Holy shit total trip down memory lane watching this. I grew up with your stuff more or less and thought you stopped making raps glad to see your still as good as ever. but I miss your post on machinima.
imagine how fucking terrifying it would be if u found out u killed a powerful warriors family and him himself and then he comes back claiming he can never die and is out for vengance?? no escape
Absolutely terrifying, I was toying with them by letting my self die but bring them incredibly close to death and just left them on a sliver of health.
This is one of my favorite games of all time (so much fun, and the DLCs were definitely worth it). This song does it justice, and I keep coming back for more.

It's undeniably amazing how you and Pat come up with a rap mostly every single week. What makes it even better is that they are so GOOD! You guys truly deserve more subscribers and I can't believe the channel doesn't even have 100,000. This has to be my favorite by far and I hope you guys keep it going and hit a million someday. :D
Agreed. Have you noticed that Lord of the Rings is one of the few series left that keeps making games better than the previous ones. I mean The Hobbit --> Third Age --> War in the North --> Shadow of Mordor. Each one is so so much more awesome than the last one.
Lusus Naturae actully..... they are writed by J.R tolken, but never published as books, so we don't know, but he have never denied it as a part of the story
Another amazing work Skull,but I have to admit,I thought a game like SOM is more of a metal-type for rap other than an eletronic beat,but it was still good,and the chorus as always is catchy...10/10 c: Yes I know there was a bass/guitar there somewhere,but I meant as the entire song being like that,other than in just a few parts. -Please don't kill me-
We appreciate the feedback! Any constructive feedback is ALWAYS welcome. Helps us learn and grow. I understand and partially agree with you, I think this track may have done well with a more rock-type vibe. Lately I've been working on learning to produce dubstep and working with the new software synths I have, which is why this and "Maniac" were very electronic heavy. But we really do appreciate your input, it helps us learn what we're doing right and what we're not :). I'm glad you enjoyed the song though, me and Patfan both put a lot of work into it and were very pleased with how it came out!
Oh,alright! Well either way,it still looked awesome,but just that tip,look at one game you're gonna make a rap about,and try imagining what type would combine with it (With Zelda series for an example,I can't think of anything better than rock) or even BF,even though it's a gun game,it still sounds awesome with rock,but you can also mix both a bit of dubstep AND rock like you did here,I can't say the same for COD though,it only fits with that eletronic vibe,but yeah,I guess you guys already got the hang of it.
Thiagogd Yeah,i have to agree with you.The Chorus part was a bit too dubstep heavy,but the song was still awesome! 10/10 :D Maybe im just too spoiled,because of all the awesome/amazing chorusparts in skulls raps :D (Reason to live/We are one/The reclaimer/ Legend etc. ) :D
Awesome! Nice twist on how the sound of the bridges fit the theme of the game and the sound of the chorus fits the awesomeness of playing the game. Again, great job!
this is a dope song i just listened to this for the 18th time i love this song now all i need to do is learn the lyrics and once i do ill finally be able to rap this bad ass song im givin mad props to skull and pat and the whole machinima crew you guys rock there is no tomorrow keep it up guys this is great
If this had some sort of co-op multiplayer this would've been the closest thing yet to a perfect game (aside from the sheer near blindness of most Uruks)
immortality is a really cursed thing when you think about every single your loved one your gonna have to watch die from old age before their body turning to ground again while your stuck forever in a loop for ever in it cause your gonna get new ones meaning your mental state will get worse over time
Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor is my favourite game on PS4 and it's so awesome that you made a rap about it, which is like totally 100% fantastic. keep up the good work and nice rap
Stealth: SoM did it better. Climbing: SoM did it better. Combat: SoM did it better. Characters: SoM did it better. Story: SoM did it better. Unique mechanics: SoM did it better. PC optimization: SoM did it better. Minor features (army building): SoM did it better. As much as I love Assassin's Creed, shut the fuck up before you embarrass yourself. Seriously. Don't even try to compare this game to something as stale as Assassin's Creed.
Agent Hudson32 I haven't played Shadow of Mordor, but, if I understanding it correctly, and we look at it in a plot and story manner, the protagonist from SoM (Shadow of Mordor) is immortal and can literally take on an ethereal form, making him even less to face his 'fake' demise. Also, he indicates to posses the power of mind-slaving most of his enemies, and can't say Gerald is any exception to that, if he was his enemy. Gerald does not have probability on his side, by the looks of it, anyway.
SteamPlayerSince1999 I have never played the witcher but i know he uses magics and is skilled at using swords so since some skilled uruks(without powers)can put up a fight i would not say geralt would just lose instantly but i do agree talion would probably win.
JT man you have saved my life man my soul mate doesn't love me and is dating my friend instead I was planning suicide but I calmed down and listened to this and I won't kill myself because I want to hear more of your music so please keep being awesome and making even more awesome music and congrats man u saved my life 😅
Reduce the speed to 0.25, and start tapping pause/play at 03:44. At 03:45 you'll get a blink-and-you-will-miss-it glimpse of Celebrimbor at his absolute creepiest.
If you ask me this is one best raps, I mean the entire song is catchy af, not to mention that he perfected the main chorus. The content in the video itself is dope as hell, and it as a whole is put together perfectly, so I don't care what any of ya haters think this video is one of his best, and JT Machinima is the bomb, keep on doing what your doing dude, you'll always have a fan in me.
This song deserves a remaster in my opinion
you mean.... like this one? ua-cam.com/video/lObgJJEn_lY/v-deo.html made 5 years ago?
:3
I first this
Honestly
Yes.
Fr
Nearly 10 years later and the intro still goes way too hard. We definitely need a remaster of this and the Hitman rap
I remember sitting on rooftops and just waiting for that fucking captain to just walk under me.

Kyle Starman gr8 m1nds think alike
Aaron Quinn Murphy What if you could do shit like what the Black Hand did?
The Shadow Shapeshifter That would be cool, sacrifice people?
Kyle Starman I mean in the end, where he cut his own throat & drew Celebrimbor out of Talion...
Skull, I'm not tired of reiterating this. Submit these tracks in to devs for E3, you'll make millions.
I second this.
I third this.

2014 game of the year- shadow of mordor
2014 song of the year- shadow of mordor rap
Very true. I agree.
Jack Cross hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
....
...
2014 song is cod aw rap i(i want it all)
3:49 - 4:04 My fav part, especially with that bloody Warchief. The beat itself just sells it.
“Strike fear in middle earth, Till I am rid this curse, the one I bear as gravewalker…” CHILLS EVERYTIME….
This is one of my favorite games of all time (so much fun, and the DLCs were definitely worth it).
This song does it justice, and I keep coming back for more.

Wait, SoM has DLCs?!
Lusus Naturae juup, master of the hunt and the bright lord, defintly worth buying
CreepMcJack lord of the hunt not master
I understand it now! Acharn means "Vengeance" in Sindarin.
family fails It’s Acharn means shadow
@@faizontaylor4591 actually archan means vengeance
@@lutan4867Indeed, In Shadow of War, one of Celebrimbor’s battle cries is Tol Acharn which means Vengeance Comes.
Awake from my demise
With empty spectral eyes
Now I'll never have my days numbered
Strike fear in Middle Earth
'Till I am rid this curse
The one that I bear as Gravewalker
Urfael, Azkar
And the shattered blade of Acharn
Hangin' on to all that I have lost
Vengeance is the weapon that I act on
Stabbing the backs of your many captains
Slash through a pack of your every last guard
Trackin' my enemy to an exact spot
Grab 'em up by the neck and then harass them
Moving between two entities, you're first to go
My Nemeses remember me, it's personal
Sauron - you're on and here's your curtain call
Mount Doom will soon be mine, no vertigo
Say what you want, I will withstand every threat
You'll come to find that I'm a problem
I've been banished from death
From death I've been sent
Back on another level
Possess omnipotence
Battling like a devil
I'm practiced with
Inter-dimensional travels
No matter where you step
You're standin' in my shadow
I'm folding time and space
You can't deny your fate
'Cuz I'm already here
You're gonna know my name
Before I show my face
I know your every fear
Behold this storm of swords
We own this horde of orcs
Under Celebrimbor they've sworn
To serve, this army is yours no more
When I knock on the doors of Mordor
Gondorian horns will roar
I am taking your lord to war
I call that an impressive tour de force
You cannot endure a course
Of action that will ensure my forward swarm
Of warriors bore through
Your boarded fortress doors
I'll shatter your orcish swords
You might wanna forge some more
For every orc that's born
They will only keep me more informed
From death I've been sent
Back on another level
Possess omnipotence
Battling like a devil
I'm practiced with
Inter-dimensional travels
No matter where you step
You're standin' in my shadow
I'm folding time and space
You can't deny your fate
'Cuz I'm already here
You're gonna know my name
Before I show my face
I know your every fear
Gravewalker, you bond us
Please shed your light upon us
I've ripped you down from
Where you stood
You wish me death, I wish you could
By now you've met your doom
If not you'll get there soon
Cuz' I'm prepared to test
My weapons with these epic runes
Severing heads, and collecting debts
But I'm only set on you
I have come for the Black Hand
It's your last chance to surrender to
The human who's proven to become a nuisance
Loosen the grip that you had on the brutes
Reduced into empty vessels I use
To rattle your ranks, unsettle your troops
I am the recurring curse that your Uruk heard of
By word of mouth
So you can keep churning out these orcs
But how's that workin' out
From death I've been sent
Back on another level
Possess omnipotence
Battling like a devil
I'm practiced with
Inter-dimensional travels
No matter where you step
You're standin' in my shadow
I'm folding time and space
You can't deny your fate
'Cuz I'm already here
You're gonna know my name
Before I show my face
I know your every fear
Cheers, you legend
You are a legend cheers mate
Thank you!
Thank you, now I can write a full RWBY version.
@@akirandrake414 I'm interested to see what it looks like
All these years and it's still a bop
THIS IS THE BEST SHADOW OF MORDOR RAP EVER
Honestly nothing beats "Your gonna know my name before i show my face" in my opinion that just screams alpha bad ass
Damn Skull the chorus is always epic as heck!
It's undeniably amazing how you and Pat come up with a rap mostly every single week. What makes it even better is that they are so GOOD!

Le Shark Damn, they're already near 1 million subs now.
Edit: almost 2 million
So, you are from the future, eh?
2.3 million now
3.22 million now
epic rap for a epic game
Honestly one of my favorite songs from this channel tbh, both this and Embrace My Curse
Shame it's not popular tbh
Am I the only one who thinks a better name for this rap would be "Standing in my Shadow"?
The name's awesome as it is, but I think it would be more fitting! : )
Agreed. Have you noticed that Lord of the Rings is one of the few series left that keeps making games better than the previous ones. I mean The Hobbit --> Third Age --> War in the North --> Shadow of Mordor. Each one is so so much more awesome than the last one.

This song would go hard as fuck with a remaster. We need one!
But even if we don't, this song's still pretty boppin'!!
Still good after 10 years
This song is soooo addicting
Idk why but when he names the weapons it sounds so cool
I've waited for this...,and finally it's here.
I can't wait to hear what for the "Shadow of War" rap.

one of my favourite songs

For the emperor
i love all of your music. it is all very catchy and i havent found a song i didnt like
Does anyone else feel that Talion is getting more powerful as the rap progresses
@Sammy Jones well thats cuz Talion gets more powerful as the game itself progresses so it makes sense. XD
While the rap is good, I think this one has the most audio with the most epic beat.
easily my favorite, along with the Overwatch and DS3 ones

at 2:45 you can see the hud, and i have have the xbox 360 version of this game and it looks completly different. what version is this?
That's some alpha footage
thx
Why do you have Xbox 360 version did you not upgrade yet?

Thx for making it i really love the game and the movie
This piece is fantastic!
I listen to this when playing Shadow of War and Shadow of Mordor
THANK YOU FOR THIS BADASS SONG :)
this is the best song ever
This is amazing. Truly amazing.
This gets me thinking the characters in Lord of the rings and the games and even some of the uruks are very handsome for the time they are in.
The best way for you guys is that your friends are very nice 👍🏼
We want a remaster of this song!!!
I have no Idea why this is, but to me the choir in the beginning immediately remind me of the one used in Bloodbounds "Moria"

Amazing video and song Love it keep up the great work skull and pat!!!!!
this was my jam back in the day
I can’t find it on Spotify anymore what happened???
