Here’s the results of last month’s community vote for the top ten pony songs of November, enjoy!
Punk
Francis Vace – Everfree EP | Rock
Not for the first time, Francis Vace has made a nice little EP of cover songs, in a variety of his favourite styles. Last year he performed his favourites from the 3rd Equestria Girls movie, and now he’s taken on the 4th – Legend of Everfree. 4 songs from the film ranging in genre from punk to reggae, and of course with a bit of his signature ska sound twisted in here and there. If you’re a fan of his original work, you’re sure to enjoy his take on these songs too. And best of all, you can download it entirely for free from his bandcamp page!
The Wonderbolts Band – RAINBOW | Garage Rock
Rejoice everypony, The Wonderbolts are BACK with a new song, and this one is ready to ROCK the concert hall! A mighty ponification of Threshold from the fictional band Sex Bob-Omb, it pays tribute to The Rainbooms in much rock spirit, bringing those delightful Garage/Indie/Punk Rock vibes, in an amazing performance and along a very fitting music video made by the band’s drummer, Wootmaster. This is making you want to cheer for the band with a hoof in the air at the gig, or salute the members as you luckily spot them coming out of the garage rehearsal room and carrying their instruments in their cases! Show your support to The Wonderbolts, because this pony band is awesome, and keep rocking!
Quicksilver – A Better Place | Pop Punk
It’s somewhat unusual to see instrumental pieces from Quicksilver, but by no means are they of any lesser quality than any of his other work. And perhaps in this instance it’s for the better. When words fail to express emotion, music sometimes does a better job. A great tribute piece Quicksilver, well done.
(I dunno how to write things like this properly, so also *hugs*)
The L-Train – Party Cannon Overdrive (feat. Francis Vace & TheMusicReborn) | Skacore
This is my jam!! An amazing fusion made possible by a most lovely collaboration, this Skacore track blends Francis Vace‘s Ska-Punk style and vocals with The L-Train’s signature Metal sound for a combination of vocal styles and an instrumental of much originality and force, sublimated by a masterful trumpet play from TheMusicReborn. While it looks like our friend Anon is in trouble, we sure are getting the special treatment from Pinkie as she inspired such a wonderful collab. Among the delightful Ska vibes, the heavy guitar riffs, and both the softer and harsher vocals from Francis, this impressive song will take any party to its peak, perhaps triggering an Overdrive!
MetalPony – Friendship Was Tragic | Pop-Punk
Time for some heavier pop-punk about Starlight Glimmer from MetalPony, even if it’s only a little piece it’s still pretty cool. Power chords and fast paced drums aplenty, with a few subtle tempo changes for a bit of variation.
Prince Whateverer – Reinvent | Album | Metal
New Prince Whateverer album? New Prince Whateverer album! It’s been 3 years since his debut (mini-)album, Rediscover, and after having built up a collection of single YouTube releases since then, he has recently finished Reinvent (I’m noticing a pattern here with the names). Catch the full writeup, track-by-track, of this glorious 16-track LP after the break…
Crusader! – Detective Rarity | Pop-Punk
For all of you addicts of spy movies or just fans of Rarity in all her endeavors, rejoice because Crusader’s new release is a definitely much welcomed Pop-Punk piece about the detective talents we’ve loved to see in Rarity during the events of Rarity Investigates. Bringing enjoyable musical moods very fitting for themes of detectives and spies, the track still keeps a certain MLP-ish happy vibe, making it the perfect tribute while being quite epic.
Among The Herd – Est. 2010 (feat. StealingShad3Z) | Punk Metal
StealingShad3Z wonderful clean vocals mixed with Among The Herd’s crisp screams placed on top of a heavy hitting instrumental all come together to make for a super awesome punk metal anthem to the origins of the fandom. If that sounds like something you’re into, check it out!
Crusader! – Soaring | Alt Rock
It’s been a long time coming, but Crusader! has finally reached 1,000 subscribers on YouTube, and what a well-deserved milestone it is too! Have a classic Crusader-sounding song, some pop-punk / alt rock with a hint of harmonica.
