Your work on DD has been very influential on my life for the past year. Of all the music in my library of 2300+ MP3s yours has been the most listened-to. Lengthy as this comment is, I feel I owe it to write this down as a testament to how deeply the music appeals to me with everything I've gone through as of late.




For the past year I've worked as a sushi chef, running a bar by myself (Under the direction of my boss who works a 2nd bar in another location). Life is intense as I worked 50-60 hours a week, on 30-40 hours of sleep a week, with no overtime, vacation days, benefits, or paid breaks (breaks mean no work is getting done and thus I have to spend more time at work instead of going home), all for... less than minimum wage, I made $85/day (It's a strange story.) I could elaborate, but for brevity's sake, I won't. Rest assured I lived in near-sweatshop conditions and almost my entire life has been consumed in the maddening monotony of rolling sushi for hours on end, for little reward or purpose. There are numerous other negative happenings in my life, but the unending, mind numbing work makes seconds feel like days and days feel like seconds, driving me insane.


All of the combat (and some non combat) tracks of DD1, DD2, and the DLC have been the soundtrack of my life for the past 11 months. All of the 6+ minute tracks are my favorite as they serve as the perfect background to my grueling workhours due to their length; they seem like symphonies to me that tell a story almost. Here's the value I see in some of the DD2 tracks (using Bandcamp timestamps):

"Foetor Fight"
The song overall has a theme of exhaustion, which resonates with me as I work tirelessly; the slow, constant beating of the drums like the pounding of a tired and weary heart, coupled with the vocals and the brass give a feeling of slow, agonizing suffering. I see some accents of melancholy in the strings and melody, as though the victim is lamenting its pain.
My favorite part is 02:14 when the melody picks up, and the violin seems to cry out in pain, but only gently; as though it wants to scream, but is so exhausted it only comes out as a strained, poor whimper. Its cries are immediately cut off as the drums come in, and the suffering resumes. The song grows more tense until the strings are reintroduced near the end, and the song seems to become more peaceful as it winds down, with the final brass notes signifying what could be described as a "peaceful" end before the cycle restarts at 08:07.

"Sprawl Battle"
People have commented on the melancholic tone of the song, and the somber, ringing notes testify this. Fitting that this is the track that plays as cities are consumed by both fire and hysterical mania; as chaos and destruction is ultimately depressing to witness. This song forces me to reflect on the sad state of my circumstances, watching myself as I suffer and waste away, for almost no gain. My favorite part is 04:20 as the melody crescendos in a very tortured way, with the ringing at 04:35 suddenly becoming very panicked, frenzied in what I would describe as a mental breakdown from trauma-inducing pain, whether physical or psychological (in the case of DD, both). The song becomes more dramatic from this point, and picks up at0 6:04 when the strings become lighter, giving an inspiring feeling. It ends satisfyingly with the strings, which conclude the roller coaster with a more calm tone.

"Conflict in the Tangle"
My appreciation for this song is a bit different, as the song feels more "antagonistic" than the rest, this is emphasized mostly at 03:07 where the melody seems particularly sinister, combined with the chanting/shouting which feel only as though they accentuate the negative forces acting upon me.
The slow, droning notes of the brass evokes madness. The song has a very dizzying feeling to me, which is perhaps why it hits the hardest at the beginning of the day; 5:50 AM, mind in a complete haze from 4 hours of sleep, rushing to get as much work done in 2 hours (Ingredient prep phase), having to fight my own muscles which want to give up. At 02:05 the rapid, shocking notes which are interrupted by near-silence contrast very well with the song's slow tempo, furthering these feelings. The way you can hear chanting in almost every note in the 2nd cycle excellently give off the feel of a slow burning, ever-looming sense of dread.

"The Sluice"
This track is the most unique as it's the fastest, most aggressive, most violent. They say music's rhythm corresponds with and enhances the performance of the body, in which case it makes sense that this song's heavy emphasis on drums makes it so powerful. My absolute favorite part is 05:15 in the second cycle, with the violent and unceasing slamming of the drums and chords. My mind's eye conjures a scene of a battle with combatants covered in mud and blood alike, flashing images of fist and weapon slamming with ferocious rage. The song instills in me an almost primal stubbornness toward adversity, a rage-induced unwillingness to cave in to the grim odds surrounding you. As though your frustration from insurmountable stress bears in you a desperate urge to fight back, to dominate the stress in retaliation.

"Battle of the Mountain"
This track is my "favorite" inasmuch as I have the most emotional attachment to it, with its climactic and dramatic themes. It makes sense that this song plays in the shrine of reflection, as the characters are forced to confront their past traumatic burdens - their mistakes, their failures, their wrongdoings, flaws, weaknesses, afflictions, losses, sufferings, everything that makes life horrible. The song opens with the shriek of the violins at 00:50 which sound pained, terrified, along with the singular petrifying strike of the drum every 1/8th beat (if I understand time signatures correctly,) setting the tone for how tense, how high stakes, how desperate, despaired, panicked, agonized, the song wants you to feel.
My favorite part is any part that has the choirs singing, as for me high-pitched choir singing signifies nobility, goodness, positivity, the light amidst the darkness, the only instrument which cheers you on. The entirety of 01:00-04:00 would be the best example. This deeply resonates me as I personally have been forced to confront the worst parts of my life every single day of work - I've made a good deal of mistakes earlier in life, and you reap what you sow: my own cowardice and sloth of years past have directly and indirectly caused all of the suffering under this job.
I will not go into detail - as my intention with this post is not to display how much of a drama queen I am, but to express my gratitude and appreciation for your work - but my family has a lot of personal issues and I feel I've failed to help them in the past years, letting these problems fester. And now, during most workhours those deeply rooted problems began to rear their ugliest faces toward me, haunting me in the back of my head as I am tormented under the nihilistic hopelessness of my fruitless job. It is as though I am being punished or put through purgation for my failures, as though I cast myself into this hell and now I must desperately claw my way out of it lest everything I care for fall to ruin.
It is for this reason that this song's rollercoaster of climaxxing melodies, its shocking notes, its progression from horror to hope to desperation, feel so real to me. It instills in me a feeling destiny, as though I must confront the worst horrors in life, I must stare despair in the face, I must endure the fire I am being put through, to find any semblance of salvation.
Perhaps this is why I resonate with the themes of Darkest Dungeon as a whole, as it tells a story of flawed heroes, burdened not only with the weight of the world, or the suffering of their journey, but also with themselves, their failures, their desire to give up, to cave in to their fear, despair, and sorrow - these things they must fight against if they are to have any peace.
Every second of this song is packed with meaning, with context, with setting, and numerous emotions, the dimmest but most noticeable being hope.
The only issue I have with the song is that it ends a bit anti-climactically, but this is justified with how the song is structured and I supplement it by listening to "All Things Must Come" immediately after.

I could drone on for many more songs in the DD1+2 soundtrack, but these are the most influential in how I've developed in these chaotic months. I wish I could say something artful about "The Shroud of the Deep", but it was not on my phone's MP3 at the time. When the song was released in May, I was going through immense personal fallout with my friends who were being torn apart by particular drama and infighting, to the point that I lost them all, so the song has a feeling tragedy, of fighting against stomach-churning despair and death which seek to claim everything you care for. I love the melody and the instruments used in this song, it's one of my favorites as of late.
As of writing this post it's officially been a full year since I got this sushi chef job, and a full month since I got fired from it - for wearing headphones, nonetheless. They (poorly) claim it was an OSHA violation + it interfered with customers, but I digress. I could've taken them off, I could've gotten wireless earphones, but I chose not to. This soundtrack added so much meaning to my life, contextualized and helped me to understand and appreciate the suffering that permeates life so infinitely. It helped me to stay sane.
If there is anything to take away from this post it is that I consider every song to be deeply cathartic (Save for "Conflict in the Tangle", I appreciate that one a bit differently.) to use very dramatic language, its themes of grim darkness, uncertainty, despair, danger, suffering, etc serve to accentuate those same feelings I had during the job. It feels as though the music "sympathizes" with my misfortune and plights, understands them. This is the reason it felt insulting, humiliating, demoralizing even to listen to the supermarket radio while I slaved away - pop music does not make a good background for suffering.
I may be a drama queen but the music helped me to feel how "real" everything is, the severity of my situation, my stress, everything. I enjoy living every moment of life to its fullest, including the moments of fear, anger, sorrow, and pain. In this sense my dramatic and existential language is not inappropriate or unrealistic - I merely desire to experience every facet of life completely, the good and the bad.
My life is very unusual (I'm a special snowflake btw) and misfortunate, but I genuinely do love life. I don't know what's in store for me, but I am a Christian and I do have a strong sense of destiny, which is both a reason why I add so much meaning to these songs + another vector of suffering the past year, as my spiritual life had fallen into disarray, causing much emotional distress and alarm internally. I also had to deal with the stress of moving whilst working 10 hours a day, but I digress. My only hope is that not all of the suffering I had gone through this past year was in vain, that it at least had profited me something worthwhile. I've certainly changed a lot as a person, and I think this is due at least a little in part to your music and its unique feelings of both hope and suffering combined in most of the songs.

I wish I had wrote this earlier when the chances of you reading this were higher, in any case I thank you for your work on this franchise. It may seem embarrassing that I pour so shamelessly all of my emotions into a single comment on a videogame soundtrack video, but that's exactly why I did it. I'm generally a stoic man, and I do not express my emotion often if at all. This is likely why I was able to stomach the suffering so long, and why the music affects me on such a deep level. I had to express what the music means to me, personally.

God bless you and anyone reading this, I hope things go well in your life, and that should any suffering happen upon you, that you are able to turn it into something good.
