[Spoilers] For those wondering why Jewel Ghoul represents Lust, here it is for ya Lust, by definition, is not actually tied directly to sexual desires. Instead, it is tied to an intense desire for something. It can be anything, but it's mostly tied to what was said earlier. And some the symbolism CAN be seen in the battle The women in the back could represent the meaning people mostly associate lust with, along with the fact that Jewel Ghoul himself is always drooling. The large emphasis on cigars and cigarettes could also represent lust due to how addictive it can be. And, as all addictions go, not having a cigar or cigarette for long can lead to you having a strong desire. One that'll eventually lead you to smoking another, even if you're trying to stop. However, that's where the normal meaning's influence ends. This isn't where it ends though. If we look at the description for Jewel Ghoul's achievement, we can draw some more comparisons. It reads "Lust is a distraction most dangerous" and this opens up a lot of reasons for the fight. Especially the reasoning for the theme of the fight: Jewels. The women in the back, associated with the normal meaning of lust, are jewels. The bullet from Jewel Ghoul's gun is a jewel. Almost everything, even the battlefield and the boss, is made of jewels. Hell, the level before has Jewel platforms you have to use to progress. For those not in the know: Jewels are usually associated with wealth, another thing one can have a longing desire for, but they're mostly just there for show and decoration. They're not that useful outside of that. Hence, why this boss in particular has such an emphasis on it. Jewels are essentially just distractions when boiled down like this, perfect for the main theme of the boss. To add onto the theme of distraction, most of the attacks are supposed to seem intimating. Like him pulling out a huge gun or charging up a strong punch. However, the way you actually dodge them is quite easy if you can get past the looks. And, if you don't know the attacks or are new, then this boss can really mess you up. I won't get into the 2nd phase, but I think most of what I said before can be applied there as well with almost everything being made of jewels (even Jewel Ghoul's lungs) and such. There is one more detail I want to point out: The heart and lungs seem to be in bit of a bad shape (at least to me) which might imply the damage the cigars and cigarettes are doing to Jewel Ghoul. Lust is a distraction most dangerous, after all.
I came to a pretty similar conclusion to you after I beat the fight and saw the second phase, spare the distraction part which after reading makes a load of sense, would like to see you analyze the rest and see what you think about them cause this was a pretty fun read!
More like Pinstripe Potoroo to me because Jewel Ghoul has a strong snazzy vibe in his character and boss background... and both have a fcking glock in their rari
Everyone's saying Crash Bandicoot, but this also really reminds me of Big Top Bop from Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. That song is a certified banger, and so is this one!
I thought from the teaser for Jewel Ghoul this would be slow but intimidating jazz but then the guitar was added out of nowhere and the amethyst I have pulled out a gun and robbed me point blank. Thank you Summit "ANTONBLAST" Sphere!
OMG FINALLY!! I love how the whole OST has their inspiration from the Crash Bandicoot games (well not to mention that Tony being the composer is a Crash Bandicoot fan) but this one yells hard Dingodile vibes
To me that title goes to Slowroast Sewers, but this is definitely a contender. If this boss theme goes this hard, I can't wait to hear the eventual Satan final boss theme.
I wrote lyrics for the song starting from 0:21: Take a swig of this, feel the power of my fist punch you into the wall (We love you Ghoulie) One bullet coming up bouncin round like an eightball (Uh, you got us drooling) With this cig I’ll smoke you out, leave you in the dust like a fly (The big gem’s ruling) Get the minecart fired up and blast off, dropping crystals so you soon die
I said this to the friend who showed me this - This sounds like an amazing extended remix of Big Top Bop from Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze. It's incredible. I refuse to believe Big Top Bop wasn't an inspiration for this. It's stellar.
Okay I like how the music kinda reminds of like a first phase final boss music yet it’s the first boss and also his attacks and size are supposed to be intimidating yet they are pretty easy to dodge showing that Jewel ghoul is trying to be intimidating yet is a Jewel only meant for decoration
These songs go so f#$%ing HARD! I can feel a touch of Crash Bandicoot-style with these tracks, which makes them slap even harder. Props to Tony Grayson for his work. That being said, I'm waiting for a flood of cover tracks for the OST; especially if we can get GaMetal, RichaadEB, and 8-BitRyan to collab on one of them.
Man… I’ve been waiting to listen to the entirety of this since the first teaser for Jewel Ghoul, and it’s even better than I imagined. That guitar riff a 1:12 makes my soul A S C E N D ! Thank you Summitsphere.

if someone made me listen to this entire song without knowing the actual name with the only context being "its from antonblast" i would've probably thought this was the final boss theme cuz of that one part
@@potatolina3 They may be releasing the music according to the order the fights take place, so this seems to be a boss for much later in the game which could fit the songs intensity. But now I’m wondering what the satan’s boss theme could even be?
@@potatolina3 I’m surprised you even remembered this comment and remembered to reply to me. Good to know, I’m still waiting for the switch release to play it.
IM SO HAPPY BRO, I cannot tell you I saw this I SAW I saw this on my feed and I actually BLASTED I’m so happy I could cry. THIS SONG IS SO GOOD OMGGGGG
THIS is the one I was waiting for and it does NOT disappoint. I have a feeling from this that Jewel Ghoul will be one of the last bosses Edit: Aaaaaaand he's the 2nd friggin' boss
I can’t stress enough that this game MIGHT have the best soundtrack in video game history, literally every song hits, there’s no missing with this game.
Don't be a fool... beware the ghoul.
THIS THEME IS A GEM 💎
AND IT NEEDS TO BE BLASTED 💥💥💥
This ost made me blast all over the place it was that good
instructions unclear i am now one of jewel ghoul's ladies in the bg
GEM ALERT
Dear Anton,
Thank you.

I kinda got that vibe from the environment. Specifically the scantily dressed Jewel Girls (that's what I'm calling them) dancing in the background.
@@wobblewokgaming655 Nice!
Also hearts are the main representation of pasion, love and lust and you end up fighting and breaking his literal heart.
Jewel Ghoul also seems to be dressed like a pimp, wich could add more symbolism
Holy crap the guitar and sax in this song go harder than the shots at Brulo’s bar…
You mean drinks right? 😧
@@Goofyinserted jewel ghoul has a gun
I only wish there was more sax

@@fastbandit1853The whole second phase part where you go into the Jewel Ghoul with his shrivelled up lungs
That’s actually his heart
@@maxanderson8704 his lungs are in the background
And you are riding on all the cigarettes that he smokes to survive
I can’t believe they crystallized Daffy Duck.
Or they crystalized Tom
They crystallised and fused both of them together
Its giving crystallized mel blanch
"I saw that in a toothpaste ad once"
They bejewelled him
As a reminder. THIS IS THE THEME FOR THE FIRST MAJOR BOSS. AND TONY WENT HARD ON THE SOMG LIKE JESUS CHRIST CALM DOWN. THIS IS JUST TOO GOOD.
Literally the Big Top Bop incident of the Wii U era… 🥶
I mean, when the boss is this good, you kind of have to, don't you?
You know what they say, "Where there's smoke...
...They pinch back."
Fucking iconic
WEEGEE !
Ya bring a light?
MAMA?? MAMALUIGI???
@ gee, it sure is boring around here…
Freako Dragon's theme gave off Ripper Roo vibes
This one gives off Dingodile vibes

@@TripleHakim2 Maybe it's the soundfont samples used here.
They're the same instruments from Dingodile's battle.

Everyone's saying Crash Bandicoot, but this also really reminds me of Big Top Bop from Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze.
That song is a certified banger, and so is this one!
Wrong theme. You're thinking Freako Dragon
Thought i was the only one who thought Big Top Bop

This whole soundtrack is SO resemblance to Crash Bandicoot and I'm shedding a tear because of it!!
IM IN LOVE WITH THIS OST!!
Literally, Anton is Wario & Crash Bandicoot's love child
I thought from the teaser for Jewel Ghoul this would be slow but intimidating jazz but then the guitar was added out of nowhere and the amethyst I have pulled out a gun and robbed me point blank. Thank you Summit "ANTONBLAST" Sphere!
I think we should make it tradition that every Wario Land inspired game from this point should reference the Daffy Zoot pose.
i'll find a way to reference it in my wariolike... whenever i figure out how to gamedev
I'm gonna do it. No questions asked
the pane and heartache in the title is a reference to Brulo's divorce
So that’s why he’s so lethargic all the time!
You mean anton and peppinos divorce

OOOOGGGHHH!!!! MY BALLS HAVE BEEN BLASTED
The Crash Bandicoot inspiration is loud and proud in this one
OMG FINALLY!! I love how the whole OST has their inspiration from the Crash Bandicoot games (well not to mention that Tony being the composer is a Crash Bandicoot fan) but this one yells hard Dingodile vibes
I'm hope tony join to future crash title
his music is perfect

@@Gaia_BentosZX5 That explains how he refuses death after Anton literally kills his heart
People mentioned Crash Bandicoot, but I got heavy Shadow 05 vibes at the beginning.
Great stuff man.
If there was a Rouge boss fight, this would totally be her theme.
Jewel Ghoul is a pretty, uh, formidable opponent….
He'll swing punches at ya
he'll SHOOT ya
@@ragequit4777 he'll really SMOKE YA if you're not careful.
Once you damage enough...i dunno he went down,he won't.
I dunno Jewel Ghoul is a pretty tricky guy!
@@replicaofandysso what you gotta do is hammer vault into his face!
This song made me reflect on the songs I listen to
Because this song told me crystal clear that it’s the ultimate banger
This is BY FAR the best track you've revealed. Even better than the bossbusters theme, this is absolute heat
To me that title goes to Slowroast Sewers, but this is definitely a contender. If this boss theme goes this hard, I can't wait to hear the eventual Satan final boss theme.
My favorite theme is currently fluctuating, lol. This, Bossbusters, and Freako Dragon's themes are all equally great!
It's like an extremely lustful version of Dingodile's theme
That explains why Jewel Ghoul is always drooling
@@BloxxerBoi_m134 He literally runs a brothel if the dancers in the arena background are anything to go by.
this might just be the best summary I've ever heard
@@BloxxerBoi_m134 I mean the bosses are personifications of the 7 deadly sins and Jewel ghoul is meant to be lust, so yeah of course it is
@@Nerx3239 wait wht rlly? But there are 8 total of bosses in the game
Bro, listening to this while playing Darkstalkers is God tier
DARKSTALKERS MENTIONED!!!!
I wrote lyrics for the song starting from 0:21:
Take a swig of this, feel the power of my fist punch you into the wall
(We love you Ghoulie)
One bullet coming up bouncin round like an eightball
(Uh, you got us drooling)
With this cig I’ll smoke you out, leave you in the dust like a fly

It's like someone mixed Sonic Adventure, Crash Bandicoot, and a shot of SMT into one track.
These songs go so f#$%ing HARD! I can feel a touch of Crash Bandicoot-style with these tracks, which makes them slap even harder. Props to Tony Grayson for his work.
That being said, I'm waiting for a flood of cover tracks for the OST; especially if we can get GaMetal, RichaadEB, and 8-BitRyan to collab on one of them.
We went to summisphere for trick or treating and the gave us the best stuff
Man…
I’ve been waiting to listen to the entirety of this since the first teaser for Jewel Ghoul, and it’s even better than I imagined.
That guitar riff a 1:12 makes my soul
A S C E N D !
Thank you Summitsphere.
Bold of Summitsphere to include a boss that represents 85% of their playerbase
Definitely my favorite of the ost, it is ABSURD how hard this goes, especially for being the _first_ major boss theme
The most badass jewel you will ever see. He dun slam you. He dun shoot. 🔫💎
He even dun SMOKE YOU if you not careful
One of the main things I’m excited for from Antonblast is the soundtrack. Literally every single song that’s been released so far has been a banger.
"He walking like jerry with tom sweater" - Tony "Bandicoot" Grayson
0:40 - 🎵🎺 C'mon, shake your body baby do the conga. I know you can't control yourself any longer. C'mon, shake your body baby do the conga. I know you can't control yourself any longer. 🎶🎺
This does actually remind me a lot about Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze with this sick theme for the first boss
this song was already amazing on its own but in context of the fight it REALLY gets you pumped
The Jewel Ghoul fight blew me away! I adore the jazzy organ and phenomenal guitar solos! God, I love this game!
I take back what he said about being lazy and waiting for the release date like all of us or whatever on the last video posted an hour ago, this sounds good
I have a favorite antonblast theme now.
IT’S SO BLASTING PEAK IT’S BETTER THAN I COULD EVER IMAGINE I’M SO EXCITED FOR DECEMBER 3RD
WE FINALLY GOT THE SONG
JEWEL OF A TUNE THIS IS
I love the part were the bassist goes crazy and starts playing every known note, making this song feel like a final boss theme. 1:12
Sudden influx of Antonblast uploads? I’ll take it!
Just fought this guy recently. What an incredible fight with an equally amazing theme! Loving Antonblast so far!
Everytime they drop new ost I'M HYPED FOR THE GAME EVEN MORE.
THE JEWEL GHOUL IS REAAALLL‼️‼️‼️
First boss of the game and its already probably the best boss of any new game I’ve played this year.
LADIES AND GENTS, WE ARE FINALLY BLESSED (AND BLASTED) WITH JEWEL GHOUL'S THEME AFTER WAITING FOR SO LONG!!
if someone made me listen to this entire song without knowing the actual name with the only context being "its from antonblast"

the song where the boss smokes a cigar and puffs out on the beat of the song
YES! I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG. I'm so happy they released this I remember watching the first jewel ghoul teaser on repeat just to hear the song.🎉
Ok... this might be my favorite boss theme in the game, this is just phenomenal!
I AM COMINGGG!!!!
amazing soundtrack btw I love every soundtrack from this game I just waiting for this game
Oh im SO ready for this game to release holy SHIT
ANOTHER FUCKING BANGER TO ADD TO THE PLAYLIST
This song not just fire... it's a whole BLAST!

IT TOOK 6 FUCKING MONTHS BUT IT WAS WORTH EVERY SECOND OF WAITING
I really hope this will be on spotify one day.
Peak track

Technically he was revealed first
WE FINALLY HAVE IT
ive been waiting for this one... 💎
Happy Ant on Ween!
THIS is the one I was waiting for and it does NOT disappoint. I have a feeling from this that Jewel Ghoul will be one of the last bosses
Edit: Aaaaaaand he's the 2nd friggin' boss
The brass sounds so... ugly... I LOVE IT!
It was taking a while to release this song here, but it's finally here, thanks!
If composing a great soundtrack was a job for Tony he would ... wait it is already his job
How is this game's soundtrack so good?!?! There hasn't been a single song that even got CLOSE to "meh" yet!!!
I can’t stress enough that this game MIGHT have the best soundtrack in video game history, literally every song hits, there’s no missing with this game.
"Pane and Heartache" sounds badass in a melancholic way for some reason
goddamn I was nodding my head during the entire guitar section
Not going to lie this really heats up really well!👌🔥
Antonblast has bosses but they are not what you would expect. Jewel Ghoul is a pretty formidable opponent.
This boss fight is probably my favorite boss fight in any game I’m not kidding
That guitar is going crazy
this song makes me ascend
This could possibly be my new favorite
Oh fuck! This song's like something Metallica and Nubya Garcia, a jazz artist, would cook up when they're doing a collab for your game.
