Im not sure if any of you have heard of these guys. They are a band that plays video game music. minibosses.com I was supposed to go see them play about a week ago but I did'nt get a chance to go. You guys should check them out. If you plan on downloading any of there songs might I suggest the following...

Contra
Castlevania 1 & 2
and Im not sure if it's on there site or on Napster but download there Super Mario Bros. 2 song.

Let me know what ya guys think

Another random post from your friendly neighborhood zero

Yeah, these guys are pretty cool.

They also do:

-G.I. Joe The Movie: The vocals are horrid, but makes anyone nostalgic

-Metroid: They cover Kraid's theme and the beginning theme which is just awesome.

-Zelda: Classic and they don't stray far from the original

-Mike Tyson's Punchout: They cover the "in match" song and the tune that plays over when Little Mac gets knocked out. Hopefully they'll cover the best tune when Little Mac jogs by the Statue of Liberty.

-Rygar: Decent but not one of my faves.

-Ghost and Goblins: Real short(about a minute) and again not one of my faves.

-Wizards and Warriors- Really cool with an awesome intro.

-Castlevania: This is their best. Covers the first 3 level themes in reverse.

If your a big Street Fighter fan hit up Napster for Street Fighter and any other charachters name. The two I think kick the most arse are Ken, Ryu, and Guile. When looking up these tracks make sure in the title of the track it states (REAL Music). Keeping with the feel of Castlevania since you said that was your favorite track, look up some of the Konami remixes on Napster as well the two to look for are "Vampire Killer (the castlevania theme). and "Bloody Tears(Castlevania 2 theme). Also if im not mistaken the Punch-Out theme is not done by the Minibosses but another band by the name of Risc.

Oh and before I forget try looking up the techno remix for Mega Man 2. thats a darn good song

All hail the Minibosses!!

My fav's are Castlevania 1,2, Wizards and Warriors, and Metroid, some serious guitar playing there

I would love to see these guys live but I live too far away =(

The Minibosses still rock.

The Residents have been known to perform these live since the mid 80's. Always a delight to hear any band, nowadays especially, paying homage to the video game greats.
