YouTuber Reimagines Tool, Maiden, Sabbath Songs as 8-Bit Nintendo Music
Cover songs will certainly never go out of style, and neither will classic video game systems like the Nintendo NES or Super Nintendo. So, when those two elements collide, it’s no wonder the result is magical.
YouTuber 8 Bit Musician has taken iconic hard rock and metal tunes and given them an 8-bit makeover. From Tool to Black Sabbath to Ghost, this anonymous creator clearly loves themselves some rock music (and video games, obviously.)
Embedded below for your listening pleasure is 8 Bit Musician’s covers of some of the biggest hard rock and metal songs we all know and love. Enjoy!
Tool – “Schism”
Iron Maiden – “The Trooper”
Black Sabbath – “War Pigs”
Pantera – “Cemetery Gates”
Ghost – “Cirice”
Slayer – “Angel of Death”
