Straight outtah SOTN, aka, the greatest Castlevania game, EVER! Fun fact: the reason it gets it's name is because the symphony was composed, written and recorded first. The game itself was then coded AROUND the music instead of the other way around, which is how every other game ever made is produced.
Michiru Yamane did godly work and honestly you can kinda tell that every level is catered to her music. There's not a thing that feels out of place in that game when it comes to blending sound and visuals.
Did you know that French vampires are the strongest? To kill them, you have to shove a baguette through their heart. The process is painstaking. (that's my offering to the algorithm)
"As you can see this is a Playstation black disc. Cut number 1 contains computer data. So please, don't play it. But you probably won't listen to me anyway, will you?"
Dude, I just don't have words to say how much I love your work. This is just so pristine, ... immaculate. You'd be my number 1 guitarist I'd like to take lesson from.
Fun fact: Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath when collaborating with Christopher Lee for an album told him about how Sabbath used to watch his old Dracula movies as well as other hammer horror movies as part of their influences back in the day when writing. Dracula is not a metal fan. Dracula is the metal grandfather.
2:30 - 2:50... absolutely blew my mind how fluentless and amazing that part was, eventho i've been following Eric for years on end it still did!, Amazing job
@@johnbon6 Yeah true, Alexi will always be my biggest guitar hero aswell, me and Eric share that, wish my playing was even close to theirs but my fingers can't follow that shit XD, luckily Alexi's legacy will always live on in talented guys like him.
It's hard to be a critic when you're smiling as you play. Can't complain overall, so I won't! One of the most beloved video game music themes comes to metal! Nice work. I just wish I had as much hair as you do.
I hope you are doing well in life Eric and it is great to see you again. You are after all one of my favorite youtube guitarists. Just keep em coming man, we're here to support you all the way. You'll hit that 10 Million subs, mark my words.
CastleVania has such amazing music and with Progressive Rock or Symphonic Metal makes the CastleVania tracks a lot better. Love that blend with the classic orchestral instruments with the electric guitar & rock drums ❤, Loved your CastleVania covers man & I'm looking for the CV: Symphony of the Shred album soon, Please do these two Super CastleVania IV Symphonic Metal tracks as a request to celebrate SCVIV's 30th anniversary this October: Dracula's Theme Theme of Simon
Awesome video Erock i've been watching your videos for a while and done your covers. I wondering if you can do a Beauty and the Beast meet metal. that would be awesome.
Next Castlevania game should have this guy playing the intro. Heck since Simon Belmont entered Super Smash Bros., they (Nintendo) ought to have contacted him.
Very cool! I am just a very beginner guitar player, but with practice and dedication, I will improve and maybe some day, be half as good as you. I first heard you on the songs you did with Dan Vasc, but now, I listen to you just because I like the way you play. 🤘🤘🤘
As you can see, this is an Erock Metal Cover. Track number 1 contains metal shredding, so you should listen to it. But you probably wont listen to me, will you?
Dude this is fantastic! Hope you picked up the Gameboy Advance Castlevania collection on Switch, so many great songs on there, and it includes Dracula X!

Yep been following him since the beginning, right there with you!
@@headupdef Me too! nice to slowly watch a channel grow big over many years
And he's been absolutely slaying it this whole time
Ahh. AOL. I miss the promps that would make people mad in chat rooms. 😂😂

No way! I hope that's true.
@@forceghostburtreynolds True story bro! It's why Symphony of the Night is the masterpiece that it is!
I can also confirm I’ve heard this 🤘🏼

@@svartfrasr9755 (I'm in my attic, lookin for my playstation) lol
Man, Alucard's a beast on the guitar!
Listening to this while working on my halloween costume! Halloween isnt a holiday, its a lifestyle!
My first foray into gothic RPGs. SOTN is tied as my favorite game of all time.
That's really more of a Metroidvania with RPG elements, but hey, it's definitely a good game to come into the series on.
A great one, for sure. Though my favorite gothic styled PS1 game has to be Soul Reaver.
Tied with what?
It’s a masterpiece
@@fortheloveofking Final Fantasy X for the storytelling narrative alone.
Castlevania soundtracks are mostly amazing, metal just make them even better
This one hundred percent
Absolutely insane! The show was my gateway into the whole Castlevania scene, and this just makes everything a lot more awesome!
PLEASE COVER LUKA LUKA NIGHT FEVER
Ah, welcome then. A wonderful time to get into it during this resurgence it's seen lately.
That show was fantastic. Glad to see it bringing new fans to the series. Welcome.

Ugh. Pain... staking... ughhhh
Uff, the pun police wants to have a word with you
You need to shove a bottle of vodka in the ones who are from Rus, and they ask more!

"As you can see this is a Playstation black disc. Cut number 1 contains computer data. So please, don't play it. But you probably won't listen to me anyway, will you?"
I got that reference.
@@LaughingOwlKiller You are my brother
Hey alright, Alucard.
That solo blew me away, not for intricacy or speed, but for how beautiful it sounded. \m/
I like these ☺️
Giving the spooky season the proper start at deserves
Dude, I just don't have words to say how much I love your work. This is just so pristine, ... immaculate. You'd be my number 1 guitarist I'd like to take lesson from.
Let’s go!
So that Eric does what he loves. He is so good. It shows.
Sotn it's neglected in it's covers and arrangements and that's a travesty. Thank you for doing this one!
There should be more funky Wandering Ghosts covers.
I love the various Castlevania soundtracks, and I love your music. The two together - MORE, PLEASE! This was fantastic!!
Dude! 🤘
It wasn't that I needed this. It wasn't that we needed this. The world needed this.
Imagine if Dracula was a metal fan!
This is fantastic
Well he's fan of blood which has iron and that's a metal
Fun fact: Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath when collaborating with Christopher Lee for an album told him about how Sabbath used to watch his old Dracula movies as well as other hammer horror movies as part of their influences back in the day when writing. Dracula is not a metal fan. Dracula is the metal grandfather.
@@SMPMS8389 that's the most clever and funny thing I heard at the same time
@@svartfrasr9755 thank you pal
Mhanz!
Man, I wish this had been brought to my attention two years ago. This is freaking amazing.
Symphony of the shred indeed dude.
I don't know much about guitars so I'm not sure why, but 2:37-2:51 gave me Alexi Laiho vibes. Your stuff is legendary man.
rip Alexi
Master of Guitar!!!
What is a man? [flings his wine glass aside] A miserable little pile of chords! But enough talk! Have at you! \m/ Epic cover dude!
Um you mean miserable little pile of secrets right?
You can Control the truth@@danieltown2471
Saludos! 🤘🏻
2:30 - 2:50... absolutely blew my mind how fluentless and amazing that part was, eventho i've been following Eric for years on end it still did!, Amazing job
Had Alexi stamped all over it, and that's not a bad thing. Eric's awesome, and his influences show, but it's still his own.
@@johnbon6 Yeah true, Alexi will always be my biggest guitar hero aswell, me and Eric share that, wish my playing was even close to theirs but my fingers can't follow that shit XD, luckily Alexi's legacy will always live on in talented guys like him.
I’ve been a fan of both you and Castlevania for years Eric. Keep up the great work! You do some of the best covers on TH-cam!
🤘🏼☺️🤘🏼
This sounds so great!!! I freaking LOVE it!!!!
man such a classic banging song! great job with this one dude :)
Still my favorite Castlevania to this day! Awesome cover! :D
It's hard to be a critic when you're smiling as you play. Can't complain overall, so I won't! One of the most beloved video game music themes comes to metal! Nice work. I just wish I had as much hair as you do.
Probably the best entrance theme along with original sin in my opinion
I hope you are doing well in life Eric and it is great to see you again. You are after all one of my favorite youtube guitarists. Just keep em coming man, we're here to support you all the way. You'll hit that 10 Million subs, mark my words.
Just in time for the advance collection announcement!
Glad this channel is still alive, and doing great covers again
Damn that solo was smooth
This is very fitting with the 35th Anniversary of Castlevania happening tomorrow.
This is one of the coolest video game pieces ever.
Castlevania music is so good. I have castlevania as my ring signal
In my fav games of all time. Such an epic soundtrack. I was thinking I haven't seen one of your vids in my sub box for a while and I'm glad it's this.
This man's solos are out of this world
Been following you for years and I still go back to the og Castlevania meets metal. Can't wait for your album!
You have made my weekend, sir!
Have never smashed the like button faster in my life. Well done dude!

I instantly recognized this song. I loved that game symphony of the night one of castlevainias best games ever lot of great songs on that game.

Hell yeah Erock. Symphony of the night ost is still amazing
Hmmm.... a tad early for Spooktober, but hey I won't deny a good Spooky Metal cover of a Castlevania tune.
That single dislike must be from a Belmont, I can't imagine Dracula being any less than delighted from this cover of his home's theme.
Speechless bro.. amazing .. just amazing and love.listening to and watch u play..
It's about fucking time!!!
Missed your guitar playing so much, make me wanna rewatch the 3 season of CV on Netflix

Damn that was awesome! Nailed Castlevania again
Returning to Dracula's castle in the future and goes awesome by metal version.
Thank you so much...
Where the hell have you been. We missed you 331Erock
One of my favourite game tunes ever. Hell yeah.
Excellent.
Metal makes it more epic.
Genius of 🎸
Necromancer: I control the undead!
Vampire: No.
Erock: watch...
All the vampires become his metal groupies....
It's almost impossible to improve on Michiru Yamane, but you kill it, brother \m/
I agree completely with the impossibility. But thank you!
100 % agreed
Getting ready for Spooktober I see.
Thanks for this video.
Awesome
Awesome!
Awesome video Erock i've been watching your videos for a while and done your covers. I wondering if you can do a Beauty and the Beast meet metal. that would be awesome.
He is back!

This guitar is a creature of chaos.

Superb!
Cool
Now the tragic prince and my life would be complete
Great riffs, I enjoyed them. Any chance of Dishonored “Honor For All” cover?
YAS!!!
As you can see, this is an Erock Metal Cover. Track number 1 contains metal shredding, so you should listen to it. But you probably wont listen to me, will you?
