RAD episode 257-The Megas History Repeating Blue

    If your favorite band offers you a free preview of their upcoming album, what do you do?
    You drop whatever your doing and take a listen…or five or six in Birdman’s case!

    In this very special exclusive we will be taking a look at the new album from The Megas: History repeating:BLUE. This is the first part of the double album which features music from Capcom’s Megaman 3 game reimagined as rock and roll songs. The Megas have long promised a follow up to the 2008 “Get equipped” but how does this live up years of expectations? A stellar video game soundtrack in it’s own right from Capcom musician Bun Bun whose games include Breath of fire and Megaman 10 among others…does his work translate to guitars and drums and a reinterpretation?
    We have an unofficial first single from the album inside with “History repeating part 2 (one last time) too
    Is it time to get equipped or is this history even worth repeating?

    Birdman

    Mike Dodd is the guy who always said video games could be turned into a profession and eventually it turned out he was right. Mike is a passionate nerd about all facets of nerd culture from the love of the BBC’s Doctor Who to the very latest in the fight game scene, he’s on to it and likely turned into his new obsession. Dodd was raised to love all things that were pop culture from viewing his first horror movie at five years old to owning one of the first Nintendos in North America, it’s been a childhood dominated by the controller and movie screens and he couldn’t be happier. Roleplaying games such as Dungeons and Dragons dominated the high school years and unhealthy doses of Japanese anime were frequent as he completed his education and took sometime off to explore Canada and the US. However as all good times must come to an end, a decision was made to get some experience and do something fun and learn something and meant getting involved in the media. Mike volunteered with Rogers Television and became the audio/technical director for several successful programs and decided that he should further that experience by going to college. 4 years and several massive headaches later, Mike became known as “The Birdman” of This week in Geek but that is a story for another website….

    I’m ashamed to say, but I actually didn’t know they were coming out with a new album so soon! Now, in fact! Definitely getting it.

    Unfortunately I live in Brazil and shipping fees cost an arm and leg, so I won’t be able to get a hard copy of this, which is a darn shame. But thanks to the technology of the 21st century, I’m sure to get the digital copy later this day. The Megas are one awesome band.

      This album was really such a step forward for them. I am unbelievably excited to see what comes out of them next.

      I really hope they get the Megaman X album done in the near future :) I want to hear their take on Storm Eagle!
