Square Enix The Black Mages

Nobuo Uematsu(Squaresoft I should say, but they were arranged by Uematsu) released a compilation of heavy metal versions of final fantasy battle music a while back called "The Black Mages"

The track listings of the one cd compilation are as follows:
Battle Scene (Final Fantasy)
Clash on the Big Bridge (Final Fantasy V)
Force Your Way (Final Fantasy VIII)
Battle, Scene II (Final Fantasy II)
The Decisive Battle (Final Fantasy VI)
Battle Theme (Final Fantasy VI)
J-E-N-O-V-A (Final Fantasy VII)
Those Who Fight Further (Final Fantasy VII)
Dancing Mad (Final Fantasy VI)
Fight With Seymour (Final Fantasy X)


I've only heard Those Who Fight Further(Still More Fighting from FF7) and Clash At The Bridge(which I think is the Atma fight?) so far, but they sounds great!!!

And if you want to hear some of the songs then check out http://www.playonline.com/uematsu/tbm/

 

I really enjoy the love theme in ff8 because it just goes with the story, but I have never heard of "The Black Mages".

So That Guy! are you very in to Final Fantasy?

Does anyone know how to get ff5, ff6 on playsation????

 

Cool. I shall have to get these tracks, at any cost. Listening to one of them at the moment. Sounds good.
\m/ ROCK! \m/

 

hey Quistis to get FF5 (my FAVE) and FF6 you need to buy the game called antology, which is a bit hard to find try going to EB in large malls not like the ones in chatham anyway try to go to winser or sarnia, oh and be prepared to pay lots of cash for it. $80+
anyway nice tunes THATGUY

 

Thanks, I now have a rom of ff5, but is it as good as a playstation version?

 

yes its a great game however you look at it although the only problem is that it takes a bit longer to load, but you get use to it as with everything....you should stick with the rom....its a good game i think you'll like it...but if you can try to pick up anthology its well worth the money...i think anyway. and if you need help go to my website i have a guide for FF5. Good luck.

 

That Guy sorry I turn your conversation and information into a chat with mog:shy3:

 

Yeah, this thread has gone kind of off topic. If you have any other questions about FFV, find another thread for it, or start a new one if you wouldn't mind(M2A does not support illegal warezing and stuff). Back to teh metal.
I listened to both of those songs, they're pretty good. The guitar was good, but I felt the synth/midi was still a bit overbearing. I'll get the rest, postpone my judgement til then.

 

These are kick-***!!!

CLash On The Big Bridge is brilliant,And I remember Those Who Fight Further From 7!Well Without the Big Solo Before but it better this time.They've Made it even better!

Ahem!When would one purchase this item?Probably not in Ireland Anyway.Can you beleive they dont sell End Of Evangelion here aswell!Oh I'll find!

 

Stick to Final Fantasy, TomAnthony.

 

I got a copy of the Black Mages recently and I love it. I made my own little CD ^^ and I love to listen to it. Quitars + FF music = goooood

 

Actualy Tom, if you got off your lazy *** and LOOKED, you would find that Forbidden Planet often stock copies of both Death and Rebirth and End of Evangelion.
This CD however shall be harder to find. I think you shall have to resort to the internet. By ordering it of course, not downloading illegal mp3s. Perish the thought.
