MOTHER 2 by the Zippers

there’s a band in Salem OR that quotes a bit of pollyanna in a guitar solo.
and I’m pretty sure another of their songs had some lyrics from the halloweenbound hack (I only heard it live)

are you familiar with the hip hop project that The Adventures of Duane & Brand0 started? It unfortunately was not finished due to their breakup

@King: What band is that? I’d love to check them out sometime :3

This is the unfinished Duane and Brando Earthbound LP
Warning: It contains some foul language.

That’s pretty amazing. Going to have to look into it.

Seriously, where do you find this stuff?

I had a band the played house parties often. We did a Mother 2 montage. It started with the “choose a file” song, then the hotel song, and ended with a punk version of smiles & tears. I have an old VHS tape of it somewhere. The party really liked it .. although no one knew what it was but us. I’ll try to look for it.

@PK Pirate: Just a heads-up, BrandO is planning on starting over and making an EB song from scratch. That will be fun to hear once he gets to work on it.

This song kind of reminds me of this song:　http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fvscncsyb1E

I’ll just stick to Three Days Grace and Breaking Benjamin,but they did better than anything i could do.=D

Sounds pretty good. I’ve been trying to get people at my school to form a band for years, but everyone I’ve found is either already in a band or doesn’t want to be in one.

There’s a japanese chiptune artist called DENTAKU, one of his CD’s, an EP called “Sponge room”, has a Mother cover pic.

The music sounds of course very similar to Mother, in all its Famicom fashion, but they’re not covers, all original songs.

^ I also sent an email to Tomato once about that, but he didn’t post it so I guess he didn’t consider it too important

I think I know why the song is called “MOTHER 2″.
The bass part is quite similar to the bass part found in the file select music from EarthBound. In fact, there are probably even more MOTHER 2 music quotations in the song. I just can’t think of any more.

I didn’t really hear anything that seemed to be inspired by MOTHER 2. :-\

Me and a few guys from starmen.net have a band that is dedicated to covering MOTHER music.

I like how almost none of the comments in here are about the band/song.
Not to say they’re amazing or anything, but I’ve already listened to the song like 3 times, so I’d say I like them. <3

i hear the twinkle elementary music!

im the only one who hears it !?

I hear it too. Also this song rocks!

The singer seems a little out of her range at the top end, but that’s neat.

liarxagerate: Yeah, I agree the singer seems a bit over her head at times, but all in all a fun song. I can hear a bit of the light-hearted Mother influence in there.

The band ‘!!!’ – which is a decent band all things considered, briefly used a picture of onett on their myspace page for one of their songs. This was back in their ‘myth takes’ days and it’s no longer up.
