Yeah, just stumbled upon it as recommendation - no idea why. I do tend to look for a bit weirder covers of songs, especially in that trend of making them sound as if they were made in medieval times (though to be honest, most don't actually sound really like what music sounded like in medieval times - Farya Faraji has some nice videos on that), so maybe that's why it popped up in recommendations, being a bit unusual cover. Anyway, glad you liked it, IIRC you are fan of DOOM, so I thought this would be right right your alley. |
You have a good memory.
I enjoy lots of covers of game tunes myself, but that one certainly ranked in among the most awesomely creative I've seen yet. Nice find!
One of my own favorite covers of game tunes from that era has been "the theme of shut-in Samus", which is the most relaxing version of the music from Brinstar's Underground Depths in Super Metroid that you'll ever hear. The general atmosphere of Super Metroid is one of danger and isolation. This reimagining takes the isolation aspect and makes it feel safe and comfortable the way it sometimes really does in my heart. I won't actually embed the video because it doesn't fit the rock theme of this thread. Here though is a rock version that I certainly will embed:
There are a number of excellent rock covers of Super Metroid's soundtrack out there, in fact. Here's an incredible metal remix of the main theme, for instance:
