Disguzting homosapienz!...

First of All:
This is NOT a link to any downloads of any kind.
It is a thread where you can Talk about the music from the Original Metroid game.
Stuff like maybe posting what your favorite song is or talking about your attitude towards the soundtrack as a whole.
My favorite song... is probably brinstar, although theyre all cool.

At least 8, though I;m not sure what "Zebetite" and "Silence" sound like (I 'have' Sound in Action, but a Ctrl+F of Nintendo's discography brought this up first).

Anyway, gotta be "Kraid" (odd, in that I don't much care for the giant, bulging monstrosity (these words only in praise of him)).

I think more of the original metroid music should've been left in SM, but ZM music > original metroid music.

As had been pointed out/complained on by others, there is a lot of chorus stuff in ZM. I get it's supposed to be Chozo-y or somethin', but where, just where are those hums and "ahh"s coming from? Remixes/ReMixes have been pretty good to "Kraid['s Lair]".

The soundtrack has 10 songs (+2 jingles).

I think the FDS version of the game has inferior music. The wavetable channel sounds absolutely dreadful.

Annoying

To name them all:

1. Title
2. Brinstar
3. Norfair
4. Kraid
5. Ridley
6. Boss/Tourain
7. Mother Brain
8. Item Room
9. Obtained Item
10. Credits

Good joy RT-55J, have a cookie. Not many are good, especally compared to some of the other NES games, but Brinstar and Kraid catch my fancy every once and a while.
