  • yep

  • Has anyone heard BKMJMBOX's cover? Neither band nor both could contain his awesomeosity!!

  • 5 people can't handle ROCK AND ROLL!

  • This song is literally running through my head whenever I do something awesome.

    Which is all the time.

  • Great effort, only thing I'd suggest is to have the guitarist learn the faster eigth note segments that happen before the chorus and the crazy organ kicks in, turn the bass up louder, and have the drums time a little more closer to the game's drum time segments. If you do this, and remaster this track with my suggestions, making it sound more thrash metal-esque, I'll definitely say this is full of win. Still, I applaud the efforts, great job!

  • Gilgamesh did not like this

  • I'm sorry but I think these guys should leave the rock versions of these songs to the Black Mages. This was a disgrace.

  • I came.

    

  • 4 People equipped Excalipoor in final fantasy V

  • These guys should do a cover of Final Fantasy's final boss theme. I'm surprised no one, not even the Black Mages, did that one.

  • Comment removed

  • @strombada Um I mean all the subsequent releases included a Final Boss Theme. I am well aware that the Nintendo Entertainment System only used "Battle Scene" for the last boss theme. I am just saying they should do a cover of the one subsequent to all other releases.

  • I came across The Red Wings once when looking up Golden Axe songs. Dunno why i didn't subscribe right then. Time to subscribe now I guess, I like a lot of their covers.

  • geez that opening run is simply never done with the guitar is it? Would be so epic to hear this song start with that as a riff.

  • Best...Battle...Theme....Perio­d

  • It's time we fight like men! and ladies! and ladies who dress like men!

    thumbs up if you get the reference

  • You guys are great! I've also noticed that there are two Final Fantasy cover bands, one on one continent and the other on the other. I'll start the one hear in the U.S. I'll call it The Rebel Army or something. =P

  • Not bad, not bad at all. For all those who are particular fans of this theme like myself, I suggest checking out the Distant Worlds version, which is one of the best versions of the song I've heard.

    This particular version is well done, it seems closer to the original in both style and intent than most of the others I've heard, and where it lacks in sheer/energy power that I've felt from otehrs, it makes up for in giving me the feel of actually being a part of that battle again. Good show!

  • Damnit! Every time I think I'm safe by listening to Gilgamesh's music, I always mess my pants.

  • ok u guys are music geniuses!(hope i spelled it right)

  • gilgameshes theme beats sephitoths :D

  • Gilgamesh needs to show up more, he could easily be comic relief in any future Final Fantasy. :D

  • I LOVE IT :O

  • hey guys been following you for ome time , this my comment and was wondering if you got any live stuff... i dont mean gigs but thatd be great but i mean any vid of you jamming to uematsu tunes would be a real treat for me

  • Why does everyone compare The Red Wings to The Black Mages, the only things in common are, 1. Their Both Rock Bands 2. They brought back music form classic games but nobody realizes that the Black Mages ONLY PLAY FINAL FANTASY MUSIC

  • This is an awesome cover!

  • BKMJMBOX rocks this song like a god hes = to kurikinton if not better, check him out ALL!! lol

  • Gilgamesh the king of thieves? More like king of Comedy! Hahaha I love Gilgy :D

  • kurikinton fox rocks this song harder

  • epic...

    (lol i sound like a fanboy)

  • Around 0:46 you could have used some stemming between two guitars, otherwise, great!

  • i agree, FF is the best game ever and i am a huge fan but this comment thread is very lame. calm down everyone.

  • Close enough to the Dissidia version. Good job.

  • Men now I want a game where Gilgamesh as the main character....

  • that wouldn't suck

  • @OmegaChosen0

    Oh...my...god...YES!!!!

  • @OmegaChosen0 yes in so many different ways.

  • Girugamesh for Dissidia!

    As playable not a summon

  • @OmegaChosen0 Guess what? Dissidia 012's Quest Mode. Maybe I'll make a small quest for Gil.

  • @SpiderGuy20 Saw that and I am still high on the FUCK YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

  • @OmegaChosen0 may not be much but he is playable in Dissidia duodecim

  • Now we fight like men who listen to awesome remixes!

    Pick up AXE GUITAR

  • Gotta be honest love the drum beat

  • For the fact you hate Gilgamesh gives the human existence the right to beat the FUCK out of you with a semi sharp brick.

  • Stop whining.

    You are the cancer that makes people sad when they see what is to be an uplifting video.

    troll sum moar.

  • @chocoboy02

    brick?? naw............there has to be something better. let's use pool noodles wrapped in barb wire. or just throw babies at him. babies and barb wire perhaps?

  • @chocoboy02

    please explain how to sharpen a brick. this might be useful.

  • @Rikarikun break it, tends to have sharp edges.

  • If They Ever Make a Smash Bros. Vs. Square Enix They Better Have 'The Bridge' as a Stage! That would be so Badass.

  • Or just added "Onion Knight" to the roster.

  • Gilgamesh Vs. Bomberman

    Gilgamesh: Now we fight like men! And a man in tight clothing!

  • lol. now THAT is a match to see!

  • gilgamesh v zagfried.

    who would win?

  • I think i like this one better than the mages, actually...

  • no matter what

    MAGES RULE

  • i perfeare  mages

  • 0:40 onwards = Pure Win in liquid form. ^.^

  • better than your cover of not alone (ff9), good job

  • hahaha!

  • ITS GILGAMESH

  • Red Wings vs Black Mages

    WHO WILL WIN?!

  • well, considering the intro of FFIV is the Red Wings owning a village of black n' white mages...

  • black mages

  • sorry, but red wings, sir!

    the remix from the black mages of the battle with golbez's archfiends was weak, but then again dancing mad was godly, but diddnt bring in the ascention organ which pisses me off, but still when you remix frogs theme like them, thats when legends are born, son!

  • I think unless people are clincally insane we don't have a patch on the Mages. :p

  • Well, you guys still do pretty good. I like your Megaman 2 Wiley's theme remix.

  • you guys are amazing, but, well, the mages are the mages!

  • Yes you do.

  • @APZonerunner lol came back after a year. Anyhow, I like this version much more than Black Mages', yours seems to be slightly more faithful.

  • @APZonerunner - hey I disagree totally!! Whilst the Black Mages have done a lot more than you have, I really like the style of what you've done with all these pieces. This piece is so much better than the naff FFXII version of it - even if Gilgamesh was pretty cool in that game. Don't put yourself down!! xD

  • @APZonerunner I would have to agree. Wings are good. But mages would Renzokuken them!

  • @APZonerunner damn it i feel the utter rush of bothe excitement of noticing this on ff12 when it clashed with seeing the buster sword which is the yagyu darkblade i believe the un nameable warrior was sephiroth it has to be as you get the masamune for beating mysterious man hunt

  • @APZonerunner you tell em and just a word of freindly advice love the theme and it equals the black mages

  • Red Wings win. They don't just take the original mostly-synthesised tune and make a guitar go chug-chug-chug in the background for four minutes like The Black Mages do.

    God, I fucking hated Grand Cross.

  • hey, so Grand Cross wasn't so great - but the Black Mages have more hits than misses, IMO. Their version of Big Bridge is my favorite, for example, because they give the source tune proper treatment while also expanding upon the original (and because Nobuo's solo is epic). The Rock Opera version of Aria de Mezzo Caraterre was also brilliant.

    That said, the Red Wings are a great band. They do exactly what they set out to do: give classic video game tunes the sound quality they deserve. homage!

  • When all is said and done, we're inspired by them. Mages > All.

  • I liked Grand Cross...

  • @Figroliun

    Red Wings - they have Datsyuk, Datsyuk = victory ^^

  • black mages do it better than others

    

  • black mages

    

  • @Figroliun TIE!

  • @Figroliun Chris Tilton.

  • @Figroliun The Red Wings won in Mysidia.

    

  • @Figroliun both together = fucking awesome

  • Can't you just spell Gilgamesh correctly? Damn

  • Actually, it's Girugamesshu.

  • Girugamesh is HWO they PRONOUNCE it , it's still written Gilgamesh.

    It's like writting Sera Muun for Sailor Moon! -_-;;

  • Gilgamesh's rep hasn't been the same since that viral video with the GIRUGAMESH thing that seems to be popular these days, the thing is, his rep wasn't that great to begin with, he's a cool looking mini boss who you can steal some neat stuff from, but his theme music was what made him memorable.

  • Gilgamesh pwnz0rz

  • Really, really good! I wish I had such good tracks to show on the tube!!!!! It's fun to listen to other FF cover bands like ours!!! Keep up the good work (and get a look at the tracks in my account, maybe you can give us some advice eheh!)
