Symphonic Metal
StringStorm - Luna’s Future (Covering Daniel Ingram) | Symphonic Metal
Undeniably a song that made much impact in S6, Luna’s Future ever continues to inspire, as the magic from its unique approach and union of talents is still powerful as ever. StringStorm aka Arkane provides here a much welcome Symphonic Metal rendition of it, sublimating Aloma Steele‘s vocals once again and paying much tribute to that fateful musical event from A Hearth’s Warming Tale. Also by the way, if you’re a pony musician and want to collab with Aloma, show her your love and interest! That would be a dream coming true!
StringStorm – Dominance! – For the New Lunar Republic (Covering Not A Clever Pony) | Symphonic Metal
This is actually not Stringstorm’s first, nor second, but third cover of Not A Clever Pony’s song For The New Lunar Republic, each one having a good 2 years of experience gained between them! Check out this latest version with meticulously programmed drums and chanting choirs to add to what’s been done in previous versions.
The L-Train presents the Royal Canterlot Symphonic Metal Orchestra – Fall of an Empire | Symphonic Metal
After 18 months in the making, and marking the longest and biggest project he’s ever created, The L-Train proudly presents to us Fall of an Empire, an opera by the Royal Canterlot Symphonic Metal Orchestra. His second symphonic rock opera, following Moonrise from early 2014, this 50-minute epic tells the rise and fall of King Sombra, and features contributions from dozens of talented artists from the fandom. Take a seat, put on your best headphones, and prepare for a musical journey unlike any other. Full album opera writeup after the break.
Elias Frost – The End Of Nightmare | Symphonic Metal
Already a masterpiece, this unveiled track from Elias Frost’s upcoming album charms with its soothing melodies and atmospheres, and reaches out to the soul with the introduction of powerful yet beautiful riffs completing the emotion from the theme and the orchestral instrumentation. Female vocalists are wanted, too, so if you are one or know somepony who might be fitting for the job, don’t hesitate to voice a suggestion!
Celestial Throne – Battle Against Time (ft. BriLizy T and Ponysphere) | Progressive Metal
Are you ready for something big? Celestial Throne just released an epic 13-minute progressive metal song with the help of BriLizy T and Ponysphere! Inspired by the season 5 finale. The song is split into several main acts, 4 according to the way the lyrics are displayed in the description, each section telling a different part of the story and having a slightly altered composition. Sit back, put on your headphones, and take a good listen to this!
GhostXb – Zapp! | Symphonic Metal
Always good to see more Powerpuff Ponies music, and even better to see more metal from GhostXb! If you’re used to Ghost’s orchestral music, imagine that, but accompanying guitars, bass and drums too. In other words epic + epic = this. What more could you ask for?
