If any of you play video games, you'll know that the Final Fantasy franchise is quite famous for its awesome soundtracks composed by Nobuo Uematsu. Well he got a real band together, called themselves The Black Mages and they recorded a lot of the music from the games with a full band with Mr. Uematsu on keyboards, and let me tell you its very proggy! very awesome, I adore Mr. Uematsu, quite the accomplished keyboardist. ------------- "I'm in a freefall like a snowflake falling down down down down down." |

It's great stuff... it's prog/power, and I love it! One day, I was kinda spacing out, and didn't realize what I was listening to, and I thought "Holy (edited), this is INSANELY good progressive power metal, who ARE these guys!?"  ------------- https://soundcloud.com/erin-susan-jennings" rel="nofollow - Bedroom guitarist".

That's really awesome did they get any cds out or are they just for the game? And which games are the songs played on? ------------- The weak dress in hatred to hide their fear.. |

They're metal covers of songs from the Final Fantasy games. I think they've done a few songs from each of 6 through to 10, but maybe there are more. The actual songs on the games are more midi-like, more orchestral-sounding and more repetitive. ------------- It's only knock and knowall, but I like it... |
