Hanging out with metal heads has taught me that a lot of why so much NES music absolutely rips is because the composers were metal heads themselves and brought their influences into 8-bit

And also prog! A lot of Final Fantasy music sounds very ELP and Yes influenced

Uematsu loves metal and prog. I think Tim Follin does likewise.
