A list of everything IMPORTANT in Mystic Crystal
The intro guitar riff, reminiscent of Def Leppard
The Synth leads sweeping in, raising octaves
The subtle synth effects playing in the intro
The single piano note playing in the left speaker in the first segment
"Magic, or some shit like that"
Not too much Sex, but Just Enough to make it Classic Sexy NSP
"Not a single blow was struck, alas for he was strong as fuck"
Lead vocals switching to Vocal layering when the king and the wizards are speaking, and then both combining.
"Is that a Mystic Space Portal behind you? OH SHIT--"
The beginning of the 3rd segment with NSP arriving, starting with a jangly acoustic riff, Extremely reminiscent of 2112's 3rd segment, when the Guitar is found.
The Drum solos!! The fucking drum solos dude, Havve Hogan is a god
the GUITAR SOLO, Phobos, another god
"twas clear his domain was evil as dick"
Mount Nasty, and the fields of annoyance
"then they ran straight away, for they gave not a shit"
The harmonies building during the repetition of the Bells of Doom bit
The beautiful segment beginning with NSP entering the Crystal Cave
The vocal layering with "then I heard a voice, in my mind", and the harmonies kicking in with "Danny your Heart is Kind"
THE DRUMS and TEMPO INCREASING WITH "Only Light can stop Dark" . LIKE A FUCKING ANTHEM ITS GORGEOUS
FUCK THIS PART IS GORGEOUS
Ninja Brian being a Good Friend
Danny saying "totes broken"
The Princess carrying Danny to the castle
the delay between "Heal this man wizards he cried with delight.... Which they did... Goddamn,,, they keep their magic game tight
The high note, ending "Hurrag for Ninja Sex PartAYYY"
THE ENDING SEGMENT BEING BEAUTIFUL AF
Danny hitting using lower register in the end
the jump in octave with his "We walked away"
Brian killing a guy, real quick to make sure he maintained his rep
The 'rock the fuck on' motif now used in a plethora of nsp songs, Very good stuff.
The ending segment's piano and acoustic guitar set up is beautiful.
Props to Brian and TWRP for incredible instrumentation
Props to Danny for amazing vocal delivery
Extremely reminiscent of 2112 and A Farewell to Kings, Extremely Rush-like.
ALSO, The blue bass has made a return, in the cover art.
