Hey guys! Here's something that's insanely nostalgic for me and it's a theme I've been wanting to shred up for a while!
Forbidden Memories is one of my favorite games for the ps1 and it was definitely at a height of my love for Yu-Gi-Oh with the anime being super popular at the time as well.
This theme pops into my head all the time with its insanely catchy melody and beautiful chorus. The challenge I faced with this arrangement was preserving that trance vibe of the original but trying to make it a crushing metal track as well. I feel like if I messed with the drum beat too much, it would lose the epicness; so I left it very faithful to the original, until the chorus that is. :)
However, on guitar, the melodies came out SO good and it translates so flawlessly. Same goes for the rhythm guitars playing the backing part. Such a pummeling back beat. I feel like these melodies and riffs are what drew me to cover this initially!
I had so much fun putting this together and I'm so glad to have finally made this into the cover I've been imagining it being. I hope you guys enjoy it as well!
