The Adventures of Duane & BrandO

[Vandaeron 0]

These guys are old-school video game rappers. I came across them some time back, somewhere between a few weeks and a few months. My mind was completely blown by [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTCe_0KxK2w"]the very first time I heard them[/url]. And I've been listening to them, almost exclusively, ever since.

Here's some of their most noteworthy songs, for your hilarious entertainment. Oh, and um, heavy language. You've been warned.

You can also visit [url="http://duane-and-brando.com/"]their website[/url] for lyrics and such, and to download their full LP, which contains many more songs than you can find by browsing their YouTube thingy, improved versions of most of the songs that are there, and a total of 8 Earthbound tracks. Their community is pretty fun, too.

Also noteworthy is Duane's solo project, Action Adventure World, which you can find all of his released stuff [url="http://www.youtube.com/user/8bitduane#p/u"]here[/url], amidst various live Duane & BrandO songs.

The Earthbound one amused me a bit, but...ehhh, rap.

Yeah, I don't like rap either, but these guys have enough humor and originality, to give them a lot of respect from me.
