Need help remembering arcade game

Post by rugal »

I am trying to find a certain vertical shooter I used to play when I was just a kid. I think you controlled a sort of plane, not a spaceship, and I can remember a stage in a desert with a huge boss at the end. The fact that is very special, and can help to find the title of this game, is that when the stage boss appears, a vocal track starts, with a very high pitch voice, something like AcDc. Is there anyone who knows the name of this shmup? Thanks in advance.

Yes yes I know it. Its that heavy metal soundtrack game. Real girl wailing with a thrashy track at each Boss. Dammit....the name will come to me....

EDIT - The name is bugging me :evil: . We used to laugh at the Boss Metal track when it was in the Crystal Rooms arcade back in the day. Its not a good shoot'em up, just a laugh for that 'novel' track. I rediscovered it on Mame a while back...but the name... :idea:

Wait WAIT, METAFOX is .....HA!
