The parody elements in NMH1 are a lot more subtle and thematically effective than those in NMH2; the best example of this is the final boss with Jasper Batt Jr., which could've worked as an impactful finale if the Glastonbury fight or Mimmy didn't already exist.

I was never able to whistle until I heard Travis whistling the theme song. I'm not even kidding, it just suddenly came naturally randomly to me one night to start whistling the theme, and I still whistle it sometimes when I think about it. One of my goals in life is to annoy Ricky Gervais with it.

I lose my collective shit every time I hear that, “Travis it’s kill or be killed.”

Pretty sure I'm just overthinking it (and giving the creators a bit too much credit), but I always thought that the shift in tone was very deliberate. Through the act of trying way hard to become cool, Travis became cool to us fans. But that also meant him raising more attention than ever before, and thus getting under fire more frequently. The bosses did more cool stuff because that's pretty much all they know about Travis and consequently, the only ground to compete on besides power. And the soundtrack seemed to reflect on that. Where the first game was all about Travis and his "style" (and a catchy leitmotif to go along with), the second game was more about his motivation put up against a more pronounced cast of opponents (and their various mindsets/personalities).

@Osark-rj1pj

I'd say that's pretty spot on, dude. I think Suda and the team absolutely knew what they were doing with Travis' progression and the tonal shift. Also, the first game was already pretty wacky and indulgent, the sequel just went more into it

It's good!

I always love it when a game's music is used to actually add to the experience. One of my personal favorite examples is "Holy Orders III" from Guilty Gear Xrd. Holy Orders is the theme of the character Ky Kiske for the majority of the series, but when they switched over to Xrd everyone got a new theme. Part of this has to do with the state of the characters in the series having changed drastically between the previous major title and Xrd. The way Ky has changed has been him going from a brash go getter ready to smash the bad guys, into a much older and calmer man who needs to maintain a level head since he's now a king. While everyone got a new theme, the devs still decided to make a new version of Holy Orders, and just due to how it's used it has to be my favorite of the 4 (if we count "Holy Orders?"). When in a match, if the Ky Kiske has an instant kill used on him or is killed by a move that causes a hard knock down he loses the thing holding up his pony tail. Then, starting in the next round, "Holy Orders III" starts to play, which not only is a nice little easter egg, but adds to Ky's character as it's a representation that there's still a brash head strong kid in there ready to fuck some shit up.

Great soundtrack has a lot of impact. Metal Gear Rising Revengeange's last boss would have been a way more painful experience without the amazing soundtrack it had. It kept me going when I was struggling. For me a good soundtrack is something to be noticed while playing. Not something that is in the background, becoming a mere noise in the soundscape. That's one of the bigger sins games of today often do (atleast big ones). Cinematic soundtrack = forgettable soundtrack for me most of the time.

For years I wanted the OST on CD but could not find it. Then this gem of a video resparked my hunt but today, finally, I have the OST in my hand thanks to the Limited Run re-release of the full 3 disc CD album. Boy does it sound so much richer than ripped from KZread. Again thanks for this video, I have used it several times to introduce people to the NMH universe, so I felt it was fitting to drop a "thank you" this day.

Amazing video, I own NMH1 physical soundtrack but to this date is hurts me by how impossible it is to track down NMH2 physical soundtrack. Only 1000 copies of NMH2 soundtrack were made :(

Stopped everything I was doing to watch this dude I fuckin love your videos

Big up to my man Davo by the chippy. He got me a cracked copy of LSD: Dream Emulator back in 1999.

The best thing about these games it they know they are wacky and satire as hell and break the fourth wall very often. But, suda51 put a lot of thought in the mystery and the under lying layers.

Brilliant, thank you for the exposure this series deserves.

By the way, thanks for getting me into Suda 51 games. I picked up the silver case and loved it, and I've been playing through every single one of his games since.

No More Heroes was my first real shot at a crazy hack-and-slash action game, so the OST definitely stuck with me for a long time. I spent less time with the sequel so I don't think its music sunk in as much.

Also, pay attention to the brass in "Ms. Teller" and listen again to "Season of the Samurai."

I'm always amazed when you put out a video because I just can't imagine anyone else on KZread being able to achieve the level of flow that your videos exude.

What a lot of people forget and was never mentioned. Kill or be killed and we are cowboys remix were on a soundtrack called No More Heroes Sound Tracks Dark sides. A good majority of the album was used in the game. I agree it was implemented very well but I think it was the sing molding the level/boss as opposed to the other way around. For the two songs from the dark sides album.

Probably my favorite video of yours. I hope the rerelease sends some more people your way.

The gameplay actually is a lot better and you can control the camara better too. When I played I really did not get knocked down much, they expand a little more and you do a bit more than the 1st. The only difference is you can't walk around. Both games were wacky and both as dark. Also bosses still both have long invincibility frames you have to wait for to than attack, it was actually way worse in 1st. Depending on katanas used depended on how much damage you did also you had to train in the gym to kill enimes faster.

Just gotta say, that cut at the "Woo!" In Kill or be Killed was fantastic.

Great video, this series is my aesthetic, I need to play these

This is literally me with Revengeance. I can't get hyped enough when a boss fight is about to begin and the music kicks in.

Yo, this video was great. I didn't think I'd enjoy an analysis of a soundtrack to a game I've never played, but this was fantastic.

That was pretty cool, now I'm checking through the entire soundtrack on KZread :D

Just recently finished the second game for the first time, listening to the soundtrack makes me appreciate the series more than ever, can't wait to see(hear) what nmh3 had to offer. This Friday Baby!!

What an absolutely beautiful soundtrack, incredibly memorable. Even the shitty parts have great music over it. Can't wait for NMH 3.

Damnit, man. You gushing over this soundtrack just makes me want to play through the game for an eighth time and put the soundtrack on repeat for three days straight. Stop it.

4:24 this song was made by the game who composed the ost for Blinx. I’m not kidding.

I love Margaret's theme so much. It's essentially a big fuck you to Travis saying how big of a loser he is.

Really nice to see a video about soundtracks, a good OST can add so much to a game. Two recent favourites of mine are Yakuza 0's and Gravity Rush 2's.

Reminds me a lot of 'Fooly Cooly'

I never got around to playing the games yet but I did give the soundtracks a listen prior and I loved what I heard, definitely some of the best game soundtracks ever made :)

Great vid. Great commentary.

the ost is dope. i m surprised this video didn't happen sooner.

Dude that first tutorial level at that big building where you fight target 50 is a banger with the song

Even the first game is all smug like "shame there wont be more"

This is the only game I haven't played myself that I actually listened to the soundtrack backwards and forwards to I love the music of the no more heroes games

Shoegazer watched the stars is one of my fav video game tracks ever. Nmh2 may not be the best storywise but good golly does it trump the rest in the music dept. Toothpaste. Subuta 1 and 2. Twin electromagnetic, happy warmore, slingshot, nathans theme (nathans our boss i think its called), legit one of the most pumped game osts ever.

One of my favorite series on the Wii and the reason why I even bought one in the first place

I would love a feature on the soundtrack of both madworld and anarchy reigns. both fantastic soundtracks imo

Awesome 'sleepy house over yonder' is still my favourite can't find another song quite like it :)

Please make more videos about game's with good soundtracks.

For years I was convinced NMH2 soundtrack wasn't as good as the first one. NMH2 had some cool tracks but it's not as varied and gritty, I have NMH1's ost and I listen to it still to this day. To me NMH2 is mostly punk rock which I like but there was so much. I liked NMH1's boss themes better cuz each one was radically different. You sir turned me around on this. Maybe I just needed context or I didn't play the game enough to be able to appreciate the soundtrack. Which now warrants me to play through NMH2 again with the volume turned up. Thank you sir. Feel free to do more videos like this.

I could have sworn that occasionally in NMH2 that when you're going through a level, theres a little bit of the original theme that plays during the song. The easiest for me to notice was the song that plays on the way to matt helms

Man, I never even knew about some of these tracks due to all the beam noises and grunts screaming!! I really should replay this someday with the SFX slider turned waaay down, so I can appreciate the music more

Great vid.

Never wished a video to be double the length before....

This reminded me of like a Digibro video. Should've titled it 'music is narrative' and then you'd be good to go. Seriously though, this was a really good video especially considering sound was the ain focus and it was very informative for me. They put an incredible amount of effort into the soundtrack.
