This is the "Oh no! Here come the mechon!" song.

[@homuraakemi103]

Metal Face: “PLAY, MY ORCHESTRA! LET THE HOMS KNOW HOW HOPELESS THEIR SITUATION IS! PLAY!”

[@SeriousStriker]

Or "Oh no! Here come the Telethia!"

[@estherkirakawaii]

I'm really hearing it

[@Justforvisit]

I'm really reading it!

[@thisdude9446]

"they're eating people"

[@Unawareofsurroundings]

i’m getting flashbacks of a hot butter knife

[@estripuloski7052]

Like a hot knife through butter!

[@marioxenobladedokifan614]

2:50 is my most favorite part of this track, that part just feels so intense. This track really gives you the urgent feeling that you have to hurry up and reach your destination or leave the place before it's too late.

Same

"Autodestruct T minus 60 Seconds. Have a nice day!"

[@Spamus]

The attack on Colony 9 was the moment I knew this game was top tier. I was completely hooked for the next 100+ hours

[@strongshot6227]

Me: hears this Also me in new game plus: the people in the colony can wait

[@insecdroid]

Gadolt, this is for you! This is for the people of Colony 6!

I absolutely love how over-the-top intense this song is. It constantly feels incredibly urgent, never giving you a moment of peace. It's incredibly unsettling in this way. I think the instruments do an incredibly good job of this, the strings and drums especially. Every part is absolutely fantastic, as each melody is memorable and creates a perfect feeling for the player's situation. My favourite part is 1:52. The melody on the percussion along with the siren like sound on the strings is fantastic. I've never heard anything like it before, and it definitely sets this song apart. Despite all the separate melodies, this song sounds incredibly cohesive. It flows so naturally and works. This song is one of the most stressful things I've ever heard, with incredible melodies and instrumentation on top of that.

[@GearTech147]

The best part is you can have Shulk and Reyn's first heart-to-heart while the Mechon attack and this music plays.

[@b-bum]

Wait... what? I'm going to go start a new game plus file now so I can see this.

[@Eltrotraw]

@@GearTech147 I think I accidentally did this because I remember laughing at something with the mechon invasion

[@GearTech147]

I only know about that thanks to Xenoblade Comicals.

[@hallaloth3112]

The intense music is even more over the top when you are just wandering around fighting Flami and Brogs for sidequests because you have to wrap them sidequests up before moving on.

[@nicolaslasselin3525]

I'm really will hearing it in 2020 for the third time

[@GearTech147]

*I'M REALLY HEARING IT*

[@RobinRayelVEVOYael]

Corona virus crisis OST

[@benbach1546]

The one dislike is probably from Metal Face because Shulk stabbed him.

[@xenorayy]

That mechon attack on Colony 9, they nailed the scenery in the DE, especially the lighting of the colony in flames

[@lankthedank6931]

When you’re waiting for the bell to ring at the last day of school.

[@Justforvisit]

2:53 and onwards = That's the musical embodiement of the phrase "All Hell Breaks Loose"

[@nightpurple372]

this game makes me wanna learn and master the violin. these violins in this song, it's like the angels played them. so beautiful!

[@amymilligan6145]

Dude literally got the biggest fright when I was playing the game with heavy sounding bass earphones

[@BobOofinson]

oh yea. the theme of jumping from the cylinder hangar straight to the coast because saving time is great.

[@mphayes98]

From 2:17 to the end, this song is a monstrosity

[@Jojo-on7pk]

wah, this is crisis, yes?

[@anwarbenkiran3513]

yes

[@cable391]

Shulk: "Where's Dundun?! Fiora: "He's in there. He's not interested in this fight!"

[@user-vb1fc9tk9m]

ゾードのシーン このbgmがパッと途切れてオダマさんが弾き飛ばされた(?)の迫力あって好きだったなあ

[@Measure_Head]

2:53 Youuu Cannot Defeaaaaat MEEEEEEEE

[@XBC3-4GOTY]

11/10

[@JlBUNROCK]

Oh... That's the npc i got the quest of dying

[@fimkiemusic]

Waa! This is crisis, yes?

[@solcanum8286]

This sounds very similar to music in the first Xenosaga game.

[@theanimeditor6400]

why do all the games i play now have a sequence like this. A normal peaceful place gets attacked out of nowhere and/or some crazy shit happens.

[@Shu_Utsugi1999]

2:18 va a quedar la caga

[@LumboDumbo]

Spoilers: Who else did side quests when this played so it became annoying
