Thor's Theme | God of War

- The fast, terrifying strings. The deep, male chorus. Thor's theme is the best piece of recent composition every conceived from a video game and it shows. It perfectly conveys the intensity and tragedy of Thor's character arc in this game. I do wish we could have seen Thor more in this game however, as he could have played a much bigger and active role in the story and really push the narrative, but what we did get as pretty awesome!
#godofwar #godofwarragnarok #thor - Hudba
The killer of giants, The raging storm, The destroyer of armies, The personification of strength, The God of thunder…Thor
If he visited the Norns, this is probably what they would’ve said to him.
@@The_Nobody_Nowhere …He cannot change.
"You think you can come here, become a daddy, get a clean slate? That ain't how it works. You're a destroyer, like me!"
Oh no, I say when we're done
I'm not leaving till I see the real you.... GET UP!
we got a thing called blood payment in our land
You will join your sons!
Was this the god who burned down a pantheon because they hurt his feelings?!!!
Kratos lookin like he’s holding an ebony sword from Skyrim
true
Bruh yes
The Dovahki- WAIT NO IT'S THE GOD SLAYER RUN
Yes😂
well well, we have a man of culture here 🍷🗿
People said Thor looks ridiculous for having a beer gut, but in all honesty? If this iteration of Thor showed up at my front door, the house is officially his, I'd just be paying rent.
So long as you're not a giant and didn't happen to kill any one of his sons, offer him mead and you'll be aight
@@megarayquaza9054 hes drunk, no matter who are you gonna be dead,
@@megarayquaza9054 Don't forget the family he killed, after taking advantage of their hospitality lol. That spirit is still out for revenge.
Or just call Kratos.
i mean the guy's literally taller than kratos and built like a strongman. who wouldn't be pissing themselves?
The theme of a calm and reasonable person
Is he? ... A calm and reasonable person?
@@youssifsamir796when the moment calls for...calm
I like this version of Thor a lot more than MCU’s Thor. He looks intimidating
MCU Thor is a joke compared to this lol
X2
yeah is like, hide your Doritos or he will eat you instead.
He's a calm and reasonable person
Richard Cawley I dont get how thats funny to everyone
I love how he looks more like a strong man then a body builder, it’s cool to see that physique and it makes sense because he has to hit stuff hard lol
I think it's similar to an old medieval European physique of people like knights etc. that could afford meat and liked to drink while also doing physical activities. So they had muscles but also had a big caloric intake so those muscles were hidden under the fat. Of course, they didn't have as much of it as Thor has but he's a drunkard^2.
He was designed after the mythological thor, who had a good amount of body fat. The term is "barrel chested"
It’s also a little extra defense than a six pack
actually a bodybuilder thor makes much more sense. strongmen are all strength and no cardiovascular he would tire out in about 1 min. Hemsworth would be more accurate because the amount of fighting he does at a fast pace would naturally lean him out, probably resembling kratos' build.
@@SleepingNoble did you forget the bit where he drinks too much? You know that beer is caloric and that you can't just remove fat by hard work? You need to have a negative caloric intake.
Anybody else thinking about how fucked up it is that Odin's motif is so prevalent in thor's song?
It does a good job at showing how much influence Odin truly has over him. But I also like that at the end of the track 'The Hammer of Thor', Kratos's motif takes over, symbolising Thor's change and short-lived redemption.
@@noah8916 you love to see the circle of violence broken, if even briefly
@@JBD915 One could say that his influence on Vader was palpable
@@JBD915 it was definitely the same element, cool for pointing that out.
I mean, the first theme that makes up this video is literally called "The Hand of Odin".
0:00-4:00 - The Hand of Odin
4:00-7:23 - The Hammer of Thor
“You know my past?!”
“The ghost of Sparta thing? Yea!”
“Then you know what I’m capable of!”
"SHOW me!"
"oh my belly!"
What? Does he not say that?
@@dc_my_glorious_king oh we have got us into a fight
Ahhhhhhh
Pounds the ground
Really shows how Thor feels he knows what kratos done to an entire pantheon of gods yet still wants to see how much he can push him to his edge
@@adamboy0559 also when Thor said “Let the God of War out! Let me see him! I was like “are you sure you REALLY want that?” Knowing kratos killed his father Zeus , the King of the Greek Gods, the Aesir put up a good fight but are no match for Kratos, even as he ages, he gets stronger
Oh, we got a model father here!
the fuck you say?
@@TartanCabbage "Modi saught us in fear of you! He died of the wounds you gave him!"
@@Tamo_thehighschoolartist I could give a hot shit about your fatherly advice I want to see the God of war!
@@Tamo_thehighschoolartist this looks familiar
"I could give a hot shit about your fatherly advice. I wanna see the godGod of *War* !
this Thor is my favorite depiction of him in modern media ever, so fucking good.
Odin: "you kill who I tell you to kill!"
Thor: "No"
*shank*
“It’s a simple fucking concept!”
I didn’t want to do this, I DID not want to do this
I wished he'd lived for a bit longer so he could've fought his father with Kratos and Atreus and Freya it'd be the ultimate power team
@@adamboy0559 “ NOOOOOOOOOOOOO “
0:01 calm Thor
1:58 Thor suddenly thinks about killing something
2:36 Thor is calmer than before and feels nice for a moment
3:23 Thor thinks about his Mead addiction
4:01 he's getting pissed
4:14 THOR'S ANGRY
3:23 he's thinking about killing giants 😊
@@rinkibiswas3364it’s mead addiction
"we do not change, we are destroyers" -thor
3:23 really highlights the beautiful bittersweet tragedy that was Thor. The Hand of Odin😔
Has anyone noticed how the deep, intimidating voice of Ryan Hurst's Thor sounds a lot like Josh Brolin's Thanos?
I literally thought it was Josh brolin😅
@@rinkibiswas3364 Yeah they almost sound alike😅
That made it more epic for me
This Thor would actually go for the head, which he did.
For whatever reason people are confused so I'll clear it up, this is NOT Odin's theme. Yes the song name is "The Hand of Odin" but just because it has Odin in it doesn't mean it's his theme. Thor is the right hand of Odin and not to mention this song plays every time you fight him.
Its also could mean how Odin is in control of Thor actions
I meaaaan the theme kicks in the most in the intro once you open the door to meet Odin
Are you stating a fact or just hypothesizing?
Thor is, in a way, the "hand of Odin" so it makes perfect sense.
Makes sense Thor Is the hand of Odin as he dies he’s killed for disobeying Odins command to kill who he said to kill.
The intro 2:02 here goes so amazing. Its like you're staring at the end of the world for a second
Given that his and Odin's visit is what kickstarts the events that led to Ragnarok, you're technically not wrong.
What an epic battle!
I like Baldurs theme a bit more but this theme really represents what a threat Thor is... He really is a destroyer
what is the name of baldur´s theme?, y try to find that song but no where is that song.
@@robinstheles tanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@kyogre_morales I too, hold a great love towards tanks.
@@kyogre_morales All you had to do was search "Baldur's theme" 😐
@@radcut7404 Maybe because Thor hits you like a tank
Bro truly a Norse God. This version of Thor really gives me goosebumps when fighting him
People really bitched bout this version, but its the most accurate to the religions version
- Beer belly, since he is a drunk
- Gruesome as depicted in the lore
- Strong af
- Red hair
He was an absolute menace in thr first fight, too
Literally the only things missing are the helmet, gauntlet and the stone imbeded in his forehead
And it’s a bodybuilder body with a beer gut. He isn’t really fat, just a little puffy.
@@levihankenson3801 Strongman body you mean.
@@Chados. thanks, I did misspeak
Haven’t played yet but this sounds epic
You should, it was one hell of a story/game
Play it, you’re late
The art is good.... The game sucks... And boss sucks.... The end sucks... And Kratos is ridiculous
@@thobaslespagnol8189 hard disagree
@@thobaslespagnol8189 L take 🤡
Knowing what happens to Thor this sounds a lot sadder than it’s supposed too
The perfect carol to sing this Christmas 😏
I don't know how to describe this theme as anything other than intimidating and tragic. It's like listening to the whole story of Thor, the stories, the epics, the revelries. And then the downfalls, fears, and outright sadness of this "destroyer"
"Don't take all day."
Thor in actual Mythology: Protector of the Mankind!
Technically he was protecting man kind he just was fighting the Giants not all of them were good
its not like he was a villain in game, he was one of Odin`s weapons, he got some redemption though.
He is unless Odin commands him to be what Odin wants
Cap he that kind of people that don't give a s*** about anything killing giant killing innocent people is not a big deal to him like in Ragnarok he is just eating and drinking and killing giant
@Dark Schneider you are rude go read some Norse mythology and come back
"Let Me See The Monster Inside!"
The Greek Kratos would have turned Thor into a portable battery in like 5 minutes.
@@hyungminseo4258 So I keep hearing
@@hyungminseo4258 The game creators confirmed that old Kratos is stronger than young Kratos, so I think young Kratos would have been killed, but after a long fight
@@joiningbread8550 They also said he was holding back and Kratos said so aswell. Young Kratos would have pulled out the Blade of Olympus and all of Asgard would trembling at his approach.
I don't really get the complaint about his physique. It makes perfect sense why he has a gut. He's a depressed man with a severe drinking problem. Of course he's not going to be in perfect shape. Yeah he's a god, but we've learned from Kratos their bodies function identically to ours. At least it's actually treated like the serious problem is. Unlike the MCU who treated Thor's depression and body like a joke.
This shot and theme and characters designs everything badass.
Well, this is going right to the workout playlist 😁😁
This is truly the Thod of Gunder!
God Of War vs God of Thunder
@Andrew Ranger thor was from norway? no way
MCU thor slays a fashion show at most but God of War thor slays the battlefield
🔨
😂
2:01 ooooo goosebumps
People seem to forget in the first Thor movie,MCU Thor was just like this one before Odin disciplined him
Considering the lovely blonde hair, smooth face and chrome bewinged helmet...yeah, you've reminded me and I'm still forgetting.
Thor looked outright dangerous and powerful in the game, especially how they showed his height and stature (and the glare) when he confronts Heimdall. He's perfect.
Fighting him is also no joke. He's extremely fast and agile (not to mention he hits like a freight train).
also "I'd say the moment calls for calm." was real tense
Imo when he first meets kratos and just towers over him was the most intimidating time for Thor. He was much taller looking down at kratos calmly as kratos was wielding his axe
"OH, WE GOT A MODELED FATHER HERE!!" - Thor
Bro I don't know why people think this Thor doesn't look intimidating. In almost every Norse myth he's in he's either eating or drinking. Not to mention, him looking like this just makes him a man of sheer SIZE. It's intimidating as hell.
Well I would consider a drunk warrior who causally slays giants pretty intimidating
This start from 00:00 to 00:13 has such a scary tension.....
bro literally better than Chris Hemsworth Thor version 💀
Theirs just something with how menacing and medieval gow/mythology thor looks

RIP Big man
Friendly remider that this guy actually killed Kratos but he thought Kratos was holding back so he defibrillated him to get him to fight like a man.
He can kill Kratos, period. If Thor swats Jormungandr out of Ragnarök like a fly, there's no reason he couldn't do worse to Kratos.
When not holding back kratos could definitely beat thor but it would be a hard fight to be sure with is something that can be said about almost NONE of Kratos' other enemies.
Thor was the Kratos of the norse pantheon.
Some people fail to understand the strength behind his physique.. its not about abs and being dry as hell. Its the opposite. Trust me if you meet a 130kg strongman with this physique you, and your favorite 6 pack dude are going to meet Gods real quick.. Thor is the Besttt
But strongmen are not fighters, of course they can punch hard but against a heavy weight boxer or MMA fighter are no match.
@@corvus9829 That argument goes out the window when talking about Gods.
@@TaurusOxford Well, is the same about Thor being fat just because he loves to eat.
@corvus9829 of course, heavyweight fighter would have an advantage, but take a lightweight fighter, he will probably loose, just because of insane strength and overwhelming mass of the strongman. In case of Thor comparison,i believe God of War Thor would obliterate mcu thor. Your statement remains correct.
I can’t even watch MCU’s Thor after playing Ragnarok. No hate towards Chris Hemsworth as an actor, he’s just doing his job, but the MCU have made Thor into a jolly fucking child that makes corny ass one liners every scene he’s in. Ragnarok Thor was perfection, it’s a shame we didn’t get more screen time with him
Of course, Marvel only smells of a femme agenda and this shit is shoved into our mouths and forced to chew, and if it spits out, it will also be dubbed a sexist.
I never understood why people make the connection between mcu Thor and this one there completely different characters from different genres only thing they have in common is being adapted from Norse mythology
Well I mean, the way Mjolnir works in game clearly draws a lot of influence from the MCU version if nothing else.
@@kktallman6257 What influence are refering too? If you refer to the ability to come back once thrown or the lightning generation they were in the myths.
people need to stop comparing the MCU to everything else, the MCU was a decent adaptation of marvel, but now its seen as a joke because of the more recent content, there have always been problems with the MCU, its extremly difficult to adapt thousands of Comic book characters
@@cyrilmagi6201 In the myths it does come back to Thor's hand, but he doesn't use that to fly. Instead, he's got a chariot pulled by a pair of goats. The hammer flight is a Marvel invention.
@@elias.t In the game Thor is shown to be able to fl without the hammer most notably during the first fight with Kratos where he sends him flying away with his hammer before flying after him.
Eagerly waiting for someone to bring the translation of the lyrics of this song
There's a comment translating it under the official hand of Odin video
The feats of this version of Thor is scary. Despite his overweight appearance, HE IS EXTREMELY AGILE. He also has strength beyond human, and his own hammer smacked a 10 mile snake back in time 0_0
Beyond human is a massive understatement. He straight up splintered the branches of a 5 dimensional construct that contains a possibly infinite number of realities within it.
if you think about it thor is like odin, he looks slow but is powerfull typa guy while in reality bro can move as fast zues and do enough damage to send you back in time which is crazy if you think about it thor's look is deceiving
Overweight? Have you seen strongman competitors?
@@logandore4394 Yes. But how does it feel like to chug half the ocean, eat two goats for snack, drink mead 24/7, eat humongous amount of food and get so heavy that even one of your sons Magni and Modi also have to carry your drunk shit ass out of the Lodge?
@@logandore4394 he def got more of a gut than competetive strongmen due to their regimented diets, but we can chalk that up to Thor feasting and drinking mead withouot restraint lol. He aint exactly counting macros, so id say he's like a strongman on a *very* dirty bulk LOL
You seem like a calm and reasonable person... are you a calm and reasonable person
“We are destroyers.”
one important factor that limited Kratos was his blades. he was fine with the axe that could hold up against mjolnir but Kratos's pure god killing weapons are his blades.
but yeah Thor showed Kratos that he wasnt just any God and that he could hold himself really well against the ghost of sparta. but yeah when Kratos let out his old self on thor it was just a punch and that punch should have sent Thor flying back or something worse. that was the only let down in the fight.
See you SAY it should’ve sent Thor flying, but that’s the scary thing.
It SHOULD’ve.
Thor’s just able to take it.
Remember, they’re both holding back in the first fight. Thor’s just testing Kratos, seeing if he can push him to the edge; to see if Kratos can match up to the stories out of Greece. When Kratos finally lets himself go a little, Thor eats it and chuckles.
Their second fight happens after Kratos has spent an entire game upgrading, practicing, and getting new weapons. Thor has been drinking and having marital / parental problems with his wife and remaining kid.
These two would destroy the world if they really went at it.
i like how the first parts of his theme sounds tragic, despair, hopeless, but at the same time has some hints of angelic choirs in them. it mimics his characters really well. like he knows he can redeem himself, but he also knows that he'll always find himself back to his old, awful ways.
Real Thor
I love that it begins with a calm choir then it slowly rises to sky⚒💙
I think this Version of Thor would be a good match for Thanos.
In this whole song, i felt the pain of his life and his family, his strength, the intimidation of him being at John's door with the hood on. Like the song just resembled his pain and his strugles but also his power PERFECTLY
who tf is john
@@FakePaleJohn Kratos fan made name and confit
I love this music
Epic
5:21 - 5:51 EPIC ❄⚡
That transition was smooth 👍
The thing that makes thor terrifying is that he knows what kratos is capable of, and hes not scared of it.
Odin pretty much made Thor into the ultimate weapon. No less is expected for the greatest defender of Asgard 💪🗿👑⚡️⚔️
TF U SAY!!!🤬🤬🤬🔨⚡⚡⚡⛈️
"Was it LUCK? Did my sons die to blind, FUCKING luck?"
4:25 final thor fight... loved it ❤️
“You know my past? The ghost of Sparta thing? Yeah! Then you know what I’m capable of, SHOW ME!”
There should be a multiverse version of this version of Thor in the MCU. If MCU Thor faces this one, it's not only an exciting match of physicality. But a moral question of what Thor would have been if Odin had other intentions? CH's Thor would have a whole new appreciation toward life after the fight, provided he survives.
This Thor ( The perfect Thor) would beat the ever living BRAKES off MCU Thor.
Thor was an incredible character. My fav depiction of any Thor anywhere. So sad he died

Thank you
What I like is how there isn't one theme specific to Thor and one to Odin, but they instead hold different shades of the same theme. I don't know how preplanned any of that was, but it's interesting to consider Baldur having a standalone theme means he may have been more prolific, heavily ostracized, or even intentionally less invested in the trappings of his family and Asgard. Could also be none of those and the themes were strictly meant to service Baldur's solitary threat versus Thor and Odin's interwoven threat.
Would've been really interesting to see Odin, Baldur, Thor, Sif, Magni, Modi, Thrud, and Heimdall in each other's company in Asgard.
Them lyrics perfect it makes it sound like mortals are chanting him on
I got thors hammer right now actually
Same!
I honestly prefer this one over the MCU one 100%
least strongest alcoholic be like:
He's meant to be
If yall really wanna hear a fight head to 4:00
It is the theme for all the Aesir gods.
Unlike Marvel's Thor, he actually looks like a psychopath who you never want to face. And this is what makes him greater than Marvel's Thor.
mythologically accurate thor rather than that mcu joke
Ohhh i like this version Thor he is so cool that move MCU
Does the crescendo/heavy bit play at all in either boss fight
You may not realise it but Bear McCreary is replacing John Williams faster
As much as I love Bear let’s not go there just yet
Thor is such a tragic character. Underappreciated and abused by his own father, essentially believed to be only a weapon, lost his two sons, turned to alcoholism, could barely take care of what was left of his family and once he was about to go down the path that Kratos went down through to redeem himself, his chance gets taken away by Odin
This isn’t the Thor we got in the movies but this… this is the Thor we deserve
The difference between passion (Ragnarok) and a paycheck(rings of power(
One of the battle of Kratos whit Odin's captain fiske plissssss
if they put Marvel's version of Thor in this universe, he would become the Hawkeye of his universe.
"Oh oh, no...I say when we're done!"
I'm sure I heard something similar in gw2.
2:01 reminds me to Richard Wagner
