Finally a new Banjo Kazooie cover! It's been over a year since I hit up this amazing soundtrack. As a lot of you know, my very first video game cover was Mad Monster Mansion and because of that, this soundtrack holds a very special place in my heart.
I've been wanting to do Grunty's lair for a while now but I've been waiting for the opportune moment to unleash this arrangement. I figured since Halloween is coming up soon, there is no better time than now.
I tried to have the arrangement start off very true to the original than later on, deviate and turn into some original-sounding riffage with a solo, then ultimately resolve back again as the original. I had a lot of fun with the leads like many times over with the Banjo Kazooie soundtrack. Grant Kirkhope's melodies are so fun to play on guitar and I'm sure that's no coincidence considering he's a guitarist himself!
I hope you guys enjoy this track as much as I enjoyed making it!
Special thanks to my bro Thunderscott for the intro laugh!

Additional thanks to AHMusic for giving me some feedback on the mix / master!
Last but not least, thanks to Stuff Alex Plays for the game footage and thanks to YOU for watching and for your continuous support!
The original Gruntilda's Lair theme from the game Banjo Kazooie was composed by Grant Kirkhope

Watching this video, It gives me glee, to see this rocking song in HD, Yes, I agree!

[@DracheLehre]

Grunty: I'm not one for music But this genre, heavy metal I will say I love it more Than my beloved bull nettle!

[@locklick_6515]

drakelord56 in other words, RAAAA REEEE RAAA REE RAAAAASA

[@ArnyUnderCover]

You know you gonna have a good time when ToxicxEternity makes a Banjo Kazooie cover

[@thomasfowler2140]

quite honestly I'm only here because ToxicxEternity played it, I've never heard of the game before, but I knew it was going to be good.

[@LaFaveBros]

This is the stuff I subbed for.

[@Beregond1861]

I've listened to this absolutely FIRE🎸🔥cover like 25 times now, and that screamo Gruntilda laugh still gets me every single time.👌❤

[@gabocarina96]

I freaking love you for this!

[@oFoxHound144o]

That laugh at the intro.

[@KainWhiteMusic]

This was top. Your Banjo covers are superb.

[@RoPanuganti]

Leave it to you to shred up a favorite so uniquely, tore it up man!

[@ToxicxEternity]

thanks brotha!

[@cvanims]

Bro.. did you make your guitar laugh like a witch? You win the internet for today.

[@HYHYHTHYTHAHZHGHFSH]

Nah man, i think it's voice

[@dylanhardina]

Love it. Also one of my favorite solos you've done.

[@redaggron1]

IM SO HAPPY YOU DID ANOTHER BANJO KAZOOIE COVER. Banjo Kazooie covers were the ones I first watched by you, several years ago. Gobi's Valley, Mad Monster Mansion, Final Battle, etc. They're fantastic, as is this one! Please do more! I love your work man

[@JonatanEA]

Dude! I know I'm two years late to this, but this is amazing. Normally metal covers focus too much on showing off, but you retain the melodies and elaborate on them perfectly. This is exactly what I was hoping for, and more!

[@Kocktail1]

zippedy zipp and zoppidy zock, this cover sure do rock \m/

[@zonfarentertainment]

One of your early banjo and Kazooie metal covers is what caused me to sub. Toxic, you are the man, I freaking love all your covers, but your banjo and Kazooie covers hold a special place for me :D

[@jamesmendonca2900]

I have this song on my Halloween playlist.

[@yurifronteddu3098]

I love when he just shreds on song parts 😍🤟🏻

[@Kerorofan1990]

BK music is how I found this channel. Always awesome to hear more.

[@Arathrum]

Epic! I really dig how you stayed so true to the original while still adding a very strong personal touch.

[@AnaxErik4ever]

Seen this guy at many a TRG Colosseum for charity. I wished I had the space to listen to his music alone... this slaps! Whoo hoo!

[@kuroryuken]

Those Banjo covers... You're the fuckin' best Jack!

[@Medz98194]

Dude, this song was made for you to play! This was so good!

[@Fallenslayer1]

excellent a cover from back when games had good memorable music throughout the whole game not just the intro or climax.

[@brinkofgaming]

So well done! I love how at the beginning you stayed VERY true to the original track. Most guitarists on KZbin deviate wildly into their own style the whole time (which is fine), but I love it when a cover captures the same feel as the original. Mad props!

[@Tiagorm223]

Uma obra de arte, simplesmente incrível!!!

[@jonathonvazquez840]

getting a nu metal vibe love it

[@pokeguitaristjake6300]

Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie are two of my favorite video games. You killed Grunty's Lair with your amazing shredding skills! Good Job!!! \\m//

[@JakesFavorites]

Yeah, this is pure awesome. We need more.

[@ShawFujikawa]

Vishera will be using this at least once when Banjo’s out on Smash, mark my words. :P

[@musicaljukeboxgamer1665]

Man you rock at that guitar dude you really played this song professionally.

[@DannLink]

You're so damn perfect dude

[@ToxicxEternity]

[@Metalizationer]

When a classic is made better. GOD TIER GOOD SIR. Be proud! 🤘🏼🐻👌🏼Such Perfecto. Much Respecto.

[@FishyFod]

1:10-1:22 You beautiful, beautiful man. I love this kind of stuff. This was awesome as usual.

[@GhostDisneyCompany]

This song sounds good at almost all speeds. Omg incredible work thank you

[@NoName-rj6qe]

Thank you so much. My four year old niece and I are loving this.

[@AlexaLacroix]

Banjo always brings out the best in ya Jack. Your best in a while for sure. Also pls full gruntilda laugh metal cover

[@arthurg.devorasanabia507]

[@DerekEidahl]

[@Lightning-ig2do]

[@OhNoTheFace]

This was so dear to me when I was younger. Thanks for doing it, sounds awesome

[@jarretblankenship596]

[@Grandlett]

[@Psyduck0307]

Talent man

[@CGJoe]

Wow what an amazing cover !! please do more banjo , or banjo tooie

[@JoakimHallgren]

The coolest covers are those that aren't "rocky" or anything like that originally. Great job!

[@kennethvivanco7609]

Por este cover te ganaste un suscriptor de Perú! maestro!

[@eoken1788]

[@Viperiasa]

[@Shaze64]

Hell yeah dude! About time you did another Banjo cover!

[@HometownAnomaly]

Very lovely cover

[@BillyQvarnstrom]

Awesomely pleasant to listen to, and definitely my favorite rendition I've heard of this song!

[@groundhog3000]

Hands down from the best game ever made....ever. Also another quality cover, keep rocking hard bro!

[@mw6160]

This translates so well into metal, and I love that you did it at all. Also I think we have the same Amon Amarth wall flag? Unless it's a poster I see in the reflection of your guitar (I instantly hone in on anything Amon Amarth, it's like radar) Highfives and horns up, you've got a new subscriber dude

[@JordenDude]

This deserves so much more love its sooooooo gooood gotta love toxic!!!!!

[@js100serch]

This guy was my inspiration =)

[@Bixxy]

[@thesauceyjosh]

Badass song made me like and sub. Gotta love the game too

[@BungalugsParody]

Holy bloody hell, this is insanely awesome!

[@GoofCustom]

That laugh at the beginning tho

[@krisluna32]

This turned out to be badass nice work Jack!

[@Carbonrocker]

WTF .. you are fuc**n great ,, o:o you make my childhood great again .. tanks man.. thanks a lot from germany

[@nykor_97scout9]

This sounds awesome 😎

[@Q8J3Austin]

I'm so happy I came across this today. I'm in love with it. You earned yourself a new sub :)

[@Isarnwolf]

Why are Grant's tunes so good again?

[@Cyanixful]

Awesome again man ! GG

[@EspecialJ]

Awesome, dude!

[@TylerRJenkinsMusic]

Real nice job with this one, brings back all the memories :)

[@hylianfire]

Keep it up man! Loving the Rare covers. Hoping you'd do a sick Conker's Bad Fur Day cover! Maybe one day :)

[@nemesisa-type6721]

Would love it if you did a Conker remix.

[@ne0space]

Wooo! I'm glad I was on the amino chat to know about this! XD

[@mr9mini]

awesome, great work :D

[@jasperjammermaul8530]

Sounds Like a new Finntroll Song 🤘

[@ChristianRichardson]

So bouncy dude, I love it! \m/

[@BlueByTheMuffin]

Dude, your covers rock \m/

[@knightofarkronia9968]

Guess who’s going to be in Smash Ultimate?!

[@waluiginumberone4962]

ToxicEternity?

[@luliby2309]

I'm pretty sure it's impossible to play Banjo-Kazooie and not have the main hub world music get stuck in your head for days (if not weeks).

[@vashiss]

Nice job man ! Are you also doing the drum part ? If you do, it would be great to see it in the video !

[@chadwickblackard8156]

Is there a full album of this epic music for the rest of the banjo kazooie songs?

[@ronanfonsecaviviani2919]

Please do sparkster rocket knight 2 ( sega genesis ) Stage 3 it be awesome on metal

[@Firing_Order]

Great job as always Toxic. Some day I'll smash sweep picking like that, but as of right now, it's still half sweep half tapping for me :/ Also I'm amazed that I found someone else who plays guitar with Jazz III picks! I've got a friend who plays bass who gave me one and I rarely use it because it makes my hand cramp up after a bit. Ahh well, all of my friends say I've got Yaoi hands, so that's probably why.

[@goldesenor9475]

This sounds when you get approach to the metal-concert level puzzle after Clock clock wood level

[@IceDise]

How metal can one's childhood turn into?

[@Little-She-Devil]

Unlike the way he bobs his head without moving his body. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

[@Lisssssard]

❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@lpsp442]

Nice wicked witch laugh

* Headbang intensifies *

[@wild_greebo]

Melody reminds me of the nursery rhyme "teddy bears picnic"

[@bilbomcbaggins]

Edward Danvers That's what it's based on!

[@AtomDarkheart]

Set it to 1.5, trust me. You'll get an HD version of one of his previous mixes.

[@falllenshadow]

tasty jams. wanna put this on toast.

[@dutchpotato3557]

Yo sweet teddy Bears picnic cover

[@claystate2169]

Sub'd!

[@BirchPig]

I can't decide if you or +familyjules7x did it better

[@chippisc7120]

Birch Pig good point :D i guess it's this one to me... but close!

[@BirchPig]

Austin K. and i still cant decide

[@DanielA-yg3un]

Or Gabocarina96! He's not very well know but his Gruntilda's Lair remix and the recent(ish) final battle themes are pretty stellar.

[@Rodaxoleaux]

You should do FFX battle theme o3o

[@cata4526]

* - */ Me encanta

[@maxwilhelmi4354]

I wish Kirkhope stumbles upon this one day

[@wackstickles2]

didnt you cover this a few years back or am I getting confused with someone else? edit: It was the final battle my bad!

[@guitarded222]

[@rickykeim2005]

where can I buy every cover you've ever done?

[@ToxicxEternity]

:O!! I have all of my covers available on iTunes and Amazon. Besides my latest, they're all grouped up into albums Volumes 1-9. It's quite a lot but thanks so much for the awesome support! www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=toxicxeternity

[@rickykeim2005]

your music has improved Tekken 7 thanks. the earliest album that was on amazon was vol 4. Id like to buy the rest of them too. your covers are awesome.

[@DrNomad-mu4ol]

Was this the song that sent Randy Stair over the edge?

[@thehonorablereverendaddiso1943]

Dr. Nomad Yes. Everyone says it's some waifu shit, but really he was drivern into a metal induced frenzy by the c over and had to take people down as fast as possible
