IIRC the story behind this song was Capcom requested no electric guitar and Casey Edwards went "hmm digital electric guitar isn't electric guitar lol" and he fuggin slayed the task

He was told only electric guitars in the chorus, so he used a fuzz bass for the rest. You're thinking of Mick Gordon and how DOOM's soundtrack came to be.

Was it this song, or was it Devil Trigger? I can't remember which song had the Capcom limits put on it and which one Casey had free reign to compose. Could have sworn Bury The Light was the one where he was allowed to do whatever

I love how he dances with the song. At 9:49, he starts his own solo and then leaves the stage to the original part at 10:40. Perfectly balanced, as it all things should be.

The epitome of musicianship is bowing out to let other people have the limelight, when you play long enough you get a sense of when its coming.z

You know he's a skilled guitarist when he can't even listen to a good song for the first time without not jamming along with it😂😂😂

9:56 Holy mother of god that was insane

I'm impressed at the break at the end, where you played a solo and then the songs ACTUAL solo came in. Felt like some kind of duet, god damn!

I love the original song but holy SHIT did you bring this from a 10/10 to a 100/10 with your added depth.

I have never seen a "Bury The Light" reaction of someone playing with it just improvising and listening to catch on to the chord progressions. The original song actually doesn't have electric guitar in it, it's a distorted bass guitar and some crazy synths to mimic electric guitar! This whole video is EXACTLY what I imagine the song would sound like if Casey Edwards was allowed to use real electric guitar (he couldn't because electric guitar is a big part of Dante's theme and they wanted Vergil's to contrast, which it does perfectly), it would be even heavier than it is now and that's so satisfying. Incredible playing and I loved watching your jamming and improv, what an experience!

@@-antares_ Yeah, cuz Casey Edwards was allowed to use electric guitar ONLY in the chorus, that was a legit specification. The rest really is just distorted bass and synths.

NOW IM FEELING MODIVATED. The KZread algorithm came at me with a banger, his addition to the song actually elevated this song. This song is so epic that there are countless remixes and covers because in essence, ever version of the song is cannon in my eyes, every time thing song gets played, the musician is burying their own light with their own version on the same epic song

Holy God, at 8:35 onwards, when the song slows down and Toxic plays like it's a power ballad? Holy shit I got chills down my spine and tears in the corners of my eyes, I fucking love music, nothing else can make me feel like this!

Just got DMC5 a few days ago and I'm playing it as Vergil with this song set on loop. It's an absolute blast.

Bro I just cried at the final solo guitar, that was... *SMOKING SEXY STYLE!*

I just assumed I gaslighted myself into thinking you heard this already.

Devil May Cry. A story about a family with two sons born from a union of a human and devil. When the devils came to get revenge on the one who batrayed them they slaughtered the parents. Leaving one child to cast away his demonic side, decrying anything to do with the powers that took away his parents and the other child to lament the weakness of his humanity, doing his best to seek power to no longer be that weak little boy. This is a ballad of the second child.

It's actually just the mother, Sparda was already gone by then and it's a consequence of being pure demon because separating the Demon World from Human World affects him severely.

Dude, never have a seen a jam so natural aside from Steve Vai composing a rock cover for Halo 2's theme over the original Halo theme. This was a joy to watch, and I couldn't help but smile through it all! Well played sir, you've gained a new fan!

This song gives me chills man, what a banger! The fact it's so long and it's not like it's a loop, it's just changing up for 9 minutes is amazing. Also your ability to play by ear even when the guitar stops and it's just voices, even being able to tell what note the voice is in and match it to where it doesn't sound out of place is amazing, from an outside perspective it's like the guitar is just an extension of your being. On the whole I love your play along videos, the extra guitar on top of the song itself makes for some cool renditions.

this is one of the first songs I looked for when I started listening to you

WHAT IN THE FUCKING WORLD DID I HEARD??? THAT WAS AMAZING WOW, I NEED THIS VERSION ON SPOTIFY ASAP

"that was hella sick" *Proceeds to shred a lil impov* I'd love to be able to do that, I'd literally do it all the time

that fucking solo on the crescendo, that was something else. the way you took turns with the original song felt like a duet

6:47 dancing knight sync with the song

I love how you react not only with your commentary but with your absolute shredding. It often feels like relistening to the song for the first time and it's amazing.

The combo of your solo being followed by the song's was so damn good

Your solo is incredible. Props man.

I NEED you to do a full cover of that.

Dude, your shredding blended so well I feel like Ive ascended by how MOTIVATED I feel

6:13 this sounded so good, my god

Justin here. Thanks for doing this! Your videos are awesome. The first video Lawredon showed me was your cover of Lineage of Clan and I was so shocked you hadn’t done Bury the Light yet. So thanks to you and Lawredon for making this happen. The react and jam was great. This was SSS

9:00 your adaption skills are amazing. I heard it all the way through

It's rare that I find such a masterly crafted song like this that still, after several years, still gives me goosebumps everytime I listed to it. Casey goddamn nailed it with this one. Not only this he masterfully crafted the song around Vergil's actual lore, but he also managed to make it a fucking banger. The only thing missing is a cover with your own spin on it. From the glimpse we got from you playing the song, please man, I think I speak for us all, make that cover. Victor's voice and your instrumentals are a mix made in heaven One thing's for sure tho, I think I'll stick around for a while. You're killing it

I don't how you managed but you made this song even more epic than it was with your solo, you absolutely killed it, keep going man, you're an absolute DEMON with the guitar!

that was AWESOME, you went crazy at the end and made a legendarily epic song somehow even more intense and badass

Came for bury the light, stayed for you, I want this overlap please

God DAMN. This is what "reaction content" should be like. Absolutely FIRE

Yo that 3:20 part was just crazy how you add that in. Wish you do a cover on it with that in it

My god, id kill for a version of the song with that solo and a huge chunk of the overlay you got in while listening. I have not felt that kind of thrill from music in a LONG time. It's like I felt the blood in my veins for a moment-- just goddamned superb.

Just when I thought the song couldn’t get any better 😮‍💨, you absolutely killed it for a first listen. Please officially cover this

This Is Real Motivation!!

Hoooooooly shiiiiit, holy shit, holy shit. The fucking flavor you gave this song with your guitar solo was EPPPPIIIIICCCCC, dude. That was fucking WILD. Good shit.

Went absolutely NUTTY on this, good shit bro!

I love how his fingers and body started moving of their own accord upon hearing how epic the song is and decided to add his own flavour of epicness🔥🔥😎(subbed 😉)

9:48 ~ 11:07 fu○○ing awesome guitar duo holy..

damn i love how he plays with it, its even more epic!

I need a remix of this now 😭❤️

dude, i urgently need a cover with this guitar, it was extraordinary

I just realized that metal and Irish music have a lot in common, mainly that they're both simultaneously very energetic and emotional, but also that they're fluid, so a person could just listen to the tune for a beat or two and go "oh I see what you're doing" and then join in. And it sounds amazing!

holy shit this blended so well with the song

He's motivated

10:24 lawredon knows what's up with the devil trigger reference

Man it is incredible to just watch you jam to a song you aren't familiar with. Such a work of art. It was fun to see how you reacted to that key change in the main riff. Nobody is ever ready for that. This is such an incredible song with so much happening

This is how u do a reaction!!! this is nuts bro!!!

Capcom: "About 6 minutes, needs to be dynamically adjustable, and no electric guitars." Casey Edwards: "You have all these RULES and you think they'll save you..."

you made it sound so much cooler with the extra guitar sounds

3:18 GOD DAMN

9:40 onwards was absolutely fire. it's like a solid 2 minutes of eargasm

The absolute skill and mastery that went into this song is on levels that only few can begin to comprehend. It's... Motivational.

Your cover should be on spotify man!

Yo your solo was so sick and went so well with the song's actual solo right next to each other

GoDDAMNNN THAT JAMMING THROUGHOUT THE SONG IS AWESOME I ENJOYED THE RIDE

You're so talented man

Gotta say 8:30 is probably my favorite part, I love how you did your own thing but still accompanied the bridge well, also I find it hilarious how it truly did MOTIVATE you and you had to go on a little shredding session at the end

at 10:15 is when Vergil showing off his new DT mode :Sin Devil Trigger

Beautiful melody cover!

Jesus!!!! This track was already so good. With your added level of depth this is now god tier....You need to make your own cover of this!
