Being on SH we are gamers. We've played games and had the tunes stuck in our heads. From the Mario 1-1 to FFVII One Winged Angel. Well lately Ive been listening to VG cover bands mainly The Megas. I was linked a remix of Airmans theme but a twist i was not expecting was there were lyrics added to the song. Its a very interesting song to hear the reason Airman is so pissed off is because how alone he is. Then the Quickman theme was neat to listen how he thinks of him self as a sheriff and has a quick draw with Megaman. Bubblemans theme is about how he sees himself as a useless robot master and uses the chance to fight megaman he is not as useless as all the other robot masters see him.

Another Band similar to this is Game Over. Im sure more of you heard of this band as I see there are customs of Little Mac's Confession. It has more of a metal feel compared to Megas and the lyrics are just as good.

Wile we are talking about Megaman and Punch Out we have to bring out Duane And Brando. Its more of a VG Hip Hop style of music but funny and entertaining to listen too

Anyone know any bands that are lyrical based that covers video games like the ones mentioned above?

The Mini-Bosses first and foremost.
And some nerdcore artists cover some video game stuff, not in their beats, but more in their lyrics.

I thought the Minibosses did pure covers not lyrical stuff if were gonna talk about covers I would have brung up Megadriver, Powerglove, Advantage, SSH, NES-kimos (sp?) and other bands like that.

PROJECT CHAOS

An entire remix of Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Absolutely amazing. Some of it is dance/techno, while some are Metal/Rock.

Also, i didnt see this shown here, so i thought i would mention OCRemix

An entire website dedicated to remixing videogame music


Oh, and finally, you guys might like MegaDriver. Brilliant Extreme Heavy Metal Remixes.
