Inferno (Cinder's Theme)
kyokugen da!! Simon Belmont's Theme Weird choice for a Pokemon track. I feel like I should like Inferno more than I do - it has several really good parts, but it goes on a bit too long and I don't really like ending - but it's still more than enough here. Don't really like either in the second match, so I'll go for the more interesting one. Long Way Down annoyed me, whereas its opponent didn't --- "Those who cast the vote decide nothing.

Inferno (Cinder's Theme)
kyokugen da!! Simon Belmont's Theme Oh yeah 1 Nom and 1 support going today, easily my favorite day of the contest so far! I'm incredibly nostalgic for everything Pokemon G/S/C but Inferno is just too good compared to Azalea Town. Oh hey we even have Belmont's Theme in the side bracket today, 3 top tier tracks for me today. --- Congrats to BKSheikah, winner of the BYIG Guru Contest! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Inferno (Cinder's Theme)
Rivellon Simon Belmont's Theme Inferno sure is cool. Azalea Town sure is... nope, got nothing. kyokugen da has some neat parts but I don't necessarily like the whole thing. I'm in the mood for the majestic mood of Rivellon. As for the side bracket, average though I think Simon Belmont's theme is, the vocals in Long Way Down kind of bothered me, and I disliked it by the end. --- Just killing time until the world ends. ...

Missed a few rounds. Oh well.
Match 1: Inferno (Cinder's Theme) Intense as hell! Damn! Azalea Town/Blackthorn City is kind of a weaker Pokemon track. Match 2: Rivellon A difficult round. But In the end, gonna give it to Rivellon. Side Bracket: Long Way Down Oh. I'm digging it. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Inferno (Cinder's Theme) - Possibly the best non-Arc Systems fighting game song to grace a contest! Vs. a Pokemon song. Not a hard match.
Rivellon - Man, Kyokugen is totally more my type of song, but it feels so plain! Rivellon's pretty solid. Held my interest a bit more. Long Way Down - Once again, this contest sucks for Castlevania songs. SB Theme isn't bad, but eh. LWD has some cool creepiness going for it. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. ...

kyokugen da!! Simon Belmont's Theme Azalea Town is the best song today, opponent isn't bad The riff at 1:17 in kyokugen da is giving me strong Symphony X vibes.

Inferno (Cinder's Theme)
kyokugen da!! Simon Belmont's Theme -First match: I'm not much of a fan of Heavy Metal as I am from Rock, the same way that I'm not much of a fan of violence as I am from action, but Azalea Town is a pretty "meh" Pokemon song (I don't know if Red's Battle is retired or not, but if not, then why would you nominate this instead of Red? Heck, even Goldenrod City would be the best city/town-themed song from Gen II), so I have to lean towards Inferno. -Second match: kyokugen da's image is pretty disturbing; that aside, the song if pretty good, with some bits of progressive rock thrown into the mix, although it's a little too short. Rivellon goes into the opposite direction, playing a simple melody with relatively simple chords, although I don't like it that much when the fully orchestrated piece comes in... I don't know... It sounds kind of generic to me; but the rest is fine. -Third match: Ah... Simon Belmont's Theme... One of the most iconic pieces ofvideogame music of all time, and one of my favorites from the game's OST (I specially like the titillating sounds at 0:32-0:48). Long Way Down sounds like an emo-rock song, or something you'd listen to at MTV 10-15 years ago. It sounds dark, but not in a way that I enjoy much. --- Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Inferno (Cinder's Theme)
kyokugen da!! Simon Belmont's Theme Oh hey more Mick Gordon. I think Inferno is a bit exhausting to listen to. I don't think it's bad but I do find stuff like 0:26 to be really boring. It does evolve considerably from there so some credit to it, I guess. (I actually prefer the sections where the synth takes the lead.) Azalea Town is pleasant enough-- enough, in fact, to make this a pretty close match for me-- but a more fully-fleshed arrangement would really do this thing wonders. This is pretty sparse as-is. Kyokugen da-- see now, those babies know how to throw down some electric guitar. I like this. There are plenty of tracks I like with Rivellon's aesthetic, but Rivellon feels so paint-by-numbers in its composition and arrangement, from the incredibly common chord progression to the 'dramatic' string/brass crescendo. It plays the tropes it uses just way, way too straight-- nothing at all surprises me about this track. Simon Belmont's Theme is okay, though I think its melody is among the weaker ones in Castlevania's oeuvre. I do really like that syncopated synth section starting at 0:32, though. It's definitely the highlight of the track for me. I like both the progression and the mood set in the intro to Long Way Down. I think the vocals are kinda so-so. ... Copied to Clipboard!
