To be more precise this would be the title or prologue theme to Blaster Master. This game was an awesome one from the Nintendo Entertainment System. I wasn’t actually introduced to it until last year by Classy Man over at The Game Heroes, I know it’s crazy… both that I’ve never played it, and that I still play NES games. This is a little different … Continue reading Blaster Master Theme – Electro Rock Version

With the holiday season starting to come to an end I figured its best to post this sooner rather than later. That being said, here’s our rendition of the song Carol of the Bells aka Ukrainian Bell. This song always reminds me of the movie Home Alone. I used pictures from Fail Blog and Epic Fail to make the video for the song and it … Continue reading Christmas Fail – Carol of the Bells Rock Cover
Another week down and another rock cover to share. This week I did the introduction theme to Nintendo game Metroid. It’s a great tune and has a very cool time signature change in the middle. I think that the production on this one turned out really good as well. Although, it’s still no where near the production quality of our new album that’s coming out … Continue reading Metroid Theme Rock Cover
This song I recorded over a year ago and have just never gotten around to making a blog post about it. I actually learned how to play this song back when the TV show was still on the air in the 90’s, back around the same time I was learning how to play guitar. The X-Men Cartoon that ran on Fox Kids every Saturday morning … Continue reading X-Men Cartoon Theme Rock Cover
It has been a busy week so here is another update, this time for a hard rock version of the theme from the Mega Man 3 Snake Man Level! I chose this song because of all the levels in Mega Man 3 (which is by far my favorite Mega Man game) this one was the stage I always beat first whenever I played. In the … Continue reading Mega Man 3 Snake Man Theme Hard Rock Version
Alright so if you’ve never heard of the Desert Bus for Hope Charity here’s the run down. The comedy sketch group Loading Ready Run (http://www.loadingreadyrun.com) from Vancouver Island (Victoria) get together once a year to play the most boring game ever “Desert Bus” in order to raise money for Child’s Play. Child’s Play is a charity organization that brings toys and games into hospitals for … Continue reading Desert Bus for Hope Charity – Plus a Rock Cover

Basically we’re going to be taking songs from our childhood and recording hard rock versions of them with our own arrangements. Right now we’re mostly going to be focusing on video games and tv shows although we have plans to start doing other … Continue reading Mega Man 3 Stage Select Hard Rock Version
While most people are out drinking and having fun on their weekends we’re busy being giant nerds and recording hard rock versions of random things from our childhood. We decided to dive in to the world of the Nintendo this weekend and recorded the Jogging theme from Mike Tyson’s Punch Out. It’s too bad we didn’t have a pink jumpsuit because we could have made … Continue reading Mike Tyson’s Punch Out Hard Rock Style
