System 8 years 7 months ago Posts: 74809	i know there was already a thread about this but it's deep down there somewhere, i can think of some more... the metal band Children of Bodom has some keyboard solos that sound Nintendo-ish... not really a fan of them, their songs tend to get repetitive, but the keyboards do sound cool The Birthday Massacre, a female-fronted goth band from Canada... they also have symphonic keyboards that at times sound like the music of Zelda or Final Fantasy

NESkimos, The Advantage, The Mini-Bosses but they're Nintendo cover bands I guess.

System 8 years 7 months ago Posts: 74809	LOL! Your right! I just checked it out as well. My brother ripped em off limewire for me awhile ago so maybe you should try there if you can't find anything by them. EDIT: Thanks for the link, dude! Always cool to have someone to exchange NES cover band song information with.
