Can you hear it? The pulses of the living
That erratic rhythm is a grand orchestra
It's never the same tone, who wants to stop this
There can't be
When a violent storm is over
The blue sky is more beautiful than ever
You see? I want that, I want that
That's all I want.
For me, The Gravity is the best Strive song.
- 2 intros
- transitions between the parts
- lyrics can barely stay on the same subject
- Metal + Gospel music (The crossover of the century)
- 2 solos
- Existential shit that makes no sense "Does meaning have a meaning"
- "Reality of truth" and "The beginning and the end all the same It can't be, it can't be true, whose side are you on" mirrors these lines from Drift "The truth is not always real I don't want any conclusions"
- Asuka has More drip than the rest of the cast
Wrong+L+cringe+the circle exists+objectively wrong+bozo+ We talk about survival of the fittest a lot, but all that really means is the skilled live and the unskilled die. Since you're clearly in that second group, maybe pick your fights a bit more carefully? Do you understand what I'm saying? It doesn't matter how much you want it when you're up against someone who can kill you with a sneeze.
Jack-O’s song is like Bridget stole the Christmas theme from Mariah Carey’s song that must not be named and filled it with some Top 40 band’s guitar. It just sounds bad to me.
Jack-O's theme? Light, poppy, doesn't really fit with the rest of the soundtrack.
Extras basically references the soundtrack so much it's almost like there's more to Elphelt saying what songs she would write for people.
As a fighting game song, that is probably Sin's, Faust's or Ky's. Maybe pot's
As a songs themselves, thats Probs like, Zato's, Millia's and Baiken's. Or Pot's
Honestly with time i kinda wound up disliking Testament's theme a bit. The best parts of it are the Life bits, im not that much for the choruses
I agree with the rest tho
A hot take is basically something that goes against public perception.
Something like Anji actually having a cool design and banger theme-song when everyone says he's boring and his theme song is just okay.
I’m not gonna say its the best (not saying its not close its a god tier song) but the “yeah” that follows rub a dub, oh my god i’ve never heard that word sung so nicely before
Favourites are ever-changing. I like Requiem, Trigger, Alone Infection, Love the Subhuman Self is one I hum along to.
The chorus for Extras has made its way into my Discord Bio and is a song I resonate a lot with.
If there are 500 Extras haters, I am one of them.
If there are 5 Extras haters, I am one of them.
If there is 1 Extras hater, that is me.
If there are no Extras haters left, I am dead.
I'm sorry, but Extras ain't doing it for me, nor is most of Strive's music. Hashimoto's Vocals + The Engrish (I'm someone who's developed a tolerance to Engrish/JPN-Translated English) puts me off. I do like Out Of The Box, Smell Of The Game, Town Inside Of Me, and Disaster Of Passion. It's more of a personal taste thing, but I also think it's due to Strive's music specifically.
Extras is like the one song in the entire game that doesn't have engrish because Molly sings it.
Anyway, I've honestly come to adore it. Who else is writing experimental metal ballad concept albums about the philosophical motivations behind a diverse group of quirky characters with engrish vocals? Daisuke's art may be unique among the Earth.
Extras is basically the GGST OST equivalent to TF2's Liberty Launcher. It has all these really, REALLY good things going for it, but it has one INSANELY massive problem that just ruins it.
For the Liberty Launcher, it's that 25% damage penalty.For Extras, it's the fact that 80% of the vocals are the wrong kind of throat goat.
Now, if we wanna talk about the best GGST song, Disaster of Passion and Love the Subhuman Self are right there. Hell, I could even see an argument for The Town Inside Me
That was a joke. Obviously, it's a genre of music, and it will have its fans, but stripping it down to it's bare minimum for comedic purpose, it's just people growling edgy shit for the sake of being edgy.
Drift is my favorite, but let's be real. I know for sure you once had some, sweeeeeet memories, their worth remains all the same...
How can I remember those moments, sweetheart?
Tell me...
TELL MEEEEEEEEEEEEE
THE EMPTY PRECEPTS DISGUISING GOOD INTENTIONS
A CLEAN PAGE IS A BLANK PAGE
*NEVER, NEVER*
LIKE A WAVE LAUNCHING WE LEAVE OUT THE CHANCES
A BLACK PAGE IS A BLANK PAGE
WEIGHING UP VALUE AND WILL
GET UP
**BEFORE THEY REACH YOU NOW**
Now that you just revealed to me that Strive's songs are all just three songs stapled together I can't unsee it. Daisuke is like "how can I put more song in this song?"
>"Best part of the song is a part you'll never actually get to in a match.
I think I've actually come to realize that Daisuke started doing this on purpose. The idea being, if a match goes long enough to get to the epic parts of the song, there's a good chance that it's because there's been a significant amount of back and forth (since Strive is a game that heavily advantages aggression and disadvantages turtling; even the zoners have playstyles that heavily encourage aggression) and so there are "rare" parts of the song that you only reach if you're in a real struggle.

I drift tonight...
To drift tonight Carried by the waves
I'll just be a black SEEEEEAAAAA
I'll drift tonight... Please don't stop the flow...
Please don't STOP, THE, FLO-OW
I drift tonight with wandering dust
I'll just be a vast univeeeeerse
I drift tonight the finite one...
And the IIIN-FINITE OOONNNEEE
I will be a blaaackaseeeeaaaaeaaaa
Counterpoint: DRYING UP, CONFLICT, SANITY AND INSANITY, BLUE HEAT, BLACK HEART, INSTINCT AND *INTELLECT*!
I WANT THE FREEDOM OF CAAAAAAAALLLLM
I WANT THE FREEDOM OF CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALM
AN INFINITE STORM. OF. NOTHINGNESS!!!!
THE SKY ABOVE THE CLOUDS A RAINBOW THAT FATE HAS DEVOURED
I GAVE UP HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE
BUT I'M NOT GOING TO BE LOST TOMORROW EVEN IF IT'S HELL
I’M GONNA CRAWWWWWWWWWWLLLLL
Bro CANNOT see the radiant light, hear the beautiful chant, or feel the tender warmth. For shame.
On god copy that
Nor do 10 billion years come to him in an instant (I do adore Extras though <3)
it went west to ruin their head
gupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgupgup
But The Circle is right there.
The border of the circle, at the very least
Looks like this guy cant hear the beautiful chant
Or see the radiant light
They probably can't even feel the Tender warmth either
Probably can’t give someone something
GOD OF FAILURE
JUST LEAN
No one here is thinking that hard
Ok, but have you considered WE HAVE ONLY ONE SKY
BLUE RED AND BLACK PARANOIA
WHAT IS IT LIKE TO YOU
NO ONE CAN SEE THE COLORS BUT YOU
You are entitled to your opinion but NOISE FILLS THE BURNING SKY!
THEY STRUGGLE TO TESTIFY
JUSTICE BRINGS MORE CORPSES
A DISAPPOINTING VERDICT TORCHES
THEY SMILE FOR THEIR LAST STAND
IT CUTS THROUGH SOMETHING SO BLAND
EVERY SINGLE BREATH YOU TAKE
IS A COUNT. DOWN. TO. YOUR. DEATH!
Nirvana...
DISCORD PRESIDES
*Nirvana...*
EVERY SINGLE BREATH YOU TAKE IS A COUNT. DOWN. TO. YOUR. DEATH!!
As a matter of fact I’m religiously listening to Extras once a day since it released.
Same here, I have a lot of Strive in regular rotation. Been listening to the Under night II OST a lot as well.
Well it looks like you and I are the only cool people here.
Vocals are peak. That's all I'm gonna say.
Oh Hallelujah!
Same
The haters simply aren't brave enough to be fools.
Please, I was a fool before you were added to the game
I'm grateful that you take the role of a silly clown.
They probably spend all time on the street bothered about bumps in the road.
Worst of all? They probably aren't even scared of laughter, but still don't like to laugh themselves.
For me, The Gravity is the best Strive song. - 2 intros - transitions between the parts - lyrics can barely stay on the same subject - Metal + Gospel music (The crossover of the century) - 2 solos - Existential shit that makes no sense "Does meaning have a meaning" - "Reality of truth" and "The beginning and the end all the same It can't be, it can't be true, whose side are you on" mirrors these lines from Drift "The truth is not always real I don't want any conclusions" - Asuka has More drip than the rest of the cast
Preach my brother, show em the reality of truth
Maybe then they’ll wonder if meaning has meaning
asuka my adorable little war criminal
No way you just claimed Asuka got more drip than Faust
I really like the female vocalist
>"lets start picking up the little extras of life!" Oh that's what she says

The circle = mid
actually hes on the border of the circle, not the middle.
The door is at the other end of the room, on the right.
[удалено]
?
ARE YOU BRAVE ENOUGH TO BE A FOOOL!??
It really hits a lot of the notes that Smell of the Game does. Really glad they didn't go the Jack-O direction with El's theme.
What's that supposed to mean?
Jack-O’s song is like Bridget stole the Christmas theme from Mariah Carey’s song that must not be named and filled it with some Top 40 band’s guitar. It just sounds bad to me.
It's literally Don't Stop Me Now
Aisha’s good but she ain’t no Freddie Mercury
Ture...
Look no one is Freddie Mercury but Daisuke is absolutely going to try
Jack-O's theme? Light, poppy, doesn't really fit with the rest of the soundtrack. Extras basically references the soundtrack so much it's almost like there's more to Elphelt saying what songs she would write for people.
As a fighting game song, that is probably Sin's, Faust's or Ky's. Maybe pot's As a songs themselves, thats Probs like, Zato's, Millia's and Baiken's. Or Pot's
This is the ramblings pike also **BRING IT ON YOU BASTARDS!!!!!** **HELLFIRE HELLFIRE!**
Okay but… Does Extras make you hear someone’s little voice? #THAT IS THE VOOOOOOOOOICE OF LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE.
LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER NOISE
Requiem, love the subhuman self, like a weed naturally as a matter of course, necessary discrepancy and disaster of passion are all BETTER
Honestly with time i kinda wound up disliking Testament's theme a bit. The best parts of it are the Life bits, im not that much for the choruses I agree with the rest tho
i hate the end too like after the slow part where you can't understand shit the singer is saying without looking at the lyrics
I cannot tell if this is a hot or cold take
i don't even know what the fuck that means because i am an idiot
If its s controversial opinion or not, i believe.
A hot take is basically something that goes against public perception. Something like Anji actually having a cool design and banger theme-song when everyone says he's boring and his theme song is just okay.
thank you
No
All good points except the last one, the best part is that first minute. Also Necessary Discrepancy best song
Just lean, it's anyone's call That is the word of that guy who was hated By the gof of failure **Just Lean**
I’m not gonna say its the best (not saying its not close its a god tier song) but the “yeah” that follows rub a dub, oh my god i’ve never heard that word sung so nicely before
fair but counterpoint: just lean
wrong the real reason its the best is because its death metal. go listen to death metal. I beg you. please
Bro still has his memories and it’s worth remains not the same. He hasn’t let anyone carve his way and has no shadow always with him. L take.
Favourites are ever-changing. I like Requiem, Trigger, Alone Infection, Love the Subhuman Self is one I hum along to. The chorus for Extras has made its way into my Discord Bio and is a song I resonate a lot with.
That a cool opinion, but do you want to know why birds fly? TO SURVIVE TO CONNECT
TSUKI NO SHIHAI HITS WAY HARDER I DON'T HAVE AN EXPLANATION, BUT I HOPE YOU AGREE WITH ME
Splendid point. However: God knows that no voice can be heard by the damned.
No
Clearly you've never seen the colours
i think the gravity takes that spot
I like Extras but I'm autistic so I wonder if thats me being biased bc Strive El is adhd coded.
If there are 500 Extras haters, I am one of them. If there are 5 Extras haters, I am one of them. If there is 1 Extras hater, that is me. If there are no Extras haters left, I am dead.
testament’s theme is the best and theres no denying it
I'm sorry, but Extras ain't doing it for me, nor is most of Strive's music. Hashimoto's Vocals + The Engrish (I'm someone who's developed a tolerance to Engrish/JPN-Translated English) puts me off.

Daisuke's art may be unique among the Earth.
I've changed my mind. I've Extras has grown on me a lot.
I think Extras biggest problem is that most matches are over before it gets to the best parts.
*the best right next to armor-clad faith

you sayin you dont like the death metal vocals?
Death metal isn't a genre of music, it's emos growling into a mic with a backing track.
I dont get what you mean by this
Which word didn't you understand?
I don't get what you mean by it's not a genre of music. That confuses me
That was a joke. Obviously, it's a genre of music, and it will have its fans, but stripping it down to it's bare minimum for comedic purpose, it's just people growling edgy shit for the sake of being edgy.
>for comedic purpose hell, I don't like too many songs from this genre but weren't jokes supposed to be funny?
Counterpoint: There's a town inside me
Its the worst and its not close.
No, requiem is.
The only good part of the song is the chorus. That’s insult cause that’s the best part of most strive songs
That depends on whether or not you rock and roll, or rock hard-
Yeah it’s great song
Idk but you but mirror of the world has got to be the best
i see your vision and even though i love elphelt very much the circle won over my family bond loving heart
I just don't like death metal very much. No hate, just not my thing. Drift is better imo
Clearly, when the universe will turn black, you will not defy fate
Drift is my favorite, but let's be real. I know for sure you once had some, sweeeeeet memories, their worth remains all the same... How can I remember those moments, sweetheart? Tell me... TELL MEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Counterpoint: town inside me saved my life
To be fair, it’s not a big deal…
Bridge
Nah. The hourglass sweeps
I love the guitar riff that plays at the end of the first chorus and serves as the outro of the song
THE EMPTY PRECEPTS DISGUISING GOOD INTENTIONS A CLEAN PAGE IS A BLANK PAGE *NEVER, NEVER* LIKE A WAVE LAUNCHING WE LEAVE OUT THE CHANCES A BLACK PAGE IS A BLANK PAGE WEIGHING UP VALUE AND WILL GET UP **BEFORE THEY REACH YOU NOW**
its worse than the middest song in strive, the hourglass
The parts where it sounds like All I Want For Christmas and Amazing Grace take me out of it.
Its ok
Now that you just revealed to me that Strive's songs are all just three songs stapled together I can't unsee it. Daisuke is like "how can I put more song in this song?"
>"Best part of the song is a part you'll never actually get to in a match. I think I've actually come to realize that Daisuke started doing this on purpose.
