Comment:

240 minutes long. It goes with the Terror-tory. The last installment of possilby the longest album in history. Welcome to hell, or VGM's version of it. Here you will find Castlevania and Dracula, Ninjas, earth's last defense force, earthworms in hell, Firebrand the Demon, Arthur in a never ending battle against the undead, a nut with a flaming yo-yo, ikari warriors, and lots, and lots, of zombies... Castlevania continues here with the superb hits from Super Castlevania IV from SNES. They are arranged in a linear order and laid on both sides. Some old ground is revisted here, with new arrangements of Beginning, Bloody Tears, Theme of Simons, and Vampire Killer, but the new stuff is equally great. This 4 sided album culminates with Dracula Battle, a great moody track. One of the best semi-ambient semi-jazzy tracks ever:

THE SUBMERGED CITY: ( http://youtube.com/watch?v=2LESK22HKc4 ) Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts is one of the hardest games of all time, hopefully this song will get you through:

HAUNTED GRAVEYARD: ( http://youtube.com/watch?v=xDRUhhBVrng ) Earthworm Jim has some nutty music. What the Heck is fabulous. Night on Bald Mountain into elevator music with lawyers screaming as they are being tortured behind you in hell. Classic. Also on here is See Jim Run, Run Jim Run. It' is just a redo of Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata but it so wondeful. All Jim music here is from SNES, far superior to that of the PC music. Ikari Warriors and Rygar are two somewhat obscure NES games but both have great instantly catchy soundtracks. All 3 NES Ninja Gaidens appear here. Act 4-2 (Ryu's Determintation to some) from Ninja Gaiden is still one of the best stage themes in the history of games.

ACT 4-2: ( http://youtube.com/watch?v=zP_D_YKnwi0 ) Zombies Ate My Neighbors has very good and very bizzare music. Zombie Panic, Pyramid of Fear and Curse of the Tongue are standouts, but really it's all so wondefully insane.

ZOMBIE PANIC: ( http://youtube.com/watch?v=BNCenv7wPFE&feature=related ) Demon's Crest takes the demon Firebrand from the NES Gargoyle's Quest game and plunges him headlong into intense demonic battles overlayed with some of SNES' greatest overlooked tracks.

BEYOND THE COLOSSEUM: ( http://youtube.com/watch?v=23a0NfFVOYo ) Finally like U.N. Squadron on part 1 we have our shooter. This time is is E.D.F. or Earth Defense Force. Known as Supewr Earth Defense Force on SNES, the music here is from the arcade game and not the SNES port. Like Squadron every track from this game is amazing. It is also happens to be one of the greatest shooters, please use the vulcan. The Terror-tory image here is the map from Castlevania II for the NES. As promised in part 1 here are the hot links. Everything is free and safe, you have to register for one, please do so. SNES MUSIC: ( http://snesmusic.org/v2/select.php?view=sets&char=n1-9&limit=0 ) SO MANY FREE MP3's: ( http://www.flyingomelette.com/gamemusic/mp3download_a.html ) REGISTER FOR FREE: ( http://forums.ffshrine.org/showthread.php?t=39734&highlight=goronmoron ) GAMES AND SOUNDTRACKS: ( http://forums.ffshrine.org/showthread.php?t=38084&highlight=ninja+gaiden+nes) Thanks for playing!
