Contra: Hard Corps - Last Springsteen [Genesis] Music

[MegaNoobee]

Contra and Battletoads, the most badass games ever

[Sneep29]

I love fighting that huge head in the glass jar at the end, ON TOP OF A ROCKET AT 200 MILES PER HOUR!!!!! This song is so damn awesome, It really motivates you. It's a shame nothing is as fun as this now'a days.

[anttwenty91]

STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEL

[zevex747]

This boss theme is so METAL

[b33st0p]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK BAHAMUT,,

[wayofthemetal]

Sooo heavy Sooo tech metal I frackin' crave this sound track a lot of Genesis games had awesome music and this is one of my favorite

[francoylos3fumados]

MEETTAAAAALL!!!!!!

[GUSTAVTT]

MEEETTAAAAALLLL!!!!!!

[sparkster7744]

Amazing song!! :O

[ashwath123]

Goku was listening to this while charging his spirit bomb to defeat Buu. OH YEAH! SHIT JUST GOT REAL!

[MrKingsme]

yo which was hardest big magnum, the missile, the queen or super bahamut

Personally i thought big magnum was the hardest and the missile boss was to damn easy what do you all think

[SuperSoundwave100]

@MrKingsme Good lord i thought big magnum was the hardest,i still have trouble beating him, i did beat him, but he was a prick to beat.

[MrKingsme]

@SuperSoundwave100 yeh so do i he's a real prick everyone elses attacks ya can slide to avoid but not his i'm glad someone else agrees thats maybe why the ending ya get is so cool the station blows and ya go down with it and magnum in a blaze of glory

[Julienfun]

This is soooo epic !!

Can't even picture how epic it would sound if somebody plays this on guitar

[DoctorTalon]

To this day, it blows my mind how awesome Contra Hard Corps' soundtrack was. The Sega Genesis was at the mercy of the SNES' superior sound, but games like this showed good music can still be possible in spite of the limitations.

[killacamrizzle]

love dis tune!

[wayofthemetal]

this will wake you up and get you moving!

[azgalorazgalor17]

That deformed alien with multiple heads and vomits worms creep me out when I was a kid (rocket ship ending)... Now I just lol'd when it vomits those worms together with that dancing cyclopse on the first stage. xD

[abSOULuteD]

Gives you a rush, start your car.. speed down the highway helicopters chasing you, your friend in the passenger side trying to shoot it down.. oh man that's hot

[TheSuperforestman]

For some weird reason,I want this for my ringtone!Someone tell me how to get this for my ringtone!PLEASE! It's for the sake of weird people everywhere.

[xValis77x]

0:33 - 1:13 EargasmI FREAKING CAME BITCHES! THATS SOME BADASS THEME THERE.

[thedeadenigma]

i used to think shredder in ninja turtles two was the best music

[PanterAmetal100]

contra death/speed metal!!!! rock on !!! madness?,madness!?, this is contra!!!!

[sparkster7744]

Alien Missile is sickness. I love it.

[legodiner]

Contra = one of the most adicting drugs on earth !!!!!!

[Legalaze]

AWESOME!!! mosh mosh mosh

[pimps1986]

This game was raw; way ahead of their time.

This game was the s**t!

[shinken209]

Best Genesis Game.....Period. Beats any other Contra game out there.....

[aryinc]

@shinken209

not best genesis game but leaves all other contras behind,this beeing the most complete and origenal.yet there where more good contras.

[EdTheBadass]

Why do I think Megas XLR when I listen to this ? :D

[mistertitanic]

@EdTheBadass Because Megas XLR was awesome :D

[EdTheBadass]

@mistertitanic

this music would suit them

[nebanks80]

I used to wonder why this wasn't revisted in Shattered Soldier's brutal OST... then I realised if it was any heavier PEOPLE WOULD'VE FUCKIN' DIED. :D

[SNESosT]

SNES - RPG

SEGA - ACTION

oh god the action I could have had back then, then again I'm still young so WOOT!

[dave55811]

I do detect some heavy metal here. Very nice.

Sega Genesis isn't something to be underestimated. I wish I knew that back in the 90's. T-T

[SigmaXVirus]

Oh no, do I really have to kill the Hard Corps Uprising guy?

[TH3T045T]

ive played this game ever since i was a baby, ive loved this song, as a young child, this helped me sleep. WHAT THE HELL??!?!?!?!?!

Amazing Song<333333333333

[beefpoker]

This is literally metal in 8-bit. Love it.

[singularity3]

@beefpoker The Mega Drive was a 16-bit console.

[MrRorschach93]

i am SO playing this on 2012 while i'm driving with my car through the street

[meh54]

Play this whilst doing any mundane daily activity (making toast, washing dishes etc), and it makes it AWESOME!

[abSOULuteD]

@meh54 Doing lawnwork haha "LET'S MOVE, GO GO GO, GET TO THE MOWER!!!!"

[laseren68]

This has to be the final boss music for every new Contra game Konami makes!!!

[GlenGlingo9]

0:30 SYNTHETIC SHRED!!!!

[SLCL]

Paging Daisuke.

This needs to be an alternate final boss theme for HCU

[patrickng9]

@SLCL agreed with you

[REvamp91590]

@SLCL I'm really surprised that he didn't re-do this song of all songs. It should be DLC. I'd pay just to hear this as the final boss them for HCU. 0:30 to 1:12 is probably my favorite part and would be godly if Daisuke did his thing on it.

[xValis77x]

@REvamp91590 *Konami thank you!

[GalitUnggoy]

OMG! I'm getting the band to cover this one!!

[num1Beatlesfan]

There so needs to be a metal version of this! XD

[Jiterdomer]

BOSS BATTLE HEADBANG!!!!!!

[MasterWaveXL7]

this music is OD, this is the type of boss music you'd hear before you die of too much insanity!

[Gamekevin]

I never played Contra Hard Corps, but I just love that theme!

[develt2012]

I really want to hear a cover with real metal band

[shineph]

The best boss music on Genesis, love it !

[mistertitanic]

One of the Hardest Final bosses ever! D: This theme totally fits the most epic fight in the game!

[superstarman9001]

@mistertitanic Which one? There's 4 of them!

[mistertitanic]

@superstarman9001 Oh they all use the same music? Oops :) The one you battle to get the best ending. The bad guy himself. Not the missile, not the alien heart thing. I don't know what he's called LOL.

[superstarman9001]

@mistertitanic That would be Super Bahamut.

[mistertitanic]

@superstarman9001 Yup. Sounds about right :)

[MECHASWORLD2020]

I DARE anyone to making a metal remix of this.

[Raveheart90]

@MECHASWORLD2020 I think that would have the same effect as that musical doomsday machine from Read or Die the movie, except instead of forcing everyone who hears it to commit suicide, their heads just spontaneously explode.

[NARFNra]

@Raveheart90

Possibly from Headbanging

[BlizzardRockFestival]

@NARFNra HELL YEAH!!!

[tbone2004]

Big Magnum, Alien Missile, Red Falcon Redux, and Super Bahamut

PICK YOUR POISON!! XD

[crombmonkey53]

@tbone2004 dont for get living in the stone age

[tbone2004]

@crombmonkey53 Oh, the Easter Egg Final Boss. Good luck with that one...

[sparkster7744]

@tbone2004

When this tune starts playing, Gigas hides xD

[piolhochato]

0:29 - 0:34

METAAAAAAAL

\,,,/ (Ò.ó) \,,,/

[Gencoil]

I never understood why this track was called "Last Springsteen". Then it hit me, Bruce Springsteen goes under the nickname "The Boss" :)

[SaviourV]

@Gencoil NOW I get it! No wonder they called it that. Nice connection.

[VigilanteHate]

@Gencoil ....I never understood why this track was called "Last Springsteen either until I read your post lol. Wow I feel dumb.

[happynoodleblair]

@Gencoil Duuude, I've known Bruce was "the Boss" for almost as long as I've owned this game, and it took you to put the connection together for me. >_< Now, I can jam out with a deeper understanding of the 8 bit boss battle metal track that's gotten my blood pumpin' for years and years...

[DarkFocust]

the music from this game was so ahead of its time, fukn luv it
