[@juanelevin1114]

My wife was Producer on these shows....I am going to show her this, great job!!

[@mlektheforg]

Pretty neat

[@davida6146]

Will she be part of the revival series?

[@PeterParker-ff7ub]

thank you to her

[@vlad-ovidiuadam6489]

Thank your wife for me then :)

[@RobertSeeJen]

What's she say?

[@rasaecnai]

Erock must be be Magnito with all this power over metal

[@regularshow960]

Underrated af comment right there

[@JKRavenBlood]

Must be a sibling of Polaris. Maybe he's named after his father; Eric

[@JerryJ84]

Your 100 like!

[@midtown3221]

be be

[@matthewmiller3322]

Opus and Anthony lol

[@flipsilog_Gaming]

OH GOD!! Nostalgia just kicked me in the nuts..

[@Dman16920]

You too?

[@kahsgreen318]

youre not the only one bro

[@busskiller]

the chills man...

[@MIGBMWLOVER]

the chills are real!!

[@greyfox6786]

+Dman16920 you too?

[@biltrex]

Here we are in 2020 and this is still the best X-Men theme song to date!

[@Stronghand-yw1lk]

2023 now & still the best.

[@stefantsarev4442]

To be honest, X2's theme is also incredible.

[@awood9214]

So glad this cover is getting rediscovered years later. It's a work of art 🎸

[@sahmlockhart]

rogue is still damn hot

[@DeVstatrOmga]

Rogue got me through Puberty. True story.

[@LiquidSSSnake]

I'll never forget when two of my cousins had a Rogue figurine out of a Happy meal. They were critiquing in and talking about how Rogue had more booty in the cartoon than on the toy. She did have the best ass in the cartoon for sure

[@LordVader1094]

+Liquid Snakes Kids critiquing fictional booty... That made me laugh harder than I should've. Lol

[@LiquidSSSnake]

They were teenagers, a few years older than me. My cousin still got anything (like a happymeal) if it was comic book related.

[@LordVader1094]

Liquid Snakes Oh. Nevermind then. Lol

[@TheNielCodex]

I love when you can spot a guitar players smirk of "Fuck yeah I just nailed that part!". Sounds great, man!

[@LoftyThoughtsInTheDesert]

The empowerment! And then the confidence boost to drive it home.

[@TrueMentorGuidingMoonlight]

If this theme song were played during the credits sequence, I'd nerdgasm as I wait for the after-credits scene.

[@joelbrajkovich7517]

...Totally did...see my post above^

[@aarroncannon1590]

Same...

[@themaster408]

X-Men cartoon's Apocalypse was the best. Powerful, well spoken, and intimidating. His dialogue was the best imo. Just spoke with superiority. Favorite line: "You are no closer to defeating me than the Babylonians and their fire sticks." Second favorite line (talking to a human who helped him): "I am as far beyond Mutants as they are beyond you."

[@johnnygyro2295]

Here's one of my favorites: "Evil? I am not malevolent. I simply am!"

[@jchan6736]

30 years before he was Apocalypse he Kor the Klingon fighting Captain James T. Kirk one of the few great Star Trek actors to do voice overs

[@rotyler2177]

'Crash against me and be broken.'

[@Gamerdude854]

I didn't know the X-men theme could get any better but you just pulled it off

[@DannyConeHeadOnceLer]

Exactly ! 🤩

[@amiradrummer]

awesome brother!

[@amirazfar1189]

Perrgghh org malaysia komen 😁👍

[@thecrossroadstavern1447]

@331erock I’m on a quest to lose 20lbs and Cosplay old Cajun himself, Gambit. I listen to this song EVERY TIME I finish my workout with a 2-min cardio push. Thank you SO MUCH for chasing every dream it took for you to post this video with confidence in the KZbins. I can’t express how much it’s inspired.

[@firehawk0]

I am so glad they put this theme in the New Doctor Strange movie 😁

[@wilsonjoshwilson]

Maxamillan dood brought me here and the replay button has never recovered since

[@sebembhele5590]

wilsonjoshwilson nice

[@AliTKhan]

This can be theme for Dark Phoenix Rising against all x-men

[@liverusrock6789]

Reading the Dark Phoenix saga while hearing this, best way to read it.

[@nickmattio3397]

One can dream

[@name-vi6fs]

By far the best Apocalypse voice.

[@phantasmfang6331]

Absolutely!!

[@beresalvatore3477]

Omg ! Great like always !!! I loved that show when I was young !!! To Much. Memories

[@bou212]

Oh Erock you just brought me back when tv cartoons were still awesome

[@RammmFan]

the riff and synth which made our childhood (along with Power Rangers) best of the times for kids ever, we were destined to become metalheads - truest and most honorable of human race

[@benjam015]

my Childhood

[@Infinitebrandon]

I've long thought you were brotherhood of evil mutants, lol, but you always play something xmen love. I have no problem teaming up with elder magneto sometime. Thanks once again. Aloha🤙

[@xAleElder]

Excelsior

[@hardkore360]

This what I believe I sound like when I play guitar 🤣🤣🤣 Awesome sounds!

[@EposVox]

YAAAAAS

[@Nightfurry87]

Oh man you just brought back Saturday morning cartoons for me thank you this is amazing

[@NicholsonStudios]

I really hope they bring this theme or some iteration of it into the MCU somehow when they eventually add Xmen into MCU. Great job!

[@muntster]

Thank you for that dose of nostalgia; it brought a smile to my face. : )

[@kingradovidv4524]

We need Spectacular Spiderman's theme

[@JuanRodriguez-se9hn]

HOLY SHIT YES!!!!!

[@SpidermanEminem]

YES

[@r.c.thepenguingamer]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSS!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!????????

[@malangx]

waking up to this on a Sunday morning is the best thing that has happened to me this week! thank you!

[@miguelpotosi1464]

necesitan esa melodia para terminar la serie de 2024

[@毅然送廳]

So passionate!!! Hope Marvel will use your version!!! Now I have to listen to it a few times a day!!! Can you release the 2022 HD sound version again? I love it so much!!!

[@lisaamaro]

I was hoping you covered this song. So, I searched for it and here we are 👏👏👏

[@TheWickedRomancer]

So I specifically came here to leave a comment. I stumbled across your cover of Hans Zimmer's piece "Time" on spotify. You've come so far, and that is truly amazing. Very nice.

[@petestackow]

2023 to Disney+! Long live the greatest cartoon of our lives!!!

[@AugyTek]

Thanks for creating something so awesome, shared on our FB page for our fans, may they become yours as well.

[@dirtyharry1881]

This couldn't be better. Not only did you do an excellent job, but you made it better where it was a bit naive (like the V-I progression at the end of the main theme)

[@infused_libra_studios]

dude hearing a new version of this as a metal is AMAZING!i fucking love you thanks!

[@brandonogden2210]

TO ME, MY X-MEN!!!!!

[@butcher2263]

Duuuude! That was so awesome! Brought me back to my favorite time!

[@PelinTekdal]

You killed it!!! my two favorite things X-Men and metal couldn't have been combined better. Congrats!

[@eidolusgad]

When it comes to X-Men covers, I'm a hard sell. Not the case here. Well done friend.

[@ShredGuy]

Great as always bud! I look up to you sir

[@andyfox8377]

Yes!!! I was hoping you'd do this!

[@thomashutchison9361]

this was awesome Erock! like wow! glad to see you haven't quit!

[@arieros4955]

I love how you always look so happy to do this.

[@RavenGlenn]

I loved the original one you did mate. This one is even better! You bloody rock.

[@kingfang2945]

Classic, the first one is probably one of my favorite videos of yours. Keep it up!

[@Novous]

OMG THANK YOU for starting with "previously, on X-men"

[@PaulFarrerMusic]

Superb dude! Your astute playing never fails to amaze me! Great work bro!

[@GertBFrobe-gy2ox]

oh hell yea!!! thank you for your work man!

[@kBwFOXy]

I love both versions of this! How about a little "Evolution" remake? X-Men covers done right!!

[@CoolspyGaming]

This brought me back to when I was a 5-year old sitting in front of the tv 5 o' clock in the morning. Great work dude!

[@z0m813]

this is insane good job sir pretty sure that's most of our childhoods right there

[@zombiebombcorp8224]

Eric bringing back the classics! awesome cover.

[@maskofshy]

[@ChunkyFkr]

[@Mechanix04]

[@perimetroprimitivo5734]

Genial, saludos desde 2024

[@alexdrob7499]

Much thanks for this video. I love x-men theme and it sounds awesome from you. Thanks!

[@AllyMinten]

Wow that's takes me back .. Love it thanks Eric you are amazing

[@Digitalxknife]

This is your best work yet :)

[@mickeymontemayor510]

They had a metal title credits that ran for 12 or so episodes, sporadically. Usually when they featured not regular mutants, such as Cable or Bishop. It was really well done like this

[@freakycookie101]

Never stop what you're doing, you precious man

[@joelbrajkovich7517]

as soon as the end credits started to roll on X-MEN APOCALYPSE I get the notification on my phone for this video. It's like Erock has mutant powers of flawless timing ( as evidenced by his shred-ability well )!

[@throbnshaft182]

Bro love this cartoon as a kid bring some memories bro keep up the fantastic work

[@horrormovieprimetime4977]

Thank you eRock for making The X-Men theme song even more kickass brother you got me in the feels oh 90's I miss you.

[@arfacrew]

Idk if you already did it and this song is already metal but PLS do a Swat Cats theme!!

[@rmdcade1717]

Seconded!

[@cielshadow17]

I agree we need this!

[@docxsquid6432]

oh shiet! plz do

[@SoNotTuxxy]

WE NEED THIS IN OUR LIVES OH HOLY GOD OF GUITAR!!!

[@striker0]

I third this comment. That would be overly epic to the nth level.

[@NoxLoch]

I shared this on my fb. This is awesome dude 👍🏻👌🏻

[@F1shard]

Epic Dude! Ron Wasserman needs to see this

[@ivanhenley]

Damn, what an awesome rendition of that theme. Hats off to you once again. I'd love to hear you tackle the Battletoads theme.

[@followfornothing]

This shit takes me back to X-Men the animated series on FOX when Saturday Morning Cartoons were actually worth a shit. As you played this I closed my eyes and still remember the intro. Thank you for doing this and making me feel like a kid again.

[@gula475]

Dziękuje za wszystko co robisz from Poland

[@16Ezalb]

For some reason I thought you'd already done this but then I remembered that was Power Glove... Keep up the good work, Eric :-)

[@josiahstowe4213]

Oh my gosh! Another perfect cover!

[@Splinter1X]

Thank You I have missed this theme so much Thank You

[@CaliVsAk]

Dude, this literally brought tears to my eyes. amazing

[@lochinbabanner]

can i use it as my ringtone?

[@ms.animefreak319]

you always look so happy. to top it off you can play amazing stuff. You sir are just simply awesome!! 😉

[@pascudinu7644]

Dude this is mindblowing, epic play guys

[@Leathurkatt]

OMG I love that series! I have it on DVD and a promo release VHS through Pizza Hut too. Nice work, dude.

[@cranioDan111]

That may have originally been the X-Men theme, but YOU OWNED that one!

[@supcomFAN]

one of your best ones yet

[@MrEtown87]

I'll be honest and say I prefer your 2011 upload version. But of course both of them are awesome !

[@JohnnyBNerdy]

The first video I ever saw by you was the Mega Man medley. Even though it's flawless, I would love to see you go back and revisit that one. OOOOOOoooo or the Castlevania Medley!

[@antarfilms1987]

Look at the grin on that guy's face! He loves it! Nostalgia gets everyone!

[@fgfh10004]

Loved your original cover of this, still fucking kicking ass with the new one!

[@theMrdomoarigato]

the intro monologue is from the episode "apocalypse comes", pretty cool

[@waranghira]

YES! Finally, a proper cover! Not that disappointing one from MysterGuitarMan who didn't include the escalating tension part.

[@joselizcano3641]

OMG YOU ARE THE MAN! AMAZING AWESOME BRO!!!

[@cyberomega5796]

I knew I'd heard that voice somewhere before! The guy that does the voice of Apocalypse in the cartoon is the same guy that plays Kor (The Dahar Master!) in Star Trek and Star Trek Deep Space Nine.

[@Karthios1]

You just made me want to go and watch this show again.

[@squarebodycasewademckenney6190]

it would be cool if they used this in a xmen movie

[@zylowolf7919]

Well seeing as how they used the 60s tv show theme for Spiderman in the MCU, it's highly possible they will do the same for XMEN. It's an iconic theme.

[@kuramayoko23]

That would be perfect as long as they don't massacre the source material.

[@adamhurt612]

Awesome man. Love your covers. You have earned yourself a subscriber! 😊👍🏻🍻

[@pawpawno1]

Not even my style, I play flamenco, but I respect the craft brother. Good work!

[@mikejames5520]

Oh man great! I forgot about this music, used to love it back in the day!

[@TreeFolkDruid]

maaaaaaan this is like two of my favorit childhood things! metal and X-men animated intro. My life is now complete

[@alexdrob7499]

Return to this video just to said how awesome it is. This theme is so badass!

[@TheLightweaver777]

I think you outshone Powerglove on this one, E. Fantastic job!

[@nicolasuayan6499]

I feel.my 90s bro... u nailed it
