Rock Out to Legend of Zelda With Octorock: The Zelda Metal EP

Metalhead fans of The Legend of Zelda can get a taste of their two favorite things with the release of Octorok: The Zelda Metal EP that’s recently released by Materia Collective. Featuring arrangements from Ocarina of Time, Majora’s Mask, Wind Waker, and Skyward Sword by arranger and guitarist Joel Kent, Octorock brings shreddage to several classic tunes across the series musical library.

“I’ve been a huge Zelda nerd for as long as I’ve been able to hold a controller. And I still remember my first experience with the series: watching the full moon rise over Hyrule Field during the opening cinematic of Ocarina of Time. When I start up the game and hear those opening chords it still gives me chills and probably always will. Journeying through the various titles in the series to Koji Kondo’s melodies had as much an impression on me growing up as listening to my Dad’s classic rock albums.” –  Joel Kent, Producer & Arranger
