Th Black Mages / Nobuo Uematsu

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Nobuo as some of us know, is probably the most known and most talented video game composer of all times. He has composed music for lots of video games (the most known is the final fantasy series). His music is somewhat ELP/Camel influenced.
He has a band called "The Black Mages" which has clearly a prog metal sound. check out "Dancing Mad" if you can from the final fantasy thread. That song is a fusion of classical music, metal, and ELP influenced rocker. Beautiful song. The rest is all melodic metal with loads of synthesizers.

	I really like The Black Mages. The good news is they have been voted on and approved for addition by the prog metal team of special collaborators and I plan on adding them very soon.
