RWBY Fan Song: What I’m Sorry For

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here, hope you like this one. It was a fun go! This is a Raven fan song, obviously and it’s about Yang. It’s been posted for a while now over on YouTube, but I only just got around to posting it here as well. Please don’t forget to like and subscribe. Thanks everyone!

Lyrics are in the video. I did my best to encompass all that Raven’s personality had to offer when it comes to her conflicting emotions and the way she views the concept of family. I’d like to think I did her some level of justice, but let me know what you think.

First Night, Last Chance – A Resident Evil 2 Fan Song of Duty, Loss, and Survival

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here. I Finally got a Resident Evil 2 fan song that I really like, this thing took me FOREVER to do, and I’m sorry about that honestly… but, getting the feel of the song wasn’t as easy as one might expect lyrically… I think I bashed my pens upon my notebooks for about a week and a half of scrapped lyric attempts before I got something I actually liked.

The lyrics are in the video, if you want to read them. The goal with this song was to really hone in on the overall feel of Leon’s “rookie cop” days and how it kind of all fell apart before it even began. Later games show us what he ends up becoming, but I wanted to go back to his Resident Evil 2 origin story.

I wanted listeners to think back to their first attempts at the game (both the origional RE2 and the Remake) and step into the chaos of Raccoon City. I hope that with First Night, Last Chance that vision becomes possible. This Resident Evil 2 fan song is told from Leon Kennedy’s perspective, and I personally think it’s offers a haunting blend of emotion, duty, and survival, capturing the terror and tragedy of his first night on the force.

Also, his last chance to escape… a nod to Jill’s statements in Resident Evil 3’s game (the original, not the remake).

Well, that’s all for now. If you like the song, seriously like the song on YouTube, subscribe to the channel, and I’ll see you next time. This has been Kern of The Demented Ferrets, where stupidity is at its finest and level grinds are par for the course.

Final Fantasy (NES) Review (1987)

I’m coming at you with a game review of Final Fantasy. Yep! We need to go back to where it all started. These days the game is kind of messy and doesn’t hold up the way slightly later titles do, but let’s not judge it too harshly… it did after all save Square Soft’s butt…

RWBY Fan Song: Pieces Won’t Fit

Leave a comment

Since Kresh and I just got out of the Emerald Forest plot line in “Subjecting Kresh to RWBY”, I really wanted to do a tribute to their earliest most chaotic days when they do nothing but argue and fail to have that team synergy we all know and love. The song is from Glynda’s perspective. I hope you like this one!

The lyrics are in the video for this one, so I’m not going to type them all out here. The song is also on Patreon for those who help support our content! There is a lot moreover there to check out too, if you want to! The same goes with our Youtube.

Singing in the Shadows: A Fan’s Musical Journey Through The Dark Pictures Anthology

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here. You know, there’s something incredibly stirring about playing through a lovingly curated anthology of games, and that’s what the Dark Pictures Anthology is all about…. and that’s why we did a fan album for the series.

So, here I am, headphones warmed on and lights dimmed, sinking into our YouTube fan song anthology for The Dark Pictures Anthology. You’ll get a little bit of everything. We’ve got a fan song for Man of Medan, Little Hope, House of Ashes, and The Devil in Me, and as the first notes ignite, I’m reminded of just how deeply these games’ soundtracks cut into my soul… Kresh did an amazing job spearheading this one.

Walking Through Each Game with Music as Your Guide

  • Man of Medan – The sharp, metallic clang in this song hits like a cold wave. The nautical isolation of the SS Ourang Medan, the tension, the claustrophobic dread… yeah, you can hear all of that.
  • Little Hope – The haunted woods, spectral apparitions, and a sense of trapped time — the music here takes on a mournful, almost distant quality, weaving uncertainty into every note.
  • House of Ashes – Tribal drums, ancient ruins, and alien horrors blend into something primal and foreboding. The anthology’s song choices capture that descent into the unknown.
  • The Devil in Me – There’s glitzy horror lurking beneath the surface. Synths and dissonance echo the hotel’s twisted corridors, paired with a manic and unsettling undertone that mirrors the game’s macabre slasher homage.
  • O Death – You didn’t think we’d ignore a rendition of this one, did you? HA! Yeah right, this one was the shocker of the fan album, and it’s probably my favorite one.

Well hopefully you’ll like this fan anthology. We sure did have a lot of fun making it… and shout out to Kresh who busted her ass on this thing.

Deeper Still – A Silent Hill 2 Fan Song (James POV | Dark Alt Rock)

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here, a massive fan of the Silent Hill and Resident Evil games. This song is my first dalliance into the Silent Hill 2 fan music world.

It began with a question: What if James Sunderland sang the truth?

So, yeah… “Deeper Still” is a dark alternative rock fan song told from James’s point of view, inspired by the tragic In Water ending of Silent Hill 2. I aimed for raw emotion, urgent pacing, and haunting guitars. Hopefully, if I’ve completed my ambition you’ll think this track captures the moment where grief, guilt, and final acceptance all come crashing down.

This isn’t just a tribute, it’s meant to be James’s confession set to music. No redemption. Just a man, a lake, and the weight he can’t swim out from.

Lyrics:
[Verse 1] I drove through the fog like a ghost in a frame Your voice in a letter… still calling my name. But you’re gone, aren’t you? Long before I arrived This town’s just a mirror, and I’m barely alive. The bed was too quiet, the air far too thin I watched you fading, again and again You asked for mercy… and I shut the door Now I hear that silence louder than before.

[Pre-Chorus] There’s no white light, no guiding flame Just the echo of your voice, and the weight of shame.

[Chorus] So I sink beneath the waterline Let it pull me down, erase this crime No absolution, no soft goodbye Just rusted stars in a blackened sky I breathe you in, I feel you still But you don’t speak… and I go deeper still.

[Verse 2] I met reflections, all fractured and blind Each one a question I tried to unwind Their pain, their rage, their broken grace Were all just pieces of my face She looked like you, she moved like sin But she wasn’t you, she was what’s within I chased a ghost, I called it love But love’s not meant to draw blood.

[Pre-Chorus] I built this cage, I made this bed Now I lay in it, and drown instead.

[Chorus] So I sink beneath the waterline Let it pull me down, erase this crime No halo waits, no wings, no light Just you and me in endless night I whisper low, the world stands still As I fall… deeper still.

[Bridge] “Mary… I’m sorry. I loved you… but I was so tired. I don’t deserve the surface anymore.”

[Final Chorus ] So I sink beneath the waterline Let the guilt become the brine One last breath, then nothing more No judgment, just the lake and lore The road is gone, I’ve had my fill… And I sink… deeper still.

Well, that’s about all for me for now. This has been Kern from The Demented Ferrets, where stupidity is at its finest and level grinds are par for the course. See you next time.

Hold Onto The Flame – Original Song from Fallen Angels in Limelight

Leave a comment

Hey all coming at you with another song from the mastermind of Kresh. Using our FAIL band, she made this song for me during a very dark time in my life. For those of you who read the blog post of how my mother passed away, you’ll know how difficult that was for me.

Hold onto the Flame was one of the songs Kresh made to comfort me at the time and now I share it here with all of you. Due to the nature of this song, I’m just going to drop it here, and leave it at that.

RWBY Fan Song: A Pair of Roses (White Rose) Tribute

Leave a comment

This project is a combo between Kresh and I. I wrote the lyrics, and Kresh got the sound we wanted out of the AI we use. I thought it was only fitting that this project featuring the dynamic White Rose duo get star treatment from the Demented ferrets duo that work on the songs on our channel (Kresh and I).

If you like her sound, check out her music, and Fallen Angels in Limelight too… seriously, if you like this, I’m sure there are others that you’ll just love.

I absolutely love these characters and what they bring to the table. Ruby and Weiss are a really strong partnership duo in the series, and for this song I tried to hone in on that as much as possible.

Lyrics:

Verse 1: Side by side, we stand in the fray, You hold your ground, I rush ahead each day. A partner’s trust in every move, In the quiet moments, our hearts improve. Through the storm, we find our pace, Your steady hand, my wild race. A glance, a word, a simple sign, In the silence, we both align.

Pre-Chorus: In every strike, in every fight, You’re the calm, I’m the silver light. We stand as one, together we rise, With every challenge, we meet each surprise.

Chorus: We move in rhythm, the world untold, Silver and ice, a story unfolds. No need for words, yet we understand, A connection felt, without command. The rush of speed, the grace you show, Together, a bond that continues to grow.

Verse 2: Your strength in silence, my heart’s desire, You steady the storm, I fuel the fire. Your blade, a cut so cold and true, And I’m the spark, igniting through. In the quiet of night, we find our way, A team, a partnership, come what may. Through every battle, we hold our ground, In each other’s presence, we are found.

Pre-Chorus: In every strike, in every fight, You’re the calm, I’m the silver light. We stand as one, together we rise, With every challenge, we meet each surprise.

Chorus: We move in rhythm, the world untold, Silver and ice, a story unfolds. No need for words, yet we understand, A connection felt, without command. The rush of speed, the grace you show, Together, a bond that continues to grow.

Bridge: In the glance of an eye, in the sound of a breath, We find what words fail to express. The bond we share, unspoken, true, A thread that ties me close to you.

Chorus: We move in rhythm, the world untold, Silver and ice, a story unfolds. No need for words, yet we understand, A connection felt, without command. The rush of speed, the grace you show, Together, a bond that continues to grow.

Outro: Silver and ice, we stand as one, Two halves of a whole, with battles won. Side by side, we’ll always be, The rush of the storm, the calm of the sea.

That’s about it for me for now, everyone. This has been Kern, of The Demented Ferrets. Where stupidity is at its finest and level grinds are par for the course. Hey, check out some of our other links. If you like what we do, leave a like and subscribe to our content, thanks!

Final Fantasy Fan Song – Epic Six!!!

Leave a comment

Hey classic RPG lovers, it’s Kern here! If you grew up casting spells, saving on Slot 1, and grinding EXP in Marsh Cave, then this fan song is made for you. “The Epic 6” is a nostalgic, 8-bit-inspired tribute to the original Final Fantasy (FF1). This original song retells the journey of the Warriors of Light; Fighter, Thief, Monk, White Mage, Black Mage, and Red Mage. Together they rise from humble beginnings in Cornelia to face legendary trials and save the world.

Lyrics:
Do-do-da-da, do-do-da-da…
Awaken the world with pixel fists of fate.

We rose from Cornelia, six blades in the sun,
The Fighter stood fearless, the journey begun.
The Thief dashed quick through the shadow and light,
While the Monk crushed stone with bare-knuckle might.
The White Mage prayed with a staff held high,
The Black Mage sparked like a fire in the sky.
Red Mage walked in with a sword and a spell,
All roads were open, all fates to quell.

We are the Epic 6, forged in quests and tricks,
From pixel plains to burning bricks.
We level, we clash, we cast, we fight, In the 8-bit dawn, we burn so bright.
Together we rise, together we fall, With blades and books, we answer the call.
We’re the Epic 6, forever bold, In a world of myth and dungeons old.

We crossed the seas on pixel tides,
Through marsh and cave where darkness hides.
A crown was stolen, a fiend awoke,
We fought with hope and worn-out cloaks.
A bridge was built, a world unlocked,
We stormed the keep where monsters stalked.

Step by step, and fight by fight,
We earned each point of stat and might.
Save on slot one, don’t forget to rest,
A tent by moonlight, then on to the quest.
Elixirs rare and gold so thin,
But XP flows where hearts begin.
We met the king of dragons, eyes aglow,
A trial of worth in the fire below.
He saw our strength, our journey true,
And said, “Now rise… become renewed!”

The Fighter turned Knight with a holy blade,
The Thief to Ninja; fast, unafraid.
The Monk found peace and the Master’s grace,
The Mages rose to wizard’s place.

We are the Epic 6, reborn through grit and clicks,
From byte-sized dreams to warlord tricks.
With shining spells and power unfurled,
We face the Four Fiends, we’ll save the world.
Together we burn, together we shine,
Our fate was forged in crystal design.

We’re the Epic 6, hear the tale,
Of heroes born from an 8-bit trail.
In the data of dreams and the dawn of the fight,
The Epic 6 march through pixels and light.

Mach 20 Misfits: Alt-Rock Anthem Inspired by Assassination Classroom

Leave a comment

Hey all, it’s Kern here, coming at you with a fan song for Assassination Classroom. The anime is an older one at this point. It came out back in 2015, so it’s been a bit of time. That being said, it’s one of the anime I still really like a lot and I wanted to do a fan song for it.

Ever felt like the world wrote you off before you even had a chance to speak? “Mach 20 Misfits” is our alt-rock love letter to the underdogs; the students of Class 3-E from Assassination Classroom, who were thrown away by the system, only to rise stronger under the unlikeliest of teachers.

This track brings together gritty guitar riffs, raw vocals, and a cinematic choir that captures the spirit of rebellion, transformation, and heart. Inspired by the emotional depth and chaotic brilliance of anime like Assassination Classroom, this rock anthem channels that inner fight and the push against failure, the pain of growth, and the bond between outcasts who finally find their spark.

If you’re into high impact, anime-inspired alt rock with epic builds and a choir that punches through the noise, this one’s for you. We wanted this song to feel like what it means to stand on the edge of everything, knife in hand, heart wide open, and still choose to become something more. Turn it up loud. Scream it out. This is rebellion.

Until next time everyone, this has been Kern of The Demented Ferrets, where stupidity is at its finest and level grinds are par for the course.
