    Default Black Mages

    What do you think? And while we're at it whats your favorite Black Mage's song.

    I think they are freakin brilliant. I like Battle With Seymour.

    I like the Black Mages quite a bit, I hope they keep doing more stuff. It's hard to choose a favorite, but I guess I'll go with Maybe I'm a Lion.

    Clash on the Big Bridge is possibly my favorite from their first cd, with Those Who Fight Further possibly coming in a close second.

    On their second, none of them can compare to The Skies Above. It fulfills so many dreams in one not-quite simple song.

    But Maybe I'm a Lion is hot also, and Blue Blast!

    I've never really listened to them, which makes me feel bad. I want to, but I'm really sure what to expect, since I haven't done any research; I just know of them.

    Maybe this will thread will inspire me, but most likely I'll forget by the time I leave this forum. :strung:

    They are great. I don't recall a specific song I preferred, but I enjoy what I have heard of theirs.

    They are awesome. They're like, I dunno, Japanese hard rock. They rule. (Of course, I am biased. I always role-play as a Black Mage.)

    One copy was probably genuine while the other copy was a perfectly shaped fake slightly illegal made in taiwan copy.

    I really liked the first album, but the second wasn't that great. Most of the tracks were decent at best, aside from Otherworld and The Skies Above. They were horrible. Female vocals do not sound right with Otherworld. The Skies Above was worse. The music was great, on par with the first album. If they would have left it at that, it would be fine. But, NOOOOOOOO.. That singing made me want to rip my ears off and toss them in the blender.

    The skies above is brilliant, pure genius madness andsomehow it just... works...

    Now everytime ihere the original song I can picture the lyrics in my head... ARGHHH...

    That said, generally I think their good, most songs are a light improvement over the original, some are better and the odd one or two is worce. But I do enjoy their music, thumgs up from me.
