Here's a list of Symptoms or CWD-related things
0:26 - 0:30
"Inside an Entity, It Hibernates"
CWD like most Prion diseases has an incubation period of a year or more, with Deer, elk, moose, or Reindeer not showing signs of CWD for many years
0:37 - 0:43
"Coincidentally I've been debating if I'm imagining the tremors and the aches"
one of the Symptoms for animals infected by CWD is tremors occurring in the head and aching pain.
0:44 - 0:49
"Saliva spilling out my mouth and yet my throat is still in drought"
CWD causes infected animals to drool a lot as well as causing an intense and severe thirst for the animal.
1:30 - 1:35
"Kill every inkling of a doubt, cause now my legs are giving out"
CWD can cause problems for infected animals causing stumbling and lack of coordination. The legs are giving out from the rotting brain and lack control over the muscles and body.
1:36 - 1:40
"If I'm contagious, then your gonna wanna GET OUT"
CWD is contiguous, CWD belongs to a family of diseases called prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs)
2:32 - 2:36
"I have lost command of Sublimation"
This may be related to CWD, but I'm not sure after it is less about what the disease does and more of what it means for the dear, Sublimation means to pass from a solid state to a gas state without passing through the liquid state, best exampling being dried ice. I can only interpret this as the infected animal going "I've lost control of how I die, I will not die of old age as I wished, but will rot and decay over this long period of time" It's not like it can close its eyes as old age finally catches up to send to whatever higher plane that may exist. But that's my interpretation.
2:51 - 2:58
"Nothing can help me to regain control, Now that the Agony has taken hold"
CWD has no cure, once any animal has caught it and they start showing symptoms they are as good as dead.
3:03 - 3:07
"Burn down the danger zone, set it alight"
Fire has actually been shown to destroy any Prions that attached themselves to the environment, so controlled burns can slow the spread of CWD.
3:08- 3:11
"I have no concerns for things like fear of fright"
infected creatures of CWD have displayed no fear of humans.
3:20 - 3:25
"Every single second I've been wasting away"
The Biggest sign of CWD in Animals like Deer, Elk, or Moose is that the animal would have extreme weight loss nicknamed "Wasting"
That is all I have noticed and documented, if you think you found a line that is also related to CWD, share the time stamp and why you think the line holds a relation to CWD.
“sublimation” in this case is using this definition: www.thesaurus.com/browse/sublimation
really good analysis!!! this is exactly what i was going for :)
@@RIProducer Thank You :)
May I also note the pun on whole/hole with “isn’t there anything to make me whole?” when the prions are literally turning asterian’s brains into holes! As well as “i can stomach it, or so I’m told” which could be in reference to CWD prions seem to be safe to consume for humans.
THIS IS SUCH A SICK ANALYSIS !!
I love this analysis so much, to add on I think think this line:
3:12-3:15
“There’s no contingency, our hands are tied.”
also refers to the fact that there’s no Cure and there’s nothing that can be done about it.
"Just promise me you'll hold me so ill live you the night"
"just promise me you'll cut me off and live though the night"
holy fuck, hearing the begging to just be held to make it though the pain, then screaming for you to get away and just burn the whole place down so no one else has to suffer like that is just like, wow
I know right
Hits way too close to home, man. Way too close to home 😭😭
It's really good lyric writing and considering the song is based on the real life disease in the title its actually pretty creepy.
Chronic Wasting Disease 🤝 Fruiting Bodies
Prions taking control by the end of the song
hi, hi, hello, as someone who studied prion diseases as a whole for about two months straight on a knowledge trip I just want you to know that this is making me giggle and twirl my hair and kick my feet like a lovesick teenager
I'm imagining you writing "Prions ♡♡♡" in a journal with a glittery pink gel pen AKAJJETHGS
@@CorvCor thats exactly what the look I was going for honestly
as someone who has studied prion diseases a bit and gained a paranoia i applaud you so much my lird
ME FR
i do that when taking notes, stop letting me have gel pens@@CorvCor
all jokes aside this song gets me so emotional,, especially the way asterian says "no i don't know what i'd do without you", it's so bittersweet and melancholic. it really does capture feeling as if your body is rotting and your spirit is leaving you, and the only thing you have left are the people by your side. what little time you have left is maybe not as miserable as it could've been......and maybe, for just a little bit, before your swift and untimely death, you feel all right
but also wanting everyone to stay away from you because u dont want others to suffer the same fate :((((((((
@@RIProducer requiring help but refusing to get it bc it might hurt the ppl u love is such a fucjing Feeling uueee 😥😥uee euee😭 eueueue 😥😥😭😭😭😥
Angst 😢
oh em gee that's so meeeeeeeee!!!!!
the angst!!!!! so true
This song seems to me to use CWD as a metaphor for how trauma can completely ravage someone's ability to be comfortable and secure in any sort of relationship. This is major projection, though, so bear with me.
It has this fearful-avoidant flavor to me -- the anxious neediness of "please hold me, please stay with me, please, I won't live through the night, I need you," along with the remorse for this neediness and the internalized backlash of "I'm horrible, I'm toxic, please leave me alone, get away from me, burn this bridge, I don't want you to be hurt by me," etc. That back-and-forth can come off as manipulative to people, but when identified, understood, and worked on, it can heal. It comes from insecurity caused by trauma making the alarm bells go off when they shouldn't.
I also just love how the song begins with fearfulness and ends in avoidance. I relate to that so hard. I give up on relationships a lot. I give up needing people. I grow numb and I start to think I'm some sort of heartless monster, but it's better than actually hurting people and coming off as manipulative when I share my true emotions and needs, which are more than the average.
I leaned harder into avoidance as an adult as a result of leaning hard into icky, codependent, toxic levels of fearfulness and abandonment anxiety as a teenager. This is the backlash. This is the "fixing" of oneself... when really, being avoidant is just as disordered and painful as being anxious about people leaving and hurting you.
I'm in a DID system, so "struggling to fit the role" and "sublimation" (basically a type of coping mechanism where you replace unwanted thoughts/feelings/behaviors with other associations to meet others' expectations, which everyone does, but this is to an extreme level) hit hard for me, too.
In summary, this song is such a raw take on healing from emotional turmoil while in a relationship. It's such a realistic take on trauma and PTSD feeling like a brain-eating disease that makes you feel out of control, like a monster, and like you're desensitized to hurt and pain, when really, you're oversensitive, insecure, and alert.
Interesting parallels!
This really resonated with me personally, though for a different reason.
I relate to this song in respect to what it's like being diagnosed with a personality disorder. The lines "malady inside my soul" and "inside an entity it hibernates. It doesn't show itself until it is too late" stand out to me especially. That's how I would describe having this type of mental illness to people who don't know/understand. At least that's my experience.
@@turquoisemaccheese7358 Honestly, fair. I can see a lot of parallels with things like borderline personality disorder especially (which I only know more about due to its behavioral confusion with DID).
I am not sure about what you personally struggle with, but know that you aren't alone. Music helps me realize that, too. :)
I felt this, as someone who’s been through some kind of trauma and had it effect my relationships significantly (i don’t put a name to it, maybe bpd i have no diagnosis ) i see this song in a new powerful way.
“Isnt there anything to make me whole?” also strikes me as something because people with trauma tend to have issues with a stable sense of self and feeling hollow inside
It also feels just so overwhelming and out of your control like a disease, and you don’t want it to continue spreading from the person who hurt you, and from you to other people you love and from them to people they love too. Its a horrifying experience and i am wishing you comfort and stability.
that hit hard, you did make me realize I was doing the back and forth thing..
I FOUND ANOTHER SYSTEM OUT IN THE WILD!! HIII!!! Sorry i know this is a serious post but I’m just happy because I’m part of a system too!!! :D
HOLY SHIT ASTERIAN? THE SKRUNKLE? THE MOON GOD? THE ABSOLUTELY COMFORTING VOICE POSSESSING VOCAL SYNTH? IN A REALLY INTROVERTED PRODUCER SONG? THAT IS SO REAL!!
I have found you
@@Yourinternetangel hello mirai.
REAL!!!! REALEST REAL TO EVER REAL
@@soggy_pickles SAGEEEE
oh R.I.P stands for "really introverted producer"? neat!
the idea of a human being suffering from chronic wasting disease is a both horrific and morbidly fascinating idea and i love how you executed the concept in the song, also THANK U FOR USING ASTERIAN HE SOUNDS SO GOOD
I mentioned this in another comment, but there *are* prion diseases (which CWD is) that humans can have, such as Mad Cow Disease and Fatal Familial Insomnia!
@@afellowcorn wow that’s terrifying!!!!! thank you for enlightening me lmao
Ik, I really want to make an animation out of this but I’m terrible at drawing and also don’t like animating lol
@@the_demon149 same but its just the "how the hell do i animate funni smoothness into a animation without my fingers dying"
(Not so) fun fact: not only there are various types of prion disease that can affect humans, *herpes is one of them.*
I never comment on videos before they actually release BUT!
Gonna give some context to the title since I love it when people reference the most interesting but horrific things in life. And plus in general some notes!!
Chronic Wasting Disease or CWD, is a prion disease that primarily affects the North American cervids (aka the deer family) and is extremely fatal! It is very much a concern within the enviromental community as it can spread animal to animal AND be undetected for months. Most side effects of CWD include; weight loss, decreased social interaction, loss of awareness, and loss of fear of humans. It also has been recorded that CWD can cause animals to salviate, drink, and eat more. But it's really hard to diagnoise it as well BECAUSE a lot of the symptoms also can coridalate to other diseases.
And there's no cure.
It's basically the closest version of an actual zombie we can get in real life ! Which I really am excited to see how this song relates to the title :]!!!
Edit: I did not think I was mostly right but this song is genuijely so sad but i love it as sad as it is. God i hope it comes to spotify soon
Oh and don't forget there are some human variants too :) (CJD)
@@thehongler wait wait wait, hold on- fuckin' W H A T ?
i had to write an essay on this! this is a lovely summary!!
The part about it remaining undetected for long periods of time is probably an allegory for the early stages of chronic illness and how patients are unable to tell whether or not their symptoms are real or a product of their minds, as many doctors insinuate
@@inkapoisonousmushroom Yep, Crutzfelt-Jakob Disease, same thing as CWD but in humans, and occurs when a protein misfolds and that misfolding causes other proteins to misfold in a cascade that eventually destroys the cell walls of nerve cells, causing the brain to slowly resemble a sponge. Incurable. Luckily the species barrier is very high, but this is also the exact same thing as Mad Cow Disease because farmers had fed cows brains of other cows, and the resulting meat of those cows with prion diseases could spread to humans. Do not eat raw meat, the prions and remain inside you for like 50 years before doing anything.
If I remember correctly, in Britain it has killed like 200 people because in the 90s they were feeding animals the brains of the same animal.
One of the most troubling facts is that it is completely inert and is not cleanable, there is one case where brain surgical tools cleaned and put away after being used on a CJD patient had still the prion on them, and the later patient died due to catching it through the tools which were cleaned to surgical standards. Nowadays they dispose of the tools afterwards.
Warning! Super nerdy music theory analysis:
Tempo:
00:07 - 02:05 = 100BPM
02:05 - 02:14 = Decreasing
02:14 - 03:20 = 100BPM
03:20 - 03:31 = Decreasing
Metric
00:07 - 00:09 = 3/4
00:09 - 00:26 = 7/4
00:26 - 00:31 = 4/4
00:31 - 00:39 = 7/4
00:39 - 00:43 = 4/4
00:43 - 00:50 = 5/4
00:50 - 00:54 = 4/4
00:54 - 01:11 = 7/4
01:11 - 01:16 = 4/4
01:16 - 01:29 = 7/4
01:29 - 01:35 = 5/4
01:35 - 01:40 = 4/4
01:40 - 02:14 = 7/4
02:14 - 02:46 = 3/4
02:46 - 03:20 = 7/4
03:20 - 03:31 = 4/4
Scale:
00:07 - 02:45 = G# Harmonic
02:45 - 03:31 = A Harmonic
Chord progressions:
00:07 - 00:26 = G#m - F# - E - Eb (i - VII - VI - V)
00:26 - 00:43 = G#m - E - Eb (i - VI - V)
00:43 - 00:50 = G#m - Eb (i - V)
00:50 - 00:54 = G#m - E - Eb (i - VI - V)
00:54 - 01:11 = G#m - F# - E - Eb (i - VII - VI - V)
01:11 - 01:16 = G#m - E - Eb (i - VI - V)
01:16 - 01:29 = G#m - E - Eb (i - VI - V)
01:29 - 01:35 = G#m - Eb (i - V)
01:35 - 01:40 = G#m - E - Eb (i - VI - V)
01:40 - 02:14 = G#m - F# - E - Eb (i - VII - VI - V)
02:14 - 02:46 = G#m - Eb (i - V)
02:46 - 03:31 = A - G - F - E (i - VII - VI - V)
My opinion:
Its crazy how much this song modulates its metric, it is very crazy, I have never seen a song modulate it so much. It modulates its harmony 1 time which is a good tool and the tempo is like medium velocity, slowing down the tempo is a tool that RIP has used before to emphasize some drama.
It is not very common that people analyse the music theory behind some of these music so that is why I wanted to do this, tell me if you want me to do this with more songs XD
perfect except for one note!!! @ 01:16 - 01:29 7/4 it switches back to 4/4 @ around 01:24 until it switches to 5/4 @ 01:29, but other than that it seems perfect to me!! idk anything about chord progressions/scales so I cant verify that but the metric and bpm are correct :)))) this is awesome!!! thanks so much!!
@@RIProducer Haha yeah I got some mistakes, my bad. Do you think it would be fun if I analyze your other songs? I'm kinda obsessed with music theory, I just like it.
thats literally so cool ur awesome
This truly is such an awesome song. I've been struggling to try and convert it into ukulele chords so I can play it for a while now. So I believe this should help, thank you for sharing more information about the song!

A song about CWD isn't something I expected that's for sure, but it's really cool (and terrifying) to see.. it's such a damn nightmarish concept, and I feel like it should be used more in art. The idea of being a "zombie" while also having an actual medical explanation behind it is such a good horror concept, it should be explored and researched more!
I feel like the best and/or most terrifying thing about the song is the fact that CWD affects only the deer family, and yet the character is a human (with antlers, but still). The idea of a living human being with human emotions suffering through such a nightmare is just awful to think about. Hearing about the experience from an actual human person makes it way more terrifying and makes you actually understand the suffering more deeply. The concept of a "zombie" disease with no cure and a 100% fatality rate experienced by an actual human being, the way they know that they have so little time left, the way they explain their symptoms, the way they care more about not infecting others than actually surviving.. it makes it so much more depressing.
This song is genuinely just genius! I love Asterian's voice, its sound makes the song way more depressing and actually serious, Asterian was genuinely the best possible pick for the song. The visuals not being actually creepy and intentionally scary, just footage of deer in the wild, makes it so eerie and disturbing.. We need more songs like these, exploring obscure but terrifying concepts while still being so emotional and having so much personality.
wow I really did just write an entire movie review about a song about a deer disease didn't I
actually, CWD is a prion disease, and while humans can't contract *it* specifically there are others that can affect humans like Mad Cow Disease and Fatal Familial Insomnia
@@afellowcorn ooh, I actually had no idea about this!! I might read more into it later, it seems interesting to learn about. Thank you for telling me!
i know its a really late reply and kinda off topic but there's thing that looks like human turning zombie by the time. fatal insomnia, as i remember only 40 people of all world is ill with it. it has prion nature too. one can't sleep at all and it slowly drives person mad. it's sure different from rabies or chronic wasting disease but i think it hurts even more when the only thing you're suffering from is total insomnia, it will bring other symptoms by itself eventually, you can't properly think, control yourself as your body can't rest and have to go through exhaustion. nothing helps to cure it. it's kind of scary too...
ahh there was reply about it already. sorry😅
Medical Anomaly got me through a lot of really hard times and I really want to thank you for that. I know you probably make this stuff to reclaim your narrative, but you’re also helping other people reclaim their narratives too, even if just a little bit. There’s no pressure to upkeep that role, I just wanted to say thank you.
Can we take a second to appreciate how much better R.I.P's gotten at art? They have improved so much from their earlier mvs and the art here looks so cool and polished!
Bitch all my seconds go to appreciating rip's art
Fr! Their newer art is literally so beautiful they've improved so much! Comparing this art to something old like the monochrome mentality it looks drastically different (I still love TMM's art tho)
@@IcedBugTea Agreed! The art in that music video still looks really cool but there has definitely been improvement
this song is so good, I got randomly recommended it and I’m so glad
Whenever I watch a video from them I really like searching for little details! I always appreciate how good at art they are.
CWD is honestly the stuff of nightmares and horror movies. I wasn't expecting there to be a song about it, and I'm very excited!
Edit: Finally listened to it, and yeah it was worth the wait!
I love this song. Don't know if it was the song's intention or meaning but the concept of something like CWD occurring in something fully conscious like a human is absolutely terrifying and really good story material.
Like, it can be in the body for ages before showing symptoms and when they do present you would know that the countdown has already started and there is nothing anyone can do. You're on a timer now. And what an awful journey to death it would be.
There are things in humans that are like this, such as rabies but for some reason CWD feels a bit different.
Maybe it's the whole body horror that's clearly displayed in the moose, titled heads, drooling, stumbling around in circles, the fact that even if they want to run their bodies don't let it.
I saw a clip of a moose with CWD, as the human approached to put it out of it's misery it started getting frantic and you could clearly tell it wanted to run but it's body just continued doing increasingly frantic circles.
That in particular got to me cause that whole thing implies that their mind is still in there even at that stage.
Horrifying. And great fiction material.
Indeed!
Actually, there is a similar prin disease in humans, and it's called Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. It's absolutely horrific.
You can get prion disease if you eat something infected with it, or get it from your parents genetically. CWD is a prion disease
I love how, even when the song is about CWD specifically, it can also be relatable for anyone with deteriorating illnesses, fisical or mental, it doesn't matter, this song fits perfectly.
The wanting to be hold, don't noticing how bad the situation really is until it's too much, having someone you love that helps you yet you don't want then to mourn your lost, and the last chorus that is the "i give up" phase, when you don't care what happens to you or how people see you anymore, you 'give in to decay' and become a vengeful ghost of your former self
So as someone with a contantly deteriorating mental state this song hits really close to home, i picture myself as the singer every time i listen to this, confused and helpless
As someone with a chronic illness, paranoia, and a dissosiative disorder you've given a voice to my fears so I can finally explain them to my therapist and begin to work through them...
Thank you❤
This song is very cathartic for me, considering the weird way my body is acting. "Coincidentally I've been debating if I'm imagining the tremors and the aches." Just speaks to me on so many levels, it's insane. There's also "Kill every inkling of a doubt, cause now my legs are giving out" is just scarily accurate. God, there's so many lines in this song that just makes me want to scream with how relatable it is.
And I don't know why.
I know my body is essentially giving up on me. I know that I've become weaker, I've gotten exhausted way too easily. I'm always in some sort of pain, and sleeping is such a tedious procedure I've given up on it as of right now. And on top of that, no one believes me. So, if I need help, I won't get it. But it's nice to have a song such as this, so I could silently scream and cherish whatever life I have left.
Thank you for making it.
hey, this is a long shot, but i have suspected hypermobile ehlers danlos and a lot of this sounds like what i experience! if you also have hypermobile/"double jointed" joints and fragile/stretchy skin please do some research and talk to your doctor! its a rare illness (like i said, this is a long shot) but its something to think about
So I have Covid. This song hits that much harder now.
Same here, been happening for almost two years, gotten particularly bad the last few months. It’s probably exhaustion paired with long Covid or pots, don’t know. Might never know honestly since I keep putting off making an appointment for it, I just don’t have the energy for all those tests. Not unless I actually pass out. Knowing I’m probably fine and that this is probably just how my body is now doesn’t make it any less scary or miserable though.

-------------------------------
Inside an entity
It hibernates
It doesn't show itself
Until it is too late
Coincidentally,
I've been debating
If I'm imagining
The tremors and the aches
Saliva spilling out my mouth
And yet my throat is still in drought
I should've known that it would bite me in the back
Now,
There is a malady inside my soul
Can nothing help me to regain control?
And now the agony is taking toll,
Promise me you'll hold me
If I live through the night
Inside an entity,
It stays concealed
How can I ascertain
What's fake and what is real?
But incidentally,
I had a feeling
My situation was the
Furthest from ideal
Kill every inkling of a doubt
'Cause now my legs are giving out
If I'm contagious
Then you're gonna wanna get out
I know I'm struggling to fit the role
Isn't there anything to make me whole?
And I can stomach it, or so I'm told.
But promise me you'll hold me
So I'll live through the night
Here and now,
I would scream and shout
If I'm allowed to
Don't give out!
No, I don't know what I'd do without you!
Don't you see?
I have lost command of sublimation
Leave me be, 'cause the damage has begun
There is a malady inside my soul
Nothing can help me to regain control
Now that the agony has taken hold,
Just promise me you'll cut me off
And live through the night!
Burn down the danger zone
Set it alight
I've no concern for things like fear and fright!
There's no contingency
Our hands are tied
So why don't I surrender
And give in to decay?
Every single second
I've been wasting away!
ty for this
I thank you for your comment.
NOW GET THIS MAN TO THE TOP OF THE COMMENT SECTION SO PEOPLE DONT HAVE TO SCROLL FOR THE LYRICS!!
I am so excited for this! Love the title, by the way. CWD isn’t talked about enough, so maybe it will convince some people to research it.
Definitely! CWD is one of my hyperfixations along with the other prion diseases.
Been stuck in a dissociative episode for almost a week now, and I'm starting to feel violent and self-destructive.
This song is...comforting. Like it understands.
CWD in this song is like losing control of your mind and thoughts too.
I didn't realize that chronic wasting disease was a real thing. I swear to god the first thing i said was "bros just like me fr". And if that doesnt say that my chronic illnesses are horrifically poorly managed, then I don't know what will.
Also, the song is very good!!! I want to steal Asterian's voice
YES a rip song with Asterian! It's gonna be amazing! And rip's art just keeps improving! Look at that drawing it's so good!!!!!
WOAHHH THE TUNING?! It’s so coooolll!! Sometimes English vocaloid songs can be super hard to understand without subtitles, but his voice is so clear and you’ve put in enough distortion to make it gritty without making it had to understand. Another banger!
did anyone else get recommended that one video like "this is chronic wasting disease" and that's the only reason they know what this is
thats the video that made me make this song!!!!
@@RIProducer oh fr !!
YEP-
@@RIProducer Ye
Yeah :3
This was SICK!!! 🎉🎉
tysm!!!
heh. heheh. SICK. and its. its prion disease. hehehehehe get it.
@@rachelnelson3765 LOL
I just noticed he’s slowly getting smaller throughout the song. I guess that represents how prions would make him fade away
I wrote an assignment on CWD back in around January, and not only that, but I saw a comment that connected another prion disease to Fruiting Bodies.
It was quite the surprise to see this next song following that exact same topic, but I’m definitely excited! I really want to see how you use Asterian too!
this is gonna sound weird, but this song gave me the inspiration that i have been seeking for years. i finally got the backstory of a certain one of my characters for a book series im writing cause of you, and you have my deepest gratitude. the song itself is absolutely fantastic, to the beat, the lyrics, the sad vibe and creepy aspects, and that was enough to help me get many years long problem fixed!
The way he sings in a "not-on-measure" way really makes the vibe of the whole not-knowing-what's-going-on thing feel extra real. (does that make sense?)
anyway, great job as usual, rip!
Yessss, it sounds like he's already disconnecting from reality cuz of the disease, it adds to the vibes of it all 💔
Chronic Wasting Disease is such a horrifying thing and you translated it so well! Glad to see Asterian getting the spotlight too, disturbingly amazing work!
Aw man, the song comes out at 2 am for me :')
BUT I'M SERIOUSLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS, YOUR TUNING HAS BEEN SO AMAZING AND I JUST KNOW THAT THIS IS GONNA BE A MASTERPIECE
Edit: WHAT?! THIS IS SO TASTY???
It's a bop! I hope you enjoy it as much as I am when you see it!
REALLLL
I AM UNABLE TO FIND THE RIGHT WORDS TO DESCRIBE THIS SONG, IT’S JUST SO DEEP AND I TRULY LOVE IT
*I’M SAVING IT TO MY PLAYLIST NOW-*
i think the right word might be “crunchy”
@@undertale-perseverance
lol that’s one I guess
ITS YUMMERS
the lines about saliva and "drought in my throat" hit hard considering two of the symptoms of rabies are excessive salivation and a dry sensation in your throat, and rabies really makes the sufferer's brain waste away physically along with their mind. it can be interpreted as another "wasting disease". regardless of the angle you look at this in, the lyrical and visual imagery on this song is perfect.
🙏🙏🙏been thinking for a while chronic wasting disease and its other animal counterparts has so much vocaloid song potential SO GLAD DOMEONE ELSE HAS FINALLY REALIZED THIS
im loving the use of asterian by vocaloiders recently, his voice is so deep and lovely :) and beautifully used here!
i like how you have more than one song thats about a weird science/nature thing that also sounds like a metaphor. it's a fun genre and i love it
THE SONG COMES OUT ON MY BIRTHDAY! FINALLY SOMETHING I CAN BE HAPPY ABOUT!
Bruh, you're awesome and you know it. Quit playin'. Also happy early birthday.
It comes out on my birthday as well!
Happy birthday
HAPPY BIRTHDAY RANDOM GUY 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Happy birthday to you and the other replier! Hope y’all are having an amazingly spectacular day as radical as you are!! ✨✨✨
Oh my god, I love Asterian, I'm so glad you used him
This song literally slaps so hard, all of your songs slap but this one just hits different
MY EXCITEMENT SENSES ARE TINGLING AND I FEEL LIKE I WANNA ANIMATE SOMETHING WITH THIS SONG WHEN IT RELEASES
Learned about this after mom told me she was cutting the hair I grew out for 3-4 years, at least something good came from today
ASTERIAN??? IN A RIP VOCALOID SONG??? YES YES TAKE ALL MY BONES I DON'T NEED THEM WHEN I HAVE THIS
...And THERE'S the one unhinged comment about bones under every english vocaloid music video!
UA-cam was so kind to delete my comments but my pathophysiology obsessed self WILL be back. I WILL come back with an essay. Just you wait. (Read in threatening tone.)
Its been 3 days and im stuck listening to this on loop,its an earworm in the best way possible
i didn’t listen to the lyrics very closely before, but then i heard “why don’t i surrender and give into decay?” and HAD to go back and apply all the lyrics to my cotl au
Omg wait Sky player?
@@nekomataumbreon no sorry cult of the lamb 😭
hii! both sky and cotl player here this song seems like it applies to both games really well! >:]
This fits two separate ocs of mine and I'm feasting. like seriously there's two separate subsets of lines that fit uncannily well for each of them. magnificent.
this song right here is the reason i made a fake disease and then proceeded to give one of my ocs lore
EXPLAIN YOUR MAGIC WITH MAKING MUSIC SO GOOD IT MAKES SOMEONE LIKE ME GIVE THEIR OC LORE AND PROCEED TO MAKE A MADE UP DISEASE
EXPLAIN IT 😡
THIS IS SO CATCHY AND COOL- but man chronic wasting disease is horrific, I studied it for a horror story I made for creative writting in highschool. Song almost *perfectly* fits my main character and that is so so cool- Amazing song and thank you for making it!
the little background beep thing idk what to call it BUT the sound in the background at 1:39 is making me absolutely rabid ITS SO GOOD like idk what it is about it BUT I LOVE IT SO MUCH
this entire song is so good ive come to the conclusion you just dont miss when making music
Oh my gods such a good song! Been listening to it on loop for the past hour, it sounds like it would be a 2018 Vocaloid / MLP Meme audio :D
This song has sent me down a hyperfixation rabbit hole of prion diseases and I couldn't be happier
same.
welcome to the club
CWD, my deerly beloathed.
I love the song but god almighty if the real thing isn't scary. I like this song. It is not fun by any means and the tuning is great!
I really like the way you change the tempo in your music, it always feels fresh and it's super expressive! This song is really amazing, Asterian sounds very cool with your style ✨
WAIT IS THAT SOLARIA IN THE BACKGROUND??? THEY SOUND SO GREAT TOGETHER OMG
this song makes me cry. i cry whenever i hear this song
10/10 would listen constantly even with the fact that i cry easily
i want to hug and cuddle him :(
Hello I want to say that this song is lovely! and now I'm gonna say some fun deer facts! [it could be a lil disturbing]
They rip the flesh from their antlers against rocks because it makes them feel better and not weird
Did you know the the deer is the most weirdest animal out there? they're like their own cryptids but I love them
THIS MAKES MY BRAIN GO SKRUNK IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE-
don't worry that's just the prions
Well, somebody had to make a song about Chronic Wasting Disease. Good job translating one of the most disturbing diseases I know of into a song format!
I got to love the human deer.
Love the theme of this song! Chronic Wasting Disease is absolutely terrifying and overlooked by far too many people. Not to mention the song itself is a bop!
RIP.. you did a amazing job once again with your art and your research about CWD, its like we can actually feel how he feels in the song.. I love love love it!!
OH MY GOD!!!!! I find CWD so interesting, like, how the fuck can something actually live while basically decomposing???? thatnk you RIP!!!!!
*RIP voice* another one
framing this comment on my wall /j
OMG i remember being so dead scared and hyperfixed on the possibility of this becoming a zombie apocalipse. I love it!!! Im so happpy u made this!!!
Excited for the new song already! The art looks realy nice too :D
Oooh, I love this. It's chilling but his voice sounds so good with it, like you can hear the anguish.
goddamn i never knew prion diseases made such good music, i am a desk and this song is an ace attorney lawyer trying to prove a point
GRRRRRRT SONGS ABOUT MEDICAL CONDITIONS GRRRRRRR DEERS GRRRRR
NEW RIP SONG?!
ON ME AND MY PARTNERS ANNIVERSARY?!
GIRLYPOP, ILYSM, YOU MAKE MY LIFE BETTER
It's brightly shining attractive and heavily powerful passionate song!!!
“How can i asertate whats fake and what is real?” Thats a bit too relatable there
i love how the song being in 7/8 (or i guess 14/16) time signature just makes the beat feel incomplete or like something is wrong it fits really well here
Y’all know what it’s time for- it’s time to repeat this song for an entire month
we stan asdeerian
This will definitely reach 1M views one day. It’s awesome!!
I LOVE THE VOICE! 💗 Sounds kinda like big al (when his voice is used correctly lol)
"While we are standing, our heroes are chosing weapons, tactics and more to made this night unforgetable. So don't forget dear spectators, made that yours emotions hit the heart of your favorite"
ill bet you all two nickels asterian dies by the end of this song
Best hand me two nickels than
i’m allergic to nickels. would you accept a dime?
I mean (spoilers) he gives into decay at the end (aka he most definitely does die) so you win the bet (don't have any nickels tho sorry)
yippee!
MAN I MISSED THE PREMIERE FOR THIS 😭 BUT I'VE LISTENED TO IT NOW AND IT'S SOOOOOO GOOD !!!!!!!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ASTERIAN SO I'M STARING AT THIS SONG WITH MY BIG AUTISTIC EYES ... another one for the playlist :D
Idk about you guys but I like how direct this song is about it’s topic. Like usually Vocaloid songs about diseases and such are more vague (ie Amygdala’s Ragdoll & Fruiting Bodies) and I like that too, but the fact that this song just rips the bandage off immediately makes it stand out a lot.
Keep up the great work mate! 👍🏽
it’s kinda scary how little things in the brain can cause death even if the affected person/creature is perfectly healthy.. it’s a scary thing to think about, that and those mushrooms that control small/medium dead bugs like puppets.. nature can be so incredibly cruel sometimes, huh?
Oh wow! I like the inspiration youve been taking from freaky-deaky nature stuff lately. CWD was a great choice! love the spooky vibes!
I am so in love with Asterian's voice!!
I love this Asterian is WONDERFUL and this song is just what I needed to hear him in
I LEARNED ABOUT THIS DISEASE AND AM KINDA EXCITED TO HEAR THIS NOW
rip never fails to disappoint
Bro i see you everywhere in Ghost and Rip's songs 😭
Captain Cuttlefish if he were an Octoling: 1:29
But seriously great work, instant banger.
HELP
I agree with a few of the other comments here, Fruiting Bodies!Gumi and CWD!Asterian should be friends
I LOVE it
The time signature, the lyrics, it's just so good! Imma listen to this on repeat for now on
A cover of this song but instead of deer videos it's that one damn This Is Chronic Wasting Disease video that invades everyone's recommended every now and then
