Bkuuzin These tracks sounds very nice! This is an awesome idea! Favorite track: Tuo Hcnup.

Stein Gunnar Bakkeby To be honest I was first only interested because I discovered that I am not the only one who reads things backwards. The tracks were a bit funky, but not that appealing as such. I then tried the reversed version thinking that it would just sound weird like reversed audio generally does. As expected it did sound weird, but then came the revelation; this sounds very much like Ghosts 'n Goblins! Quite simply put this is a brilliant accomplishment and well worthy of praise. Favorite track: Snilbog n' Stsohg (reversed).

This album is just too good for its own good. This is what happens when 5 amazing musicians come together and magic is made. We're all extremely lucky to have this entire album, but From the Earth to the Moon is bloody brilliant in particular. B-) MunzadetH

Chiptune and Metal are art. They require initiation. For the layman that's just noise. Well, by mixing the two, Metroid Metal make the result appealing even to the layman. unidual
