Fantastic and chaotic
This song is fantastic! Extremely powerful, some emotions here and there, and those horns or what ever they are kick-ass!
With all the emotions this song has, you have a real tense feeling involving greatness and combat, or something alike, epicness for sure! At the same time, this song being made for the Audio Portal Deathmatch, it's a good thing that it has this feeling of combat, good job on that! And the instruments in this song, aren't exactly extraordinairy, but give a real epic side to this song, and as for the horns; they are kick-ass. They bring epicness to this piece alone! The power of this song is so strong it seizes you entirely!
So this song is at the same time fantastic, being practicaly flawless, but it's also quite chaotic, I feel a sense of destruction while hearing those great big horns, and that's pretty cool!
For the scene, well it was real hard to get a precise one that goes with it. Before I would only see brief scenes of explosions and detonations... Total chaos... But I finally found something good:
Vietnam, 1963 5:31 P.M.
The battle has barely begun, and chaos is already unleashed. The brave and patriotic soldiers run out to the battlefield, grabbing onto their machine guns, ready to fight. The UH-1 "Huey" helicopters fill the cloudy sky. Chaos sets in when the first mines and bombs start blowing off. Many soldiers lose their lives in those first deadly instants... A helicopter gets hit by a bomb, it's tail is wrecked, the vehicle's doomed. It starts twirling in the sky, falling torwards the ground. A wave of dust covers the soldiers when the UH-1 crashes. Gunshots are heard here and there, back and forth... A soldier is hit, another falls... A wounded soldier falls in a muddy hole, but another comes to rescue him. "Are you okay?" he asks, but when he sees that the bullet has hit near the poor man's heart, he knows the answer... The wounded man takes the soldier's hand and says "Tell my wife, I..." without having time to finish his phrase before death took him away. But the soldier knew exactly what was left to do...
The fight still rages on, and more helicopters fall down, burning in flames and debris... A deadly bunker, set up on a mountain, is just ashes after a smoking UH-1 crashes right in front of it. The stoned bunker bursts into debris, leaving nothing behind... More soldiers die, and not many succeed...
Debris, fire, gunshots, explosions, death... That's what contained the vietnam war...
Hope you liked this, I think I could have done a little better at the end though, tell me what you think!
Merry Christmas my friend,
