hey look at that:
Mandrake (from Edguy forums) said:It was me, believe it or not.
Thanks for all the compliments; I'm glad you guys liked my little tribute so much. I hoped people would get a kick out of it, and assumed it would spread around a lot, but I had no idea it would turn into its own little internet phenomenon.
Nice to see it made its way here without my even having to post it, heh heh! Here is visual proof of how I got that amazing snare drum sound:
Of course, lest you think that is the extent of my musical abilities, I would be honored if you guys would check out my REAL mp3s! The band is called Theocracy, and Harmon is doing the website (he posted a thread in the "other bands" forum). I really think some of you guys would enjoy the music; Tobi is one of my main songwriting influences, along with Steve Harris from Maiden. My music doesn't sound like an Edguy clone at all, as there are some more progressive influences as well, but you'll definitely hear the influence there--especially in the soaring choruses and big choirs.
The CD will be coming out next month on MetalAges Records. Just go to the site and click on "The Album"; there are four little MP3 clips there:
