About Me:
 
The Red Wings are a band made up of three local punk-rock band members that take the music from their favourite videogames and arrange it for rock instruments in varying styles from heavy, driven punk/metal to soft, acoustic rock. By using guitar, bass, drums, and a selection of synthesised instruments played via keyboard, the band aim to create music that is recognisably videogame music, but also markedly different.

Each and every piece the band creates is individually arranged, with new sections often added or existing sections heavily edited. The band believe that the advantage of playing videogame music is in the emotions it evokes -- nostalgia and memories of years of gaming, be it from recent Playstation 2 games or the old-fashioned bleeps of the NES. A wide variety of musical styles can also be explored within the wider genre of videogame music, providing interesting and constantly changing challenges for the band.

the songs you have are great, dont get me wrong, but you should consider changing the name of your site. i can understand why you named it red wings, but you also have to think about the thing it refers to sexually lulz

You guys are probably one of few good bands out there that can re-create old game tunes and not F-up with the finished product. In short- YOU GUYS ROCK!!!

You guys should try to do the flying battery zone in S&K, i can definatly see that as possible.
