demise They thought they were invincible But you could see through their hollow lies You've seen how far they've come How many they've slain You will gladly tear their limbs apart All before they start to kill again They were seen as a threat by the moment the dragon was killed by their hand Now you're sent to demolish the foe upon your ruler's despondent demand Something tells you they have scaled in their power Should they win, it shall be your final hour But you still have control of the fight If they mess up, you might have a chance to destroy them But is this the right path that you've taken? Are your morals correct, or mistaken? Are you sure you want to lose your mind From a legend whose power could salvage mankind? - =Lament - Perspective of the Player= - You have known for certain Your path is one of justice All those who try to obstruct shall have paid the ultimate price Yet, upon inspection Your foe is overwhelming But you remember what she tried to sacrifice Signs of self-disappointment start infiltrating (These putrid emotions begin to take control) Symptoms of paranoia begin invading (Such petty emotions have sabotaged your soul) Your mental fortitude is fading Losing trust, ending friendship, and rage escalating Right on the road to your sadness Watching closely as courage turns into madness Are you sure you'd want to lose your life From a witch who had caused you nothing but strife? - =Epiphany= - The end has come; The witch and the prophecy Deciding fates with the world on the line Who shall emerge From the ashes of calamity? How shall this fable end through these legends intertwined? End of reasoning Carnage and pain A feral sense of dominance As all the blood melts into the rain A clash of history In blood, sweat and tears This war will cause our world to change And will be remembered through the years

the church bell means "resignation" is the part where calamitas knows she is about to die and stops moving so the player can kill her without resistance, you literally went through the whole game to get to that moment where you have at your feet the final boss and you realize that he also has feelings and a little sanity in his mind (calamitas suffers from mental disturbance and is controlled by forbidden dark magic so in the whole fight you fight against someone corrupted by power).
