Yeah.
I also recommend not listening to How Do I Live (Bunny in the Box mix) because it takes away a lot from the flash. But it's still amazing in flash form. But yeah, Black Hole, Green Sun. Amazing song, but it's absolutely horrible to listen to it before Cascade. -- Rank 9, Dr. Peace?

I feel the same way with the rest of Cascade except Flare (which is just weak). It was a 'HOLY ****' moment for me when I heard Savior of the Dreaming Dead, but I can only imagine how someone who HASN'T heard it before would feel upon reaching the flash. What? No way, Flare is the second best part of Cascade (although all of it is great.) I do agree that Cascade shouldn't be spoiled though, even for someone who might not read Homestuck at all. It just... doesn't really work without the context. Black Hole/Green Sun in particular, for me, belongs at the end of Cascade and nowhere else. Shouldn't even be listened to on its own without the rest of the piece. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Still get chills at SotDD during every rewatch, TBQH.
Also a hard song to listen to by itself for me compared to just listening to Cascade as a whole because it ends differently. I prefer how SotDD closes off in the flash, definitely. -- "Why are you inquiring as to whether a fictional child has four penises?

I like both the album and Cascade version of Flare, although the flash version is noticeably better. <_< I hope that version gets a standalone version at some point.

From: Paratroopa1 | #255 Flare is extraordinarily weak. Beta is basically Descend, with all that comes with the territory. Black Hole Green Sun summarizes the bleakness of the situation and how the climax is fast approaching, and Savior of the Dreaming Dead is...well, Doctor is pretty much the 'hope' theme of Homestuck. SotDD is what happens when the hope theme decides to rock out, and it's about as great as you'd expect. Flare is...fluff. A background piece. It's not touching, it's not memorable, and it's not tied to key scenes that add extra emotional punch, either. It's not bad, but it's forgettable. EDIT: Yes, I was thinking of the album version, because I legitimately can't remember what the Cascade version of Flare was like.

Flare is fluff?
buh? Man, part 3 of Cascade is like, the best part if you set aside story importance (since it's kind of hard to top parts 6 and 7 in terms of sheer "holy s*** factor"). The art's fantastic, I really like the gimmick of the way the background and foreground are used, and Flare sets the atmosphere perfectly and has a great buildup to the part with Spades and Snowman, which is impressive given they're practically joke characters up to this point. ...

Flare has Dave and Rose drifting to oblivion, it's a very emotional part of the flash. Perhaps it's undermined by the fact SotDD and Jade going Dog Tier is so uplifting and such a memorable moment.

I'm listening to Cascade Beta and Descend one after the other, and watching Descend with the volume off and Cascade Beta playing instead, and....I'm really just not even seeing a remote similarity here.

Probably my favorite piece on any of the soundtracks, with Cascade (especially the Flare segment) taking second.
