Another track from the A Little Bit For Charity project. This cover features some rhodes and bells, and is topped off with Candice’s harmonies to turn this already poppy song into a cute indie pop track.
Rock
Reverbrony – Echoes of the Abyss | Metal
Shoo be doo? Reverbrony’s latest song has a lot of atmospheric elements to give a the haunting feel of isolation beneath the ocean. Also Lyra as a seapony with swordfish-style armour. You can’t go wrong with that!
Ponysphere – Sweetie Monster | Metal
This one song from Ponysphere sure isn’t for the faint-hearted, so if you’re not afraid of the unusual, do check this out and partake in the madness after the break.
Quicksilver – Six and One | Album | Rock
Known for his hard-rock tracks and as one half of the ska-punk project Luna Ticks, Quicksilver is one of the best up-and-coming rock musicians in the fandom right now, and he’s just released his debut album, Six and One! And following a common theme among collections of songs you find in this fandom, it’s based on the Mane 6 and Spike. Catch the full writeup after the break.
Ponysphere – Time Heals | Melodic Death Metal
Like the perfect spiritual heir of My Past Is Not Today, this much welcomed Melodic Death Metal track from Ponysphere stands out as a masterfully crafted tribute to the wonderful character of Sunset shimmer, being beautiful and strong at the same time. With even subtle Folk Metal notes, this journey through emotional melodies and powerful instruments and vocals is all but failing at displaying the strength and unique charms of Melodic Death Metal (my favorite metal subgenre, by the way). And I’d say that Time Heals indeed, despite much controversy on the saying, I found that it’s actually true!
ChickenSteve – Just A Lie | Synth-Rock
Isn’t it wonderful when fan songs complete or extend the depth present in the show? This new song from ChickenSteve is a fine exemple, with all the events of No Second Prances and Trixie’s depth of character surfacing again in a musical way, not without that ability of triggering powerful emotions all over again, a magic that I’m calling Passion and that we can all awaken to. Food for the soul, heartfelt ode to Trixie, or blissful music masterpiece, there are many ways to appreciate this wonderful song. Don’t forget to show your gratitude to the artist and to life, and keep feeling powerful things!
The Shake Ups In Ponyville – Cupcake Versus Muffin | Pop Rock
The Shake Ups have another song from their album ROCK CANDY for us. Known for their fun “power pop” songs, this one is no exception, and attempts to tackle the age old question of “cupcake or muffin?” I say, why not both?!
The Pieces – In Our Town | Indie
Something new from the A Little Bit For Charity project, where indie bands cover mlp songs for charity. This time it’s a cover of Our Town by a band called The Pieces. It’s got an…interesting vocal style, it’s something a little bit different, shall we say?
P1K – Ignorance and Bliss | Punk Rock
You may have seen him at the pony musicians panel at EFNW 2016, it’s P1K aka Pony1Kenobi, and he’s back with a delightful rock tune for us all to enjoy! Don’t forget, rather than getting blinded by the bliss of ignorance, always reach out to the truth! (bonus points to anypony getting that reference)
Quicksilver – I Can Relate | Hard Rock
Both as a celebration of reaching 500 subscribers, and in anticipation of his upcoming album, Quicksilver has posted a new song from the soon to be released Six And One. A hard rock song for the toughest mare in Ponyville, this one’s for Applejack and her good old dedication. Congrats on reaching 500 subs Quicksilver, looking forward to the album!
