PitchBlackOkami I've always been a fan of Metal Sonic (favorite character from the Sonic franchise as a matter of fact!) so it blows me away that they did a song like this, let alone so well! Great job! Favorite track: Metal Destruction (Sonic 4 Metal Sonic).

Jim Nomad Everything the Blast Processors put out is better than the last. I was very impressed with Genesis, and their cover of True Survivor managed to top that, but Chaos Rising has absolutely floored me. Looking forward to the next release! Favorite track: Hard Times (Ice Cap Zone).

Jeffhog As awesome as the EP is altogether (A+ rendition of Metal Sonic's boss theme, wonderful cover of The Jetzons' "Hard Times", and a cool as heck Chemical Plant arrangement), "The Calm Before The Storm" STEALS THE SHOW. <3 Favorite track: The Calm Before The Storm (Lava Reef Zone).

LYRICS (ONE TWO THREE FOUR) Metal: I do not breathe; I cannot feel I do not care which one is real Your will to live put to the test What separates you from the rest I'm stronger now You cannot win Against the evil that's within No blood to bleed; no bones to break Now let's see HOW MUCH CAN YOU TAKE Chorus: There's no where to run There's no where to hide How do you kill what's not alive Born into godhood Coming for you and I can never stop (never stop) I will not rest until you are dead Hatred is programmed in my head Built for destruction Coming for you and I can never stop (never stop) Sonic: Your blue facade, your hardened stare You look like me, you think I care Yeah you can fly but I am fast Let's figure out who's best at last We've done this dance too many times You've gone too far you've crossed the line Your time has come roll up your sleeves There's one way out and IT'S THROUGH ME (Chorus) Metal: There's no escape The hour is getting late Get down on your knees I'm gonna make you bleed Sonic: You think the battle's won I'm sure you've had your fun But now I'm gonna win So let the games begin Metal: It's time to choose Whether win or lose If you surrender the ones you love Will be spared Sonic: I am the hero blue They won't remember you You think you'll best me But you're not the first to try Together: I will make you understand the emptiness inside I will never understand the emptiness inside

LYRICS If I could have all the women in the world I would take this time to leave The pressure's on and I'm not some kind of strong man So take this pain from me Don't give it a second thought I can see you've got better things to do So just take your things and leave Hard Times Happiest days of my life Hard Times gone by (x2) Late at night with the darkness all around me I'm drinking all alone Nothing here but my medicine to guide me Since I've been on my own Will I be forgotten now? Memories that continue to amaze me Are all but over now Hard Times Happiest days of my life Hard Times gone by (x4)

LYRICS Sonic: There's trouble brewin' Neurons in my head feel like they're gonna pop (Want to but I can't stop) My brain is fumin' Gotta clear my mind before I hit the drop I'm feeling toxic waves of fire Mach ten's my number one desire Treadin' water gets me higher Through this endless acid spire (Drowned in ink) No time to think in this drink (Gone insane) Veins in pain but I need it (Poison slime) Out of time but I feel fine (Feel the rush) This addiction is chemical Robotnik: The water's risin' You've got no idea how deep that liquid goes (Fallin' down the rabbit hole) It's so surprisin' How little it will take before you overdose The sludge is risin' up around your neck I'm gonna drown you in this Mega Mack* Oblivious to danger is your state of mind Toxins in your body will keep you in check (Drowned in ink) No time to think in this drink (Gone insane) Veins in pain but you need it (Poison slime) Out of time but I feel fine (Feel the rush) This addiction is chemical Sonic: Oh man I-I don't feel so good What's in this water? Gotta just keep on going, get to the next air bubble How long have I been under water? Oh no. Uh, okay. Alright. Just make this jump and the next one Okay wait for the platform to come around. C'mon, c'mon! (Panicked mumbling) My head is clearin' This factory of death won't be my resting place The end is nearin' 'Cause when I catch my breath your voice will be erased Robotnik: You think you're free, you think you're clever But this raw feeling lasts forever Relax and feel the venom coursin' through your veins Your insubordination will not break these chains S: No time to think in this drink R: Veins in pain but you need it S: Out of time but I feel fine Both: This addiction is chemical

LYRICS Wayward stranger Lost inside A dark and hazy dream Too late now Water rising And we're in too deep Come with me Take my hand We'll travel through the stream The burning Feel the fire deep inside of me (Chorus) And I know that we will make it right In time it's true we'll win the fight But for now let's cherish what we have For blood will soon be drawn It's the calm before storm Hold your loved ones Say goodbye The light will soon be gone No running Stand your ground We will be fighting on The moment is at hand The army's closing in Stay focused Steel yourself Come morning It begins (Chorus) (Solo) (Chorus)

about

The Blast Processors are a SEGA Video Game Cover Band based in Toronto, Canada. They claim to have travelled from the Year 2101 AD where a terrible war, precipitated by the console wars of the 1990’s, has ravaged mankind. Having missed their time modulation by some decades, they resolved to rock.

This is the second EP album from The Blast Processors, covering songs from Sonic 2 to Sonic 4 Episode 2.
