Behold thе new rite
A chosen force of pale eyes
A hidden threat to you
The flame of stern plight
A secret source for exiles

dirty work the unbelievable album that you are....... like Under A Paper Moon (with the iconic and perfect screams at the end), the perfection that is Return The Favor, the quick wit and absolute bop of Get Down On Your Knees, Heroes which has one of their best bridges EVER, not to mention the absolute fan favorites that are Time-Bomb, Guts, A Daydream Away....... dirty work I love you so much forever and ever 💙

you ever hear a song from a band you've never heard before that makes you fall in love her second you hear it?
So you spend all day listening to it, you've got the lyrics memorized by nightfall, you've got little choreo steps you can hit when you need to, already know which notes you can bridge and which you'll break trying to stretch toward, right?
You're obsessed with the fucking song and you don't know why, but that's okay, because it's a great song and music is the answer. But you're curious, so you go listen to some other songs by the band. Their most popular songs, older ones, newer ones, whatever they've got on the net! But 20 songs later you're disappointed and wondering 'how is it they only made ONE song I like? That seems like an anomaly... not even a chorus on one of these other ones??'
But you can't find whatever answer you were searching for, so you decide to leave the gift horse un-surveyed. Instead you go on streaming website (name redacted because they're not sponsoring this post), load the song up, and - wait, whats the first comment say?
[ God, I miss (seemingly unrelated musical act) already ]
??? What? I mean - I'll admit the sound is kinda similar, but - Well the vibes are alike too, actually. Very similar to a big song (unrelated act) released a few summers before this song... and I do love THAT song just as I do this one. Is - Mother fucker, did they copyright infringe (unrelated act)?!
Do a small google. Turns out (unrelated act) produced this song for the 'new' band, and as such this was their last musical act together before disbanding.
This song was their final auditory gift to the world, and it feels like them. It sounds like them. It's been in my mind all day, I've listened to it 3 times since I started writing this post.
I didn't expect to be actually tearing up a little about legacies & how music is the answer, but I'm so glad I'm here. This really brightened my whlle outlook on things.

Please ignore if I clicked the wrong blog to respond to.
But I also want new Megas and Protomen :(
RIGHT?!?!
I mean, yeah, the Megas also have their takes on Skullman's theme ("Cracked Skulls"; inspired by MM4) and Chill Penguin's theme ("Chill XMas"; inspired by MMX), and I guess there's also one based on Storm Eagle's theme ("Rougmer Storm"; MMX), but I haven't listened to that one yet.
Like, I get that they have a good story arc to cover the first 3 classic games, but it would be so cool if they explored some of the themes of the following games, y'know? Or flesh out the MMX or other series music! Or hell, pick and choose some Robot Masters and make a new narrative, or like literally anything, please, people are starving over here! And it's not like they aren't still active. Don't get me wrong, I love their Castlevania stuff under the Belmonts label, but it would be nice to get Mega Man content outside of just remixes/remasters of their existing songs. Plus, they're still doing concerts, so like the audience is there for it!
And as for the Protomen, I hope that they actually end up releasing Act III at some point. Having listened to The Fight, it makes me crave it to an unhealthy degree. I love the grimdark kinda take on Mega Man that focuses more on the role that humanity takes in all of the conflict. I feel like that angle gets extremely neglected in Mega Man media.
Idk, as a fan, it's just kinda frustrating how neglected mega man gets. Like, it feels like the rare times whenever we do get content, it focuses on the first three or four games (if we're lucky), and then it just dies off! Or goes dormant for a decade or more. The franchise has so much creative potential that just isn't realized and it's so sad!

Warm Leatherette by Grace Jones has had such an impact on me that I if I heard her cover on this album first, I can't like the original versions - not only because they're generally stylistically worlds apart, but because Grace's versions filled in anything that could have possibly been missing from the original versions (that I, and possibly even the original songwriters and performers, could never have imagined)...

we literally said on twt a WHILE back that we wanted them to add god-ish to the game with a nightcord cover, but assumed we wouldn't ever get it bc the song is so easily misinterpreted and thus could be controversial to add.
BUT THE PROSEKA DEVS REALLY SAID 'NO WE AREN'T COWARDS THAT'S A BANGER AND THE EMOS CAN AND WILL SING IT LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS' AND IM JUST SO GRATEFUL TO RECEIVE??????????????? I LITERALLY THOUGHT IT WAS THE MOST IMPOSSIBLE DESIRED SONG ICB IT'S REAL IM SO EXCITED TO HEAR IT THEYRE GONNA SHRED IT MAN
