Why I'm SWEATING after listening to Regicide from Destiny: The Taken King OST



Regicide is one of these iconic tracks from the Destiny music world that many veterans know, and for good reason. It’s a fantastically powerful piece. Oryx of course, is one of the great bads of Destiny and stands on his own. I miss the Taken King. It really revitalized the series for me when it came out.

  1. Oh my god I love this track! Regicide is a masterpiece, I downloaded it from the official soundtrack and still listen to it! Does an excellent job of conveying a sense of dread!

  2. In my opinion, this is the best DLC Destiny ever had. It's in this point where the world and lore opened up exponentially and made the Destiny the game we all play and love. This was the moment that cemented your place as THE Guardian in the game and lore.

    Though in my opinion, the Last Stand is a far superior OST to the Regicide. 11/10 would slay another Hive god

  3. Man I got such nostalgia and shivers when recently playing the kings fall raid in destiny 2, when you start that final encounter with Oryx and regicide starts playing as he rises up to face us, revealing his true massive form.

  4. We just got a new raid that came out today and I highly reccomend you listed to the boss music. It's called Oneirophobia and it's a great representation of the state of the story of Destiny as well of a caricature of Nezerec as a character.

  5. Just popping in to recommend "The River" from Outer Wilds, as it's a favorite of that soundtrack for many, "Echoes of The Eye" is also a good one but I primarily recommend The River, it's amazing.

  6. This is the theme for Oryx in the Regicide story mission. Where we kill his physical form.

    Last Stand is the theme for Oryx in the King's Fall raid. Where we kill his ascendant form, which kills him for good.

  7. Hey Marco, awesome video! I love seeing every analysis you have of games I’ve played. It really adds another layer to my enjoyment for them. I think you will really like hearing the void climb song from Hollow Knight. I think it’s really moving considering the scenario and backstory to the lore of the game. When I saw your city of tears video it made me think of this. Thanks for the awesome content as always!

  8. I have discovered your channel for quite a while now and it never ceases to amaze me how diverse your content is in terms of the video game soundtracks you listen to – from Genshin to Arknights, to Monster Hunter, Terraria, Stellaris – and your ability to accurately interpret the themes and emotions in each piece is incredible (professional indeed!). Can't wait to see what your channel offers in the future!
    It is also my humble recommendation for you to have a listen to Monster Hunter Rise's Crimson Glow Valstrax Theme (among my personal all time favorites with the Fatalis Theme), your MH soundtrack analysis videos are very good! I am assuming you have lots on your schedule and it does seem that MH related content is off your channel's radar now, but that's okay! A suggestion is a suggestion after all 🙂
    All the best for you and your channel!

  9. Another great analysis as always, although I've been wondering if you've heard anything from (or, well, heard of, either or) project moon's games? The music in those games are always fantastic, but the vocal tracks are just on another level. Not only do they sound great, they're always full of such meaning and emotion, it would be really fun to see you listen and pick apart a few of the songs. If anything, "Between Two Worlds" from Limbus Company would be fantastic to have an analysis of, it has to be, by far, my favorite song in one of their games.

  10. Not sure if anything can top Journey, but guess we won't find out unless we keep trying hehe.
    Anyways, I'm also going to recommend the soundtrack for Clash: Artifacts of Chaos, developed by ACE Team with the soundtrack composed by Patricio Meneses. They recently uploaded the entire soundtrack to their official Youtube channel, with "The boy calls" and "Pseudo's theme" being some initial standout tracks. It seems to be drawing inspiration from spaghetti westerns, martial arts movies and who knows what else.

    Clash as a game is pretty intriguing, being set in the same punk-fantasy setting as two of ACE Team's previous games, Zeno Clash 1 and 2. Filled with plenty of strange inhabitants who seem mainly preoccupied with beating the crap out of each other.
