The Death of God's Will
The Death of God’s Will is a song made for the video game Ultrakill. Opening with introspection, we hear the words of the angel Gabriel, recounting the journey through hell. His voice builds, as he recounts the actions of our player character with perfect hatred. The drawl of pipe organs slowly rises as Gabriel's righteous fury burns, until it stops. “My hands shall relish, ending you, here and now!” Then, metal cuts in as the rugged fury of guitars mixes with the tranquil rage of the pipe organ, as synths blend it together. When Gabriel speaks, the instruments fall into discord. The choir enters, cementing this song as Argent Waltz instead of Argent Metal, due to vocalizations in Latin rather than Sumerian. The instruments get more intense as the choir is replaced with synths. Then the track glitches, symbolizing Gabriel being cut down, before ending with a final blast of the pipe organ. Gabriel delivers his Act 2 monologue, before departing. The rest is reflective piano, slowly descending into nothing. -Bram Cass
