Homestuck thread

Tensei just dropped Strife 2, so this gives me an excuse to make a homestuck thread
tenseimusic.bandcamp.com/album/strife-2

>check album
>listening to songs one by one
>get to G4M3 OR D13
>mfw new waifu discovered
>mfw new favorite Homestuck track
>mfw based tensei

And I'm not even halfway through the album yet. This is fantastic.

>The King in Red

>Still no Penumbra Phantasm
Dropped

Why would you want to be here?
What do you ever see here
That doesn't make you feel worse than you do?
And tell me, what's the use of feeling blue?

Why would you want to discuss his
comic that destroyed him?
Why keep up his silly zoo?
Oh, tell me what's the use of feeling blue?

I didn't even think to check the track art
Also The King in Red is GOAT

cool fantroll too

In all seriousness I do hope Toby finishes PP. I half think that he actually scrubbed it of Homestuck callbacks and used it as the music for the final boss of Undertale (both forms), because of how similar those tracks sound to the snippets of PP we've heard.

>non-spidery blue girl

and last track with unique art

>Hussie ruined Karkat so thoroughly that the song couldn't be about him anymore

I got a Caliborn vibe from the song, but I think I can also see it as a pre-shit-Karkat song.

>non-spidery
the track is called arachonofunkia

why doesn't all of it have art
tensei = h a c k

i'm diggin' these bootleg fantroll designs though

That song didn't fit Patti LuPone

Homestuck is a corpse and it stinks

Why do I keep refusing to bury it

Hey buddy at least you didn't come to it completely late to the party. I just got in to it last month...

im so sorry

just one month to the game/epilogue/sbahj masterpiece

"a couple weeks"

on the bright side at least i wasnt around for the inevitable cancer that existed

/hsg/ was a magical place user

4 and 3 days

HSG was actually fun, but be glad you weren't here for bucket spitting and the grey paint fiasco

Anyone have that collage pic of great Caliborn quotes?

At least you didn't get into years ago, been through hiatus after hiatus, engulfed in the tumblr fandom that corrupted you until you shook it off. And when it is updating, you rush to your computer to get your latest hit of Homestuck, or varying quality. This goes on for years. Then, finally, when it closes in on the end, it slowly dawns on you that the pay off is not going to be worth all the build up. That all the characters you enjoyed fell to shit and you almost don't know them anymore. The only reason you still stick around is because you feel an obligation to see this train wreak through to the end.

Well yeah, Karkat can't be a king.

...

Because you never got closure

This isn't even Jade anymore.

PORN NOW

How did you feel about the ending?

andrew hussie ruined my fucking life

...

You're not even Jade anymore.

MEGA WHEN

I consider that a good thing.

...

This gives me hope... but hope is the deadliest of poisons.

We all know what holding unto hope brought to us. It happened to us over and over again and again.

Void Session, Meenahquest, Retcons, Act 7.

We were mortally wounded each time and each time someone held us here. We are ghosts, specters bound by these invisible shackles of desires. Again hope was lit and 4/13, next month disappointment will strike us again. But the worst part is... even knowing all that is going to happen... I can't afford not to care anymore.

Most of this sounds like Sonic Adventure music.

Rouge on the Rox may well be an open homage to Rouge the Bat's stage BGMs, I'm not sure.

But the troll on the song art isn't spider themed or Vriska.

All the songs are based off actual Homestuck characters, the album art is literally who fantrolls.

How are we supposed to know what characters the songs are for when most of the tracks don't have art and the ones that do have fantroll drawings?

From Hiveswap

I'm aware of that, but that user's critcism was that the fantroll they used was a non spidery one.

None of them are Hiveswap trolls.

So that guy really, really likes electric guitar.

Is he like 12?

So what characters are the songs for? There's the obvious ones like G4M3 OR D13 or Aerosoul, but I've got no idea who The King in Red is for. And I guess Unite Division might be a Jack song with all the Black references in it?

The King in Red is a remix of a Karkat song. Heel Girl is a remix of a Jade song.

>Heel Girl

Woah now

>Heel
>like telling a dog to heel

oh wow i just got that

Jade's a dumb dog that has to be trained

Who is aerosoul for? I dont here anything that links it to a breath player

Logically, Erisol.

It doesn't really sound like the character, though. It's more weird Sonic wannabe shit.

I thought it might be Erisol, because of the name but I highly doubt.

This theme is too rocking 4 this guy.

It's also a wrestling joke, referring to literal Heels, or villains, in wrestling, and Heel-face turns, when a hero becomes a villain.

This is a Grimbark Jade theme.

he rules the trolls. 1/3 of the people who do. Jane rules the humans, the dykes rule carapace land and the gays rule consorts

so anyone have the mega yet?

>1/3
So he's not king.

he is. he is the king, he rules the troll kingdom.

oh fuck you're right
good catch!

Wish the rest were this easy

King in Red sounds a lot like Caliborn and I can't even detect the Crustacean remix. It may have been a Karkat song when he first made it but I think he changed his mind.

The king is a monarch, a monarch doesn't share power with two others, especially two humans.

Shut up Karkat

except when the king is married to the 2 others.

The song isn't about Karkat. He has never worn his blood color and never would.

Being a houseslave isn't really marriage.

>married
lol

I mean, the name sounds similar [air-eh_soul] vs [air-oh-soul] but it certainly isnt obvious, and it doesnt sound anything like a previous eridan song, and barely like a sollux song.

Leitmotifs and titles.

Except it is literally a remix of Kaat's theme. It's an alt Universe where Karkat is a relevant character.

They are.
>General
>Rose/Kanaya (title)
>Latula (title quirk)
>Roxy (title)
>???
>Jake (title)
>??? Erisol?
>Spiderbitch 1 and/or 2
>Karkat (unusued Karkat theme)
>Grimbark Jade
>Union Jack (remix of Union Jack theme)
>General

What's hard is that this isn't actually a single themed album, there are direct allusions to Dancestors, A2 Trolls, B1 Kids, and Alpha Kids.

What's Union Jack's original theme?

how is 2 rose/kanaya?

I believe it's unused, like King in Red.

The title references rainbow blood, though the violins suggest Rose. The two are treated as one character at this point anyways.

what i just learned was that cool and new webcomic actually has a music team and they have non-meme songs

stop shilling your reddit comic

...

this, at least shill a good MSPA-derived thing like K6BD

kill 6 bil demons was a fanadventure?

or All Night Laundry?

Pity that Nightfall is dead.

Yep

OFF was too

Payoff for this is gonna be good.

Don't forget Prequel.
Because Kazerad sure has.

So did I.

>miss dogslut

I hear it's Mrs. Dogslut now.

...

Jade's later life back problems.

Wait really?

game or die just made me literally actually cum
god the titles are great but the music is greaterer

homestuck has produced such great content, by influencing other artists

psst kid
wanna kn0w a secret
hsg is still alive
in the deep web

I miss Homestuck

>Hey buddy at least you didn't come to it completely late to the party. I just got in to it last month...

...

There was so much great stuff about it
