Sweetness. I crave more Black Mages. Little is known about the new CD, but it'll have The Man With The Machine Gun, which is good enough for me.-jay

Never even heard of the first one. FF does have some pretty good music though.

Yay! Aw, too late to ask for as a Christmas present. I listened to the sample for "The Skies Above"; it's funky having the vocalist sing the lyrics in English. I don't remember that song exactly...Anybody know if they pieced that together from existing songs from the game, or is that an original from the soundtrack? Sounded like Zanarkand, but with a rock flair. (Duh.) But, in the article, they said that they were two separate songs, (the vocal version of Zanarkand and The Skies Above) so I'm not quite sure. Anyway, I'm happy! Maybe I can get around the fact that it's being released so close to Christmas...

You should give it a listen, Marth. It's really good stuff. I love it.

They just announced the full track list. Looks promising.

03. Hunter's Chance (FFIX)
04. Vamo'alla Flamenco (FFIX)

AWESOME.

Black Mages I was seriously lacking in FFIX music. These two are two of my favorite tracks.

[Katyrna]

They're doing Otherworld? Strikes me as strange, but I'll be looking forward to listening to it. *JOY* Hunter's Chance? YAY!! I love that song. Maybe I'm a Lion has been a favorite of mine, too. It's lookin' good! I can't wait.

[Perrin Aybara]

I was listening to the Maybe I'm a Lion OSV, since I forgot what it was, and it's pretty good. Nice choice.

A shame they didn't do The Landing or The Extreme from FF8, though. Heh.

What scenes are those two songs from FF9 from? I don't recognise them, and FF9 is one of the few OSVs I don't have, heh.-jay

My bro has the first CD, and it roxxors my boxxors. Can't wait.

[Sloth Master 2000]

What's the name of their first album?

[Perrin Aybara]

Just "The Black Mages". Hehe. Very original.-jay

[Marilink]

I love their Dancing Mad remix. Friggin' awesome.

I plan on buying it from gamemusic.com now. Um.. is that a reliable site to buy the first one from?

[Perrin Aybara]

I've used gamemusic.com a lot before in the past, and it's always reliable.

Sometimes you can get things cheaper at animenation.com though.-jay
