Because it's supposed to be 8-bit, like the songs on an NES game. The NES sound technology could only support 2 or 3 words of digitized speech, like "Blades of Steel!" at the beginning of Blades of Steel. Besides, I think vocals wouldn't really add to this version of the song.
lol
this song in 8-bit is funny

You know your bad ass when your songs sound almost as good if not better in 8bit.

@GasSnake2003 Not really... NES supported up to 6 tracks (using special DSP on the cartridge). 8-Bit in this case refers to the era.

No, it was blasphemy when I found out that Hellsing OVA's won't be dubbed anymore DX no more Crispin Freeman as Alucard...

This should've been the final boss music for the first Final Fantasy instead of...well, THE STANDARD BATTLE THEME.
