8-bit: Opeth - The Lotus Eater

[madhusudanraman]

@Jakatarn you just made my day xD

[mwheeler1994]

8 Bit blast beats, lol.

[Boristhaspydr]

2:26 someone hung up...

[BinaryPill]

4:15 game over screen

[thefallenone95]

By the sound of this song, you know the boss it's going to be a bitch. :)

[boxtrap21]

I like how 5:53 was basically already 8 bit haha

[SiGhast]

Oh no. Fan service for Mariopethees.

[MrVinushka]

LOL the Mario bit (5:53) still sounds the same as the record.

[Rabje1234]

wow srsly, the intro made me think: Someone should play that on a church organ :3 would sound very brutal and evil

[Fabinesss]

Deliverance in 8 bits!! please! careful with the outro! it got to be the best 8 bit outro on the universe!

[Helnsinki99]

it doesnt sound very good without the singing -.-

[frugihoyi]

HAHAHAHA good one with the man on the elephant!!!

[tockusa]

Haha. Awesome. Commodore 64 bitches.

[SiGhast]

@tockusa Not quite. The sound of the Commodore 64 sound chip is completely different. This sounds closer to NES.

[lebocharp]

5:53-6:26 = Mariopeth

[0tacon]

 It's a-me, Mikael!

[Makearight139]

god i love the nintendo part in 8 bit!

[TigerTaint]

why does your download link direct to a WAV version of the song? compress much?

[applexxcore]

@TigerTaint the original format for the song was a .WAV file. why would i need to compress anything?

[alt9001]

@TigerTaint Loser, get a faster internet or learn to appreciate lossless downloads.

[TigerTaint]

@alt9001 hahahaha a lossless midi audio file? yea, you really want to keep all that sweet, audio fidelity for a shitty MIDI song. you moron

[alt9001]

@TigerTaint Because it's hard to convert it to mp3/ogg/whatever yourself? Also your first sentence makes about as much sense as a retarded 3 year old trying to solve world hunger. Cute, but still retarded.

[TigerTaint]

@alt9001 you think converting audio is hard? let me be the first to welcome you to the wonderful world of computers. brush up on your english, while you're at it

[alt9001]

@TigerTaint Not sure if serious...? Spoiler: sarcasm was used, you may now proceed to consider yourself a complete jackass.

[TigerTaint]

@alt9001 i don't care anymore laterz LOLOLOL

[RenatoNardelli]

Awesome...

[abrahamisagreatman]

tutorial on how you made this pleeeeeeease

[bjorn860]

A Wild Martín Axenrot Appears!!

Go Mikael Åkerfeldt!

Mikael Åkerfeldt used Death Growl!!!

It's suppereffective!!

´

The Trainer used one Masterball...

...Gotcha!, Martin Axenrot was caught! he was sent to play the drums for Opeth. xD

[Max799]

This sounds like fighting the Elite 4

[Ast1337]

Omg what the fuck is this xD It sound pretty cool anyway!

[TheNeuroticBassPlay]

Funk riff from 5:47 to 6:28 is wicked in 8-bit form!

[surgeyX]

Post this as a response to my guitar cover of lotus eater! This and all your other 8bit covers are pwnage.

[surgeyX]

AWESOME

[Asrakorn]

5:48 castlevania, lololol

[NoShelter15]

8-bit metal should be used for hand-held Nintendos

[jguth66]

someone should tab the vocal melody too.

[ShokanPrince812]

If you didn't already, I would like to request in my time of need in 8-bit.

[FERALxPANDA]

Last boss music. this is frikkin Epic.

[777petrucci]

jesus friggin christ, this is awesome, lol!!!! if this was a nes song, i could never play the game, i would just stop and listen, lol!!!!

[WorldsChaos]

What the fuck is that ?

[applexxcore]

@WorldsChaos riveting tale, chap!

[TromboneManAK]

[a7Fload]

It's idiotic. Failing the good musić. Make "MARIO-BROSS" and stop ;/

[applexxcore]

@a7Fload That made no sense whatsoever. Trying reading a book.

Thanks!

[piklesthedrumr]

@applexxcore >Trying reading a book

>Trying

[applexxcore]

@piklesthedrumr sarcasm.

[surgeyX]

@applexxcore lmfao...

[Claizen]

lol gotta love the 8bit version of 5:50

[HadoukevMoongoose]

@Claizen yeah bud its insanely awesome

[gtdrummerdude]

Omg this is fuckin hilarious

[elfstomper4444]

When you pop a midi into GSXCC it's not eight bit. As in, it literally isn't. Still cool, but not 8-bit.

[alienhell663]

I did Burden and Porcelain heart aswell as a few other Opeth songs.

[psychofunksoldier02]

The keys on the bridge of this tune already remind me of the original Castlevania, bu this just confirms that Konami should use Opeth for any more Castlevania 8-bit remakes.

[philemonpersing]

Yes!!

[NainUsar]

5:50 / 6:28 never needed a 8-bit version, it already reminded me of a classic nintendo game. :P

[0xXxPhoenixXx0]

@NainUsar exactly what i always think while listening to it :D

[gaybash]

WILD OPETH APPEARED

[MrBogeytime]

[Tardis5005]

@applexxcore Hahaha, I still play Pokemon, which is kind of sad... But Pokemon Heart Gold reminds me of when I was 7 and first played the original, so yeah... Stupid nostalgia... :)

[MrBogeytime]

@applexxcore hahaha! that's the best thing I've heard all day

[senorvolasco]

That's funny as hell.

[overture83]
