The Legend of Zelda has some of the best music in gaming. It’s melodic, epic, and memorable. It also works pretty well when translated to heavy metal.

Octorock: The Zelda Metal EP rearranges four classic Zelda songs with a metal flavor. It is available on iTunes and Spotify.

It includes the following songs:

  • “The Lost Woods” (Ocarina of Time)
  • “Dragon Roost Island” (The Wind Waker)
  • “Stone Tower” (Majora’s Mask)
  • “Ballad of the Sky Goddess” (Skyward Sword)

The EP comes from Materia Collective, a music publisher that has also released gaming albums inspired by Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Undertale, Final Fantasy VII, and more.
