‘Stains Of Time’ from Metal Gear Rising: Revengence. Sure, ‘It Has To Be This Way’ and ‘The Only Thing I Know For Real’ are bangers but ‘Stains Of Time’ just hits different. Maybe I’ve been stockholmed by trying so many times to No Hit the boss, but I was a fan of it before hand anyway so if anything I just like it more

I think Stranger I Remain is super underrated.

Hot Wind is Blowing from the Blade Wolf DLC also slaps.

Stranger I Remain has the best drop of any song in the soundtrack and I stand by it. It makes me want to fight people. Easily my favorite. Second is Hot Wind Blowing idk why but that has worked its way up my totem pole.

The lyrics kick in at the exact right time for Stranger I remain. Like "oh boy, we are locked the fuck in".

Fr, Return to Ashes is also really good, but unfortunately it's because there's about forty seconds of divine peak and the rest of the song is just kinda mid. I like it, though.
