Any information greatly appreciated! :D

I don't believe it Jamms, you're pulling my leg :)  A thrasher like you enjoying cheap synthesized steel drums?  I won't believe it :)

And to answer your question, now I find the music pretty crappy :)

Having said that, there's a lot of music I enjoy that not too many other people do :)  But still, Monster Lair? :)

I mainly listen to death metal(when it comes to music by bands), but I still love Monster Lair's soundtrack and other music that isn't just empty pop or 'songs'(only a simple beat for aesthetics).

Monster Lair was one of, if NOT the first, games i ever played to death wheni first got my taste of the NEC world, and i played the hell out if. Being a musician myself, i apreciate many styles of talent, but metal will ALWAYS be my forte'. I could not deny the slappin' funk of the poppin bass, the ripping guitar solo's, the steel drums, and whatever else they could throw in for cool atmosphere in that game.

The game, and music have stuck with me to this day as my first memorable NEC experience. Heh....there are bigger thrashers out there than me. I have chilled out on alot of really hard stuff.

MONSTER LAIR BABY!

Hehe, well I will agree that Monster Lair is a pretty good game and the soundtrack does suit the game, however I will go on record as saying I will never listen to the music if I am not playing Monster Lair :)  I've always considered it one of the worst CD soundtracks for the system, next to Sim Earth of course :)

I'd say the same thing about R-Type Complete, except that I don't like even hearing the bgm in the game, think it's an awful fit and never play it because I hate the 'tunes' so much.

Of course, there are many others who can at least appreciate it, even if they don't love it. But my opinion of it is the same as Keranu's Lazer Dorks FFVII review.

I, as a musician, also love Monster Lair's music, in & out of the game!  It's not my favorite, but it's still great.  Frankly, if it weren't for video games.......well, & Wu-tang Clan(even though I'm not into them like I used to be :P ) I wouldn't appreciate other types of music!  And I wouldn't be a musician at all.  I would maybe be able to make a few simple hip hop tracks, though, I'll go on record to say, they're not always as simple as they seem.  Some things, & this goes for all music, can be so simple, but, so perfect.  And they don't always just come to your mind when coming up with a tune.  Sometimes they do, I'll suprise myself from time to time.  Anyays, a bit offtrack, my point is, I appreciate a plethora of styles, believe it! :D

Holy crap! Monster Lair's soundtrack is friggin' amazing. First, as mentioned, it *perfectly* fits the game (the music for each stage complements, even helps *define* the mood for each stage).

Second, even if some songs are pastiches, they have more heart than the muzak you here in a lot of games! Seriously. And since when has VGM ever elevated itself above muzak? Very rarely, my friends, very rarely.

And I don't want to sound like a broken-record, but I still can't believe the almost-universal hatred of the R-Type complete soundtrack. No need to discuss it here, though, since we can resurrect the old threads.

Perhaps I should go on record stating I, too, am a musician.  And it isn't necessarily the melody and tunes of Monster Lair I have a problem with, rather the arrangement and choice of horribly cheap sounding synths.  

I don't know what to tell you guys, I listen to the original Megaman 2 soundtrack every now and then as I consider it brilliant, but it's basically "beeps" and "boops" as it's NES hardware we're talking about here :)  However, I still consider Monster Lair's nice crisp 16-bit CD recording as being much inferior :)

As for R-type, I don't understand the hatred either.  There are a few tunes (stage 3, boss themes) that were done quite well.  I will agree the majority of stage tunes are pretty lame as all they did was remix the original tunes with, again, cheap synths :)

Maybe I have a problem with cheap synths in general, not necessarily Monster Lair :)

Anyway, if I showed my parents (both musicians as well) the soundtrack to Gate of Thunder, then the soundtrack to Monster Lair, there will be laughing :)  It really is pretty bad :)  At leat HuCards have an excuse for having "cheap sounding synths" :)
