the funny thing is the chosen undead and the bearer of curse are also apart of the soul of cinder so basically you're fighting the chosen undead, the bearer of curse, and Gwyn, Lord of Cinder.
Damn I can practically hear Gwyn's broken, melancholic and depressed tone. To me it's as if he already knows that he's lost and has accepted that truth yet he refuses for his flame to fade with a whimper.
Two Lords walk the ash ridden wastes that was once a Kiln. One Hollowed, the other of Sunlight. The flowers flowing from the Ash bend to each. The Ash seeketh Ember, and the Hollow looks to the Sun. With each stepping forward, a dance of Fire and Dark unfurl. Each foot fall, a note in the coda of the Age. With each clash of blades and magic, a measure is completed. Shadows and Phantoms sway with each Lord, hugging them. One is an old Knight, the Sun emblazoned on his chest. Two are Knights, clad in onion like armor, each jollily cheering their respective Lord. The song ends, one Lord remains, the Fire burns on within it.
The First Flame quickly fades. Darkness will shortly settle. But one day, tiny flames will dance across the darkness. Like embers, linked by Lords past.
Ikr? The piano sounds amazing in this arrangement! I don't know why but the piano sounds like it's playing at the back and I have a keyboard behind me. Got paranoid for awhile (bcos no one was home except me)
Ornstein And Smough Theme : CHECK Ludwig,The Holy Blade Theme : CHECK Cleric Beast Theme : CHECK Abyss Watchers Theme : CHECK Main Menu Theme : CHECK Soul of Cinder Theme : CHECK Goddamn it Richard,make a Soulsborne cover album so we can all happily spend all our money on it! P.S. FUCKING GG,THIS COVER!
I really love how you get this fighting theme first and later on (2:45) that turnaround to a very sad melody, when you realize that the first Lord of Cinder has Gwyns Moveset (which you fought in DS1). You really get to feel the sad lore Dark Souls has, you get to know that this is the final end. I lost the first time fighting the First Lord of Cinder because I started crying. It's like constantly having flashbacks through the whole series. Thank you for this wonderful cover. I just realized, that the second half of this song is Gwyns theme... this is so incredible.
Just saw this under suggested videos... I'm in tears because of the suspense of HOPE that your channel has a lot more of these. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have more.
This was pretty goddamn awesome :D I would love to see your take on Lorian, Elder Prince/ Lorian Younger Prince. It's one of the of the most amazing boss themes in Dark Souls (in my opinion anyways). The other one I have always been curious to see you do since I find it possibly even more amazing (even though it isn't Souls... technically) is Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower from the Bloodborne DLC. You did Ludwig amazingly, I would love to see you tackle her theme as well. These are my bucket "I hope Rich does these songs" list.
So glad you had the thought to do this my man. I just barely got into DS3 and I've been listening to the soundtrack. This metal version that you made hit all the right chords for me
But the Soul of Cinder is the main character from the first Dark Souls game! That main character took over the flame, and the main character from Dark Souls 3 has to end that flame!
I can't love this enough...so fucking awesome in so many ways! Metal will forever be the natural way to revise the Soulsborne music, with its blast beats, solos and absolutely brutal soundscape. Fantastic job!
That sound stage or whatever you wanna call it was amazing. It felt etherial during the Gwyn part. Amazing. Btw, I can also recommend Andrew Malefice's Dark Souls covers.
"Try parrying"
Seriously, screw the guy that left that little tip before this fight.
Me: *Tries to Parry.*
SoC: Ka-Me-Ha-Me-Haaaaa!
hehe i see you liked it
Pra que agredir mano? Não tem nescidade disso
"Try partying"
You know what I say?
Try actually learning how to dodge and wreck his ass
Even Andre can't forge metal like this.
zander cage that just made my day xD
absolutely brilliant, i laughed my self off from this one comment lmao
zander cage that made my day thx bro
Unless he smiths at hihg speeds
100/10 im serious
Player: I thought you were dead!
Gwyn: My death was extremely exaggerated
As long as the fire burns...I live...

You?

Unkindled: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?
Gwyn: Once more. Only once more.
Damn I can practically hear Gwyn's broken, melancholic and depressed tone. To me it's as if he already knows that he's lost and has accepted that truth yet he refuses for his flame to fade with a whimper.
@@Nicknock-rw4go I mean he has gone completely hollow, he doesn't know anything, anymore.
This made me feel bad for the lord..

That truly reminds me of the good ol' days of Dark Souls I Praise This
Tears ahead
Joe Kewl visions of an amazing cover ahead
Try finger but hole
Try holding with both hands.
danger ahead try finger in short rear.
*Appraises Messege*
2:16 *parrying intensifies*
Typical Weeaboo only to realize parrying won't save your ass any more
Diabolic Aries Can he even be parried? I tried with the demon's fists and caestus and instead got fucked
JustPure1 lol fuck no. he'll make you his bitch trying to parry him lol
Nope, but he can parry you.
he can parry you straight to hell
No matter how many years have passed, I still find it ridiculous that three piano notes make me this emotional, that's the true magic in this game.
Plin plin plon

Or will they?

@@BaseplateCamper Nameless, accursed Undead, unfit even to be cinder. And so it is that ash seeketh embers.
@@GrahamChapman lmao
This is really cool. Love the little bits of piano.
Ikr? The piano sounds amazing in this arrangement! I don't know why but the piano sounds like it's playing at the back and I have a keyboard behind me. Got paranoid for awhile (bcos no one was home except me)
Subtle reference to the source song, and the original game. Absolutely chilling.
insaneintherainmusic What are you doing here? Everyone knows Jazz and metal can't be liked at the same time
Evolved Dinosaur that's such a false statement lol
Zahin Tan These piano sounds are actually part of the first games last boss Gwyn’s theme. He is the creator of the fire.
Ornstein And Smough Theme : CHECK
Ludwig,The Holy Blade Theme : CHECK
Cleric Beast Theme : CHECK
Abyss Watchers Theme : CHECK
Main Menu Theme : CHECK
Soul of Cinder Theme : CHECK
Goddamn it Richard,make a Soulsborne cover album so we can all happily spend all our money on it!
P.S.
FUCKING GG,THIS COVER!
heh, keep an eye out - I'm remastering all my old soulsborne shit and putting it up for sale real damn soon
And suddenly my wallet feels lighter than usual.
Just shutup and take my money
Randy Cundiff Alex Roe did a reorchestra of it if you're interested.
10/10 would buy
The “plin plin plon” hitted me
Hits like a sledgehammer
...THIS TRACK IS THE FIRST FLAME.....
Wild Card 🔥🔥🔥
and i will link it to all my friends right now
2:45 I literally cried because it's just so awesome... I haven't heard anything so good in so long.
I was a bit worried about Gwyn'e segment, but I think it's safe to say that your REALLY nailed it. Can't wait for your other works!

02:45 Tears all over the face, but only fire in the heart.
This boss fight is honestly the main reason I want to replay Dark Souls 3.
That piano fade in though, just amazing. Actually managed to recapture the feeling from my first time fighting SoC and hearing that medley fade in.
mmm blast beats. Amazing riffage on this one, and taking it to that clean part was dope. \m/
Dat 2nd half was so good. First half too but I just have a special place for Gwynn's theme.
got here, and no comments saying "first". This indeed is a glorious day.
first
Regretted XDDDDDDDDDDD GOT EEEEEEM HAHAHAHAGAHAGSG
Dead Memes you brought this upon yourself
This is my favorite thing you've ever done.
Rich, that was *powerful*
Damn Rich, was not expecting the second half to go all post rock like! That was fucking incredible!
4:39 i hear a shimmer
Man, the section at 2:45 still gives me goosebumps when I listen!
I was looking for a flame war here, but all I could find were cinders :(
Dr Swellman Your pun is gloriously terrible, I have never encountered a pun that made me groan as loud as I did. You sir, have made my day.
*ba-dum tssk*
Part of me hates you for this, the other part is in love with you.
The final boss to end all final bosses...
Best boss fight in the game in my oppinion just because of the atmosphere and lore
Aidan Lawson ikr
Gael is the best
Best ending in any game I've played, honestly, and that's from 23 years and counting. What a fitting finale.
Hehehe.... No that's Gael, or midir if you want to get technical
That is... AWESOME! Can we get the theme of Sif the Great Grey Wolf from Dark Souls 1 too?
Just saw this under suggested videos... I'm in tears because of the suspense of HOPE that your channel has a lot more of these. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE have more.
I can almost never imagine most dark souls ost in metal, but you manage to make it work well everytime. Good stuff!
That wall of sound @2:45 is simply breathtaking! Also interesting change of pace compared to your latest Splatoon cover.
That D&D Shirt tho'! MMM HMM, good shit.
Blast beats with the piano playing is giving me some Make Them Suffer vibes. Sick cover, man.
Ayy god bless you, I was looking for this comment
Sounds cool, what're some good songs by them?
RichaadEB, Lord of Cinder.
Truly a noble soul to link the fire.
Saw this and screamed rainbows.
My $250 headset was worth it for literally just this.
Always fun hearing DS covers from you :D
Soulsborne EP ;_;
Fuck, that was so good
Jake Stephen Hell yeah! ; _ ;
One of my favourite track of the game, and you arranged it perfectly! Great job!
The piano gets me every time. So beautiful! :D
I came for the Undertale remixes back then.
And I stayed for them, too.
As well as all the other awesome tracks you make.
This is beast as always
Shana same here!
undertale sucks
This was absolutely amazing, really glad you kept the piano bit in there as well.
Coming back to this again and again. I always have to lie down and take a breather afterwards. Soulsborne brings out your absolute best, Rich.
It's so awesome to see a DS3 cover that isn't the Abyss Watchers, let alone a good cover. Thanks for putting this together~
Great job!, one of my favorites themes in the series.
I love how sad, but powerful this song is
I've been waiting for this for so long. Thank you for the sick cover
I goddamn love the piano on this soundtrack
This was pretty goddamn awesome :D I would love to see your take on Lorian, Elder Prince/ Lorian Younger Prince. It's one of the of the most amazing boss themes in Dark Souls (in my opinion anyways).

MORE DARK SOULS III COVERS PLS!
What an amazing sound track.
What a glorious cover!
Praise RichaadEB!
This is too good, tears even came out of my ears. Keep it up man ;-; *claps*
My favorite boss from the whole franchise; His theme, design, moveset, everything about this boss just screams ultimate boss.
Oh shit. Your mix is HUGE. Playing is great as always, too. Great great job.
Soon the Flames will fade, and only Metal will remain.
This week, on "Songs with drums that few people are able to reproduce", RichaadEB!
Really enjoy your Dark Souls covers, so intense and good!
The drums on the blasty part sound absolutely ridiculous...in a good way. Great work!
Wild that I’m just finding this. Been pretty nostalgic over DS3 lately, gonna have to go through it all over again soon…
RichaaEB is the "Dark Souls" of metal covers
This is the right song to link the fire, fucking awesome bro
Hearing this version fills me with so much nostalgia
So glad you had the thought to do this my man. I just barely got into DS3 and I've been listening to the soundtrack. This metal version that you made hit all the right chords for me
I'm not crying ;-;
Got Goosebumps, so good
2:18
When piano starts i tried to parry but he parried me :'v
But the Soul of Cinder is the main character from the first Dark Souls game! That main character took over the flame, and the main character from Dark Souls 3 has to end that flame!
Actually the soul of cinder is just all the Lord's of cinders combined into one being.
Makes me cry as like the original OST, brilliant and amazing bro
holy shit the production on this song is insane and your tone is on another level it's perfect
Loved your use of the e-bow with the sort of warbled part
I can't believe this is the first time i hear this. The cover is just AMAZING!
I loved every single second of it, keep up the good work bro!
Wow, that was intense. Really Impressive!
god the rift in this is beautiful, well done
Amazing job as always dude, good job another video to favourites, greetings from Chile
I actually got shivers dude. Well done.
Ever consider teaming up with 331Erock for a song or two?
he had a little part in my gerudo valley cover recently
Which that video was awesome as fuck
You are absolutely incredible man. All of your Dark Souls is perfect!
A series that will not be forgotten.
2:45 Holy shit I feel like I’m fuckin dying
Motoi Sakuraba's music in metal form is like an eargasm!!
This is a masterpiece. Reminds me of Wintersun!!
You've done a number of covers for the Souls games now and I gotta ask. Out of all of them Souls/Borne games, which is your fav?
that's a really good question lol
dang, no answer :'c
lmao
What his answer means is: he loves all of them pretty much equally. :v
RichaadEB 1 year later I need to know.
Simply beautiful... I don't have all the words to describe how good this is.
The feeling you put into this cover is absolutely moving. I subbed on the first day. Didn't even have to buy me dinner.
this was so moving and powerful to me. thank you. it was perfect. you did a wonderful job.
Gwyn would be proud.
So, will you cover more from DS1? I still didn't get a chance to play 3
I can't love this enough...so fucking awesome in so many ways!
Metal will forever be the natural way to revise the Soulsborne music, with its blast beats, solos and absolutely brutal soundscape. Fantastic job!
This cover deserves more love! fucking masterpiece
Holy shit f*cking hype!
Great work dude
Bro I really did tear up the first time I hit phase two of that fight. The music kicks in and all the tears.
1:12 - dundundundundundundundun
This...this is fantastic. You are a marvel to the music community!
That sound stage or whatever you wanna call it was amazing. It felt etherial during the Gwyn part. Amazing.
Btw, I can also recommend Andrew Malefice's Dark Souls covers.
Absolutley beautiful
This made me so hyped I now want to finish DS3 once more. Great job!
This is seriously the best video game cover I've ever heard.
You fucking nailed phase 2. The pinnacle of badassery and epicness
You just made my day
digging the shirt man. Awesome cover!
A cover so nice my brain melted twice.
