The Advantage - Self- and Elf-Titled (2004 & 2006)
3:27 PM
Here are the two LPs by Nintendo cover math rockers The Advantage. If you've never heard these you're in a for a treat. The Advantage features members of the band Generic plus Spencer Seim and Carson McWhirter of Hella. Very precise covers of 8-bit classics coming really to life with Seim's drumming. If you've grown up playing the NES these records are a must, otherwise they're still excellent math-rock exercises.
The first album covers more recognizable tunes in a fairly straight-forward fashion, while Elf-Titled takes a few more liberties and has significantly better production quality.
