This is a 4-piece band that seems to do covers of 8-bit songs in general.
I just heard a few excerpts from tracks of theirs on last.fm (their last.fm page) and was very impressed. really tallented drummer and nice guitar playing.
Something worth checking out.

i think there was just a thread about this. yep
anyway, yeah, they're pretty cool. i'm really not a fan of video game music in particular, but they do some interesting stuff.

oops! :) still not used to the search facility functioning.
and yes, for once, i agree 100% with what you say about their music :) i don't particularly like 8-bit stuff either, couldn't even tell that's what they were doing when i listened to their samples. interesting though, yes. glad i came across them.
another gem from last.fm :)

my favorite is definitely marble madness.
there are actually quite a few bands like this in the states (that perform only video game music). i'm under the impression that the advantage is the most famous one.

It's really easy to make the music they're playing sound good, but they make it sound better than most. They rock and they have good taste in level themes. Batman Level 1 is a masterstroke.

BOMBERMAN 2-WIGGY
I'M TELLING YOU GUYS
BOMBERMAN 2-WIGGY
although it has a lot to do with saskrotch's broken needles 2 mix.. when i first got that, i listened to that bomberman 2 track a million times , with it mixed with that []pusha track.
it's funny, i jus found out about them today, but i'd say they've jumped to the number 1 spot in my most listened artists of the week on last.fm. we'll see tomorrow when the chart is compiled....

hasn't the whole 8-bit romantization thing gone a bit too far now? i see these fucking indie emo sluts pose with 1 up shirts and post about how much they love mario 1 on their myspace sites all the time now! retrotrendy internet, i hate you.
that said, this may be good, but the mp3 links on the site don't work for me.
