  • At long last, War Without Reason is finally here! This is the longest work I have composed and it’s not even close. Life, PT. II is longer on UA-cam but it has a repeat. If this had a repeat, it would be over twelve minutes long, which is crazy for a single piece.
    This really isn’t a single piece, though, as it comes in ten very distinct parts. It was incredibly fun to play around with the piano to create more melodic parts versus more droning.
    The first nine phases were all relatively quick to put together, but Phase X was the only reason it took so long to release. I really wanted to make sure that it would be a suitably grand finale to an already stunning piece.
    I have taken many liberties with this song compared to some of my other covers. Since the source relies so heavily on percussion, I interpreted it as a very heavy and low bass (and snuck in a couple of fun references).
    0:00 Phase I - The Climb
    0:31 Phase II - Blood Overflow
    1:03 Phase III - Ventilation
    1:36 Phase IV - City Streets
    2:08 Phase V - Defense System
    3:19 Phase VI - Phlegethon
    3:51 Phase VII - Final Ascent
    4:07 Phase VIII - Deus Ex Machina
    4:40 Phase IX - Critical Failure
    4:56 Phase X - Finale

    There is nothing to fear but fear itself,
    Is what the fools cried
    As they stared at fear itself
    The monster they had let inside
    Into their hearts, it burned like rust
    To turn all enemies to dust
    To fear fear itself and its shadows
    Is accepting the carnage it allows
    The first strike cries, like antennas to heaven
    The second strike roars, to make scores even
    Scores to settle that scorch the earth
    Fear consumed all calm light in that burning hearth
    Fear of being worse
    Fear of the other
    Fear of ending
    Who was once called a brother
    Let war wage, violence to all
    As humanity’s sanity shall crumble and fall
    Look what you’ve made, look what you’ve done
    This home is now a wasteland, all hope is none,
    And fear whispered wickedly…
    “I have won…”

      200 years of sorrow and suffering…
      at the mercy of mechanical hands..
      violence, bloodshed,
      sweat drips, blood falls, tears drop to the earth.
      and in the final….
      nothing but a barren wasted land.
      sure as the sun will rise…
      *the slaughter will continue*
      wind blows, rain falls, and war…
      is without reason.

    Would this be feasible to play on piano and if so can you make sheet music for it

      It would take a long time to switch the song from three to two tracks, but I'll give it a shot.

    Someone should animate this into an animation about the Final war.

    Personally I think the alarm-like tones in phase I and VI are a bit lower than the source material, but other than that this is a great cover
