Quite possibly my new favourite song of all time. Metal-Mary's voice is perfect for the tone and theme (and beautiful as well). Thank you both for making it, and thank you for posting it!
This is amazing. I've been listening to this for a very long time, and I feel bad that I'm only just now saying something, but serious. Awesome work, everyone. You and Metal-Mare just do awesome things together. Kudos! :D
I am continuously amazed at the incredible talent of the fans of this show. I am not really one for metal, but you have pulled off one of DNotive's songs perfectly, and now you have one more fan added to your list. Bravo, take a bow... I'll let Equestria Daily know of this if anyone hasn't done so already. KimonoPony aka Kimonoskunk
I heard about the charity album! It's amazing what this community has been able to do with it's energy and positivity in such a short time together. I've only recently joined the herd and I'm still learning, finding my way around. Anyway, even if you don't have time for another metal PMV, you and the other musicians and artists constantly make my day a better place :)
Also, you pulled this cover off very well. Often, a cover can be quite difficult to pull off, but you manged to keep the same level wonderful-tastic-ness that the original had. Good work.
Thanks, that's awesome to hear. We're still working on that album (it's hard to get everybody together), but it's sounding good so far. Way better than those demos up online.
HOT DAMM! Symphonic metal, one of my favorite types of music + Vicious Lies, one of my fav fan-made pony songs = epic win! Would love to hear more covers of pony songs from you (or something completely original, that would be awsome too).
Awesome! Coconeru is wonderful; I can't wait to release the things we've been working on together. We've been holding on to them for quite some time and we're almost ready to release them.
Sweet Metal Luna. You sold me on the title alone. The opening guitar work put this in my favorites. And then the vocals kicked in. I need something higher tier than "Favorite" to put this in. I need a "Godly music" folder for this or something..
Everything always needs more guitar! I just wanted to make sure this one sounded a certain way...there's always more music, though. Maybe I'll do something more like Satch or Vai or something.
Thanks, dude! d.notive writes great music; it's pretty simple to make the song do what you want, when it's already good...then you add guitar solos... \m/
Thank you! Not sure if I have the time to do this kind of stuff that often, considering my main band, S.I.G.M.A. Project, can often be found in this genre. It's so fun, though, that I might...but I'm doing other stuff first.
There are a lot more bands that come out of Europe who sound like this than North America. It's generalizing quite a bit, but this song was covered for pony fans not really for the KVLT-est of metalheads (my metalhead status notwithstanding). I'm talking bands like Nightwish, Lacuna Coil, Within Temptation, etc. That symphonic, gothy, poppy kind of metal. "Poppy" as its harmonic/melodic accessibility, not using the word for any degradation.
I would do more, and I'd especially love to collaborate more. I AM, however, working on a massive project with Fallout: Equestria Radio. It should be starting to really roll, soon. Can't tell you when, though, or what I'm doing with it. It'd ruin the surprise...
It was fun to listen to as well :) I love MLP, and I love metal. Therefore, yes, my fun has been doubled! Huzzah! Can't wait to hear more if you decide to make any for us.
I know I'm doing a big collab for a charity album coming this fall, but as far as other metal...I dunno. If the inspiration strikes and I have time, which, because of all the Fallout: Equestria stuff, may not happen that soon...but you never know. Metal is way more easy for me than the electronic stuff I've been so into, lately....
Wow, Amazing... You have to do a cover of One Last Letter! I always thought of how amazing it would sound with a female voice like evanescence or something similar. I think you're perfect for that. Please do it!
"Nurse, what happened to him?" "He listened to a metal cover of Vicious Lies, doctor." "Mother of God! We need 100 cc's of Slayer, stat! Nurse, prepare the Megadeth, this man needs more guitar solos." Also, thank you.
While I am very wary of anything MLP + "Metal" (Metal Little Pony??), This Broke The Cake Barrier I'm going to follow your band now, as I terribly love this (and you mixed the vocals just fine. Don't be such a silly filly.)
Oh, forgot to ask: Would you mind if I use a part of this as an intro to some videos I"m working on with a friend? Not saying that I WILL use it, just add it to the list of potential choices.
It's music like this and the Brony community in general that made me actually brave the RUclips comments section for the first time ever! If you have time to make another song, I'll be there, front row centre with my best Fluttershy cheer :) I'm also working on a fanfic to submit to EquestriaDaily (submission guidelines, so intimating >.
2 things you should know: Cyril exists. Therefore there will always be pony metal. Also, somepony explained to me the significant absence of decent pony metal comes from the skill, equipment, room for said equipment, and overall time it takes to record prevents ponies everywhere from flooding the internet with awesome pony metal. This is why the community is saturated with lots of techno, electronica, dance, and other forms of music that can be made 100% off of one's computer.
I was wondering if I could make a request...? Could you do a remake of D'Notive's 'After Hours with Rarity...? Now that I would pay to hear.... KimonoPony aka Kimonoskunk
This is badass. I've heard the singing style before, but for the life of me I can't remember where exactly. I want to say Within Temptation, but that doesn't seem right.
Quite possibly my new favourite song of all time. Metal-Mary's voice is perfect for the tone and theme (and beautiful as well). Thank you both for making it, and thank you for posting it!

Thank you very much. Glad you like it.
I am absolutely amazed... most people fail to truly realize what symphonic metal actually is, but this is without a doubt remarkable!
I am continuously amazed at the incredible talent of the fans of this show.
I am not really one for metal, but you have pulled off one of DNotive's songs perfectly, and now you have one more fan added to your list.
Bravo, take a bow...

I can't even find appropriate words to say how great this song is. It's just so beautiful, and solo is really awesome.

This girl's voice is the most beautiful I have ever heard of any pony related vocals, ever. Absolutely awesome!
I'm addicted to this song. You've really gotta do more music like this, at least do a cover with this kinda style on it, ITS FREAK'N EPIC!!!
Thanks, dude. Been thinking about it. It WAS fun to do...
Well, thank you so much. d.notive is a wonderful songwriter.
Also, you pulled this cover off very well. Often, a cover can be quite difficult to pull off, but you manged to keep the same level wonderful-tastic-ness that the original had. Good work.
Well, thank you for being open minded and knowing your stuff. I'm always on the lookout for different genres to tackle.
Thanks, that's awesome to hear. We're still working on that album (it's hard to get everybody together), but it's sounding good so far. Way better than those demos up online.

Would love to hear more covers of pony songs from you (or something completely original, that would be awsome too).
My mind is pasted on the wall behind me. Seriously, this is stunning.
Oh heck yes! That's one of my favorite pony songs ever, and this style/her voice would work so well with it! Do it do it do it!
Awesome! Coconeru is wonderful; I can't wait to release the things we've been working on together. We've been holding on to them for quite some time and we're almost ready to release them.
still in my top 5 songs from the community and thanks for introducing me to this sub genra
Well, My body certainly wasn't ready for this. I'll have to play this again just to restart my vitals, like a Metal Defibrillator of sorts. :D
Sweet Metal Luna. You sold me on the title alone. The opening guitar work put this in my favorites. And then the vocals kicked in. I need something higher tier than "Favorite" to put this in. I need a "Godly music" folder for this or something..
One of my favorite genres + ponies + great singer = an amazingly awesome song ^-^
Keep up the great work!
Instrumental link is now in the description. GO SING IT!
Wow, thank you so much! It was really fun to make.
Very good. I love this style. MIxing wasn't bad, sure it wasn't OMG LOUD mastering but it was clear and crisp.
Everything always needs more guitar! I just wanted to make sure this one sounded a certain way...there's always more music, though. Maybe I'll do something more like Satch or Vai or something.
A fantastic new version of this song!
we need more symphonic metal music plz i love this song
Thanks, dude! d.notive writes great music; it's pretty simple to make the song do what you want, when it's already good...then you add guitar solos... \m/
Mah gawd! So good! Excellent job here, my friend. I definitely want to collab with you in the future!
Thank you! Not sure if I have the time to do this kind of stuff that often, considering my main band, S.I.G.M.A. Project, can often be found in this genre.

Thanks, dude. It was super-fun to play, too!
I love Mary's voice; I want her to sing on EVERYTHING! We have a new song coming out pretty soon. So fun!
That was bloody awesome.
At some points it reminded me of bands like Lacuna Coil and Evanesence too, which, in my opinion, is a good thing.
Thanks. I fall on the quiet side of the loudness war; I just like that snap and my bass too much!
well this is all kinds of incredible
This was great, one of the types of songs I struggle to praise with words. Its just one of those "HOLY BISCUITS" type deals.
Right? She's ridiculous. I have no idea how she does it. It's magical.
Another wonderful song ^_^ Keep up the good work!
Can't wait to work with her on our upcoming collab. : )
Impressive. You and Metal-Mary have a lot of potential. With some better mixing this could sound really pro.
Thank you so much! EQD did put this up when I uploaded it. *Bows*
I would do more, and I'd especially love to collaborate more. I AM, however, working on a massive project with Fallout: Equestria Radio. It should be starting to really roll, soon. Can't tell you when, though, or what I'm doing with it. It'd ruin the surprise...

Haha! I just got a bizarre image of your brain pasted with actual paste and tape to the wall! But, seriously, thank you.
Quality stuff, OP. I'm not a huge fan of the genre, but you were bang on the money. Cheers.
Thanks. Hopefully I can make some more metal in the future. It's the genre with which I'm most familiar.
ooohhhhhhhhh, I see, thanks for clarifying. Amazing song btw :D!
I know I'm doing a big collab for a charity album coming this fall, but as far as other metal...I dunno. If the inspiration strikes and I have time, which, because of all the Fallout: Equestria stuff, may not happen that soon...but you never know.

Oh this is brilliantly done. Why not include it in your performance queue?
This is pretty much the best song in the fandom imo
Awesome, thanks. Yeah, good 'ol symphonic metal.
Love Lacuna Coil, dude, but the solo is all Marty Friedman; I freaking LOVE that guy!
liked,faved,subscribed. Amazing remix!
Wow. This song is really well done. I wish there was a little more guitar in it, but this totally works. (I'm a guitarist, so I'm totally biased.)
Everybody loves the Metal-Mare! \m/
Not my mom! =0
But, if you're ever in the Central Valley, California. Biscuits and gravy, dude!
It's still good after finding it all those months before. :)
Thanks! It's a continuous learning process.
Wow, just wow. This is fucking awesome! ^^
I think I love you, I was only expecting an MP3
this is awesome
Wow, Amazing...
You have to do a cover of One Last Letter! I always thought of how amazing it would sound with a female voice like evanescence or something similar. I think you're perfect for that.
Please do it!
Dayuum this is good
Awesome. Thanks.
So much nightwish here. Love it
love it!
'grats on EqD! :)
When the charity album comes out, I'll be posting a video. Rock on, brother!
"Nurse, what happened to him?" "He listened to a metal cover of Vicious Lies, doctor." "Mother of God! We need 100 cc's of Slayer, stat! Nurse, prepare the Megadeth, this man needs more guitar solos."
Also, thank you.
Of course! He told me to put it up as a response to the original.
Thank you muchly!
For six minutes, a bleak moment becomes paradise... To those who made this reality, thank you!
Holy sweet jesus! *passes out*
You have a sick mind, sir...and that's why I like to call you my friend. >:D
Dude, great minds think alike, right? Haha!
Writing now, and Mary should be ready, too...
I love this song; I just had to do it!
While I am very wary of anything MLP + "Metal" (Metal Little Pony??),
This
Broke
The
Cake
Barrier
I'm going to follow your band now, as I terribly love this (and you mixed the vocals just fine. Don't be such a silly filly.)
Awesome! ^_^
Awesome *_*
Thanks, dude.
Nice!
Man, this really makes me want to listen to more progressive metal, or any European metal really. Dunno why I ever stopped, to be honest...
Oh, forgot to ask: Would you mind if I use a part of this as an intro to some videos I"m working on with a friend? Not saying that I WILL use it, just add it to the list of potential choices.
Oh, yeah, and thank you, very much!

Not that I was thinking of doing a cool, Wes Montgomery-style jazz version of it, or anything...

Thanks, will do.
Thank you.
@warbalist hahahahaXD no problem take your time, i mean you could just have said no, but i would love to be able to play this song:D
I was wondering if I could make a request...?
Could you do a remake of D'Notive's 'After Hours with Rarity...?
Now that I would pay to hear....
KimonoPony aka Kimonoskunk
You know who makes holy biscuits? MY MOM!
My word
i'm waiting :)
This is badass. I've heard the singing style before, but for the life of me I can't remember where exactly. I want to say Within Temptation, but that doesn't seem right.
And she's crazy loud! Hard to record.
Thank you. That'll brighten her day, I'll let her know.
Ha! Meedley-meedley-meedley-meeeeee!!!!
I will safely say this singing equals Miu's, which is pretty dang good in my book.
