UPDATE

It's on Bandcamp now. So you can listen to it easily and for free.

Should have done that from the beginning.

/UPDATE

My very first album and I'm going straight for the physical full-length release!

What is this album and why would I care about it?

It is an album of fantastic stories that are mostly inspired by games set to melodic death metal. You will care about this album if you like even just one of the following items: RPG stories, giant robots, drama, beautiful and melodic guitar solos, death vocals, crazy-ass drums, and, finally, OCR talent.

Exactly what OCR talent are we talking about here?

We got my legendary self as the composer of the album and the guitarist. Brandon Strader is singing, Furilas plays bass, Meteo Xavier contributed a synthesizer solo, Xarnax did a wonderful amen chorus, and to top it all off, it is mixed and mastered by Zircon.

OK. I'm convinced. Show me how to get a copy of the very first Zoltan album!

Search for Zoltan and/or First Fantasy on Spotify, or iTunes to get a digital copy. You can get a physical CD from CD Baby here.

You have to make an account to use CD Baby, though. Enjoy the album.

EDIT: Here are some samples.

Because that one was the announcement of the kickstarter. That's totally different from announcing the release. I felt it should be in a different thread.

Thanks, Refried! I'll use the link you so graciously provided. I'm glad you like it. So far the reception has been entirely positive. That is extremely pleasing.

Whoa. All this time I thought it said that I was the last person to make a comment in here. I had no idea that there was another person who's name started with "the legendary". Awesome. . . And now I will EAT YOU! Just kidding.

Thanks for checking out the album. Some of the songs were inspired by anime, some had completely original stories that I came up with, and others were inspired by games but only a bit. I think next time I want to keep it 100% about the games. Tracks 1, 4, and 9 do this the best. They are about FF Tactics, Alundra, and the Star Ocean series respectively.
