As a fun fact Janne used to play the bless the child intro as an intro to sixpounder in 2004

Fuck me, is this Downfall's main riff?

It totally is. Even the chord change is the same!

just randomly, I was watching a video about Roland MT-32 and video game music history in general when it came up. Turns out the composer for this piece is a pretty famous guy as well, apparently he wrote the Miami Vice theme

 

[Whiteknuckle Deathgrip]

Fuck me, is this Downfall's main riff?

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKING FUCK.
Consider my mind blown, and for once I’m really lost for words. This must be from way back when he and Jaska would sit around and play videogames. Either it just stuck with him, or he must have thought about those times again somewhere around ‘99.
It is a badass riff though. Can’t believe we all headbanged to this shit. Oh welll, I’ll never stop anyway.
