Hey guys! It's time for some more Final Fantasy VII jams! This track was an absolute joy to remake as metal. My girlfriend Anna is a HUGE Final Fantasy VII fan and she immediately requested that I jam this track when she won my Patreon raffle.
The theme works so well in that format due to the guitar riff style synths of the original. The leads are also amazingly fun to play. As I was recording the leads, I legitimately thought that some of the parts were going to be impossible for me to play properly. But after sitting there for hours and hours trying to nail each part as best as I could, they ended up becoming pretty simple and extremely enjoyable. I think I might have leveled up my lead playing significantly with this track!
I made it a point to not mess with the original arrangement too much for this track. The excitement of the original lies within the symbiosis between the percussion and the rhythm synths and I wanted to preserve that energy. That being said, I couldn't resist throwing in a solo over the main riff because it's just so fun to jam over.
I hope you guys enjoy this cover as much as I enjoyed making it!
The original "Still More Fighting" theme from the game "Final Fantasy VII" was composed by Nobuo Uematsu and Minoru Akao
Thank you to Miguel Perez for the game footage!

You completely 100% understand what makes the original such a good song. This is like you took the best parts of the original, distilled it into its purest form, and then made a concentrated wall of sheer guitar perfection.
ToxicxEternity You, MUST DO, the "FIGHT ON!" soundtrack for FF7 REMAKE! If you could just meet Nobuo Uematsu, I am positive he would bring you aboard. \m/
@@Greenman422 The added parts are there to give it more of that "metal" feeling, as the name suggests it's a metal cover and most of the metal musicians that create these covers embellish to make it fit more into that genre, if you want faithful then you want to be listening to the orchestral versions created by the origional composer, even then though i think you will find alterations due to the songs in the game being simplified versions of what the composer actually wanted due to the technology limitations at that time.
you could say is a concentrated... demon wall?
Kinda disagree. Pretty much everything is on point, but the bass/drum groove from the original version is pretty much gone.
Guitar is flawless though, cant argue about that part.
And the cover is exactly this : a guitar cover. The balance of the original is changed to be tilted toward the guitar part. Some things are gained, but some things are lost in the process, its inevitable.
@@Dopamint yeah that original bass groove was everything to me. The vibe is a bit different on this one. Toxic is legendary regardless
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how amazing Nobuo Uematsu is with his compositions? His music translates to metal so perfectly!
I believe if he could slap 2-3 gigabytes of music into the game back then, he would definitely made original version a real metal track)
That's because it's essence is metal.
normal it's inspired by dream theather
Best part is Uematsu is a huge fan of prog rock and metal. I lost it when I made it to Braska's Final Aeon. I was yelling "THEY FINALLY LET HIM DO IT"
@@puciato7540 the opening song from ffx didnt strike that for you first?
There will never be a better boss theme than this.
This has got to be at least on par!

"The Extreme" FF8.
@@moderaterevolution504 In my opinion "Force your way" is so much better than "The Extreme" and "Still more fighting" is even slightly above that.
7 people attacked Guard Scorpion while its tail was up.
lmfao
Actually at the beginning and thru that boss plays the opening bombing mission song. But I like your spirit
I didnt know you could guard until about six hours into the game so I was very confused as to why it was telling me not to hit it lmfao
now its turned 33
Due to a translation error.
Both your guitar playing and your hair are the most amazing things to ever grace my computer.
Ffs, agreed....
U try to say u never opened hxamster or pronhub?
@Stan Brule AGREED
Ahhh, those goosebumps after summoning Ifrit for the first time with the original theme 25 years ago.... Good times
Final Fantasy Remake with this Sound... Perfect and every Fan is Happy.. Nobody needs the REAL Final Fantasy Remake.
this is EXACTLY what I was hoping for when I searched, this is amazing!!
Never stop coming here for hardon rock. Thank you, sir
I love the how faithful it stays to the original with some nice stank tossed in here and there.
ものすごく丁寧に作りこまれている。非常に好感が持てる。クオリティーが高い。
P E R F E C T I O N
fucking perfect dude
Thanks so much man!
This is fantastic and you play the main riff to the exact, perfect timing. That hook is one of the best in videogame history
The fact that your girlfriend requested yet another FF7 track gives me with hope that she will request more from the amazing soundtrack!
I hope to!! (This is Anna btw!)
You've got great taste, I have to say. :)
We give thanks to you this week. FF7 music is soooooo prime and Toxic just shreds them
I've seen this countless times before but have never taken the time to comment, although I'm sure you're aware that is the easily best cover of its kind on the tube.
You focused on the most enjoyable elements of the song and elaborated on them enough to where it never gets boring, but never to the point where the spirit of the original is lost.
Hard not to think of Eric Johnson (Cliffs of Dover specifically), likely due to your grasp of musical theory and the cleanliness of your execution. Imo, it's a crime that you're not a household name.
tears on my eyes from the epicity of this cover , memories and emotions.
I can appreciate you ending the video with that guitar riff rather than just that other basic stuff. When i listen to this as a part of my playlist, it helps to ignore the fact that there is this dialogue between songs.
I just love the fact that his guitar is chuck full of materia!! Hahaha awesome cover!!
I really love how the rhythm riff at 1:14 is reminiscent to me of that classic opening battle theme riff you hear in the earlier games (and ff9 for a more recent example), it's like the old riff's cadence but it's evolved to fit this newer battle theme, which is a concept you see actualized in a lot of FF7's ost. Really cool!
Cook it hell yeah the mako flows in this man's vains
Murdered it mate best one yet 🤘🏻
Awesome cover!!! That sound!!! 🔥🔥🔥
hot damn man, that was sick
i knew you would reply! haha
Wait till the remake is released!
Very clean, not over saturated, with brightness and time to breathe. Level up! Well done!
The greatest RPG game of all time, and you played it with such class! I laughed out loud at your finger tap harmonics at times, so perfectly done. Saw some other covers didn't like them, then your name showed up, and i remembered seeing you before and now this, your channel has grown, and your patreon too! Happy for you man! You even got a girlfriend, that's into FF7? cRAZY, Awesome job!
It actually makes me appreciate the original composition so much! I love it so much after listening to this cover; such a masterpiece - both in original and even more so in this cover!
I love the Gastly and Haunter cameos
Finally a metal cover that is actually faithful to the original song.
The perfect soundtrack for the FF7 REMAKE!
JESUS!!!
I feel like commented on this years ago but I don't see it so ill here's another.
Brother. You are fucking amazing. This song gave me goosebumps. Very well done! 🤘
Are these tears...of joy? YEP!!! Thanks brotha for the bad assery that was excecated on this day!
The first time i listened to this song in a video about FF7's plot, I instantly went searching for a metal cover. Why wasn't I surprised when Toxic came up on first search result? ♥
Dude.....this is my all time favorite theme no matter how many times or variations of it. It still jams.....YOU FUCKIN ROCK!!!!!!!!!
Omg the drop to the chorus was so good
Of all the remakes I've heard, nothing competes with this one. Thank you for it. I only wish you had played it for longer for a loop.
Awesome...and really nice how you actually work the themes all together into a melting of awesomeness
Me and everyone would like to thank your gf for winning your raffle because of that we have this masterpiece
literally the best cover i’ve ever heard
this might well be the best version I ever heard !
I'm so impressed!!!
First video of you I see on TH-cam, but I can already tell it won't be the last. Amazing arrangement!
I got this game on Steam and changed all the music you've covered so far to replace the originals. It makes the fights so much more entertaining.
Oh man, with the FFVII remake getting even closer, I'm glad I revisited this!
Ah the memories of being a kid and fighting bosses for longer then needed cause I was stupid have returned. This song is wonderful.
The pinch harmonics are all in the perfect places done perfectly!
YES, great request :D
Absolutely amazing dude! Loving your mad skills, keep up the good work!
This is the litmus test of metal FF music and you nailed it dude!
Literally the best version available. Great. Great
Looped n ready for the remake, you rock man! 🤘
OMG THIS IS WHAT WAS STUCK IN MY HEAD FOR MONTHS Hell yeah, glad I accidentally stumbled across it again
Pretty rockin' throughout but around 1:50 onwards it was solid gold and left me wishing for more.
1:11, that got me good.
Fucking sick dude. it's a real shame this doesn't have more attention.. the world should see this.
0:12 those blast beats lololol omg really!? 1:57 like how you went to the octave on that other guitar part, sounded sick. Good job man, no big surprises just an awesome sounding cover the way it should be done ^^
one of the perfect covers of any song, ever
This gave me goosebumps. Masterpiece right here bro keep it up!!
You sir are man who knows how to make your guitar sing.
Man! I wish I had musical talent like this guy. I tried to learn how to play the guitar and no matter how much I practiced I never got any better even after 5 years of practice. This was flipping awesome!
Absolutely fucking sick. You remind me of a few of my metalhead guitarist friends who are also huge FF7 fans, like any honest citizen
This is definitely one of my favorites!! You rock😜
Definitely my favorite cover. You did an amazing job with this one
Well done! All the melodies are perfectly accentuated just like the original, as well as the drums following the same direction, just more kickass. Really well done :)
Fecking epic man! Had to comment.
The layering is incredible.
You manage to capture that feeling I had as a kid! Awesome dude!!!!
Parts of the solo starting at 2:00 sounded like J-E-N-O-V-A, and I loved it.
You are quite the underrated guitarist. Bravo. Encore!
Really sick stuff dude! I just discovered your channel and subscribed. As a Final Fantasy and metal fan, it's great to see material like this. Keep it up bro
Wow man great cover! This is one of my favorite game tracks of all time. I think you did it justice. Always wanted to learn how to play this on guitar but none of the chords I tried ever sounded quite right for the rhythm, but after watching you maybe I was using too many notes and not enough bends. Whoops. Either that or your backing track harmony really made it sound spot on. Anyway great job.
I'm not sure why I haven't seen this before today, but that was pretty kick ass!
Dude LOVE the tech death metal drums phrases! Fucking awesome!
Fucking clean man. Easily the best rendition of this song I have heard, and I have watched *all* of them, lol.
That was EPIC on so many levels... amazing work man!
Them licks tho..! This sounds so hard to play but you make it look so easy! :D Freaking awesome work bro! Solid mix as well!
Killed it! 🤘
This is friggin beautiful man
even nobuo uematsu's own band didn't play the lead melody during the verse on guitar. they pussied out and played it on the keyboard. nice.
The TRUE Master Exploder. 🤯
Nice. Almost sounds like it belongs in a late 90s metal album, and I love it.
You need some materia slots in that guitar.
It's pretty cool, rock + ffvii the perfect combination
People are amazing, this cover is amazing!
STILL MORE SHREDDING! Great Job, man!
best cover so far!!!
Sweet I love Motorhead's Jailbait song!
God dam this is so sick dude! ⚔
Thanks Jack and Anna for this awesome track !
:D
This was awesome to watch. Great job!!
Masterful, just pure awesomeness
I love you babe! It's beyond perfect. Thanks for supporting my FFVII habit
Truly MASTERPIECE! You nailed it!
Beautifully executed
Holy crap! That was sick!
Straight Amazing!
This is nothing short of amazing
This is the best version wow!
Awesome! Always love seeing people cover this amazing track! You did an epic job!
Wow. Nostalgia 101. Thank you sir. Amazing!
