The Black Mages - Final Fantasy Music

Here, it's a link. Click it.

If you're an experienced Final Fantasy fan, you know that many of the more well-known and loved scores for the games were composed by Nobou Uematsu. What you may not know is that he started a band known as "The Black Mages" who perform his Final Fantasy Music, in a rock style. The site has two songs, "Those Who Fight Further" (the boss battle theme from FF7) and "Clash on the Big Bridge" (a song from FF5 in Final Fantasy Anthology). They are both performed beautifully and are must-listens.

"force your way" is their best song

Glitch's Photostream


He wants them to learn to walk and must therefore take away His hand; and if only the will to walk is really there, He is pleased even with their stumbles.

Healing hands of God have mercy on our unclean souls
once again. Jesus Christ, Light of the World, burning
bright within our hearts forever. Freedom means love
without condition, without beginning or an end. Here's
my heart, let it be forever Yours, only You can make
every new day seem so new.
Every New Day - On Distant Shores - Five Iron Frenzy

Nail pierced hands they run with blood
A splitting brow forced by the thorns
His face is writhing with the pain yet it's comforting to me

Yes, that is some good music--certainly preferable to most Final Fantasy remixes that I have heard. The concept, at least, is reminiscent of Trans-Siberian orchestra, only with entirely different thematic material.

Do you know whether the group has released any CDs or they only perform live?
Let others believe in the God who brings men to trial and judges them. I shall cling to the God who resurrects the dead.
-St. Nikolai Velimirovich

Force Your Way is the FFVIII boss battle theme.
I have their first CD. Found it somewhere in Atlanta.
