@@Jukantos THE GOLDEN AAAAAAAAAAAAGE
@@lamamadelamamadelamamama WILL RETURN AGAIN!
Official name is “Stultifera Cantus” or “Song of Fools”.
The song is called that because of the ultimate irony that the “Golden Age” will NEVER return to Iberia ever again.
The Profound Silence* and the ensuing Manhunt against the ægir immigrants has permanently crippled Iberia’s chances of survival, much less it’s prosperity.
*The Profound Silence is a cataclysmic event caused by the rousing of a Firstborn, basically a Lovecraftian Horror.
Oh,the Golden Age will return.
Since we know the future where the Seaborns take over is an alternate one,the path that Doc Kal is pushing for will allow AEgir itself to eventually overcome their stubborness against surface dwellers,whilst Irene has shown that the Inquisition is actually changing to face the actual threats instead of those who can bring the threat down faster.
They're past the actual brutal stage,so it's only a matter of time for Iberia to rebuild itself,might be a few decades,but it is coming.
And that would be in line with the Terra wide effort that Kal is pursuing in order to combat not just the Seaborns,but the Northern Demons,the Yanese demons,the sky ones and the underground ones.
Their golden age was a lie and cheat to begin with
They gave them technology to prepare for what to come and they just used that for their empire expansion, gaining wealth and power. just to lose it because they didn't believe him.
@@NareshSinghOctagon nah. First of all, is3 is simulation run by Mizuki on seaborn artifact, not like certain future. Second, 4th ending still implies the fact that new profound silence will happen first ant it still will push people to the Last City b4 Mizuki would teke over controll. While humanity would survive, no country on Terra would survive
@@SotonyaAcckaya ,even better,it's a simulation,meaning it is very unlikely to happen since they already know it's potential,meaning they can stop it.
It also means that it too is a part of Doc Kals' effort,which means that Iberia gaining back its' Golden Age is even more likely.
One of the most adrenaline inducing boss themes ive ever heard in my life and all i can say is.... THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!!!!!
Praise the fish
Become one with the sea.
KILL THE OCEAN!!!!
@@Mikazuki-senpai Do not praise the fish, but burn the fish. For the Iberian Inquisition, with blessing of the Holy See, demands it.
I rather says "Kill the Ocean!"
AND THE STORM WE MUST ENDURE, MY FRIEND
I dropped arknights just barely past the tutorial, sometime early last year - this song got me back into it just in time to catch the event on global and it's been taking up all the real estate in my brain ever since
This is the sequel to undertides, put simply, these events are about eldritch horrors that emerge from the sea.
I think this is one of the songs that needs a little bit of lore background.
The quick version is that there was a prosperous country that got screwed and locked away from the sea for a century or so, the stultifera navis/ship of fools is this grand titanic like wonder they bulit and it has a sort of mythical place and this event is about it being found again.
The Stultafera Navis was the crown jewel of Iberias fleet, built with the help of technology brought to land by a researcher from the sea people of neighbouring underwater kingsom Aegir, Origin of the Abyssal Hunters.
When the Abyssal hunters struck one of the sea gods of the ever expanding seaborne mass of monsters, they overran both kingdoms in an absolute flood of horrors. The Stultafera Navis got lost at sea and the sailors even started eating the Seaborne monsters, slowly starving to death amd dying to boarding attacks.
The event is one of the best in depth in the game and my god the bossfight that plays to this... the boss literally respawns, evolves and adapts based on how you deal with other key enemies. Nutty nutty stuff.
SN has the most powerful lobby theme too imho, it's errie, adventurous and kinda scary but beautiful all at the same time. This theme is legendary too, makes me frrl to go on a pirate adventure in stormy seas with a fully loaded musket or four lel
This song's name is actually Stultifer Cantus (Song of Fools). There's a lot of incorrect names out there sadly
Have you done "El brillo solitario" and "Rapier"? they are based also on Iberia (Spain) and it would be very cool to see you react to them!
This song felt so epic, hopeful, yet sad at the same time.
FINALLY my absolute favorite. Even my non- gacha fiance got HOOKED on this song. We meme on it all the time 😂
How many songs unironically use a SONAR PING as an instrument?
I know one song that uses a jet engine as an instrument...
I think you might like "Scinfaxi" from Ace Combat 5.
I love the feel of the idealistic chant vs the frantic and sinister cacophony. This is my favorite arknights song. It was towards the end of me being a "new player". It took hours to beat the boss without any meta operators and then I manually beat him twice more because I loved the music so much.
My empty bottle of Cpt. Morrgan dark rum started singing as soon as this song blasts
LET'S
FUCKING
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Would love to see you react on some of Girls' Frontline's OSTs too.
Would recommend:
- Connexion
- Scarlet
- Mythoclast
- Isomer - Outside the Border
- Autonome
Would love to see you check out more of the Boss themes from the actual in-game tracks! Considering the kind of gamestyle Arknights' gameplay is, having this amazing tracks to stages and such really helps excite players and set a good mood to things.
There so many context, story and gameplay wise that make this song great, I'll give you the gameplay wise.
You said you probably wont play AK but, imagine this,
This boss stage (and event) is one of the hardest AK has ever give. You're rushed by swarm of many types of annoying enemies, even the weakest one is must be taken consideration. The boss has 4 stage/lives, and slightest mistake will cost your life.
And trough many waves, through different stage of the boss, through many tries and depression, while listening this song on loop, somehow make the toture a little bit more exciting
Sure was punishing but hardest enemies are not even the boss
@@otdatheu4038 depends on your owned operators but I was doing globalknight challenge so yeah
This was the song that first got me hooked on Arknights music. It's not my favorite one out there, but it's so unique to have a SEA SHANTY BOSS THEME that I couldn't help but get interested in the game's music from there
EDIT: Btw, some people have already mentioned this, but the song's actual name is Stultifer Cantus (Song of Fools)
Yes, there's a meter change a third of the way through, from 4/4 to 3/4, and then back to 4 as the vocals come back in
Good I'm not crazy. I'm terrible at meter changes in general so i didn't want to say something confidently and end up looking like more of an idiot than i do already 😂
As a wise parody once said: "I can only count to 4"
Did you do Bluish Light yet? If not I highly recommend it especially since it's part of the same event 😊
Yesssss, now under tides theme next.
(´∩｡• ᵕ •｡∩`) The Hive continues to feast
"Hunter's Song" about 1 minute long kind of the dessert for this one^^
mfg
Olli
GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!!
If I close my eyes while listening to this song I envision People sailing on a sea during an epic storm. Hunting moby dick maybe? XD
WE GONNA KILL THE OCEAN WITH THIS ONE BOIS.
Would still love to see your reaction to the Under Tides boss theme, also considering it's the event that preceded this one story wise.
👀 about that....
@@CatharsisYT 👀
Man still no boiling blood
Shhhhhh
He hasn't watched under tides yet, right? the best OST
Yeah...yeah i definitely haven't yet....
Ope
If you’ve heard of MarcoMeatball, he reacted to this track several months ago, so in case you’re interested I’ll stick my gigantic summary of the event and how this song so perfectly embodies it here for you to read at your leisure, should you so desire. I won’t claim it’s the best retelling, as Marco’s video had a ton of other comments also summarizing the story so I didn’t feel as big a need to be as thorough as I would’ve been otherwise, but given my history of being completely incapable of summarizing things I think I did pretty okay.
Anyway, below is my comment copied from Marco’s video.
(keep in mind I’m posting this while only having watched 1/4 of the video, just in case some of my statements end up being redundant lmfao)
This whole event happens on a very old ship belonging to the mostly-ruined nation of Iberia. She’s named Stultifera Navis, and is the last remaining ship anywhere near as large and powerful as she is.
The first bit of the event is pretty much going through hell to try and restart the last of Iberia’s lighthouses that remains in decent enough condition to have any chance of functioning. Through this undertaking we learn that this ship, Stultifera Navis, is somehow still afloat after disappearing a year or several years ago (it’s been forever since I played this event), and we then set off to investigate.
The ship is out in the middle of nowhere and has essentially been perpetually besieged by Seaborn, which are organisms with an extremely short evolutionary cycle which seek to consume and assimilate everything they come in contact with. Of the entire crew of the Stultifera Navis, only her captain and first mate remain, the latter of whom has almost completely become Seaborn yet somehow clings to the last shreds of his humanity. He and the captain have subsisted on little more than Seaborn flesh and their boundless conviction and determination to bring back Iberia’s Golden Age.
The captain refuses to accept the fate of Iberia, declaring his ship to be his own Iberia and fighting to preserve it at any cost.
I’d never thought about it this way until you mentioned how the song conveys it, but it really does a perfect job of painting this picture of the captain and first mate’s infinite determination to preserve and restore Iberia even as the similarly endless, raging tide of Seaborn eats away not just their ship but their humanity. It even goes as far as the portion of the song the lyrics occupy.
It perfectly represents the scenario the story of the event creates.
The captain of the ship Stultifera Navis stands in the midst of an incomprehensibly vast storm of Seaborn. He has watched over multiple years as they consumed his entire crew (other than the first mate thanks to his unfathomable resilience) and a considerable portion of the ship itself. Despite everything, he fights on for longer than any human should be able to, for the sake of the Iberia he imagines. That ship is kept afloat far longer than it ever should’ve been by nothing but the impossible conviction and stubbornness of two men, and as they and the ship live, so too does the Iberia of their dreams, and the utterly foolish hope that it will be restored to its Golden Age.
Yet, foolish as that hope may be, there are those parts of the song where the endless storm relents for a time. We are teased with this notion that there is still some legitimate possibility that at least a tiny bit of progress can be made toward restoration.
After watching the rest:
The way this song blends everything and puts emphasis on the overwhelming bass does feel very unique now that you mention it. That said, the scope of my knowledge is very small, but still.
As my big comment mentions, the thunderous bass parts represent an unfathomable, endless onslaught of primitive organisms that are extremely quick to adapt to their environment. All the underlying strings, vocals, and other things are the equally unfathomable, undying will and conviction of the ship and her two remaining crew, holding their own against that unrelenting storm for multiple years and suffering the loss of the rest of the ship’s crew and most of their own humanity in the process.
I like to think that the points in the song where the bass goes quiet to let the strings and what I assume is a flute represent scenarios like the event in game, wherein there is a renewed spark of hope for the ship and her crew, however short-lived it may be, as our small group boards the ship to figure out what its deal is.
The captain and first mate held out for multiple years, and people from the mainland managed to find the ship; surely, then, all hope is not truly lost. Light will find a way to break through even the thickest storm given enough time.
That’s the feeling I get from those parts of the song.
Damn I love sea shanties.
Another note, in the big comment I pasted in, “you” refers to MarcoMeatball. I couldn’t remember if I had made many references to him or things he said that would be taken out of context here, but it seems I made a few.
Hopefully I’m not being too long-winded!
KILL THE OCEAN!!!
The funny thing about this song, Is it is entirely wrong.
A major part of the event is there is going to be no new golden age.
All I'm gonna say is... THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!
Ive only one thing to say here.....THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN
This event makes me want to divorce Specter and then ask Dario's permission to marry Irene.
I have unrivalled hatred for the event this song is from.
It's called Stultifera navis, which is meant to translate to "the ship of fools", which is the name of the amazing ship in the events story (it's actually very pretty, got this lovely blend of age of sail, steam liner, and internal combustion aesthetics, 10/10).
However
When i saw the name "stultifera navis", i immediately recognised it as Spanish, and went to Google translate to see if that meant anything special or was just nonsense. And translate did not say "ship of fools". Translate said "stupid ship", which is a horrible thing to say about any ship and i hate the event specifically for that reason.
This is a certifed stultifera comment
You see, there's an old german satirical allegory by Sebastian Brant from 1494 called "Das Narrenschiff", originally published as "Daß Narrenschyff ad Narragoniam". It was hugely influential and becamean immediate hit. Three years later, in 1497, Brants pupil Jakob Locher translated the book into latin with the name "Stultifera Navis".
Translate is not wrong, but it kinda lacks the intricacies that languages can have.
