Elden Ring has a lot of factors lying within itself that make it one of the best AAA Video Game titles to ever be produced. The art style, direction, story, and music along with many other factors are what makes the game so intriguing.
However, it looks like one of those factors, the music, might have been a little too daunting for everybody’s favorite Post Malone. While it has been known that Malone is quite the gamer himself, he has revealed in the past how he is scared of the audio tracks in Elden Ring and has to turn them off every time he plays the game.
In an interview done back in May 2022 Via First We Feast, the star revealed a few things about himself, however, one fact that stood out from the rest is what Post Malone thinks about Elden Ring and other video games alike.
Why Is Post Malone Afraid Of The Music In Elden Ring
The soundtrack of Elden Ring, designed by Tsukasa Saitoh, Shoi Miyazawa, Tai Tomisawa, Yuka Kitamura, and Yoshimi Kudo is nothing but a masterpiece within itself. However, the complexity and the composition of the music can come off as daunting and terrifying for some, which seems to be the case for Post Malone.
Talking about his experience with the music of Elden Ring, Malone said:
“I turn the music all the way off because it is insane. It’s literally like choirs, not of angels, of demons. And they’re like, ‘We’re going to f*** you up.’ There’s no way you live“
While the music can come off as frightening, it complements the theme and the gameplay of Elden Ring completely. FromSoftware, the developer studio, has always had amazing soundtracks for players to experience as they immerse in the games. This can be easily observed in the other games of the studio, such as Dark Souls, and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.

Post Malone also did not hesitate to state that how he might not like the music of Elden Ring but has loved music from other video game titles, such as Skyrim, The Legend of Zelda, Mario Bros., and more.
Why Elden Ring Soundtrack Is Truly The Best
As mentioned before, the music of Elden Ring might not be for everyone as it can come off as a little daunting, as seen in the case of Post Malone. However, no doubt stays in the fact that it remains one of the best audio productions ever done for a video game title.
This is proven by the fact that Elden Ring was nominated for Best Music as well as Best Audio Design awards at The Game Awards 2022. And while it did not end up winning these awards, it did become Game of the Year 2022, redeeming itself.
