For those who dont know, Megadriver is a Brazilian heavy metal band which makes remixes of video game tunes. Their next album will focus on Shmups, so they're asking for music suggestions.

Also they do a monster version of Top Gear tunes and Phantasy Star IV's title music.

Some Tsukumo metal arrangements would be awesome. They could also do a cover of GO FAI!!

Oh shit!

Their last album "Metalvania" was pure gold. Can it be topped? I doubt it...but I'm psyched.

Holy crap. I didn't know they did this. Is it on any of their albums? I think I have them all downloaded. Even some songs they took off of their site.
But I don't recall this one.

This is a good version as well. Tries to stick more to the video game sound.
I prefer this one, honestly. Not as heavy as MD's, but it doesn't bend the notes when it gets to the...umm...musical version of a chorus. :lol:
I'm not good with musical terms.

They got a cool Sonic shaped guitar!
I should try to see them live when they come to Rio de Janeiro.

I'm very partial to the Gillius shaped guitar! I watched them live once in my city, it was rainy but was totally worth it!
