ANTHEM ~Discography~

[Orie]

How did I found this japanese heavy metal band?
EASY! VERY EASY! ^_^
I was originally looking for 2 songs from them, "Light it Up" and "The Show must Go on", these 2 songs originally apear on the 2 OVAs of Devilman.

And the only thing I could find was the entire discography, so I downloaded it and got very surprised....

You just need to know that :
NAOTO SHIBATA is THE GENIOUS IN HERE! HE IS THE ONE GUY THAT CREATED THE DRACULA'S BATTLE PERFECT SELECTION from castlevania series. In many songs you people can catch the solo guitars that look like the songs of Dracula's Battle Perfect Selections.
And...Eizo Sakamoto is the vocal on this band, he is also in ANIMETAL band and in JAM PROJECT (in some songs)!!
They have a very cool sound! ^^

[DevilmanG]

what do you mean? never remember this anymore ..... ok i wont .....????

[QooQooQooQoo]

morrigan666, thanks very much!

But some links seems to be useless.

You can try "The Show Carries On".

[KusanagiShiro]

Morrigan, the game you are referring to is a very old PC game, dating back to 1985/1986. It is "XANADU", part of the "Dragon Slayer" metaseries.

This game was created by Nihon Falcom, which would later become world-famous among gamers for one major reason, a series which has without a doubt become one of the most beloved RPG series of all time, ranking up there with such classics as Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest and of course Final Fantasy. I am talking, of course, about the series that chronicles the adventures of the red-haired hero Adol Christin...the one, and only..."Ys".

Ys is highly renowned for its outstanding musical score composed by its in-house musical production team "Falcom Sound Team J.D.K", which was led by none other than the now-legendary Yuzo Koshiro, and featured Mieko Ishikawa, Hideya Nagata, Masaya Hashimoto, Ryo Yonemitsu, Tomohiko Kishimoto, Wataru Ishibashi and Hayato Sonoda, among others. Truly, a classic for the ages.

[BLACK☆STAR]

thanks

[Orie]

I have the complete discography of ANTHEM and i forgot to upload the rest :/

[sybnios]

hmm... which one do you recommend?

Anthem and Tightrope cause they have songs like Wild Anthem! Night after Night! and because Eizo sakamoto is on vocals!! When morrigan666 will upload the rest try every album after 2001 Seven Hills, Overload, The voices (single), Eternal Warrior, Onslaught, Immortal which is again with Eizo on vocals. Morikawa sings great ofcourse so the rest of the albums are enjoyable to listen but does not have the feeling of Sakamoto. Anthem is band that plays true heavy metal! thing that is gone these days.

[DevilmanG]

that is true, i have the ones that are in devilman, and they are great! i was waiting for some recommendations, cause i dont have that much space on my pc anymore. deleting as we speak. thx sybnios, ill take em into consideration.

No prob DevilmanG. I have the same problem with space. I have about 1,5 TB total and still no space free I think its time to buy a new hard disk!

[DevilmanG]

......!!!!!! ayayay!!! thats alot! now im too embarrassed to tell you my hardrive space!! why dont you buy one of those portable hard drives? theyre pretty good, in my opinion. planning to get one actually!

[sybnios]

......!!!!!! ayayay!!! thats alot! now im too embarrassed to tell you my hardrive space!! why dont you buy one of those portable hard drives? theyre pretty good, in my opinion. planning to get one actually!

:P haha! It happened yesterday I was at the electronic store in my neiborhood and saw a western digital external disk 1 TB with firewire for 130 Euros. I just have a fear for portable disks. I have awful past memories first day my girlfriend bought me as a present a 500 GB WD I copied a lot of stuff in about 140 GB free and then she accidentally dropped it Can't describe how I felt.. Thinking about it...

[DevilmanG]

ah, dont worry, just dont leave it near your girlfriend next time. and wow, one TB! havent seen one of those in america!

[sybnios]

ah, dont worry, just dont leave it near your girlfriend next time. and wow, one TB! havent seen one of those in america!

I will definetaly do that! Haven't seen really? Strange! There was also a grey WD external firewire disk with 2TB but it was kind of expensive. I think 159 Euros. Thats why I'll go with the 1TB.

[DevilmanG]

that is entirely up to you, but if you have the time, go ahead!! btw, i barely realized that best I and II have almost all the tracks from two of the albums i got. forgot the names right now, but anyway, does that other group sound like anthem? might be worth hearing!!
