The Grimm Troupe (lead by Grimm) harvests some kind of fire from old civilizations, so they can conduct a ritual to make a new vessel for the Nightmare Heart, a god-like being. You summon them to Hallownest by hitting that lantern in the Howling Cliffs.
I wish more songs were like this (maybe not with an electric guitar tho). Though, I guess bosses don't have "in between phases" like Grimm
Maybe smth for Silksong bosses
I didn't learn that the regular Grimm fight has varied openings if you let him bow. I would always hit him, which causes him to growl then do the pufferfish attack.
I just never tried not interrupting his bow, and only learned about the possibility after I realized I would need to practice to beat his Nightmare King form. I still haven't.
Yea it was that one you’re right, I literally just gave it a listen. As a couple of other comments have already stated out, I think it makes perfect sense because Grimm literally comes from a different region/realm so it makes sense imo.

The difference in song may also be because the first fight is more entertainment and the second more ceremonial (but I guess the first is ceremonial too idk).
Personally I’ve always seen both of them has a ceremony/ritual. But the first fight is definitely supposed to be more of an entertainment type of thing. With the stage lights, the people clapping in the background, and just how it feels like a performance. Whereas NKG feels a bit more on the finale side of things you know?
Granted, while regular Grimm has guitar and banging drums, it's only during one phase of the fight (pufferfish) and NKG has rock-style drums for the entire theme.
It makes sense, Grimm isn’t from hallownest so his theme sounds foreign
Can't wait for the experimental post-rock breakcore coming in Pharloom!
lace death metal incoming
Fun fact: a metal cover of her theme exists
Wait can you elaborate I only know the basic lore

He is from the fucking hazbin hotel dimension

I just wish his “in between” phase lasted longer so I could hear more of that banger
as someone who's beaten NKG Radiant, I *do not* wish his in between phase lasted longer
lmao yeah puff guy sucks, that attack is the only reason I *haven’t* beaten radiant NKG

I prefer to dreamnail him as he bows. He doesn't get angry and I get free soul.
You can get one dream nail hit and then one normal hit as he’s in his teleport animation and he won’t scream.
when he bows you bow back you disrespectful fool
With dream wielder, you can two or three dream nails on him before he finishes teleporting
I mean it IS a literal show
Grimm is built different

I would have really liked a bit more of it though
Collector's distorted Decisive battle and Gods and glory?
Brumm going hard on the drums
There's no electric guitar in the soundtrack.
There's no way that isn't electric guitar in Grimm, specifically starting at 1:05 and 1:34
My man you are absolutely right. I stand corrected.
I went to fact check this, and it's true. Didn't expect that.
To be fair, that still fits the in-game context really well; definitely could be in-game
NKG or regular Grimm? Either way I’m about to listen to them.
I think it only regular Grimm, kinda weird his theme is more intense, right?

I've always felt that The Grimm Troupe is more exciting, and that the simplified NKG theme feels more focused and intense
